Wanna make one thing perfectly clear. Capitalism? NEEDS workers. Without us, they have NOTHING. Without our labour to exploit, they have NOTHING. Without our willingness to work for them, they have NOTHING. No power. Workers? Don't need billionaires. We just don't. Nothing about our lives is made better by there being wealth-hoarders greedily pursuing making Line Go Up. Nothing. All the innovations they pursue are about making their businesses more profitable. None are about making our lives better. Wages don't go up. Benefits don't go up. Nothing for us is going up. But their wealth? That's going up faster than ever. Time to start telling them no. Stop using their products. Stop giving them money. Buy local, where you can anymore. Support small business. Get off Facebook and Insta and Xitter and Bluesky and Threads and all the other money pits they've built to splash in. We need to starve the fuckers out. Get them to retreat to their underground bunkers, and PAVE THEM UNDER.

If you are someone who would go to Pride, and your local Pride celebration included a couple of early hours, in cooler temperatures with minimal environmental noise, maybe called "Quiet Pride", how would you respond? Boosts very welcome, thank you. Answers or comments in not-English also explicitly welcome.

Just a short one this time. If you're tempted to say "this isn't the America I know" about troops in the streets hunting native-born Americans...may I introduce you to the concept of the enslavers' patrols? That'd be yer native-born government violence against yer native-born Americans. Or do you consider people kidnapped and forced to work for nothing, brutalised and killed, not to be worthy enough Americans to count? Just...think a little about history...the history of what white people in government have done to Black people in America...before you pronounce it "so unlike us". You already know this stuff. Just keep it in your mind, huh? (Canadians, don't get up on your high horse either - 1837, we stopped enslaving people. Didn't mean we started treating them better. Look up "Ontario Sundown Town", and think carefully the next time you hear Gordon Lightfoot sing "Sundown".)
