“There were two “Reigns of Terror,” if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the “horrors” of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror—that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.” - Mark Twain

Lowkey something you would hear at a punk concert
Check out Heyoka if you like punk/metal ans don’t mind it being french. They have a cover of El Pueblo Unido which is pretty fire. Idk why a French band covered a spanish song but I fw it
Damn, Idk if he was ahead of his time or if it has just always been like this
If I am not already on a list I’d be very upset tbh
Okay that’s admittedly fair
Sure but I can’t be removed from the memories of the participants

I think that’s fair. Wish it did not exist with all my heart. I cope by finding humor in its absurdity
I just noticed that was shoeonhead lmao
It is for pecking at their lenses
Of course, I don’t like the term “elite” either and honestly should have altered the meme
Fascist don’t “revolt” because they do not inact revolutionary change. They preserve the existing dominance of capital. They also aren’t the majority of people, they only seem that way in the western context. Most people do not live in imperial core nations. The next big revolutions will come out of Africa, Latin America, and Asia. These revolutions will weaken the imperial states to the point that they to can be revolted against (imo)
There is a reason we identify bourgeoisie through their direct connection to the system of production as owners of the means of production. You can’t swap out elite for “any other group” because the reasoning would be gone. “Any other group” is not directly responsible for the impoverishment of the imperial periphery, for their acute destitution. “Any other group” is not funding paramilitary death squads to control resources that make number go up. “Any other group” doesn’t knowingly uphold the system that makes homelessness necessary. “Any other group” doesn’t regularly commit genocides. If you are comfortable trying to vote these people out of existence feel free to walk into that swamp but don’t try convincing others to do so.
I understand your fear. I am also scared. I’m deathly fucking terrified of revolution. I am terrified of what the state will do to me for daring to challenge them. I am terrified of what they will do to the people I love. I am terrified of what it will take for the average American to fight back. I desperately want to run and flee the country but we are beyond that epoch. There is no safe place to run to. It is cowardice to blind yourself and believe we can simply ask them to stop. Hell, it isn’t just cowardice, it’s dangerous. The longer we wait to end this system the more people it will slaughter. I fear the state but my fear is outweighed by the shame of doing nothing while I watch it commit unspeakable acts in my name.
Revolution is not a tea party or a bed of roses. Any revolutionary will tell you this, all of them know it. I know in my heart I won’t live to my parents age. I know in my heart I will see and experience horrors they have never suffered. Most likely I die a miserable lonely death not even knowing the fates of those I love. And I’m angry about it.
Collapse is already coming, climate change is going to fuck us. If we are going to collapse anyway why not revolt and save those who can be saved. They certainly won’t be saved by our current leadership.






I know in my heart this picture was taken in Serbia
