    “So long as I’m free to exploit you into subsistence, you’re free to die in the gutter when you’re too broken to produce value for me!”

    -The capitalists destroying us and the habitability of the world for any future humans, solely to run up their ego scores.

      We all sit back and act like we know how to fix it all but really we don’t. What we do know, and what we need everyone to understand, this ain’t it. Everything else we are capable of improving given the flexibility to make nessisary change and allocating the resources to appropriate people who have real philosophies and experience to make the change. Getting everyone on board needs to happen first.

      How? How? How?

      Stop listening. Stop listening to the internet. Stop listening to cable TV. If someone says nothing is wrong and nothing needs to change they are benefiting from the purposefully broken system. Stop listening.

      Listen to your neighbor. Listen to the teachers. Listen to community’s. Once we can do all that. Then we need to unite all communities under the common goal of providing rest. The builders have built. The creatives have created. The workers have worked. Now they need to rest. They need to heal. They need to raise children who know what a bright future looks like so they can appreciate this life and their own humanity.

      Now, everyone panic and tune out because sadly, I’ve given you an impossible task and you will never overcome your own programming.

              Then, that social movement (organization) puts forth it’s own candidate(s) to displace the corrupt government.

                  There is a reason Marxists promote reading history and philosophical theory; because the class struggle has been going on for a long time, and there is much we can learn about our current situation from those that wrote about their experiences in the past.

                    The issue was how to unite all communities under the common goal of providing rest, not how to learn while suffering. Everyone already knows how to do that. You have nothing to offer.
