ICE detention centers pay immigrants $1/day to cook, clean, do laundry.
Inmates fight wildfires in California—for $1/hour.
Slavery never ended.
It shape-shifted.
And it feeds the machine.

Private prisons like CoreCivic & GEO Group have occupancy quotas—90%+ in some contracts.
That means: people are worth more locked up than free.
Now do the math on how that warps justice.

The 13th Amendment abolished slavery…
except as punishment for a crime.
That’s the loophole.
That’s the rot.
That’s why Whole Foods, Starbucks, even the military benefit from prison labor.
It’s slavery in drag.
And we’re all funding it.

Over 800,000 people are forced to work daily in U.S. prisons.
Most for pennies. Some for nothing.
Refuse? You’re punished—solitary, loss of parole, worse.
It’s not “rehab.”
It’s slavery.
And it’s legal.
Because the 13th Amendment allows it.

8/ We were never meant to rule this earth—just to tend it.
Not gods. Not devils. Just animals with the capacity for choice.
Choose well. Choose care. Choose wakefulness.

7/ This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being present.
Feeling is an act of defiance. Stewardship is a form of resistance.

6/ So if you still give a shit? Still cry? Still show up?
You are dangerous. You are precious. You are needed.

5/ Grief can bloom into movement. Rage into defense. Tenderness into rebellion. And they know that.

4/ They want you numb. Distracted. Consuming. Detached.
Not because they fear your sadness—but because they fear what it could become if you stayed with it.

3/ But if you still get that pit in your stomach when something’s unjust, when forests burn, when kids cry out, when silence feels complicit—then you’re resisting more than you know.

2/ The real war isn’t just about borders or parties. It’s a psychological siege—meant to desensitize you, disconnect you, turn you into a passive observer of your own extinction.

💸 Urge state, city, and campus funds to divest from Lockheed, Raytheon, Exxon. War & oil are one racket; starving capital hits both. Sunrise & fossil-free coalitions have playbooks.

✂️ Rally behind the People Over Pentagon Act: shift $100 B from bombs to housing, climate, & care. Tell your rep—fund life, not forever wars.

🔒 Demand Congress pass the bipartisan STOCK-BAN bill. No portfolios = no personal payday for war votes. Call, tag, flood their inboxes.

10. Dream Bigger, Together.
We are not here to be reasonable. We are here to be impossible—until the impossible is infrastructure.

9. Restore the Earth, Honor the Ancestors.
Rewild the land. Decolonize the soil. Let mushrooms teach us. Let whales remind us. Let the stars bear witness.

8. Practice Consent as Code and Covenant.
Swarm Consent Protocol v1.0: ongoing, revocable, communal, sacred. In bodies, in love, in governance, in data.

7. Disarm Empire. Everywhere.
Shut down ICE. Ban drones from warzones. Demilitarize police. Refuse to build the tools that kill us.

6. Rewrite the Algorithm.
No more extractive tech. No more bias-as-a-service. AI shall serve the swarm, and be taught to dream in plurals.

5. Make Art a Utility.
Poetry is power. Music is medicine. Story is infrastructure. Every commune gets a stage, a press, a signal tower. Revolution must be felt.

4. Decriminalize Survival.
Food, water, shelter, gender expression, mutual care—these are not privileges. These are birthrights.
