You don’t.
What can be done within capitalism is dispersion, displacement, disenfranchisement, intimidation, sabotage, etc. You know all the tricks the GOP and the torries use to hollow out things like USPS, UK rail, the NHS, Medicare/Medicaid, Social Security, public schooling, basic infrastructure? That. These tools exist. Ultimately we won’t even start to move in that direction until we, as a society, grow comfortable with the idea that it’s better for a cop to die than to kill.
It’s also being pitched as a plan to redress income inequality. Because everybody knows the way to fix income inequality is to create a program for small business loans so you can shoot a load of cheap money all over the people who already own the means of production.
They don’t understand that the people who own businesses in a community don’t fucking live there and the people who work in a community don’t own that community. We, the workers, rent our places in the communities we live in, and these assholes are so out of touch they don’t even know the difference.
That might not be strictly true re: international students. Visas are a bitch, some are choosing to maintain their Visa by staying in school no matter what. Hell, where I work we’ve seen a slight increase in last-second international applicants who don’t get financial aid or scholarships
If you dissolve styrofoam into gasoline it’ll make the gas sticky, sure, but you could piss the fire out because it won’t burn very well. The more stuff you put in, the greater the energy requirement to continue the reaction.
Pure H202 might be an explosive but the stuff you use to treat wounds is diluted to the point it won’t blow up no matter what you do to it.
Ha, I did a data scrape for CA-7 for a campaign once a few years ago. Also I live near-ish enough to know the area. It’s main Elk Grove, which used to be a little aggy town, but was taken over by white flight and is now just an exurb of Sacramento. It’s this disgusting little extremely wealthy enclave of people stealing aggy valor and they’ve got a very '60s sense of “you don’t belong here, boy” going on.
I fucking haaaaate Elk Grove and most of Contra Costa County.
benzene is the compound added to accelerate burning. Well, I don’t know if that was the intent, but it would definitely get the job done. It burns hotter and faster than gasoline. It also is so toxic that the oil industry stopped using it and admitted there is no safe concentration of benzene. I didn’t even finish ochem and I’m more terrified of benzene than radiation.
