 One takeaway I learned is that it is vital that we have strong community
 bonds. Not just a healthy community where you can walk outside and see
 friendly faces, but you have to know people.
 
 Whether that's achieved through some kind of revolutionary vanguard party or
 whatever, or just... being together and learning and growing to sing one
 lifetime of song, either way we need each other.

 trust more in the megaphone than the gun. Together we are strong, alone they
 are fearful.
 
 And if I know anything about them, it is that they are afraid. Cornered dogs
 bite the hardest. But we are united. Here in America we will fight with our
 arms, and uplift those who have had everything taken. Celebrate our
 differences, they provide mutually beneficial perspectives. You don't have to
 be friends to have common goals, but it helps.

 the more people we have thinking about what to do next, the more perspectives
 we can have on the problem. Sometimes really difficult or important things
 (like how to get to the next stages of political liberation) can benefit from
 a multitude of voices, but once consistency is achieved they can apply
 themselves with a single voice.
 
 community is how we communicate. Communication is good, I think. Can't help
 but wonder if we're all here because we share an interest in
 open-source-so-actually-usable communication methods.
 
 community isn't everything, but it's something, and everything's useful.

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 if we're encouraged to boost our old toots then I should be allowed to post
 screenshots of my old Reddit posts, right?
a reddit post from a year ago with 728 upvotes titled: This system is literally insane but they try to make it feel like you're insane. from the subreddit /r/psychonaut.  submitted 1 year ago by Nervous_Ad_9687       125 comments   [–]nincomturd   66 points 1 year ago   Lots of very good and salient points, but what I don't understand is this random praise of Jeff Bezos. It's entirely incongruent with everything else you wrote.  If greed is one of the problems you mentioned, you cannot at the same praise Jeff. The praise of western culture as well was a bit incongruent, as it's inextricably linked to these problematic concepts. You even talk about the problem of how culture perpetuates itself at them individual household level and goes on to firmy the broader culture.  But other than that, you definitely highlighted much of the insanity we're living with. If those of us who similarly have the eyes to see them insanity were to collectively live our values and work with each other to do so, we'd build the greatest culture and society the world has seen. One day I hope we make it. [next comment] /u/ugathanki 7 points 1 year ago       amazon has provided a useful and valuable service with excellent follow-through      amazon is unethically abusing it's workers, it's competitors, and the environment      the priorities of the company are misaligned - valuing service over ethical behavior [ran out of characters, see next picture] part 2 of the description for screen readers, because I ran out of characters      the reason they are misaligned is because it is most desirable to do so for the company      the reason it is most desirable is because corporations are designed to maximize profit over value produced.      just as "income" is adjusted by "expenditures" to create "profit", so too must "profit" be adjusted by "impact" to create "value"      the problem is, nobody can define what "impact" means. it's essentially a vacant variable, leading corporations to assume that "profit" == "value"      we don't need to punish corporations or "eat the rich", we need to adjust their reward structures such that "profit" != "value"      another problem is in the internal structure of a corporation - if none of the employees are powerful enough to challenge their higher-ups, then people like Bezos accrete power      the pathway to liberation is empowerment of the workers. those workers will re-define the priorities of their workplace to fit their desires - with a little guidance, they can desire "diligence, dedication, and a passion for craftsmanship" over "big number go up brrrrrrrr" - hence, social media.  sorry for the highlighting, am stoned.

 But together we are strong, and by connecting them we might deliver ourselves
 from harm.
 
 Against the far right, we must secure a cleansing blow. There is no greater
 fight. The world is watching.
 
 To that end, I suggest a great and perilous fight. I see no other option in
 this remarkable century. Prepare as you might, I suggest pushups and resource
 acquisition.
 
 Deliver your resources somewhere safe if you're in a red area, and meet your
 neighbors if you're not.
 
 A blue city in a red state must survive a siege. Prepare yourself for this.
 Assume that supplies will need to be delivered by convoy if by land, and drone
 airdrop from the skies. Develop ways to protect these supply methods.
 
 Public spaces are our homes now, our houses are just where we sleep.

 on our current trajectory, the presidential election is already won.
 
 now we can get back to on-the-ground organizing, the part that actually
 improves life instead of maintaining our current (unethical) state.
 
 As long as our allies (liberals) continue to work, perhaps there may come a
 day when we can stand against them as friendly equals in the ballot box. But
 for now we are best known through friends and community rather than TV.
 
 I am optimistic in a way I haven't been for a while. I know that the more we
 speak, the more we share, the more they falter, the more people we can save
 from their vice grip of despair. There is no better world than the one we
 build together!

 If you're radical enough to consider yourself "antifa" then you are probably
 working as hard as you can. I wouldn't ask you to do more.
 
 We must demand that others work for our future as well. It is unreasonable to
 demand so much of us. We must be funded and supported if we are to mobilize,
 and we must have the freedom to move and organize if we are to contest our
 enemies.

