  1. #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;

  2. A quotation from Shaw

    All censorships exist to prevent any one from challenging current conceptions and existing institutions. All progress is initiated by challenging current conceptions, and executed by supplanting existing institutions. Consequently the first condition of progress is the removal of censorships.

    George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish playwright and critic
    Mrs. Warren’s Profession, Preface (1893)

  4. Se niegan a usar palabras comprometedoras, como “fascismo” o “genocidio”, y en cambio emplean categorías para todo lo que no sea el liberalismo centrista: “populismo”, “autoritarismo”, “extremismos”, etcétera, que desdibujan las cruciales diferencias entre izquierdas y derechas

  5. How do you show your social value in a way that’s instantly recognizable?

    "The meaning ascribed to race in the nightclub setting was related to perceptions of safety. The bouncers (many of whom are Black or Latino) claimed that letting Black or Latino Americans in might jeopardize safety at the club. However, Rivera says she saw fights between white customers frequently."

  10. I was part of Anjali4bc campaign & it was the first time in my life I'd registered with any political party. I'd hoped for a real challenge to #StatusQuo . I asked for refund & cancelled my membership. I felt #RippedOff with not being given the chance to vote for new party leader. I'd already felt distrustful of Gov't before this undemocratic hijacking by #BCNDP elites. Made me drop all trust in #BCgovernment - esp. #NewDeathParty #CareerPoliticians 👎
