    Or… you know… build a better society.

    Slowly, naturally and directly in your personal environment, where you have the most influence. Help out your neighbors. Build support groups for child care or start a local soup kitchen. There are so many great ways to implement mutual aid and solidarity amongst the people.

      Slowly, naturally and directly in your personal environment, where you have the most influence.

      This is literally what wealthy people do and it greatly upsets of the non-wealthy.

      The rugged individualist lifestyle is most benefiticial to the wealthy. People in that mindset aren’t honest with themselves on all the ways they feed the machine.

          Other rich people, yes. Their children are handed positions other work towards for decades.

          The point I’m trying to make is that think you can remove yourself from the machine by fucking off into nature plays to their favor.

          Also, not doing things because the wealth do it, is reactionary. What matters is who; extend the hand beyond one’s tight socioeconomic group, reach downward and pull up.
