Wasn’t it Lenin that said something about the bourgeoisie selling the proletariat the rope they would be hung with??
Solution: steal
LABOR IS ENTITLED TO ALL IT PRODUCES
TAKE WHAT IS ALREADY YOURS
CARPE PITCHFORK
The billionaires need to be reminded of this.
Does this mean whoever built your house can just walk in any time they please?
EDIT +3 / -9 pretty much what I expected. Good job guys.
No. It means the group of laborers who built the house should get the brunt of the profit in building it.
LEFTISTS HATE THIS ONE WEIRD TRICK
Just reach out and grab it.
What are they gonna do, take it back? Good luck, I have a pitchfork!
Locked down or behind a glass cage I bet

If you can’t make a torch or pitchfork at home out of shit you have lying around, I don’t need you on my side in the revolution.
I’m more of a cocktail guy myself
I hear they named a pretty good one after the Soviet foreign minister during the Winter War…
Tape a sparkler to a bell jar full of spicy dino juice for a safer, less leaky, and more windproof cocktail.
Why make a cocktail when whisky does fine on its own?
There’s always need for provisions.
Welcome to
CostcoGlobo-Mart. I love you.
What about a pointed stick?
Fresh fruit not good enough for you?
outlawed a couple years ago. can’t have any of that
Torches and pitchforks became obsolete about a century ago anyway, the offshore bank account and private jet are too effective as counters. Now its boycotting and voting.
I’d say it’s nicked M-15’s in the US and 3D printed guns everywhere, nowadays
Still runs into the problem of people not being on the same continent as you any time they feel like it, along with their accumulated wealth. I suppose you could use an ICBM.
Yeah, good luck voting your way out of a system that’s controlled by exactly the people you’re trying to get rid of…
Better luck than thinking you’ll have one of the few successful mass uprisings over one of the thousands that just gets crushed and gets like 2 sentences in a history book. Slow reform actually has a modest success rate, as we ourselves demonstrated under people like Teddy and FDR. Just not as sexy.
Ummmm, rioting always has been and still is on the menu.
Boycotting and voting hasn’t worked that well in 4 decades, time to drag the owner class into the streets and remind them what happened to Rome and France.
Now that deserves a good luck.
Side note, this is not the first time rich people have taken over the country, incidentally. We’ve had to fix this before.
In California you can only buy torches and pitchforks that are approved by the state. Guess how many inexpensive ones are approved (lol, none). If you want to carry your torch or pitchfork outside of your house it either needs to be locked in a box or you need to buy a permit, which runs about $1200. There’s also a fee for a background check anytime you want to buy torch fuel, and they’re raising it by 500%.
Ok but to be fair, do you want it to be easier for idiots to burn your state down?
Ok I typed that and immediately realized an idiot can probably still buy a Bic. Maybe… Maybe I’m an idiot
I’m actually talking about guns, and yes, they should be easier to get. The government and the wealthy should concern themselves with improving material conditions to avoid unrest instead of trying to monopolize the capacity for violence.
Oh. Uh. I support access to firearms for things like environmental conservation, but people with them are more of a danger to themselves, including myself. I’ll support your right to defend yourself, but I won’t go down that road further mentally. Wish you the best though
