#Money, the interesting thing about it is if you #exist in #poverty, you desperately need it for your day to day survival, then if your on the opposite end as in being a multi million or billionaire in reality money means nothing, because everything you own and do is leveraged off of debt that you one don't actually own and second can never actually satisfy, and the rules of the game are very different for those in poverty, and the rules are slightly different if your in the middle, but if your on top, the rules don't apply to you unless somehow your generation and hoarding of wealth imposes upon another top income holder, basically if your in poverty all the way to the bottom end of double digit millions, your beholden to the entire state if it where, and beyond that the entire state apparently is beholden to you and your ability to leverage debt, it is a rigged system of epic inequality and strongly embraces prejudice against the rest of us whom simply would appreciate the basics in life to be readily available without so much turmoil, and stress to our mental and physical wellbeing, money is an illusion of power and has left far to many of us going hungry, literally;

Die politische Gegenwart ist paradox: Während den meisten Akteur*innen in Politik, Gesellschaft und Bewegungen klar ist, dass angesichts der Klimakatastrophe ein Weitermachen wie gehabt unmöglich ist, ist eine Alternative zum Status quo so unvorstellbar wie noch nie.

Michael Hirsch und Kilian Jörg starten den Versuch, die linke Vorstellungskraft wieder aufzuforsten – inspiriert von dem Konzept Zone à défendre – ZAD, der „zu verteidigenden Zone“. Die berühmte ZAD in Notre-Dame-des-Landes besteht seit über 15 Jahren als ein aus Verwertungszusammenhängen herausgelöstes Gebiet, in dem mit neuen sozialen Beziehungen, mit neuen Verhältnissen zu Arbeit und Ökologie experimentiert wird. Können diese Erfahrungen auf größere Maßstäbe übertragen werden?

Durchlöchert den Status quo! Autonome Zonen, radikale Demokratie und Ökologie

A quotation from Henry Commager

What is the new loyalty? It is, above all, conformity. It is the uncritical and unquestioning acceptance of America as it is — the political institutions, the social relationships, the economic practices. It rejects inquiry into the race question or socialized medicine, or public housing, or into the wisdom or validity of our foreign policy. It regards as particularly heinous any challenge to what is called “the system of private enterprise,” identifying that system with Americanism. It abandons evolution, repudiates the once popular concept of progress, and regards America as a finished product, perfect and complete.

Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist
Essay (1947-09), "Who Is Loyal to America?" Harper's Magazine, Vol. 195, No. 1168

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

We understand the philosophy of those who offer resistance, of those who conduct a counter offensive against the American people’s march of social progress. It is not an opposition which comes necessarily from wickedness — it is an opposition that comes from subconscious resistance to any measure that disturbs the position of privilege.
   It is an unfortunate human failing that a full pocketbook often groans more loudly than an empty stomach.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882–1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933–1945)
Speech (1940-11-01), Campaign Address, Brooklyn Academy of Music, New York

If you feel needs to brown-nose #politicians - we ain't going to get on too well. Trying to suck up to/defend/justify politicians goes against everything I believe in. I don't give a fuck if they're white or POC politician poopers either. ANY politician who upholds status quo, corrupt BS - are in the same sellout books. I've called out several Asian #political #sellouts. I've called out #whitewashed sellouts in my own fucking family. No one gets a free pass on this.

It's the ultimate personal choice to place government people above the citizens. It protects the shitass #StatusQuo.

A quotation from Madeleine L'Engle

When I find myself hotly defending something, when I am, in fact, zealous, it is time for me to step back and examine whatever it is that has me so hot under the collar. Do I think it’s going to threaten my comfortable rut? Make me change and grow? — and growing always causes growing pains. Am I afraid to ask questions?

Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

Don't be fooled by #Beijing: This is a vote for stability, continuity and the #statusquo. This is NOT a vote for escalation. Only #China is looking to escalate the situation and for excuses to do so. Stand with democratic and free Taiwan! #TaiwanisnotChina

Die #Botschaft, dass es ein #Morgen gibt sei #stärker als die der #LetzteGeneration die #suggeriert, dass es das nicht gäbe, es sei denn alle lassen ihre #Auto​s stehen. Das #glaube einem #niemand.

The movement masquerades as #representatives of #publicmorality for the #publicgood, but what is also clear is that these #antiLGBTQIA+ groups are also anti-#humanrights and anti-#womensrights, and intent on keeping the #statusquo of #inequalities, #separation, and #oppression of #minorities, the #poor and #vulnerable
