And believe me, no matter how small you start it’ll grow. People will see what you’re doing and want to get involved. And there’s never a shortage of mutual aid work that needs to be done in our capitalist hellscape.
Well for starters nobody that volunteers for us draws a salary, well, I should say literally nobody in the organisation does. Not the people who run it, nobody. The cooks are grannies and other people with spare time who cook using their own money and time in their own kitchens. The drivers who collect the food are volunteers who pay for their own petrol. The volunteers who hand out food are doing it for the love of their fellow human being.
We’re not a registered charity and we don’t beg for permits from the capitalist state which is why there have been attempts to repress our work all across the country. In Sydney alone we’ve received almost $1000 in fines this year because the pigs want to force us away from the area because there are bougie cafes there and it’s right in front of the federal bank building.
We also actually interact with the people who come down as human beings and not pigs to be handed the lowest form of slop and be looked down upon. Often people who come down to the kitchen end up helping the org out.
While we don’t have unlimited resources as a fully donation/volunteer based org, we try to help out wherever we can. We’ve found ways to get beds and roofs for people who approach us in crisis. We’re working on setting up a gardening program for old or disabled folks who can’t do it themselves, as well as a DV support van which can help victims move out of their abusive home.
We also show up rain, hail, or covid (with measures in place of course). Last year during the big lockdowns here most organisations stopped showing up out of fear of getting fined or catching covid, left a tonne of needy people in the lurch. We showed up every week.
You should try posting a homophobic image of Putin
Russia had to capture Chernobyl so that Putin could do his big reveal there announcing “I serve the Soviet Union”
Babies born at 2:22 on 2/2/22 are days old at this point, time to stop crying and defend the motherland
Brave Redditors fighting the most important front of this conflict
Not saying we should take Putin at his word but the stated objective at present isn’t to annex Ukraine but to de-nazify it (and conveniently cripple its military before it can join the Nazi Atlantic Terrorist Organisation)
Love Westoids being like “can’t believe Putin is invading a European country he’s just like Hitler” as if Kosovo never happened
I for one am excited to see the Havana syndrome gun deployed in combat
American kills American in America for protesting against American state repression and is let off in an American court by americans
Libs: russia did this
Someone looked up the presidents ass today
We love our slop don’t we fellow hogs

haha, I was reading them as a vegan being like "c'mon dude most of us are cool, I just don't wanna murder animals I don't think we'll single handedly solve climate change":powercry-1:
oh, when was the episode?
Holy shit I checked your post history, insanity. That’s kinda of the thrust of this article, from an Australian context. Imagine sitting in Australia struggling with a smallish outbreak and advocating to take the same approach as the US and other places where the virus has completely taken hold. Only an absolute ghoul would do that.
and never punished
fuckin logged in to post this bullshit. that Tony Straccia removed needs the people's justice tbh.
super coincidental that the DHS chick also owns a pub next door. not at all suss.
Holy crap that would be amazing 🙏
