All landlords, cops and billionaires must perpetuate evil in order to maintain their status as such in society, if they didn't help uphold the evils of this system, they won't remain any of these 3 for long

I'd like to say, that if you fight for rights of any discriminated people, whether people of colour, the ones experiencing genocide, have experienced genocide, LGBTQIA+, etc. It won't matter if there isn't a planet to live on.
Fighting to stop climate change is just as important as fighting for human rights. And to fight to stop climate change we have to acknowledge one of the biggest reasons it is happening.
Capitalism. It is their beliefs of infinite growth and profit over people and the planet that has caused and been causing all of this.
If you care about one of these things, you better start fighting the root of almost all of these problems.
The wars in the name of money
The deforestation for profit
The propaganda made to keep capitalism as the "best" economic system
The discrimination and shallow acceptance in the name of money
The violation of privacy for money
The violation of so many human rights for money
It may seem hopeless to fight them, but it isn't. We are the ones working and we can stop working, we are the ones buying and we can stop buying.
Protests, boycotts, and even revolutions taking down capitalistic governments and systems will happen.
We just need to be in solidarity, fighting for our and the planet's future. Elevate voices, fight the broken systems, start making your online presence more private, boycott companies mistreating employees, boycott companies supporting and profiting from genocide, protest, revolution.
Socialism or death.
That is our choice.
I personally believe the next few decades will see the fall of many capitalist societies, and countries. I know we would not and will not let it continue. The future will have a free Palestine, a prospering Sudan and Congo, an independent Hawai'i, a unified Ireland, an independent Scotland, a truly free Philippines, a safe America, a unified world.
Free Palestine, the Congo, Sudan, and all experiencing genocide.
Never stop talking about them
Protest, boycott, lobby
I'll see you all when the sun rises on a free and safe world. Until then, we fight and endure.

Radical ideas, but:
Pay people appropriately and enough to live comfortably
Health insurance shouldn't be tied to your job, universal healthcare
Tax the rich
Billionaires shouldn't exist
TRICKLE DOWN DOESN’T WORK; THE ULTRA WEALTHY JUST HOARD IT AND CRUSH EVERYONE ELSE
Getting really tired of capitalism; it doesn't work and is literally destroying the world

Individualism is a product capitalism sells you
Let me talk about something that is in my mind recently, because someone I know kept harping on about how much better individualistic philosophies were compared to collectivist societies. Which... scientifically is just not true. Which they would just not accept. I could show them studies on this and... they would just not accept it. Instead they kept harping on about how much of an individual they were. Which got me to just sit there and roll my eyes very much.
Because here is the thing: Individualism is a product that capitalism sells to you.
People under capitalism will always go: "I am a total individual!" And... like, they are not. Sure, we all have our individual experiences that formed how we think and how we go about it. But most of what people consider their individualism is... Just stuff that gets sold to you.
Be it your style of clothing, be it your interests and fandoms, be it your music, your make-up, or whatever. Most of it is just something that got directly or indirectly sold to you.
This entire "I am such an individual!" stuff is just basically a "I am not like the other girls" thing on a societal level. It is bullshit.

Reminder not to use Better Help because they have sold user data, medical questionares and emails to third party companies.
Their founder is also a IDF veteran (As of 2015 Teladoc Health owns it as a parent company, however, Teladoc Health is the parent company who oversaw it during the 2018 leak of sale of user data.) and is currently peddling another capitalist mental health venture called CalmiGo (it is a 'smelling' divice that is supposed to help with anxiety and panic attacks but has absolutely no studies to back it and they have some very coercive wording on their website to goad people into spending money on something they can get in any other essential oil shop.

Once upon a time i worked a job that involved me traveling a lot. Every Monday i'd fly to some other state, and the company would put me up in a hotel and i'd get a company card with a per diem for food, and then on Friday they'd fly me back home. And we got, like, $100 a day for food. Which is crazy, and I would never hit that quota, so by the time I had been doing this for a few months I just had, like, hella cash to burn.
And it was so much fun. Because at some point I just realized that I was fully empowered to give, like... crazy good tips. Any time I ate or ordered anywhere I'd tip at least 100%. It was especially fun when I ate out, like at some of the restaurants in the hotels and stuff, 'cause I'd be this little early-twenty-something dining by myself, doodling in my iPad while I ate, and then at the end of the meal I could just drop a $150 tip and skip off and it felt so fucking good. 'Cause what did I care! It's not my money! It's corporate money, baby. Why not give it to other people???
Anyway, the point is that I miss being able to do that so fucking much.

"Collateral damage" is a term invented by people who inflict unknown amounts of damage to others and don't want to take responsibility

Forcing everyone to work when we have machines which can do the work of a 100 people is problematic.
These machines are used to maximize profits and not to minimize human suffering.
We need our economy to be geared toward human need and not human greed.

I love that boomers and gen x think tiktok radicalized me into a communist because I can tell you right now the thing that has radicalized me the MOST is working at a business. I see first hand how exploitative and wasteful capitalism is every day of my life. And I have seen the spreadsheets of how much money a worker here produces for the company a quarter (it’s in the millions) and they barely get paid above minimum wage. I know the millions and millions the big guys at the top make in bonuses ALONE while doing a small fraction of the work middle management does. I was told I would get a bonus that was 10% of my salary, and I was so happy because I was gonna use it to make a small dent on my student loans, only for them to say “sorry bad economy :/“ and give me 100 dollars, meanwhile the company profited almost 1 billion dollars last year. You could redistribute a fraction of a fraction of that profit and change the lives of everyone in the company. I see constantly how this business is contributing to the climate crisis tremendously in the name of short term profit for a small few at the top. Living in capitalism radicalized me, not the crochet tutorials I watch on tiktok.

How the law actually works:
If you're rich, you can do whatever you want, as long as you don't fuck with other rich people's money.
If you're non-rich, you'll be subject to laws to create the illusion of justice.

rob:
“No-one is forcing you to work at that job you hate”
I think you will find the threat of starvation and homelessness is fairly coercive
