    also, as an actual radical:

    yeah pretty spot on with healthcare. this is basic ‘having a society’ shit.

    I don’t want a job that pays so much as an actual society I can contribute to and nurture and be a fucking part of that will take care of me some noticeable fraction of how I take care of it. I’d rather not have money involved, if its all the same to you.

    I do actually want a free place to live. I’ll help build it or whatever, but I’m fucking done compromising with landlord parasites; watched too many of their victims die.

    I do not want corporations to be unprofitable; I want them dismantled and their boards executed. worker co-ops are cool. individual enterprise is cool. no more exploitation, no more not having a voice.

    I think the entire concept we have of ‘democracy’ is absolutely cucked. I could write some essays on what real democracy looks like, but the short version is: fuck your bourgoise elections.

    kill the billionaires; tjwyre literal monsters who drink children’s blood steal and transfuse the blood of the young to grasp vainly at eternal youth while burning our futures. no problem with your party yacht if its green and you built it with your friends, but I think we need a reset on ‘wealth’.

      Glad I was not the only one who was reading these points and questioning why the fuck wouldn’t I be fighting for free healthcare and housing. These aren’t impossible goals.

        these are incredibly basic ‘minimum first world country’ shit.

        most peripheral (‘third world’)countries have at least half of these. a few manage all of them, albeit with a much lower standard of medical care, because they don’t have things like reliable electricity.

        these are incredibly moderate, even conservative ideas, and the only systems they could possibly disrupt are the most rabidly unselfconsciously exploitative. if you’re against any of these; you’re anti civilization.