 Right, but, if we can only help and interact with people who are near us, then
 how are we going to accomplish much of anything at all? Much better I think to
 contribute to structures that we fully consent and agree to, rather than
 hoping that the wisdom of the masses pulls us through.

 Ideology is not important right now.
 
 As long as we believe that people should live as they define, that their
 rights end where another's begin, that all people are created equal, that an
 application of power to a non-consenting subject is evil, and that we will win
 
 then nothing else matters. We will figure out the specifics later. They are
 just logistics. We are united in our shared dream of health and prosperity for
 all mankind. What else could there be?

 We've always been that way in their eyes. If they make it legal, nothing will
 change in how people think of you. They might be a bit bolder if there's fewer
 legal protections, but laws have always just been words.
 
 There are more of us than there are of them. If you have community, you'll
 feel safer. I know it's scary but we can get through it together.

 to be "rich" is to have more than another.
 
 if you are happy, they are happiness poor.
 if you have community, they are alone.
 if you have serenity, they are chaotic.
 
 I am rich in very little but fire in my soul.
 
 I have enough in most cases, but I still struggle to pay rent.
 
 I am warmed by the pearl my swirling darkness has coalesced into. It nourishes
 me and keeps me aligned.

 you do so too.

 incel thinking. I'm not going to do that.
 
 They've already placed the last straw. It's only a matter of time now, the
 tide has shifted. You can't prepare for everything, and it's not a good idea
 to waste yourself in self-conflageration, but they are increasingly forcing us
 to orient our lives around them.

 thus enters the promise of technology: that we might solve the problems of
 bureaucracy once and for all by ever more effiency-aligning mechanical
 processes that produce effects which we desire - such as efficient allocation
 of medical resources such that all of humanity is protected from the ravages
 of pain and the incongruencies of our nature.
 
 Alas, that we should only conceive of success through the lens of profit.
 Perhaps another design is in order?
 
 (oh yeah also people who are in control are worried that we, like all other
 examples of natural entities, might immediately proceed to breed beyond the
 capability to cater to the needs of said entity (such as "to feed" and medical
 resources) and therefore might overburden (and therefore destroy) said system
 which allows for their sustenance and initial creation. To this I say... Yeah
 probs, what should we do about it?)

 the ability for good to win is due to the desire for evil to renounce their
 denial and follow the most durable path. trials by fire will lead only to our
 desmire [demise and desire]
 
 but unity of trust, while much harder, can lead to results more beneficial for
 our selfish selves. Essentially, cooperation for the benefit of all rising
 tides, but with the knowledge that the total pool allocated toward us will be
 greater than what we can create here by ourselves. Essentially, we as humanity
 pour such intense amounts of power and decision-making-desire, that we cause
 them to lack the capacity to know. it's inhumane, that a person should be so
 deranged. you know it's because of you, but you don't know how else to act -
 so listen to those who've helped you, the ones who've got your back. Surely
 they know what's good for you, surely they're not here as a joke - surely
 you're just as one among them, and surely it's not phrased as [char limit srr]

"what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"  Ha! That's a great expression—captures that feeling of futile busywork while something much bigger looms.  Is this a philosophical musing, or are you venting about something specific that's feeling like deck chairs territory right now?  what do you think?  Given what I know about you, I'd guess you're venting about something specific—probably a project or codebase where you're being asked to polish details while some fundamental architectural issue or looming deadline makes it all feel pointless.  Though it could also just be a Monday mood. What's sinking?  the winter is warmer than usual  Ah, the existential version then—climate change as the iceberg, and here we all are debating... whatever feels trivial by comparison.  It's a hard thing to sit with. The scale of it makes most daily activity feel like rearranging furniture. And yet life continues to demand that we arrange the furniture anyway.  Is the warm winter hitting you particularly hard this year, or just one of those moments where the cognitive dissonance surfaces?

 sometimes I think about how much more productive I'd be if I had a code editor
 that let me draw arrows and smiley faces and such alongside the code. Or if I
 could position things strangely, like two functions side-by-side with boxes
 drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...
 
 something that would output to raw txt format, but would present itself as an
 image that could be edited.

 I know it's not like that but I'm intentionally framing it that way to make a
 point about societal exclusion.
 
 nobody should be excluded.
 
 nobody should have to harm their friends to come by making them sacrifice
 their [time/labor/paycheck] in order to bring them along.
 
 we live in a post scarcity society that insists on commodification of
 everything
 
 we don't have to. A better world is within reach. It sits there, twinkling
 like asbestos resting at the base of a snowglobe, while we search and ponder
 and endlessly analyze how society sucks.
 
 there is nothing left to analyze. all that we need is to put our hands to a
 task and our feet to grass.
 
 the rest will come, and it'll come easier with time and focused attention.

 Family, Duty, Honor
 
 My family is my people and my people are who I choose.
 My duty is to serve, and I serve who I will.
 My Honor is respect, and that belief is my own.

 Yep. I am not concerned though, because of that map I shared. Whosoever shall
 draw the sword (of the people's will) shall be the righteous leader of US

 And we shall. I have faith.
