We’re allowed to discuss all forms of revolution, so long as they are ineffective.

So if you want to know how to stage a successful revolution, consider what you’re not allowed to say as the starting point. And take a look at how the CIA overthrows governments- it ain’t peaceful.

I literally rage quit reddit over this. Hence why am on Lemmy now. Hopefully we can draw more users from Reddit over here. Esp with the boycott of all things US.

The monopoly men have worked very hard over the past one hundred years to stamp out class consciousness in the US. They won’t give in without a fight.

I was shadow banned from Reddit for making a not violent Luigi post on 12/23/24. My account was older and had high karma. I am grateful to have found this community. The state of human rights in the United States is bleak. I watched my mom die from early onset Alzheimer’s in our broken system and I don’t even have words for the cruelty in our system. How can corporations be “people” if there’s no way to hold them accountable for mass murder? Our system is broken and corrupt from top to bottom and somehow it’s about to get much worse. Luigi gave those of us who are broken and tired a fleeting moment of hope.

The moment Robber Barons were first stopped, they starting working to rig things so they are never stopped again.

The only way to remind them that they have no such power is the French way.

All Tesla dealerships should be on fire by now. Now protected by a wall of obese 'police' that would not pass the most lenient tests to join the police force in any country of the EU.

They want to establish the narrative of Luigi-the-terrorist, but human beings know who is the reasonable one.

I remember people saying that about Julian Assange and Edward Snowden twenty years ago. It didn't take long for popular opinion to turn on them, though. Just call the whistleblowers allies of the opposition party or props of an evil foreign government. Americans hate that. And the American public soured on them rapidly, as a result.

Let's not play dumb. Evoking the image of Luigi is in itself a gesture towards violence. That's the point. Why discuss billionaires and show a picture of Luigi instead of Mary Poppins? Because of what Luigi did and what he represents. It's implying a desirable solution.

It's bullshit that Reddit removes this stuff, and it reveals where their loyalties lie, but we're not on Reddit anymore.

Stop acting like a conservative and just say what you mean.

Or maybe act more like a conservative and obscure your viewpoints more so they don't get banned. Let's go Mary Poppins memes.

[-] sheetzoos@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Agreed. Asking nicely is the only way to get the billionaires to stop.

[-] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

fuck off, that's not what I meant. I'm saying stop ACTING like you're asking nicely.

If you knew about The Haymarket Affair, you would understand what it takes to strip power from robber barons.

[-] xye@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

I read about it and I’m a little confused. I’m not who you replied to, just a curious lurker. That’s a fascinating and very powerful event so first thank you for sharing, but I couldn’t figure out how it culminates in stripping power from robber barons

It's a photo of a guy who shot a CEO and a text that basically says "there's more".

While I agree with the message, it's still a call to voilence.

[-] canajac@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 month ago

What other murderers are your heroes folks?

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 month ago

Oh, did he actually do it?

Because last I checked, he's a suspect and there's no guilty verdict.

So if anything, this is just a innocent until proven guilty guy.

[-] canajac@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 month ago

Then why are you all making him a hero if he didn't do anything?

[-] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 0 points 1 month ago

Who is "you all"?

Also it doesn't matter if he did it or not from perspective of the class struggle and corporate oppression angle

The state chosen him to be the face of the people and they done fucked up because it back fired spectacularly.

So to answer your question... "We" didn't make him anything the state presented Luigi as the alleged adjuster who was already was enjoying huge support prior to Luigi being set up with the conviction starter pack.

The state tried smearing him via fake news and socials... That failed too.

And the state has yet to even covict him of the alleged crime.

So you tell me what "we" actually did here beyond asking a few questions about what actually happened and why woulf somebody do this to such a leader lim brian Thompson.

[-] canajac@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 month ago

What the fawk are you talking about? He's a frustrated loser who came to a decision that murder would solve his poor back problems and maybe change the world LOL. I wonder if prisons have chiropractors. I hope the hell not.
