"We need to take it by force" does not necessarily follow "They won't give up power voluntarily". People with civil war fantasies need to have a sit down and have a long fucking think about what that implies. What we need to do is revive a culture of labor solidarity that we've allowed to wither since the heyday of labor unions in the country.
If there is hope, wrote Winston, it lies in the proles. If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, because only there in those swarming disregarded masses, 85 per cent of the population of Oceania, could the force to destroy the Party ever be generated. The Party could not be overthrown from within.
I have watched so many video essays that I read "but Zoe" in the voice of Zoe Bee
Me listening to Democracy Now (fast fwding the constant global rape during war) taking little man to school while he reads in the back... Ignoring me as I ramble about all collar people being the working people, standing by unions, and rising tides.
Same vibes as this lil guy:
But if you use violence against the people who perpetrate violence against everyone who isn't part of their protected group, you're just as bad as them. /s
It all depends. For about 97% of the world population, anyone earning more than 40k USD annual salary is part of the 5% elite
I'd wager more than half the population asking for forced takeover enters that range.
So if y'all willing, don't worry, we third world countries are coming for you. We know you will surrender really easy
Advocating for violence, understandable and at the same time completely despromoted of imagination.
Idc how pissed you are, you're like "them" if you can only think of ways that involve force, usually masses don't make the best decisions when going on a rampage.
Make no mistakes, we have to change things, but generalising an incredibly complex situation to a sentence.....
Edit: uuu someone's afraid to actually having to find intelligent ways to make positive changes
