: I know that "Mutual Aid" is the popular buzzword now. But it still has to be viewed in the context of Capitalism; under which it exists. If it's not part of an overall program to destroy Capitalism, it's just repackaged "charity"; no matter what you call it! #YouPlayTooMuch 🚫

: Far too many Activists are using "Mutual Aid" as a loop-hole for Personal Gain; and the Oppressed are cheerleading the effort(s). We can't be this silly all of our lives! 🤦🏾♂️
: "Mutual Aid" under continued Capitalist exploitation is placing a Band-Aid on a bullet wound. The "Mutual Aid" still has to be used within the confines of Capitalism. No independent anti-Capitalist Economic Infrastructure is being built from most "Mutual Aid" efforts!
: You say "Mutual Aid" to me, and I'm looking for a resource pool held by an accountability Team or Board to review each case & ensure that the needs are being met. When I see a Lone Ranger putting up his or her personal CashApp for "Mutual Aid," my antenna go up! 🚩
: In this age of Capitalist exploitation and scamming for personal enrichment, we should be doing everything possible to put the Oppressed at ease; so that our efforts [& we may have great intentions] don't get called into question because we appear to be on a money-grab! 🤔
