    To combat capitalism you have to be critical of your own behavior, because being consistent with your convictions is essential so as not to turn the movement into a mere fashion. It is because of this lack of consequence of the affluent generation that this struggle has stagnated for half a century, making the capitalism system even stronger, as can be seen in the strong resurgence of fascism.

        I am an activist who was already in the demonstrations of 69, receiving bashings from the police then and I see what is currently happening in these new generations who believe they can fight capitalism in social networks, just like the one in this image. On the other hand, I see how one by one our struggle was distorted and more and more groups and parties of the extreme right came out. I’m old now, but I worry about the future of my children and grandchildren and I hope that one day they pee on our graves in ‘thankfulness’ for the world and society that we leave them. I am sorry for you, that you don’t see this, until it’s late.

        Greetings from a dumbass

            Except for those who have stopped thinking in front of the screen, surrounded by unnecessary products of the worst monopolists and believe that this will be enough to change the system, because they only criticize capitalism on the networks, without changing their own lives, since it can cause some strain or discomfort.

              Me looking at a picture a fucking creep took from a person they never met and was simply drinking a beverage: I know their entire political life and I’m so normal for this

                Of course, like everyone else, but there is a difference between this and connecting with a $1200 Mac from a comfortable position, just posting bad things against capitalism, hoping that this will change something.

                  That’s right. Communists can’t be comfortable, they have to be sad and miserable and hunched in the dirt.

                  Wild how you know all about what this person you never met does based on a single photo taken without consent. That’s a super cool superpower, that you are able to tell that they don’t do any organizing and their entire praxis is tweeting. You should join a carnival with that skill.

                    Naturally there is no reason to live in misery, what does not fit is the form of militancy avoiding discomfort, from the sofa in the house. Perhaps with this you understand better what I mean, for seeing it too many times.
