There are always going to be differences in power in human relations, I am a big strong bear boi, if I am in a relationship with a scrawny little nerd, I could beat him up.
We need a world that recognizes this reality and does everything possible to ensure that there is a very low limit to the amount of power that a single person can accumulate.
No one of any age can be trusted with power, it's that simple. Power corrupts. I've seen as little power as being a discord moderator go to people's head.
The only way out of our problems is to permenently abolish the state and all forms of heirarchical authority and power, and move human civilization to a flat structure, where we all co-operate instead of trying to climb over eachother
Yes, it's illegal, the law absolutely would defend nazis, which is why it does not deserve our respect. Anyone who publicly breaks the law to do a good thing is a hero and deserves our respect.
The implication is obvious: Americans didn't steal land, Europeans did! Then those Europeans became Americans so you can wash your hands of it.
It's your ancestors. It's your legacy. You benefitted from it.
Take accountability. I am not blaming you for it, but you are living in the consequences of it. In much the same way that the Japanese want to deny their WWII atrocities, US Americans want to deny their atrocities.
What I really want to see is Americans forming resistance communities, educating themselves, organizing, and preparing for a revolution in the United States. As non-violent of a revolution as is possible. I want to see class consciousness, solidarity and compassion spreading and community building. I want to see worker and housing co-operatives starting up to build an alternative to the state and capitalism. I want to see those resistance communities work together to establish an alternative currency.
My second choice would be a civil war.
"revival" you say, as if this hasn't been the entire history of the US. they're just not bothering to even try to cover it up anymore
I'm not trying to defend Europe. I am just pointing out that US Americans are responsible for the actions of the US, and that you should take responsibility for those actions.
Your argument is kind of like trying to blame any crimes I commit on my great great grandfather. You have agency.
You can be proud of your history, or ashamed of it. I am ashamed of my European nation for what it has done in the past. I believe that my country is a terrible place and has done terrible things. I would rejoice to see it dissolved and the rulers held accountable. I would cheer to see our entire government put on trial.
Voting isn't the only say you have in your nation. I heard so much about how the second amendment is to prevent tyranny. Tyranny is here.
You are jumping to so many conclusions, I haven't claimed any of those things you seem to think I have.
The USA isn't alone and pretty much every country sucks. But the USA is the ruling country of the American Empire and it has been for nearly a century.
Honestly, I think you're just getting angry from the cognitive dissonance.
Just accept that your nation is the bad guys and that you need to change it. Yes, other people need to change too.
Honestly though, it's probably not going to matter, the US is in decline and pretty much is going to collapse soon.
Share price and profit are two very different beasts and only really have a loose connection to one another. Plenty of companies lose money left and right but still have high share prices.
The share price is just what the stock market feels a company is worth. It's almost 100% vibe-based.
