@chr honestly, a lot of what we like to call "human nature" or "greed" is part of social conditioning. we are in a society where we're told to look out for ourselves, taught that life is some big competition to amass capital or at the very least stay afloat. we have ingrained in us a sense of artificial scarcity thanks to how our society operates.
if we radically changed society and waited a generation or two, i believe this would change.

@chr @amphetamine an end to capitalism is also and always:
- an end to wage labor
- an end to bosses
- an end to cops and policing
- an end to imperialism
- an end to colonial systems
- an end to property and propertarian relations
- an end to social death (see Ruth Wilson Gilmore)
- an end to ALL systems of domination and exploitation

basically, a friend went to a bbq joint for lunch on monday, and long story short, my phone ended up suggesting "Solutions" as the word to go after "Gender," cuz of course gender is going to get involved in any discussion between two trans people, so i went with it, and ve responded with...
gender.solutions
so guess what i worked on tonight
that's about all i can say about that

@chr i think your last sentence captures it: capitalism is like neo-feudalism, where a few control the many right down to our ability to survive. when i say end capitalism, i mean end *that*. i mean there is enough for everyone and those who inflict scarcity have no right.

@ghost This is the anarchist position. This is also (if we’re being honest) the imperialist and the capitalist position.
Nobody actually believes in borders.

borders are essentially just lines drawn in sand. they are bullshit and should be ignored and destroyed.
