    my brother in christ, people are already fighting back, hard. the fact msm doesn’t show it should be telling for anyone paying half attention, most lack of knowledge about most successful action is carefully engineered too.

    i’m assuming you are from the western imperial core, and that’s why you don’t see it, but if you are not it’s just a matter of joining them and start seeing for yourself. history shows again and again in a very straightforward and concrete way our lives improve quite a bunch every time we push back against capitalism. removing capitalism removes the systemic incentive for being an asshole.

    i’ll say it again because it’s worth drilling into: it’s not about the character of individuals but how the system is collectively set up. mistakes and assholes and all manner of contradictions will always exist, a society where they are the ruling class doesn’t have to.

      Lol you shouldn’t assume too much about me because you have no idea what I’ve done to fight back. Let me tell you it’s a lot. I’ve met world leaders from all sorts of countries that have all sorts of systems they all used me. I admire you’re ideological commitment but I just don’t have that anymore sorry.

      Edit:

      Anyways Peter Thiel was near my house, I told some of the “hardcore woke leftists” where he was they could of gone and shot him. They didn’t do shit.

        what have you done to fight back? are you unionized? if you know where thiel lives my assumption you are from the imperial core probably holds, right? it’s harder and people are much less committed. western marxism is much less effective, and systemic change won’t come from just one person working for a few years.

        though that’s not really how it works in the first place, we ain’t going to end capitalism by luigi mangioning a few random billionaires. it historically takes a lot of sweat tears and blood and that should be expected.

          Lol I can’t get work because the bourgeoise in my country hate me. They won’t even let me work. I can assure you though that enough powerful people know exactly what I did. The only reason I’m still alive is because I was so useful. I don’t need to prove myself to you.

          The country I live in already has unions 🙄 they have the same problems that unions in all bourgeoise countries have.

          I’m a conceptual artist, I’ve done so much fucking shit you probably wouldn’t believe me if I told you. I’ve had my phone tapped since and been watched by various intelligence agencies since I was fucking 15 partially because of my dads job and because of the fancy ass schools I went to because of his job, and I’d tell all the sons and daughters of millionaires and billionaires that I’m a communist. I don’t think I can even go to the United States and I don’t want to try.

            it’s not about proving yourself to me or anyone, i’m just trying to understand.

            you are not forced to take on arms and murder people and work 24-7 for abolishing capital. most people’s can’t, which is why you or most anyone else won’t break into peter thiel’s house to kill him unless very specific conditions are met. the sentiment is clearly there though.

            turns out real socialism works very differently than that, much more like helping your fellows and building community.

            and yes, i know exactly how it feels not to even be able to find work for who i am. but our only real obligation is to persist.

              Look I don’t know who we is, because so far every one I’ve met has used me to make money then discarded me when I wasn’t useful anymore that includes leftists. The only reason I’m still alive is because the leeches hope they can make even more money off of me or I’ll come up with even more cool ideas for them. The North Koreans are the only ones who are kinda cool.

                your story is strange, but it sounds like you need to find your place in the world before finding your way through trying to change it. which is ok, i need to find a bunch of stuff for myself too. all humans are fallible and political leaning is just a piece of the puzzle when it comes to that.

                  Lol, as I said if I told you half the shit I’ve done you wouldnt believe me, I know my place in the world and I’ve already changed it more than most people ever will.

                    then what is the problem? why resignate yourself to a life of suffering and the possible extiction of the human race, when so many people are still out there trying to make things less bad?

                    i actually want to hear about half the shit you’ve done.
