"GET OFF THE ROAD!", You Say?

"GET OFF THE ROAD!", you say?

Well if it's called that, then why are you droaving a cahr on it instead of roading a skapedord like me is? Checkmate, loser.

Yes, it's important to be mindful of other's needs! Also:

- Cars are inaccessible to many people for medical or financial reasons. My best friend is not eligible for a license, and is not able to work most jobs. There's a reason for the strong history of disabled people fighting for mass transit access.

- Cars and their infrastructure are responsible for 25% of the emissions that are quickly eroding our ability to exist on Earth.

Which is why I believe that hating the machines themselves is both reasonable and necessary.

It's not that I hate cars, I do see them as a very useful tool for those not living in cities or just non-able bodied folk. But the amount of them in urban really pisses me off. You can't walk anymore.

[On the capitalism cooking show]

"What you really want is to broil that planet long enough that the civilization falls right off the bone. See how tender and systemically vulnerable that society is? That's good stuff right there"

Profit is the passive income skimmed off the top by a capitalist, by using the power of their ownership to direct money. If workers own the producion and make money from it and keep it, that's just their income.

I fucking hate this "capitalism is when you make money, the more money you make, the more capitalism it is" mindset people have gotten. No, an artist selling their own work is not them engaging in capitalism, it's literally a worker owning their own means of production.

Remember capitalism is someone profiting off of someone else's labor though owning capital. It is not simply the act of profiting at all.

That's hardly a certainty. Dollar dominance allows the US to sustain a huge imbalance of imports, which helps keep the treats flowing to the ruling class. If the stream of exploitated foreign workers dries up, the next place the ruling class will look is to intensify the exploitation of domestic workers. The economic turmoil from the US losing its hegemony might present an opportunity to advance workers' rights, but it sure as hell doesn't guarantee that it will happen.

America Has Spent an Astounding $113 Billion on the War in Ukraine

“We could do it forever,” Brookings Institution fellow Michael O’Hanlon told The Washington Post about the rate of funding and support for U

"We could do it forever" says Michael O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution, "it's not economically unsustainable, but it's probably politically unsustainable."

Sickening words from Brookings Institution Political Elites who think wasting $113 Billion is a great deal for Americans, even as the govt offers only $700 a person to the handful of survivors of the Lahaina Wildfires, even after losing their homes, cars, jobs, pets, personal and sentimental items, and even their entire families. It was yet another easily preventable, predictable disaster our government did nothing to prevent, and is actively opening the door to giant corporations to rape the resources of Maui and use the disaster to gentrify the island and displace Working Class Natives.

Meanwhile, our fully corrupt Political Elite brag about the destruction of Ukraine, claiming it's the best deal in history to have tens of thousands of Ukrainians dying so America can weaken its adversary Russia.

However, anyone taking one look at the current Geopolitical situation can see the rise of a Multipolar world, with rising Powers aligning to undermine US imperialism.

As these BRICS countries and their allies integrate economically, and as that integration increasingly degrades US Dollar dominance, US debts will begin to result in stubbornly high inflation that cannot be stifled using Washington's traditional tools of raising interest rates and stifling Working and Middle Class demand.

The American people will take the hit as Political Elites in the US refuse to subsidize Workers, guarantee them jobs, or raise the minimum wage to keep up with inflation.

But in the long run, this is good even for US Workers. The degradation of US Dollar dominance will mean US legislators will eventually have to begin to live within their means. Profligate spending on Military bases all across the globe and maintaining Global Empire will become next to impossible, and money can begin to return to the US to be invested at home instead of for foreign wars that only help US Capitalist Elites at the expense of Working people.

🔥🔥 **SUMMER PRO TIP** 🔥🔥

It's not the heat that gets you, it's the burning fury of knowing that something could be done about it, but the systems of power that govern us choose self destruction instead
