We can throw grenades at the people crushing machine. We can band together and try to get away from it. We can run face first at it and jam it till it breaks. We can jam it with our clothes. We can fuck up the factory. Giving up doesn't help anyone.

We can cause revolution. Maybe you can't because you're a liberal but at least us leftists can.

In reference to this post: https://www.tumblr.com/never-forget-viva-la-pluto/733556484079796224/some-idiot-on-these-posts-lesser-of-two-evils-is

So listen up,

You can't blow up the machine without hurting the common folk you are meant to be fighting for.

The suggestions you made all result in numerous people dying.

1)Throw grenades at the united states capitalism system.

Okay, let's do it. Throw a grenade. Can you get access to grenades? Do you think your little group of friends with a bunch of grenades would be able to get your little grenades anywhere close to a millionaire lawmaker in congress or the white house or corrupt police stations or billionaire villas etc? You wouldn't even get close enough to make a difference. You and all your little buddies just get charged with attempted murder and you go to jail for life, having helped 0 people in the end, fixed nothing.

How do I know? Because if it were that easy, we would have done it by now. YOU would have done it by now.

2)Band together and try to get away from it.

Who gets to leave? Not all of us can leave. I currently can't walk because I have a painful disability, but I'm lucky, my pain will only last a few more days and I can go then, so as long as I'm there when the...train arrives? What? What's the plan for that? Who will drive that train to get you there? They will have to work the whole time you are evacuating everyone who can leave. Where are we going that is free from capitalism,huh? Fucking space!?! Can you get there? I can't.

And how should we band together and leave? Will you give all your money to that needy family so they can start over somewhere else? What of you then? Will you stay in this human right hell hole with no money at all for that family to be free. But they have friends and relatives they don't want to leave. Will you pay for them too? Oh wait! YOU CANT, because you too are living in this hell.

You can't leave or you WOULD HAVE ALREADY!

3) Run head first into the people eating machine and jam it.

Our system is a people crushing machine. It is so good at crushing people, it would take a VERY large number of people dying to get the USA to bail on capitalism and fix this shit(especially bc a large number of people dying is beneficial for the economy and thus rich assholes making laws that kill people are able to better fill their pockets).

There is no parent in this country that works 60 hrs a week so their child doesn't starve that would NOT take this deal for a chance to save their child's life.

Some have, because life insurance scams are usually a desperate act and a very real thing, but you only have to wait a few years. https://www.valuepenguin.com/life-insurance-suicide#covered

What you are suggesting we do to fix the problem is being attempted as we speak, but the machine just gets better at tricking people that jumping into the machine is a good idea.

4) We can jam it with our clothes/earthly possessions.

I mean...we can but "I can only afford food and shelter this month and Christmas is coming up and my son has a disability that makes it so he can't eat most foods so I wanted to get him something other than rice and kimchi, potatoes and lettuce. Like a gluten free roll. They are so much more expensive. Reg bread is 2 dollars, gluten free bread is 7 dollars and is smaller."- My mother circa 2018

If we thought that sacrificing our possessions to the almighty machine would keep us from dying, we WOULD HAVE DONE IT ALREADY! There are people who have sold everything they own to afford medication as simple as insulin! But once you have done that you are homeless and they have to sleep closer to the people crushing machine than anyone else!

5)We can blow up the factory.

Okay, I don't know what you thought the factory was in terms of the metaphor I used, but the factory is the United States, ya know the place where I assume we both reside.

Should we blow it up? The whole thing? Like, both of us? And everyone we know who lives in this country? Their pets too? All the plants and animals that live in this factory don't matter? Peoples kids are in this factory right?

This one is one that people have tried a few times and people don't generally suggest this one bc they are usually killed, or charged with domestic terrorism, and those people are the ones that stormed the capital and tried to kill Gretchen Whitmar. Ya know?... white supremacists.

You say giving up doesn't help anyone, and you are right.

I've not given up, I'm voting so Gretchen Whitmar's work doesn't get undone the second she leaves. I am buying from local business and boycotting poor ethics as much as I can(again, not a ton of food options for me and I can only afford so much). I am at as many protests that I can be(again, I can't walk right now bc disability). I vote for whomever I think won't actively try to kill me and others like me so I will be alive to help others and send that money to the people who need it more than I do. I help out in my community, I cuss out the racist animal control guy, and I don't tell the cops shit when they come to my door asking about my neighbors.

