Yep pretty much it seems that’s all we can do, which is why we haven’t been able to affect much change. We need revolutionary uprising and revolting, but that requires every oppressed person to be in solidarity on one united front but many of them are so brainwashed by the media which is genius at dividing people against each other. As long as they can keep the plebeians in-fighting and arguing with each other about stupid inconsequential things, the plebeians cannot rise up to revolution and revolt against the true oppressors.

“If you don’t earn money, you don’t deserve to live.”
This is how I interpreted it and it definitely feels true, that’s how capitalism treats us.

3·11 months agoThank goodness. Please don’t let the world flip inside-out.
Probably some programs like that do exist.
Ah yes thank you for understanding. I re-visited what I wrote & you’re right, it can be interpreted two different ways, and you’re right, I wrote it from a critical perspective, I despise what capitalism & the housing industry have done to us.
As far as me needing to escape my current living situation? I live in a brand new off-grid Mercedes Sprinter with solar panels & plumbing & refrigerator & convection oven. I can literally live anywhere I want without paying rent or mortgage, and I imagine most people would want to get out of THEIR situations to enjoy this type of freedom! I’m quite in bliss!

You said before deleting:
I’m sure every homeless person could have a home if they just tried harder! This isn’t the most inhumane, cruel system ever!
I’m literally homeless too (I live in a van in order to have freedom, autonomy, and owe nothing to landlords or mortgage companies), and I see the housing industry for what it is, it wants to drain nearly every dime out of everyone, exploiting everyone’s basic human need for shelter. It’s extortion and I have no desire to be a victim or slave to it.
Part of the debacle of giving homeless people free homes, would make everyone else wonder why TF we’re working so hard for 90% of our net income to be sucked away by the housing industry just so we can keep a basic roof over our heads.
You mean IF I DIDN’T WORK AT ALL, the government would GIVE me a FREE house?? If that were the case, people would decide that laziness is more rewarding than hard honest work.
This is why the government doesn’t give homes to homeless people. Although I read two days ago that in the USA there is a ratio of 27.4 empty houses per each homeless person.
But those houses must remain empty in the name of capitalism, for money-havers to do whatever they want with those houses. Anything but using it to house a needy, money-less person.
The fear of homelessness & starvation & suffering are what motivates everyone to keep working our asses off.
And after all that, any able-bodied people who still insist on sleeping & shitting on the streets & refusing to contribute to society & the economy, can be scooped up like kitty litter and dumped into for-profit prisons where they’ll be assigned jobs.
Work & service to others, is the rent we all pay for living on this planet.

Kim Jung Un oppresses & mistreats his people. It’s a fact. That’s literally ALL I’ve said. And if youre still bent on attacking me for stating that fact, then you’re probably some shill who’s on Kim Jung Un’s payroll.
Go back and undelete all my comments and quote everything I said that is “chauvinistic, racist, bigoted,” etc, or even any lies I told. I assure you that any sane person will find nothing there.
I have no idea what rule I could have possibly broken. Not allowed to mention North korea?
Okay there are only two rules in this community, “no excessive reposting” which I’m definitely not guilty of, and “be nice and civil.” What about my comment was not nice and civil? Stating an objective fact about North korea, as obvious as stating there are often clouds in the sky?
If my comments were removed because they think it wasn’t nice & civil, then NK definitely has its hands in this community.

Ah yes it can be interpreted multiple ways, I see your perspective 1) there are people who don’t need to work in order to earn money, they are the highest class of humans.
Then there are people who have to work to earn money, they are considered pitiful but still essential cogs in our economy,
then there are people who do not earn money and they are the ones who capitalism deems worthless.
