A study just came out showing the majority of Americans can’t afford a minimal quality of life/basic cost of living. The majority. The richest country in the world is failing to provide for most of its citizens while the billionaires get richer. Remember this the next time they talk about making America healthy again. People need universal health care and basic income. Access to clean air and water. An end to food deserts and inequality. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cost-of-living-income-quality-of-life/

"I've heard people suggest that products that last slow economies. That isn't true. They change who gets to make money." This right here is probably the real driver of disposability. If things last, rich parasites don't make excess profits from people continually replacing manufactured goods. Instead ordinary people keep the income from repairs in their circles. Can't allow working class people to thrive, or they won't be willing to be pawns any longer.

If I hear one more person talk about “putting our brightest people toward solving climate change”, I will scream. Climate change is not some deep mystery waiting for a scientific breakthrough: we know exactly what causes it and how we address that. We have SOLVED climate change. The problem is not “finding the solution”, the problem is convincing literally anyone in power that the solution is better than building billionaire bunkers in new zealand.

If you're question is "Well what am I supposed to do?!?!" Great!!!! That is an *awesome* place to start. If you had to start from scratch all by yourself, start with "root cause analysis" and then work backwards to a solution. Chances are, though, you don't. Chances are someone (and many someones) are already working on it. So the pragmatic answer right now is sort out what problem you want to fight against, and then find groups working towards that, and then join those groups, and then find a place to pitch in or lend a shoulder. I recommend starting local and working local. Often times you can work a little bit and it scales across multiple areas. And if you're worried about "talking to people", don't worry, there's a metric shit ton you can do without interacting with a lot of people. I literally went out and planted food trees for about thirty minutes last weekend. I didn't talk to many people at all. And that's going to feed people. And I'm going to do it again and again as I have time. Not talking to people. Just planting food forests. I am absolutely certain that YOU can find something that you can do while hating being around other people that still undercuts all the bullshit of those folks that want to stick THEIR NOSE into all of OUR BUSINESS. Fuck them. Go out and do something within YOUR capabilities and YOUR comfort zones that sticks a thorn into THEIR sides and helps out you, your family, your friends, and your neighbors.

Sometimes I wish there was a way I could plug something directly into my head and folks could see and feel what I think about what’s possible. I’m often annoyed with the present because of all distractions that weight us down and don’t give us space to dream. I feel our imaginations are neutered because we are so bogged down by having to survive systems that want to keep impoverished. I can’t exactly tell you exactly where I learned to alchemize that rage into fuel to build stuff, but it’s become a source of motivation even as we watch old decrepit systems crumble. I so strongly FEEL a better more human centric sustainable future is within our grasp, right now if we embrace that we need to let the old world go. That thought sits in my brain constantly, which is why I’m so relentless about pushing forward. We’re almost there.

I want to springboard off of your post, as a random person living in the US, if that is okay. This is to the international community. There are many people here in the United States who want to take action, they do care, but they are scared of the consequences. They see all the people around them going on about their business, the siren call of normalcy bias makes wanting to go about your normal life irresistible. There are also a lot of people, myself included, who live in predominantly red (as in fascist republican) areas that believe when they start pushing back it could lead to hardship and ruin. We are a heavily corporate controlled society that has been plied with bread and circuses for far too long. That's why it is important that we, including the international community, keep shouting from the rooftops that this is not normal. There are answers to our fears here in the states. Efforts like mutual aid and grassroots networks of like-minded individuals. I see this happening. I'm personally working hard to get myself into a position where I can be more effective, and I try to encourage other people doing that. We don't have to attack the entire thing. We can pool our individual talents for the benefit of the wider resistance movement. But, again, we're still learning what all this means and how to do it. Because it's not like in the movies we all grew up on, the ones that lied to us and told us we were all just embarrassed heroes, or main characters. It's very different when the production isn't being directed by Steven Spielberg. All I ask is, please do not give up on us. You're disappointed, angered, frustrated, pissed off, etc, at the lack of the average American's response to this dive into a fascist state that America is turning in to. I get that. I share those feeling. Just please don't give up on those of us who know this is bad but are having to learn resistance from the ground up.

Mastodon is my online echo chamber of people who give a crap about what happens to other people. My long inaccessible FB account was my glimpse closer to reality of a world where people DGAF about other people. Endless posts about beach vacations, lunch, new purchases. I had to leave FB because it got too much. I preferred to believe that more people were like me. But this is also an illusion. I finally understand how concentration camps came to be and how life carried on despite it. My own sibling in the US has told me that things are "pretty normal" where he is. I don't see how people around you getting arrested, your government literally building a concentration camp and flying people to foreign lands can be classified as "normal". But he just goes about his business. All he cared about was paying less taxes and making money. He will soon discover the cost of 'normal' was having scientists keep track of diseases and prevent their outbreaks, educators toiling to maintain an educated workforce, air traffic controllers keeping planes from falling out of the sky. All he ever saw were the dollars that things cost him, not the benefits, direct or indirect. As things falls apart, he won't care until it affects him personally. It will be too late. As long as he can keep doing his work, running his business, selling his stuff... it's all "normal" But he is a better reflection of "normal" than I am. The army of people who care here are outside the norms. And it's the inertia of not caring that allows horrors to go on. The gatekeepers of media will make sure the population continues to care as little as possible. They will keep showing us beach photos and handbag purchases. Distributed information sharing like Mastodon will be important in any kind of resistance efforts as the information will still be visible. Then the next challenge is getting people who don't think any of this is important to care. You don't need everyone, but enough people. You need people who just want to get to work and do their thing to think that the lives of other people are worthy of caring about.
