Well stated.

Anarchist add that the state works in concert with capital to protect property rights which are state enforced theft. Socialism can only be acheived by dismantling domination heirarchies i.e. capital and the state. Anything less will result in "aristocrats will succeed to contain the rest of the workforce, and work us to death like slaves at a sugar plantation".

Representative democracy suffers the problem of only representing monied interests.

Edit: I continue to vote. I continue to play the lottery.

Sorry Harris lost to a monster. My condolences. Maybe if we vote harder everything will get better. /s

Networks of mutual aid provide healthcare and education. Doctors do what they do. Teachers do what they do.

Does education or healthcare require something other than people doing the work and helping each other?

I remember sitting down to a game of chess. My partner asked how I had been. I told them I thought I was anti-semitic. They asked why. I said because I don't support the state of Israel. This was well over 30 years ago.

I had the sense to stop at being against zionism and concentration camps. Jews are great and Israel can "slob on my knob". Israel keeps playing the same game with the definition of anti-semitism.

We played "vote blue no matter who". We got genocide. No Epstein files, accountability for January 6, etc.

I participated in elections, but I think France, Serbia, et al know how to party.

A child (girl) kept single legging me at a party. I wrestle and she doesn't. She thought it was funny. I played along with the silliness hopping around and connecting my foot to her leg like I would defend a single leg. I encouraged her to learn to wrestle. Democratize violence to protect from bullies.

AI is a new excuse to not hire junior developers. The financial crisis was another excuse. The dot com bubble was another excuse. Junior developers are needed, but hiring authorities hate to employ them.

May trans people continue being underrepresented among murderers contrary to reactionary talking points.

Wishing to not fight is virtuous. Preparing for the fight is prudent.

With long term planning and perserverance, our great grandchildren (x15?) might know an end to the class war. That's bleak. I'm here for the fight.

Unironically, yes.

Scraping by is par for the course for laborers under capitalism. Bombs don't differentiate based on melanin. Stop being rascist. The laborer is alienated from the product (bomb) and it's application (whoever the powerful decide to target).

Clutching pearls is hard when there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Keep playing football with sweatshop balls. Laborers need to fight the class war and not each other.
