THIS is why rethugs and their shady corporate donors want to do away with such things and never allow us to initiate rent control or universal health care. They give us, the people, real power.

The “American Dream”—the one that’s framed as a mortgage and car loan—is a trap. The real one is, we all have chances at the education, career, and creative life of our dreams, thanks in large part to the National Endowments for the Arts and Humanities, Social Security, and… 🥁 Medicare for all.

Debt and healthcare are the US capitalist meat grinder’s power over us. IT’s what keeps us from speaking out about abusive work situations and practices, and from holding our employers accountable on their environmental footprints

Not a lifetime of crushing debt on which one might perhaps succeed in paying the interest most of the time.

This is how it’s supposed to work, folks. A manageable minimum monthly payment that mostly scrapes away at the capital, and only 40K at the end of a Master’s degree, and a lifetime of satisfying (if not lucrative) music making.

🤣🤣🤣

The Robinsons accompanied by Dr. Smith 😳

From the same bunch that claims to be saving kids by criminalising abortion, miscarriage care, and gender affirming care. All of these actions will end lives. Let’s no longer pretend that’s not the whole idea.

Shareholding—the coercion of something for nothing—the charging of interest—is the root of all sorts of evil. It has us by the jugular without Social Security, and that is why Rethugs have always undermined it. The “National Debt” is largely owed to SS—our own money.

Finding and founding nonprofits and benefit corporations to do business with. And engaging in days like this on a regular and rolling basis.

There was never any such thing as free land, and the myth of self-sufficiency is a falsehood where employment if slavery or low wage labour is involved.

Racism and witch-hunts were purposefully fabricated to justify profit from other people’s forced labour and the theft of their land.

I feel like this kind of action is the best kind of resistance (though certainly not the only kind needed). Our fraudulent system of infinite profit is the deepest problem, and is what drives the atrocities of colonialism and patriarchy.

Pure gaslighting

Stopping and correcting for the unjust transfer of wealth, shoulda said.

The other classic narcissistic tactic is projection of one’s own bad behaviour onto one’s target. The only one gambling with WWIII is Mr. Fake News himself.
