Where do you see us going? Everything is shit and going to shit.

I honestly see no way out. Capitalism is never going to die. We are never going to get UBI. Unemployment is going to keep on rising. AI is just destroying jobs left and right. The wage gap keeps increasing. Consumption is ever increasing as well. More and more bullshit is created and bought. We are destroying the planet.

Let me get this out of the way: Humans fucking suck. In recent fascist vs moderately-left elections, you see fascists winning or the moderately-left winning by just 1 or 2 percent. See US and Brazil. How?

Look at what is happening in the past 2 days or so: Market is down with the Epstein donators going into the red. And I still see tons and tons of people saying "I will buy now! seems like a good time to buy!". Absolute lunacy. Do people not understand that the only way to collectively win, is to not play their game, at all? Like, stop playing their fucking game.

How can we be so fucking bad? People seem to only care about themselves.

Anytime there is news about poor people receiving some sort of help, you see people making arguments such as "oh, I paid my taxes and now poor people are getting help and I am not? I should avoid paying my taxes so I also get help". There is very little empathy, compassion and kindness. It seems like every human is in it for him/herself.

The rich keep breaking laws and nothing ever happens to them. Look at some recent hacks by OAI's AI. Look at Epstein's...everything. Look at AI companies just plainly stealing data from everywhere and everyone.

I have 0 hope. Maybe I just need to touch some grass, and hug some trees, while there are still trees around. They won't be around for much longer, it seems... It appears we are waging a war on trees and nature.

We could, hypothetically, get our shit together. By that I mean, it is possible, it is not in the real of impossibility. We are not breaking any laws of physics. But it seems like we'd be breaking some biology laws? Is it in our genetic make up to be this fucking horrible? Is it just humanity and humans that will never allow us to cooperate for a better life?

Ya, sorry for the rambling.

For part 2, they would put a mole in the group, and create a situation where someone acts like they get hurt and shoot a blank or a 22 at a group of police with riot gear on. Then smear them as armed terrorists across all media use facial recognition and security around town to collect plates, track down their locations and arrest them individually.

If enough people do it, it would work still, but hundreds of people would go to jail first.

I imagine most people would turn on the protesters first though. As many companies would not want to be seen as supporting armed terrorists so they would actively fire people who get named or post on social media about supporting them.

    It's the only way to stop fascists from using violence against protesters...

    Do you know what happens now?

    That shit..

    The shit that's you keep saying might, it already does.

    So what difference does it make?

    Armed protestsvhave a chance, that's the only difference. Stop fucking acting like we can't do something new because the fascists might do what they already do.

    Fuck that stupid learned helplessness shit
