Farming through the apocalypse in backwoods Maine. Leftist, not liberal. Rural crafts enthusiast, maker of things. Never enough time in a day
Not NAFO or Red/BlueMAGA tolerant. The purpose of a system is what it does. Electoral politics brought us here

A lot we were told about how our gov, laws, economy, etc was a lie. The real kicker comes when you realize the system isn't broken, it's working as designed. The difference between how we were told things work vs how they DO work is huge, intended to keep us playing rigged game like at a casino

Y’all. BE CAREFUL.

If you find yourself saying a fascist has a good point because they brought up an issue you care about, you should see that as a massive red flag that they’re trying to radicalize you and other people who think like you do.

It's not just your imagination. People act out of spite, and it's a defining feature of MAGA politics. They care more about hurting their "enemies" than helping themselves, and they always underestimate the blowback.

From the perspective of capital, "enslaved" is the most efficient thing a person can be. And, since our Federal Branch of Sabotage Destruction & Punishment is opposed to all other kinds of efficiency imaginable, I'd must conclude that it is enslavement that it means when it talks about efficiency.

If Democrats aren't willing to fight cloture, the easiest possible fight they will have since literally one single person has to dissent from the pack to succeed in not giving unanimous consent, they're signalling that they won't fight *any other time in any other way*.

I've said a few times they're as scared as I've seen them in some time so they're going to be trying everything they can to shut this sentiment down - it's not even about the hypocrisy, it's that cops are above all protectors of capital

It’s not enough to control everything about our lives and live in idle luxury off our labor—the rich demand adoration as well. But if people really understand their parasitic position in society, that’s out of the question.

People who insist that you use the proper channels to make change, have seized control of the proper channels.

90% of abortions take place in the first trimester, when the abortion pill is safe and inexpensive or even free. AidAccess dot org gives it out for free if you can’t afford the $120 cost.

So if Trump's admin eliminates most/all regulations and regulatory agencies, everything we buy will be of uncertain quality and safety. I'm inclined to think safety recalls might no longer be issued. Fun times in a Libertarian Dystopia

Meet your neighbors, organize your friends and communities, build resilience networks and protection for the vulnerable, and prepare to become ungovernable.
It’s getting tiresome seeing even the Guardian talk about the Trump win as a “blow for Democrats”.

It’s the end of US Democracy.

The Democrats might reform later like the German SPD; but currently this is the US version of 1933, and 1945 is a long way.

Poltical Zionism is a transnational criminal racketeering enterprise to overthrow Western governments and install a corporatist/fascist empire. Very similar to the 1930s Business Plot but on a much grander scale.

You can't be anti-racist and pro-Israel; they are mutually contradictory positions. Israel is an apartheid state, arguably the most racist society on this planet. If you support Israel you support racism, whether you admit this about yourself or not.

We need to go back to local. Collectively; as a species. I'm not saying we can't come together or enjoy certain benefits of globalization, but it has gone too far.

Do as much as you can locally before even going 30 minutes away.

This does not apply to education, go diversify your horizons

US fascism and plutocratic rule was here looooong before Trump entered politics. The left has been warning everyone for decades, but now that shit is hitting the fan, people are finally waking up. It only took the rise of MAGA, the collapse of Twitter, a liberal-backed genocide, and a 2nd Trump win.

In case anyone still doesn’t understand, the tech oligarchs are following in the footsteps of their industrialist predecessors and going full bore into antidemocratic authoritarianism.

Look around. Conventional political analysis obscures the truth. You’re in a class war. And it’s heating up.

To be a liberal is to look at a system that has created problems that threaten human civilisation and given rise to two waves of fascism and think it's basically perfect and just needs a few tweaks.

There's a reason why the government has tried to criminalize mutual aid like feeding the homeless. It's an incredibly powerful organizing tool. Food for thought if we another huge spike in food prices.
