Capitalists want us to think the commons are theirs. Just because they have the power to enclose them and charge us rents for access, and the failure of conscience to do so. But in the words of David Rovics;

"It’s the commons, our right of birth
And to you who would enclose the land all around the Earth
Our future is your downfall, when we cut this ball and chain
You who’d sacrifice the public good for your private gain"

David Rovics (Musician):

Partial Victory in Campaign to Restore YouTube Channel

– '...On January 9th, 2026, my channel received its first Strike. On prior occasions when songs that violated their policy on support for violent criminal organizations were taken down, I received Warnings. A Strike is worse -- 3 Strikes and your channel gets deleted. [...]

Review over. Here’s what happened next....'

@scriptkiddie Got the perfect song for this epic rant;

"With our sweat we built the railroads, built cities on these shores
But because you own the money you say that it’s all yours
We laid the phone lines and the pipelines and then right before our eyes
You say these things our taxes paid for you now will privatize
Privatize the hospitals, privatize the schools
Privatize the prisons for all those who break your rules"
