We already have an economy based on free stuff, only it’s all going to the landlord class and the 0.01%. I’m just saying what if we gave all that money back at once?
Look all I’m saying is, think about it. I know we’ve been told it’s impossible, but it’s just as possible as anything else. Humans invented debt. It didn’t exist beforehand. We just started believing in it. We can stop believing in it. Seems really good. Don’t be afraid.
Somebody’s already paying for all the free stuff. It’s all of us.
Where I Live, Nobody Cares About Anybody But Themselves
I’m from West MI and I can attest that the proud lack of regard for human life is quite normal here. 800,000 have died in the US—1 in 100 elderly. Schools and hospitals here are near the breaking point. He says caring makes you out of touch.
The Atlantic should be ashamed.
He should be ashamed, too, but he won’t be. He fully expects to not only be permitted to go on sharing his community’s selfish degeneracy, but to be preferentially accommodated. He thinks caring is for urban snobs.
In the 1950s and 60s, municipalities started to integrate their public swimming pools, in part due to legal mandates, in part because of the fact that segregation is cruel and unjust, and people have always known that, no matter what people say now about “a different time.”
So, municipalities—whether voluntarily or not—made public spaces available to everybody. A simple thing. A good thing. The right thing.
What happened was this: white people violently rioted.
The fascist, white supremacist political party Republican that works nearby is trying to end abortion rights, marriage equality, the struggle against institutionalized racism and poverty, and any hope of an equal, pluralistic modern society.
You can laugh at these pathetic men, and probably you should, but you should also realize that the most powerful political party in our country, seemingly able to control public policy in or out of power, with 35%-40% support, acts primarily to support their point of view.
Here's what I want people to understand about the marching Nazis:
They believe society is the preferential property of white people above all others. They are supremacists.
Our political and social systems are oriented to accommodate their point of view.
white conservatives think that what the 2nd amendment guarantees is not just the right for white people to bear arms, but the inviolable right for white people to be *presumed safe* while bearing arms, by both civilians and authorities, both before and after any killings
The suspect is a male, age 21 years, armed with several rifles and at least one handgun. Seven are dead, three others injured; authorities seek the gunman to find out if he is white, and, if so, what the dead did to deserve it, or perhaps how bad of a day he was having.
And yet so many 2nd amendment people are currently trying to overthrow the constitution, and shooting and threatening to shoot Black Lives Matter and other protesters who demand we followed it for the first time in the nation's history, it's weird.
