Capitalists see almost everyone, ie poors, the same way conservatives see their out groups: less than human.
Id say their lead is over.
Im enjoying all the capitalist oligarchs losing their minds over Deepseek destroying the piles of money they were already counting in their heads. It’s not much, but it’s something.
Their unhinged need for growth/metastasis to to feed their ego scores is unquenchable and ending the world.
It’s tragic we won’t physically stop them via revolution. We are cowards that mistake this quiet slaughter for peace. The planet will have to do it for us, and take us and a lot of innocent surface life with them.
A non-disruptive protest is masturbation.
A protest is disruption.
That’s why protests in designated protest zones out of the eyelines and more importantly away from the profit operations of those being protested are an intentional and effective method of completely neutering protest.
We have protest in the US. It just doesn’t mean anything anymore.
No, not really.
I voted for Harris to try to prevent these horrors out of harm reduction.
But the Neoliberals haven’t given us anything to vote for for half a century.
Good cop neoliberals with affirmation ribbons/bad cop Fascists with scapegoats, both for human beings dying in the streets for the crime of no longer being able capitalist exploitation livestock in droves as a threat to laborers to produce for their shared donors.
A vote for democrats is a vote for quiet slaughter, a vote for Republicans is a vote for loud, braggadocious slaughter. We don’t get a vote for peace. We don’t get a vote on the economy. Only the social wedges that don’t meaningfully effect quarterly earnings expectations.
Luigi tried showing us who our shared enemy is, and it isn’t their revolving door middle managers in DC.
Remember, this loud stupid shit is meant to distract from the important shit.
I don’t respect my own nation enough anymore to care what we call locations. Nice to see other nations don’t respect our dictates either.
This is a good example of the “If you regulate/tax business, they’ll just leave and you’ll be sorry!” Ayn Rand fallacy.
All this means is that their business model was to gouge consumers, and being barred from gouging cheap internet for their poorest customers revealed that they were (and still are everywhere else) bad faith, dishonest, antisocial actors that have no interest in providing products and services for a reasonable margin.
Just as with any business that would exit a market, or billionaire that would leave the country to prevent taxation back into the commons that facilitated their wealth accumulation to begin with (a preliterate workforce, roads and utilities they disproportionately degrade with heavy use, etc) you demonstrate that you work against your own customers and your own people, so by all means, gtfo.
Our oligarchs want us to compete to the death for their ever dwindling relative to inflation and productivity scraps, but they’ve grown too powerful to tolerate competition themselves.
Not when they’ve gone to all the trouble of normalizing monopolies and duopolies at home.
Hurry up! We need moar economic metastasis!
This planet isn’t going to incinerate itself 🔥🔥🔥
To that I would say it’s just inhuman that we largely insist suffering people continue until the body they’re trapped in literally gives out. It’s a sad, pathetic, demeaning way to go, regardless of whether you can also afford groceries and meds.
I think any adult should be able to have a painless opt out option with a 30 day waiting period. We treat people’s lives as if they don’t own them to do with what they will. I don’t think it’s right to encourage or insist people who are breaking down to cling to their misery when there are painless options we refuse to implement.
It’s a bit of a bad joke really, we don’t care enough about one another to support one another materially tragically, but we also don’t want those people to offend the rules of our imaginary sky daddies. It’s perverse. We literally have more compassion for our pets living in pain.
That is just sad.
Our capitalist’s Greed, avarice, the desire to treat their countrymen as livestock so they can live as modern pharoahs on our back and the willingness to bribe their own regulators and capture the government with their capital (power) they’re only supposed to have a single vote in is why the government treats us as livestock.
It’s ridiculous you think China made our owner class act as murderous sociopaths in order to amass their ridiculous hoards.
The CCP had nothing to do with our for profit healthcare insurance sector murdering their own customers, our citizens with the approval of both parties, when they become inconvenient to private profit as just one of countless examples. China has their own sins, that isn’t one of them.
We are the primary vector destabilizing governments and waging wars to expand our greed disease around the world to keep resources and markets open to our capitalist’s exploitation because it’s never fucking enough. No one forced us into that. Our owners just demanded moar.
If you want Americans to be loyal, establish social and economic equity. Until then, don’t expect the tortured masses to thank or appreciate their torturers, let alone have loyalty to them. That’s just Stockholm syndrome.
Exit, which is still preferable to what we do with most elderly in the states. I used to deliver to nursing homes for 10 years all day every day, educating patients on medical devices. I have seen and been informed first hand by too many to count, death is better. The happiest people in them have lost too many faculties to hold a conversation.
You don’t want to live in even a “nice” home with any marbles still rolling around. The garbage to nice ratio is 10 to 1, and even most of the studious savers who didn’t actually live don’t get the nice ones with tapestries and French chefs, those are for the elder exploiters.
There are almost no happy people in those places, the best you see are some quivering brave faces that break 5 minutes into someone from the outside engaging with them. I came to think of them as living mausoleums as I went through their halls.
I consider the domestic powers that be to be hostile to people of low net worth, aka most of the people they govern, so there’s that.
When your own society treats you like a disposable capital battery that will gladly kill you when it finally breaks you, like by denying your necessary healthcare in a vast insurance confidence scheme, it’s strange to expect allegiance.
The United States is very clear that we’re on our own, “free” to die in the streets. I find it strange that some Americans take offense to other Americans taking their business elsewhere.
American capitalists would tell you if you don’t spend your life eating cat food in a van to save for retirement on a peasant’s wage then you’re “irresponsible.”
You know, the whole "you had a latte?! You ate avacado toast?! Of course you deserve to burn in the fires of elder poverty!"blame their own victims thing, as they spend 6k on a bottle of wine.
Life past 60 seems has always been a very strange priority to sacrifice for to me, at least if you can only afford to either live today or subsist today and save for life past 60, which has basically become the choice for most here in the US as most wages don’t allow for both, and many for either.
Let’s assume you make it there having not gotten hit by a bus or killed by cancer or your healthcare insurance confidence scheme provider.
You’ve literally saved up so you could enjoy life when your senses are failing you, your mind is growing dull and confused, your own frail body is betraying you in new ways constantly, and your time is largely spent managing the ever growing list of symptoms building up to your impending death.
Sure there are exceptions, people who remain verile and sharp into their seventies, but they are not the rule. That’s like planning your life around a future lottery win.
Live for today, especially if you’re into your 30s or beyond. Better to have memories of living when you could in the shitty home with bad food then having memories of working and saving in the good home with the decent food your failing taste buds can’t really even appreciate anymore.
Oh gee I hope I get to live long enough to piss myself involuntarily again! Maybe I’ll finally take that cruise so I can soil myself in style and stay in my cabin because my body can’t regulate it’s own heat efficiently anymore!
You forgot the fact that the 1% keep us poorly educated and propagandized against our own interests on purpose.
We’re so fucking stupid as a result, that Americans believe the following unironically:
