Sick who wants to go dance to Tom Paine’s bones with me.
wasn’t Thomas Paine already an early proto-socialist. Like how anarchy and direct democracy as political ideas can be traced back to the Puritan movement in England
That’s a slippery slope because you could call Aristotle or Adam Smith proto-socialists too. There used to be different assumptions on how labor and land were supposed to be used before capitalism really cemented itself.
Thomas Paine go on Hexbear
Also, huge LMAO at everyone in this thread seeing a potential radicalization (serious or not) and their first instinct is to desperately talk each other out of it. That’s your Western defeatism acting up, and it’s just a nervous tic. Don’t give into it.
Posters who constantly post unfunny doge memes justifying fruit companies murdering striking workers with death squads suddenly very serious and concerned with limiting the excesses of capitalism because THERES A FREAKING CHEETO ON TWITTER!!!
Sanders asking anti war protestors who paid them. :dem:
