Just as much as Link was a part of this community- so has Sakher been. Bluesky mods are awful.

It's Reem 🇵🇸🍉 @reeeeeeem.bsky.social · 7h

Sakher’s account was shut down — the only place where he spoke to the world about his pain and his suffering.

That account was his only voice, his way to survive and keep going.

Today, Sakher lost his last connection to the world.💔

Complement with comments, don't skip‼️

Even further in;

"Among all the peoples of antiquity, the piling-up of gold and silver appears at first as a priestly and royal privilege, since the god and king of commodities pertains only to gods and kings.

Only they deserve to possess wealth as such."

Glad we were on the same page, Karl.

Artificial need is what the economist calls, firstly, the needs which arise out of the social existence of the individual;

Ossington can read, but since Jay's Wafflesgate, he's terrified to post on Bluesky.

There are times that he reads the shit humans post, and he slams the laptop closed and crawls to the couch as if to say "enough of this humanity BS, time to resume acting like a teddy bear."

3. If able, purchase in person. This one does need a lot of clarification, because you have material conditions such as food deserts, disabilities, and the feasibility that delivery as a service provides. Within reason, adhere to alt methods such as pdfs and not purchasing from Amazon (for example)

stressing 3 points of engagement with the internet in its current capitalist-controlled environment:

1. Steal; books, movies, episodes - download whatever you need, feasible. Oblivious, utilize funds for those who should be supported for their work.
2. Ad-blockers. Get comfortable with workarounds.

The fact that all these Bush-era monsters not only never answered for their crimes, but still wield power, should be enough evidence that this system isn’t for us.

The Hague is too kind. They belong in the cold ground.

This is what happens when you let war criminals get away with their crimes. They will come back and do it again. I feel a lot of guilt about this. My generation was there, we watched it all happen and at some point we just gave up and forgot about him. Big mistake.

but they did such complicated math to determine ~32,000 jobs had been wiped out of existence

32,000 "very real jobs", just like the 20,000 or whatever "very real jobs" that were "created" in previous months

The obsession with manufacturing is just the culture war by other means. “Real jobs” are fake. “Fake jobs” are real. Just read Baudrillard.

well lots of other factors too, but those two are good starts, along with:

1. Masking, with N95s / Respirators
2. Avoid using generative AI
3. Oppose tyranny, exploitation and oppression (punch up!)
4. Defend those suffering (trans folks being harassed, people getting snatched by ICE, Palestinians)

I can say without a doubt that it's only truly revolutionary people that:

1. Give what I have to say any kind of respectability and consideration (formulations, theory thoughts)

2. Are willing to directly help people in my situation out (mutual aid, material aid, etc)

that's how you be a comrade!
