A Florida jury on Monday found banana company Chiquita Brands International liable for financing the Colombian paramilitary group Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia (AUC).
I don’t know – It feels like we should be able to use the internet to make grass roots new and hard to corrupt political movements but I don’t see that happening at all.
There’s also the 250 year empire rule which we’re at now against stability with the current system.
I honestly have no answer other than a “vote or die” but we all know that doesn’t work.
The answer is you vote or we lose democracy. That’s the simple end-all be-all answer here.
Biden might not be what every single leftist wants, but I guaranfuckingtee that it won’t just be illegal aliens in his camps. It will be you as well.
I personally don’t want to live in Gilead. I don’t want to fight in a civil war. I’d rather much prefer we vote in Biden, let the Silent/Boomers die off, so we can fix this shit.
Force all companies to be worker-owned cooperatives, Richard Wolff-style.
Also the stock market doesn’t really need to exist. It’s just gambling with extra steps, and the people who win at that game end up having control over way more than one person should ever have. Also goes along with the above, which is complete worker ownership over companies.

end citizens united – corporations aren’t people
end lobbying so shell oil doesn’t have 10000000X time and money to affect the government as a person does.
Quit assigning good/bad labels to companies that operate within the law and furious pursue laws that make us more equal, richer and safer overall
???

Yeah, but how are you going to realistically do that?
I’d love to know. Because I hate citizens united. But what do you propose people do about this?

I can almost smell the Gen X coming off your grim resignation to boomer die off as a new beginning. We’ve waited impotently for so long.
Hah, I’m actually a millennial, but it’s happening to the tune of 5,500 boomers a day. Even more for the silent gen.
I know its someone’s grandma or granpa but 924,000 is an exciting number.
yeah but that just kicks the can down the road, not that I disagree or anything. I don’t know of any real solution.
Okay so what’s your option then?
Because sitting out wont do anything, and acting like nothing is happening for people is also not doing any good.
ending capitalism. they won’t let us otherwise.
I said realistically. That’s not realistic at all. It’d be great to have a post scarcity economy. I’d love it. But that’s not realistic.
african countries are doing this right now. we have a consistent method already.
all you need is actually wanting it. doing nothing is not gonna fix anything.
