      Class consciousness is so pathetically lacking. Really makes you :deeper-sadness: sometimes

        I know this libertarian, a Tim Pool fan. He isn't an outright fascist but he's adjacent because he supports capitalism and disapproves of threats to the system. Recently I found out what his plan is under capitalism. He is going to start a youtube channel with basic guitar instructional videos. The catch is that it's all outdoors. When it's successful he is going to use the youtube revenue to start an entire music school. He currently rents a bedroom, works in one of the most exploitative industries in the country at the lowest level, and learned to play guitar within the past couple years.

        The world is going to die because millions of him want to start a youtube channel that makes them an instant celebrity with the money to participate in society or self-actualise. In his most ideal situation under capitalism, he wants a job where he controls nothing and acts as a dancing monkey with a quota for a multinational corporation that can take away his livelihood on a whim. Challenging the system would mean he can't become a celebrity amateur guitar player.

      "Has money and ideas on saving humanity" is a comic book villain origin story and him having that money because he "bought into the company that let people pay for things on ebay" is exactly the comic book villain that America deserves.
