Yes, I know it's not Tuesday.
It's an attention getting artifice.
Don't freak out, you are still in the right reality, presumably.
As long as we workers continue to fill up the shelves, the shelves will be full.
It doesn't matter if the banking system collapses as long as the workers continue to feed the machine.
We don't need Jeff to call the shots, we let big data keep us efficient, Jeff can get on the line and fulfill his own orders.
If we followed this path, most of us could stop working, if we wanted to, and all of us can find work that is agreeable to us.
Instead of 90% of the value of our labor going into the black hole that is the various love interests of the billionaires, it goes to me and you.
Instead of massive 'private' fortunes, we all get access to anything we need to continue whatever work and hobbies we chase.
We already carry the bums, we just multiply their inefficiency by adding bureaucrats to manage it all, and you can't get one of those without the full panalopy of benefits.
What you have to realize, dear worker, is that you get less than 10% of the value that your labors create, the system collapses if you were to get more.
You know the last thing a billionaire wants?
Collapsing economic systems.
They really hate those.
Absent your labor multiplying their money, the whole shebang shuts down, but only for them, if we keep working.
On any given Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, we can shut this whole dystopia down, and reset the wage scales.
In fact, if we don't want to become abject slaves, we will have to shut this crap down to free ourselves.
Sadly, the various exitways have been intentionally obscured by the esoterics that you know nothing about.
You can't know what you don't know, you can know that you don't know it, but only if you are already aware of where it might be hidden.
If you have no clue it exists, doesn't mean it isn't out there, just that you don't know.
Chase yourself around that rat race for awhile, and you will see a portion of what I deal with just to bring these banal daily posts to your feed, daily.
Woe is my first world problems.
Have a perfectly peaceful day, eh?
In wondering how Albert Camus died. He wasn't very old, judging by those dates.
I'm guessing the same way they killed Janice Joplin, Jim Morrison, and Jimmy Hendrix, but I don't have any supporting references for that.
He was young, and becoming influential through his intellectual prowess, they hate those the most.
I am trying to free myself from the system. Not easy and it won't go in one swoosh. One needs money, after all, and as long as I am not in the situation to replace my current source of income into a future source of income (it can be different and not only money based), I need time. And work related people. These people I have not around me. I lived and worked within a lifestyle which made me "independent", which means, not in close cooperation with others like me, because I was the "other" and not like those who already started to off-grid themselves, so to speak. I did not hate my life, yet I already started to change slowly. Now it has become all the more dramatic.
It's true what you say above. The thing is that not all people at once are able to put down their works. If I am not able to, how can I expect that from others? But the time is there to think more deeply and to be more present in what decisions are to be made.
I am an anarchist by heart, or better: I recently became one.
The question remains in which particular way "the exits" can be used for ones personal situation. How do you do it? How is/was your reaction towards those emperors you certainly have encountered yourself?
Step one was for me not to bend to the mask mandate in one of the institutions I work for as a free lancer. She fired me. Before, she told me all the compromises and requirements I would have to give my signature to. Which I said "No" to. Now I am standing on only one leg financially and soon this will be the end for the other leg too (out of bureaucratic and insurance reasons). After that, I will have no income and I won't apply for social welfare. I've been there and I don't want to go back.
It will be interesting times for me ahead.
Greetings to you!
Yes, some transition period will be necessary.
I'd suggest that if you have a job that must be done after the change over, once you train a replacement, and they are producing what you used to produce, then you are free to move about.
This book gives actual numbers, and this book gives a fictional outline.
This short story gives an intermediary outline of what a transition to full communism could look like.
Being new to anarchism, you might like to read the book that launched the modern conversation.
These authors have written quite extensively on the subject.
Escaping is near impossible without more of us in the population.
Until we can supply all the goods we'd need, we are trapped in the crapitalust system by the willful ignorance of those around us.
Good luck getting trained morons to read a book.
There is no need to burn them when folks don't read them.
They can be made freely available on the interwebz because of this, lucky for us.
Escaping or freeing is something different in my eyes. A full escape seems to be impossible. For we all depend on each other and I guess people are scared to become outcasts. For a good reason, as it seems. So, it's more of an art to be part of the system, yet to not let it take everything out of and from you. There is no pure homogency but differences when it comes to humans. Which is good. If we were all homogenized, that would actually be truly horrific and terrible. But we aren't and never will.
Yes, lucky for us having unusual inspirations. Thank you for putting up more of them.
LOL, yeah no need for burning books.
Anarchy is always temporary. Socialism and communism is evil. At least in a capitalist society, one has the opportunity to increase their wealth, and therefore, ease of life.
And ... ? What do you want to express to me? I am not sure how to react to your comment ...
