It is a no brainer that the place that we grew up and the country that we born is fucked up.

Why is that?

Would this feel less painful if we didn't have borders? Free limits, to any region, would make us realize that everywhere is fucked up?

How do we get out of this shit?

Worldwide Socialist revolution. Creating a society hostile to the accumulation of wealth, where all means of production are controlled by the workers.

Socialism. Socialist countries are already making tremendous strides for their people, especially when compared to how heavily sanctioned they are and other struggles. To get to socialism, we need to educate ourselves, agitate among the people, and organize!

If you want somewhere to start, I wrote an introductory Marxist-Leninist reading list.

Fire. Lots and lots of fire.

Start by banning religion, then start taxing everyone fairly including companies. Then just be nice to everyone.

[โ€“] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 6 points 5 days ago

Banning religion has never been a good way to deal with it, historically. Secondly, the idea that taxation will solve the inherent contradictions within capitalism is wrong, especially when we live in the era of dying imperialism.

You want chaos? This has the opposite effect
