  • This. I'm getting very tired of the played out "lol this country is so fucking dumb why aren't people doing anything." Apathy. Its all due to apathy and having zero locus of control after having every one of the keys to power stripped away from us so it can concentrate in the hands of murderous ghouls.

    There's literally nothing any of us can do to stop this save a popular uprising, and even then it's pretty clear now that battle is something we need to fight and build over decades, not months. Decades that will continue to ravage the environment while we attempt to regain power.


  • This. I've been really thinking a lot about the last episode where Kushbomb talks about the ability of humans to conceptualize and organize themselves through the power of myth. Your average lib can't conceptualize the economic impact of Das Kapital but you can use PHUS to fundamentally change the myth of the United States to them and give them a narrative that can allow them to reconcile any nostalgic memories they have of America with understanding the power structures that have always been fundamentally at odds with the working people of the United States.

    Its a surefire way to have someone that may have at one point considered themselves a patriot to view acts of class struggle and solidarity as a fundamentally American value.
