Went to Burger King recently. About $18 for the burger, fries, and medium drink.
Maaaaaaaan.
I don’t know what we’re waiting for. Who the fuck are we waiting on? A YouTube video essay? Some podcast rant?
It’s apparent that not even legal confirmation on how the world is owned by the few was enough.
No single politician can change a system where everyone is financially inclined to fuck over everyone else.
Why are faceless corporations running our cities and towns? Why are we okay with it?
More importantly why aren’t we enraged that they stole our future from us?
Is literally no one extremely depressed that their home town has 3 fucking Starbucks, 3 McDonald’s, 2 Jack in the boxes and is literally unwalkable??? I can’t with this reality. It’s nothing but strip malls.
I don’t want to be a part of this disgusting shit.
Learn to build, DIY everything, make everything, reject capitalism hole-cloth. Build things for your friends in exchange for goods and services. Exchange labor. Shop at farm stands, and spend on only essentials and the tools for creation. Play an instrument. Go for walks.
Learning to reject capitalism starts small.
While I agree, building materials ain't free....
