You can't demand systemic change, greater distribution of wealth and the liberation of workers from the ownership class if you have a house. If you have a house then those things are not possible. Having a house invalidates your participation in a society and any critiques of the economy.
The reason the soviets lost is because they had houses. Having a house is active participation in capitalism. Houses did not exist before and they will not exist after. So the only reasonable way to be a socialist is to sell your house. Then make a little house out of the money and sell that. All the way down until you have nothing left and then you will be halfway on your way to being a socialist but not until you sell your phone.. let me explain.
If you're not wearing a barrel with suspenders, you're participating too much in Capitalism to be a true leftist.
Oh man the other day I saw a heated debate on Twitter end with the comment: "The fact you are alive is basically evidence you are nothing but a LARPer. Just shut the fuck up and overthrow the USA I'm waiting." If you're still alive you aren't a true leftist.
they're trying to make themselves feel better about choosing to be selfish and greedy
Oh, nah, the other person was being pretty extreme ("you're a coward if you aren't active enough to be on the CIA's hitlist, you are letting your tax dollars be used to murder people in the global south") lmao. I just thought it's a funny takedown.
I don't think either person in the argument was a lib haha. It was about whether it's ok for AOC to write about Black Panthers doing food drives (so white people start thinking about them more positively) without mentioning that they were radical communists in an instagram post. Even if her turning full radical means being ostracised and/or murdered by the CIA. Lbr the only people who have struggle sessions over instagram posts that end with someone saying "if u haven't been shot dead by the CIA already ur a lib" are commies lmao
Suspenders are bourgeois decadence. True leftists are alotted exactly one stationary barrel which they may roll around through their own labour
If you are not traversing the USA like Solid Snake in MGS4, you are capitalism
Barrels would not exist without capitalism. Milton Friedman told me so.
Return To Monke or you are capitalism.
You’re not a true socialist until you’ve abandoned your corporeal body and exist in a state of pure energy with no distinct features or clear separation between you and your comrades.
abandoned your corporeal body
Sounds anti-materialist. Are you sure you're not a lib?
True story: When I was a laborer I never thought to use the straps to pull my workboots on, I just jammed my foot in using my finger as a makeshift shoehorn... until I heard the phrase about bootstraps and learned they were the tabs on the back of work boots. I dunno I though they were vestigial there for the sake of it . So I thought, thats a good idea, it'll save me the mild finger discomfort. So I tried to pull them on using the bootstraps for the first time ever, and they snapped clean off.
Some sort of metaphor for capitalism or do I just have pudding hands? Could be either.
Lol, same here, except the snapping off part
I just didn't use them after the first time because it was more of a faffThe modern style of bootstraps are not attached correctly to actually be useful. They are supposed to be attached on the inside and stick out, so when you pull it pulls the boot more open instead of just changing the shape of the opening slightly.
True Marxists squirm in the mud like little worms, in perfect equality. Sell your clothes, embrace sepsis.
I resemble that worm which crawls through dust,
Lives in the dust, eats dust
Until a passerby's foot crushes it
My "Not a fed" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.
This is funny cuz socialist states often have the highest home ownership rates in the world
Sounds like I should give up my guns, car, and let my Republican neighbors have sex with my wife while I'm at it.
If you and your wife haven't taken a vocel pledge, you aren't really taking hexabearism with communist characteristics seriously
Isnt a car basically a house on wheels? That being said; lolno
You cannot be a socialist unless you move to a Native American reservation and displace a family. We claim to show solidarity with indigenous groups but how can you unless you are living in their neighbourhood and letting them use your possessions. We claim to hate cops but willingly live under them unless we move to reservations and cite Oliphant v. Suquamish every time tribal police try to arrest us for committing crimes against the tribe's private property. How can we claim to be environmentally sustainable unless we move to a reservation and live off their land's resources? Nobody can claim we're using iPhones to stan socialism if we move to areas with crushing poverty and work the few available jobs for wages too low to afford one.