I haven't given up, but if you think risking countless lives by blowing up the states and starting over is the answer, then you certainly have.

There isn't going to be a damned revolution, because if it made things better we would have done it already!!!

We have a two party system, and that system isn't going to end any time soon, so do what you can to HELP EACH OTHER!

It helps save people's lives to vote blue. It helps to save people's lives to look away when you see someone stealing food. It helps to click those buttons and understand that it's never going to be as simple as a waiting until the perfect candidate. Biden sucks, but the alternative is worse. We have this discussion every election, if the topic wasn't the Gaza it would be something else. In 2020 it was victims of police brutality during BLM protests. Using victims of a genocide or white supremacy as your reason to burn everything down or blow everything up is wrong.

If we had another option, I assure you, the desperate people of the United States would have done it already. The COMPASSIONATE people of the United states would have done it already. It is a fact that someone is going to win that election, and if you don't vote, it will be a republican and they want the machine to be faster at killing people. For now we play the extremely, perhaps perpetual, long game and we protest its wrongdoings.

And we don't give up.

I kid you not that I dreamt of Folly/Dream parasite tonight

don't remember what the dream was about, i just remember she was in a rock and we talked about something

here's my bad reconstruction of the dream

[tharmyof2]

people on tcc who larp as nazis with minimum knowledge of politics and history are so corny like motherfucker what are you TALKING ABOUT

[tulipe-rose]

atsushi.. oh dear.. Fyodor must've been so disgusted by it because it possibly reminded him of himself wayyyyy back maybe??

[jenny-from-the-bau]

Y'all ever watch youtube videos about something and agree with it and then the person says something so like ableist or transphobic or they rag on the person for being sensitive to identities and you're like "oh... we dislike the same person, but for very different reasons"

[rabbid-rabbitt]

i try to be compassionate and understanding to radqueers because they are all very mentally unwell and mostly minors but if i see one more transprogrammer or transtorturer im gonna start posting detailed trauma of what its like to actually be one /not serious

you know when vegans or vegetarians try to change your mind about eating meat by saying that if you had to butcher an animal yourself you couldnt do it and that you're only comfortable with eating meat because ur not the one having to kill animals well i dont really understand that.i love looking at images of butchered or dead animals with their raw insides and such it is very captivating to me.whenever i go to the butcher and they have those lamb or goat carcasses hanging from the ceiling i spend minutes looking at them there is something so fascinating about them to me...idk

[nanjokei]

vocaloid fans are so picky and choosey about who to hate on they will rightfully strike steampianist but if you bring up the abuse allegations (i choose my words carefully) against maretu they will go ITS NOT TRUEEEE!!! (if there's nothing to it why the fuck did he apologize then disappear for 8 months) and if you bring up the kikuo cp thing they will go HE SAID IT WAS A STORY ABOUT BULLYINGGG!! (and you fucking believe him? did you go see it for yourself? also theres no fucking excuse in the world for that in any context)

i mean. you could pirate their music and not comment about their existences online if the music is so crazy impactful to you. whatever. shit is literally on mikudb waiting for you. i am not going to judge (mostly) and you shouldn't give a fuck about my judgement anyway. but i think it's insane people will be all about accountability and shit but refuse to come to terms with the fact that their favorite edgy producers may be really bad people (this isn't to say all edgy/problematic producers are bad, i'm literally a fucking deadballP fan). it sucks vocaloid fans are the most willing to actively hide and prevent the preservation of evidence (which leads to things like this disappearing so in a roundabout way they're destroying it) if it's to defend some mediocre ass music producer when that person is just a drop in the ocean. would not kill you to find something else to listen to

Vic, you just sherlock-scanned a whole scene for clues that you might have performed well in a single subject, I think it's safe to assume you scored that 60%.

OR IS IT?

i swear everyone talks about dashcon but no one ever talks about 2009-2010-ish tumblr meetups

i swear this website used to have a whole banner ad for them when they would happen and it would be like a different city each time or something?
