  • “All is for all! If the man and the woman bear their fair share of work, they have a right to their fair share of all that is produced by all, and that share is enough to secure them well-being. No more of such vague formulas as “The right to work,” or “To each the whole result of his labour.” What we proclaim is The Right to Well-Being: Well-Being for All!”

    We are capable of producing far more than we as individuals consume with modern technology. It’s not a question of capability, it’s a question of logistics, a question of messaging, and a question of how much inequity we are willing to accept.

    All is for all. It took all of us to get here, everyone deserves a share of the rewards.








  • So, do what you need to do for your family. But I’ll say this. I spent time looking into this last go round because I knew Biden was a temporary reprieve. I’m the parent of a trans kid, we did not leave the country for several reasons.

    The entire western world is experiencing this dramatic rise in fascism. There’s no guarantee that you will actually avoid this long term.

    Many countries (especially the UK) have draconian immigration rules, see above note about fascism.

    We ultimately decided to move to a blue state, from a red one, primarily for safety reasons, and made it happen over a couple years. We are far happier in this situation and are now able to help extract other loved ones from similar situations.

    Again, do what you need to do for yours and your family’s safety, but you’re in for a tough go of it regardless of what you choose.

    ETA: I went as far as interviewing for some jobs in Canada after building my immigration profile and starting the job search in NZ.


  • That sentiment might be the one that pisses me off the most.

    I wanted her to win. I voted for her myself.

    I also saw how her campaign was fucking up constantly. Neutering Walz, embracing early 00s Republicans from Cheney to Frum, ceding all argument on immigration to the fascists…

    The list goes on and on.

    The Democrats had a billion dollars and all the goodwill in JULY. I’m so mad at them. The party needs to burn and something else needs to be rebuilt in its place.

    I am not interested in voting for the candidate of choice of Liz Cheney, Richard Spencer, and the Lincoln Project.
