- Comment on You wanted the secret to getting rich? Here it is 6 days ago:
Henry Ford still underpaid people for their labor. That is the fundamental key to capitalism. Profit is surplus labor that capitalists steal from laborers.
- Comment on Plant Slurs 2 weeks ago:
Pampas grass is actually super invasive in certain areas (like all of California).
- Comment on Plant Slurs 2 weeks ago:
The idea of “weeds” is a colonialist construct.

I learned about this through an interview with a PA member on Rev Left Radio: …libsyn.com/palestine-action-direct-action-agains…
- Comment on Welcome to the Labour police state 3 weeks ago:
Sabotaging the tools of genocide should be supported by everyone who isn’t a monster.
- Comment on Welcome to the Labour police state 3 weeks ago:
Their latest action was against the planes, but they have actually been extraordinarily successful at damaging the economic machine behind the genocide through targeted and sustained sabotage campaigns against Elbit Systems weapons manufacturer and their supporters, like Barclays Bank. They have already forced the closure of two weapons factories and forced Barclays to divest. It is most likely this sustained campaign that is the real reason for the terrorist designation, though the action at Brize Norton was probably the straw that broke the camel’s back.
- Comment on Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4? 3 weeks ago:
If you want to be effective at changing the system, killing random ICE Nazis won’t do it. Everyone here is advocating peaceful protest, but that also won’t do it - or at least, not by itself.
Instead, consider direct action - sabotage of the means of production that prop up the fascist state.

Isn’t the whole point of civilization to get away from the tyranny of men with sharp sticks? We can’t let the crimes of our ancestors justify modern crimes.

You know there are people out there who are actually getting off their couch and fighting?Active revolution isn’t for everyone, but you don’t have to keep normalizing laziness and cowardice. You can instead use your voice to encourage action.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders says that if AI makes us so productive, we should get a 4-day work week 5 weeks ago:
Well yes, ghouls were the ones who invented capitalism, but before that we had feudalism, which was even more ghoulish - but guess what, we don’t go around drawing and quartering criminals anymore, so it looks like I’m right. Change the system, change humanity.
- Comment on Bernie Sanders says that if AI makes us so productive, we should get a 4-day work week 5 weeks ago:
Nah it’s just that the socio-economic system we’re stuck with that literally incentivizes ghoulish behavior that causes suffering. Change the system, change humanity.

All I want is a party by and for the people.
Sounds like you’d be interested in Marxism then.
