no, and they're eager to, but I think if they ever tried to not, things would go badly. that's bad for the market and drives down everyone elses profits. there would be a lot of solidarity against them by the class of people that own the police.

capitalism is the idea that value comes from ownership, rather than labor. landlording is just the purest expression of capitalism.

kill everyone in valhalla and then

isn't that kind of the whole vibe? that's just, like, every day there right?

fascism is solipsistic. or aspirationally so, at least. to them it works. to them it matters.

trans AND foreigners? and who refers to the ocean other than woke environmentalists?

crazy! like this is what rules were always for, or something! but then that's insane; if that were true, the wealthy, the powerful, and their servants, would never be punished for violating them. so i guess it couldn't be that.

can you prove any of that though? like, how are you sure he's alive? and how do you know you aren't him?

there are ways other than capitalism to support people who do stuff, but im guessing most of these people wouldn't support you in those ways either, and it's just a hierarchy issue.

no but see it's about hierarchy. the factory farm is bigger than me, and so I must serve it and obey on its terms. the local farm is just a person. I bet I could take them in a fight. therefore they should serve me and all interactions should be on my terms.

it's about the panopticon; getting you to do the censorship. building a better cop in your head.

letting libs like reddit admins read foucault was like letting silicon valley billionaires read 'snow crash'.

oh. what's their holy symbol? is it a symbol of statist exemplary violence, a monument of terror used on slave rebellions and sometimes other people? or some other thing?

I get there are people who still call themselves that, but they're not, and there is no continuity.

honestly we're all just shocked a whole 835 kilograms made it that far north. americans really like their cocaine. the most famous american beverage is fucking named after it's precursor.
