"We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words."
Ursula K. Le Guin
"all you need to know about the american health care system is that there's a popular tv series where a man turns to cooking industrial quantities of crystal meth in order to pay his hospital bills"
"All the governments on our planet are failing because they’re run by people who don’t have the best intentions in mind for the population, not because they’re capitalistic, socialistic, etc. At some point people will realize that these labels stand for nothing, and it will be like waking up from a dream. A bad dream where label-maker devices are running after people like monsters."
Jasun Ether (The Beasts of Success)
"Thus did a handful of rapacious citizens come to control all that was worth controlling in America. Thus was the savage and stupid and entirely inappropriate and unnecessary and humorless American class system created. Honest, industrious, peaceful citizens were classed as bloodsuckers, if they asked to be paid a living wage. And they saw that praise was reserved henceforth for those who devised means of getting paid enormously for committing crimes against which no laws had been passed. Thus the American dream turned belly up, turned green, bobbed to the scummy surface of cupidity unlimited, filled with gas, went bang in the noonday sun."
Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
"[Prison] relieves us of the responsibility of seriously engaging with the problems of our society, especially those produced by racism and, increasingly, global capitalism."

"Men, even if they are born free, will remain slaves of strict laws enacted by their forefathers..."
Kahlil Gibran
Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness's of other people. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
Carl Jung
"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."
Carl Jung
"Demons run when a good man goes to war.
Night will fall and drown the sun,
When a good man goes to war.
Friendship dies and true love lies,
Night will fall and the dark will rise,
When a good man goes to war.
Demons run, but count the cost.
The battle's won but the child is lost."
Steven Moffat
"I am truly free only when all human beings, men and women, are equally free. The freedom of other men, far from negating or limiting my freedom, is, on the contrary, its necessary premise and confirmation."

US Senator Beanie Sanders Breaks His Silence Over United Healthcare
FULL video here: https://youtu.be/ySrELvbnyjc?si=x3PWUFbjL-qONZgb
The whole "he was a father, had kids... yada yada" narrative means absolutely nothing to me. For all we know, he could’ve been a terrible husband and an awful father to his kids. Spare me the sympathy card for this guy. I have no interest in knowing any details about him.
Bernie had a somewhat way better answer than the majority of other politicians, majors and police officers! Universal healthcare for everybody.

“While jails and prisons have been dominant institutions for the control of men, mental institutions have served a similar purpose for women. That is, deviant men have been constructed as criminal, while deviant women have been constructed as insane.”

"I've unfortunately had a lot of experience navigating the healthcare industry," the designer told Gizmodo.
“He was free, free in every way, free to behave like a fool or a machine, free to accept, free to refuse, free to equivocate; to marry, to give up the game, to drag this death weight about with him for years to come. He could do what he liked, no one had the right to advise him, there would be for him no Good or Evil unless he thought them into being.”

"They all know exactly what they’re doing, not just the reporters and the editors of the major press, but also the CEOs of the energy and financial corporations. And, of course, also the political leaders. They’re not illiterate."

When the CEO of UnitedHealthcare tries to get into heaven
Why People Are Happy This CEO Got Assassinated
“Cyberspace. A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation, by children being taught mathematical concepts... A graphic representation of data abstracted from banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding...”

"Dieses System tötet uns. Jeden Tag. Ob in Kriegen, an der Grenze, auf den kalten Straßen, in einsamen Zimmern ohne Perspektiven. Am Anfang war nicht der Pflasterstein, sondern die Wut und Trauer, die uns dazu bewegten, diesen zu werfen. Wir wollen ein Ende der Gewalt, deswegen sind wir, unter anderem, Anarchist*innen."

“Ich bin nicht gekommen, Frieden zu bringen, sondern das Schwert. Denn ich bin gekommen, den Menschen zu entzweien mit seinem Vater und die Tochter mit ihrer Mutter und die Schwiegertochter mit ihrer Schwiegermutter.” Jesus
Widerspricht Jesus sich hier?
Nicht wirklich, es ist eine Metapher, was er hier meint ist Emanzipation von der Elterngeneration. Mit dem Schwert soll die Nabelschnur durchtrennt werden.
Emanzipation? Die Entlassung des Sohnes aus der Gewalt des Vaters. Heißt, wir legen das System, die Regeln und Rituale der Elterngeneration ab, den Kapitalismus, und kommen zurück zum Gemeinwohl und der Nächstenliebe.
Das geht aber nur ohne diesen Kapitalismus.

Adbusters is a global collective of poets, punks and philosophers implementing radical design and media strategies to shake up complacent consumerist culture. We're aiming at the stale systems suffocating society: the power-hungry forces that leave people and the environment in disarray; the toxic capitalism that creeps into our bodies and imaginations. Join us for the take down.

“The psychoanalytic liberation of memory explodes the rationality of the repressed individual. As cognition gives way to re-cognition, the forbidden images and impulses of childhood begin to tell the truth that reason denies.”

Schland 2024/25 - Fetteste Ressourcen um den Autoverkehr vor Klimaklebern zu schützen, Kiffer zu verfolgen (trotz Freigabe), RAF-Rentner & Antifa Kampfsportler zu jagen, ... aber keine Ressourcen, um seit Jahrzehnten offene Haftbefehle gegen organisierte Kriminalität, religiöse Fanatiker oder Neonazis zu vollstrecken ... allen voran: Bayern?! Habeck meinte mal, es gibt 300.000 offene Haftbefehle ... das Unsicherheitsgefühl überall ist inszeniert und gewollt.
Ohne diese unfähigen Volks-CEOs, gäbe es die ganzen Probleme gar nicht.
Und warum finden die Anschläge immer vor Wahlen statt? Warum sind das immer X-User? Wer schreibt das Drehbuch? Sie meinen ein Muster (Asylant) zu erkennen, aber das Muster ist doch ein strukturelles Problem, gewolltes Systemversagen, um Menschen in Angst und Ohnmacht klein und schwach zu halten.
Law- und Order-Politiker, die alles verbocken und dem politischen Gegner unterschieben, wir sind es so satt.
Die Verschwörungsideologie heißt Kapitalismus, und der kann nicht mit echter Demokratie koexistieren. "Gleichheit, Freiheit, Brüderlichkeit ..."
Gleichheit ist Gleichwertigkeit, nicht inzestöse Gleichmacherei. Und Brüderlichkeit ist die Nächstenliebe, die Jesus seit 2000 Jahren anmahnt und genauso lange von den Christen ignoriert und missachtet wurde.
Weil man hypnotisiert ist vom populistischen Grenzschutz(?) alle Ressourcen gegen eine Pflanze und deren Konsumenten verschwendet(?), Razzien in Apotheken macht, wegen Cannabis auf Rezept ... hat man keine Kräfte für die echten Bedrohungen?
Klar, wenn man nur links rasterfahndet, findet man nur Linke und schiebt sogar präventiv erstmal den NSU den Ausländern in die Schuhe, noch bevor die AfD die populistische Bühne betreten hat.
Linke Plattformen, sofort stillgelegt und alle als Terroristen geframed, aber jede rechte Plattform wird besser geschützt, als aussterbende Tierarten, das Klima oder Schulen.
Razzien bei Kindern und Jugendlichen, die sich Sorgen um die Zukunft machen, geht immer ... aber 300.000 offene Haftbefehle ... Hunderte davon echte Rechtsterroristen.
