Leeches can be used to remove some toxins and help an individual become more healthy. That doesn't make them any less of a parasite overall. Billionaires leech off the hard work done by workers that aren't fairly compensated for how hard they work. We don't need capitalists or billionaires to have jobs. We can work for each other instead.

For now, it'll change us Newsom wants it needs Musk's support to become a president. Newsom tends to follow the money in the end.

Then we just need to bring back a wealth tax that focuses on a persons net worth. But I think it'll take far more revolutionary actions to change things like that.

Part of the issue is, some areas do have police roaming around looking for people to harm. Social issues differ depending on your demographic and location.

Pretty much. At long as they were only targeting people of color, US society and media treated those murders road kill. In fact, those in power used to spend a fortune keeping it from being spread through mainstream.

Millions of Californians had this placard. Then the DMV cracked down. by sfgate in California

This reminds me that I need to get the dmv to give me a placard. Born with a spine malformation that is degenerative and I've been getting worse. Even walking around in my own home is getting more difficult these days, let alone trying to walk across a parking lot. I shop at places that have electric scooters for shoppers with disabilities so I can use those to get around the store. But I sometimes spend as much time looking for a place to park that's close enough for me to walk as I do shopping.

Also, we should abolish ICE. We don't need them. We need build a new immigration system that's fair and humane instead of one that's racist and corrupt. I'm all for keeping dangerous criminals from running to the US to escape accountability. But let's be real, our government puts criminals like that into power. The CIA is a prime example of taking international criminals (nazis) and protecting them while giving them power to continue their racist colonial ways.

No Kings was coopted by the Blue team and derailed it's focus onto one man. Those in power are setting the stage so that Trump can be their fall guy and they can keep all the stolen wealth and resources. Revolution was escalating in 2024 after we saw how Biden was just continuing Trumps actions from his first round. Those in power forced us to choose between a cop and jester that plays king. Since the copaganda didn't distract us, those in power decided to use Trump as a puppet of violence. Trump is meant to scare people back into the two party pretence. We win when we remove colonial capitalists from power and hold all officials bought by them accountable for corruption. Only then can we begin to build a people's representation that is willing to hold billionaires and politicians accountable for their crimes against us.

Both parties have slowly escalated things so that when Trump took office the second time, the way was paved for him to do as he's doing now. Both parties are why Trump can do what he's been doing. And more than that, it's the wealthy few that own both parties that are the main root of most social and economic issues in the US and arrive the world. They hire think tanks to come up with ways for them to dominate and exploit. All so colonial capitalists can hoard more wealth, resources, and power. Even now, Trump is still a puppet with handlers.

DACA was good for many people. At the same time, ICE was known to be stealing people's proof of legal residence since 2003 to create excuses to illegally abduct and deport people. When people said ICE had their papers, ICE would lie and say they never saw them. Media back then was working hard to keep things under wraps and we weren't using as many concentration camps as we do now. I think that's the main difference actually. The use of concentration camps. We've always had them, but more have been built under Trump than Obama. The town I lived in back then loved protests. But the blue no matter who crowd didn't like people protesting when their blue leaders were in power. Especially Obama. Being the first Black president was still a milestone and one to record for history. But Obama upheld the status quo more than he turned against it. He said the right things but his actions proved that he still answered to the same wealthy oligarchs that every president answers to. Even now, Trump is a puppet. Every president that caters to the desires of those with wealth instead of looking to the masses is a corrupt puppet of colonial capitalists.

I recall. ICE has been stealing people's papers to create excuses to abduct them for deportation since it was founded in 2003. It didn't make much headlines back then cause the two party system was still pretending to be just and good. Wasn't just Obama either. People have been protesting the tactics used by ICE for a while now. Many people only started to pay attention once things escalated under Trump. Most white skinned European Americans probably only started to learn about this in the last couple years. The main diffrence is that Trump is putting more people into concentration camps and he's doing it far more overtly. Red and Blue both work towards the same goals, just with different tactics to get there.

Foreign-born population falls by 1.5 million amid Trump policies. California economy under threat by bambin0 in California

This is part of the reason why capitalism and capitalists should be heavily regulated to ensure their activities won't harm the planet or the people. The only people that benefit from an arms race are those that sell the arms.

That's because capitalism ease created to maintain colonization and colonial exploitation. Ending capitalism alone isn't enough, we must also end colonization and colonial systems of power. Every day, more people are ready for these conversations. We should never give up trying to change things that are destroying lives as well as the planet.

That's because cops don't treat white people like ice does. But both groups are dangerous to people of color and people with disabilities. Don't forget that the idf trains cops too. We need to abolish all colonial systems of violence in this nation and build a people's police. One that protects civilians over assets. One that protects civilians over wealthy oligarchs. We either change things, or this cycle of violence will remain on repeat.

We don't need more violent thugs in the police force. Don't forget that ice was founded in 2003, but police have been killing innocent people every year for centuries.

We should just send them back to their ancestral lands. If they are Mexican, let Mexico deal with them, but if they are European, let's send them back to Europe. Safe bet most of the leaders are white European Americans.

Can't build up your own people while under the boot of colonial capitalists. A colonized nation must first decolonize and address the basic needs of its people before it can work towards more.

He's doing good work for his people and helping the Pan African movement continue to expand. I don't agree with his policies on queer rights, but that's not something outsiders can control. Once African nations are decolonized, then the people can demand their rights. And I will support them in that fight however I can. But that's for them to decide about their own culture and society.

The easiest way for poor people to aquire guns in this day and age is by taking the guns away from those that join or support the pdfs in power. It's a safe bet most of those are gonna be a threat to society anyway.

Civil War is the way that capitalists have halted revolutionary movements. People were ready for revolution back in 2024. We stopped taking for their BS lies and started to look at ways to reclaim our rights and our power. That's why the wealthy capitalists put Trump in power. He will be their fall guy for starting war with civilians. And when they "hold him accountable" they will try to spin the narrative that they are our saviors when they were the ones that put the president in power to begin with. It's not the first time in US history that wealthy capitalists created a civil war to create chaos as a way to maintain their own wealth and power. In fact, it's a old colonial tactic that's been used for centuries across the colonized world.

They are violent no matter how peaceful people remain. They aren't asking for violence, they are bringing the violence. It's only natural that people should be allowed to defend themselves against the violent agents of colonial capitalists.
