I'd build a compound in the woods and fund/train a group that would function sort of like a secret intelligence apparatus except instead of serving capital it would serve the revolution. Like a reverse cointelpro doing covert ops against fascists, pigs, capitalists and politicians.
If you look at my recent comments you can probably figure out which one is the reason I don't think I'm at any risk of that lol.
I could easily see myself become apathetic because of an enormous wealth. It's hard to encapsulate $100MM so it's hard for me, a historic large adult child, to talk about how principaled I'd be and all the underground networks I'd fund. Frankly, I got into this because of how much I hate working. I learned about how unethical the whole gig is eventually, but it started with me being a lazy asshole who wouldn't have minded seeing their landlord, bank, and boss hanging upside down in central park.
I want to believe I wouldn't go around espousing the good word of capitalism, so I don't know how much of a traitor I would be. But if I'm talking that good leftist shit and a CIA agent sends me an email saying "knock it off" I'd shit myself and never espouse an opinion again. I could see myself taking my LED encrusted g*ming PC and my robot maid and riding off into the sunset.
So I'd set some aside to make sure me and my family and my friends would be ok, and then I would donate as much as I could to existing communist parties and assorted left orgs without getting my assets frozen or arrested for "supporting terrorism." As a pet project, I would fund a renaissance of communist art and media and show right wingers what real "cultural marxism" would look like
:sicko-yes:
Propaganda is important, though we can't really rely on outside platforms
You're cooler than me. I just pay off parents debt and house, go to doctor, never work, and commission a lot of weird art that I like until I die in a bathtub. Also buy a bathtub.
move to the periphery, go 100% renewable small scale energy based resilient agricultural production to supply healthy, local and nutritious food (raw, delivered and prepared as needed) for workers, disabled and elderly people in the area. with priority given to organized labor groups engaged in industrial action, like teachers, nurses, etc.
anyone who wants to help gets a place to stay, plenty of food, access to the transportation infrastructure of the organization to get around as needed. It could and would probably offer some kind of payment system at the beginning, but the goal would be to spend all of the money on useful infrastructure and the material needs of the workers until it became something else, like a worker-owned co-op... but the mission of providing for the disadvantaged would need to prevail over the worker interest in being gratuitously remunerated... or I would haunt the farm.
and now it sounds like a religious institution. whoops.
Get my own affairs in order, then get all the firearms practice I haven't been able to do due and get in contact with local leftist orgs to bankroll them. I don't really see myself as leadership material, would much rather just help people who are good at organizing.
I've thought about this and well, if I'm being 100% honest I'd pay off my parents debt, pay for college for myself, and buy a 1990 Honda NSX. afterwards I would buy land and do something similar. I would set up and train a group somewhat decentralized just outside of a few different major cities
