Go look over this bullshit that has nothing to do with baseball. It's preposterous.
fuck Smith n Wesson may start building a new mansion. with the way the winds blowing.Its been a while since Ive read atlas shrug.
Most of my ideas come from life experience and talking to people of all persuasions and who happen be way smarter then me. I am no genius. I certainly lack their debate abilities and intellectual capacity
I just dont think its possible for an individual to change society at the macro level. Try changinging someones opinion on your personal merits vs an industrial complex which spends millions or billions in dollars in research on how to reform thought is a worthless endeavor. Its like trying to swim against a rip tide. You'll only drown.
The best you can do is form your own clique of people who help each other no matter what and ignore the worod outside that group.
Here's an idea:I tried looking for an ideology to counter capitalism within current American politics and found nothing to my liking. So Ive been trying to create my own half assed version of what to do. Its a work in progress so sue me.
Agorism has its own class analysis. There the entrepreneur, non state capitalist and state capitalist. Basically agorist, worker and crony capitalist. The latter needs power of the state to remain profitable and often does things to make life miserable for others. The agorist is truly Grey market and free market who erodes at the state capitalist s power by providing true value to othersHere's an idea:
Let's all be capitalist, but let's not be massive dicks.
Most of capitalism's problems can be solved while maintaining a capitalist base. Basically, keep most of the free market shit. Get rid of this "corporations are people" bullshit. Regulate their statements on political issues. Regulate their political spending. Restrict their capacity to form monopolies. If monopolies are inevitable such as the Google question, integrate it jnto some sort of governing body.
This all sounds like it could get really dystopian really fast, but it really is the simplest solution.
I don't see any reason not to. Memes are really one of the only ways to combat this bullshit and lets the other sane people know they are not alone.Should we troll them with that old clip from the Montel Williams show? I think that's a meme that'll never get old (and archive it and upload elsewhere like Bitchute for the Streisand effect).
They just have to shove this shit down people's throats.

Like I said when I posted this Amani Sawari's grift has links to all the usual suspects, like the NLG. If you dig some more you'll find others we all know and hate. I forgot who posted it in this thread but this is a tactic they borrowed from the OG Antifaschistische Aktion/Spanish Anarchists in the early 20th century.
"Dropping out" always seemed like a bad take imo. It's appealing, don't get me wrong, but it's not very practical. You lose the luxury of capitalism in the process which sounds like a social benefit but has a slew of "quality of life" consequences.Agorism has its own class analysis.

Basically it seems all my ideas are about dropping out of the main stream so to starve the establishment
Sorry for spreginess im just figuring all this out loud. I just feel dropping out is the answer.
Why you would turn to the goverment for answers when this whole thread shows how that can backfire and be a losing strategy?. Direct action is your only answer at this point
Both sides deal with subjective arguments, it's called being human.
Someone from the other side of the argument would point at his arguments and call them self-evident, objective truths. He would accuse you of being subjective and come up with a term that ties that into buzzwords associated with the alt-right or worse.
It's not necessarily the case with stuff like Kyle Rittenhouse specifically, but you'll stumble over it sooner or later, since it affects all arguments and all situations.
To claim that only one side has The Objective Truth™ on their side is pretty arrogant no matter what side does it. It reeks of the "right side of history" rhetoric tbh.
ftfy. As if this wasn't just as true for the other side of the political spectrum.
To these people, the answer is no. They will do everything in their power to destroy Trump, anything they see as a white construct, every statue of the founding fathers and every war hero, every Confederate, and I can only assume they aim to replace it with a progressive utopia they felt they were promised in 2016 (what that utopia looks like, I have no fucking clue).
Yes. Barbie's little sister 60 years ago. Just one of the many reasons his kids will die from untreatable cringe when they're a little older. (Their dog, btw, is named Head Louse, in keeping with the arthropod theme.)He named his child Cricket? What the fuck is wrong with liberals.
The System's pimps will always crack down hard on whoever tries to "opt out" of their Beast System."Dropping out" always seemed like a bad take imo.

The government is a tool. Like any other tool, it can be used for great things, pointless things, and evil things. Be mindful of how you use it, of course, but throwing it away is as retarded as deciding never to use a screwdriver again.
Corporations are legal persons because that protects the rights of the individuals freely associating to form the corporation. This is the correct legal position to protect individuals putting their time, money, and lives into a corporation from the State. Not that this is OT or anything.
I know WHY corporations are deemed people and the argument isn't entirely retarded. Im just saying it's dumb. Corporations should be seen as a class distinct from "people" in the sense of limiting their right to free speech. Don't allow them yo issue public statements on political matters nor discriminate on political grounds.Corporations are people
This is the most broke brain thing progressives spout in the last decade.
If a corporation can't pool their money and push for certain issues than every single PAC to PTA is illegal.
And for all the whining about money buying elections coming from the left they consistently outspend Republicans. Clinton out spent Trump by $100,000,000. Obama outspent McCain 2 to 1.
