-> file: messages/547 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────── Internationalize amazon and walmart and you'll have fixed most of the problems of globalism. But you can't fix anything if you don't have power... It's important to focus on how to get power. Keep in mind "what to do when you have power" but don't let it dominate your thoughts. Focus on claiming your right to determination. Steps to revolution: 1. Invert power structures with unions 2. Care for people with mutual aid 3. Vote for the Democrat so we have a few more years of peace 4. Teach people to always be learning 5. Connect to people on a personal or spiritual level 6. Make the world a better place, whether that's by sweeping a street corner or helping people smile, it doesn't really matter how. What matters is the intention. 7. Improve your self and your life. Do pushups, eat better, drink more water, spend time writing (writing is thinking), and take time to sit and stare at the flowers. 8. Kill the part of yourself that cringes. Everyone's figuring things out and its okay to say "haha okay then" 9. Spend time with animals. 10. Make mistakes. Apologize for them. Learn from them. Stay mobile in your character. Develop new ways of being. 11. React with vigor when the time comes. This vigor will only be violent if it is caused by violence. Much more likely is a strength through organization. We can do it if we do it together! 12. Show up every day, but don't hang around if everyone's resting at home. It's okay to stop showing up if things are on pause. 13. Trust that your allies are working. Or resting. Or preparing. 14. Plans change, planning remains. 15. Dream of a better future. It is within reach. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/548 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────── I know it's his loss, but he's my friend and I don't want him to lose. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/3834 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────── ┌────────────────────────┐ │ CW: politics-mentioned │ └────────────────────────┘ some people prepare for revolution like a boy gets ready for a party others do so like a girl packing for a weekend trip to vegas I do it like a kid who forgot the paper was due on monday in 7th period and so spends their entire lunch period writing it (missing 4th in the process because the conclusion paragraph was giving me difficulty) but I think no matter how you do it, we're all just waiting for something to happen. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/3835 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────── ┌────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: politics-mentioned │ └────────────────────────────┘ @user-1074 aye-aye cap'n ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/3836 ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────┐ ║ ┌────────────────────────────────────┐ │ ║ │ CW: AI-mentioned-LLMs-mentioned-AI │ │ ║ └────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ║ │ ║ │ ║ I love next word predictors! │ ║ │ ║ AI?
