so-called progressive DSA socialist movement to "abolish rent" in typical Bolsheviks regressive fashion that is well over 100 yrs old... based on the insidious idea that everyone has the entitled right to a free place to live, they can refuse to pay rent to a landlord regardless of the legal terms that the tenant agreed to. since the landlord is "evil" oppressor in typical marxist ideology, the "good" oppressed tenant has no agency or responsibility to the rental agreement. accordingly, the tenant has innate right to take ownership (i.e. steal) property for their personal use. any legal and/or physical resistance by landlord should be responded through shaming and terrorist tactics towards the landlord and their respective families...
I made this for my friend's daughter who is trying out pottery. I've been making her little instructional videos and this one is a timelapse of me trimming and putting a handle on a mug. Thought I would share in case you guys find this interesting.
Someone shared this with me who said it had been circulating in the Hasidic community. Will likely offend a lot of people these days.
Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry. She is blissfully clueless about politics and seems to be completely unaware of the culture wars. Working with her is a breath of fresh air. If you need a mood lift, I encourage you to watch this video we made together. Happy 4th, everyone! Wishing you fun/love/peace on this holiday. :) www.fionablueberry.com
Great /sad to hear how Marx’s supposed surplus value theory was entirely debunked and dascapital was an academic/practical flop, but Lenin dug up all his earlier manuscripts and the state run pseudo scholarship turned to Marx’s “alienation” theory-gramsci, critical theory et all.
I feel like this is one of the few places where I can say, “This is Trump Derangement Syndrome” while also wondering why we need things named after Trump.
Two super interesting things I’ve read lately:
(This one does refer to some violence so heads up)
