I would like to point out that this is just what robin hood is
I always fall asleep thinking of that scene in dark Knight rises where people are raiding the rich homes. Lovely
I loathe this runaway capitalist system we live in just as much as the next but this violent rhetoric is getting a bit too spicy. Let’s tax the owning class into oblivion. Take away their undeserved wealth and make them work for a living like the rest of us. Riot and rebel if our lives depend on it. But these calls for the outright slaughter of other human beings are going too far.
The owner class wrote the rules and will never give up one iota of power. If we want positive change, meaningful progress, it won’t be from working within the system.
History only teaches one lesson and it teaches it very plainly: no progress is made without bloodshed. The blood of the worker class has already been spilled, millions of times over.
Capitalists can choose to give up their property and become workers like the rest of us, or they can get the wall and then their property is redistributed. The capitalist class has colonized our society, and their enforcers are the police. And according to Franz Fanon’s books on anticolonial struggle in Algeria, colonial relations never go away unless fought with anticolonial violence to oppose the violence of the colonizers. Ultimately, violence is what is needed to force those in power to give up their wealth, and if they gave up their wealth willingly then violence would not be necessary.
The true clarity is class consciousness :3
You’re only allowed to have post-nut clarity in capitalism if you have earned a lot or better yet once you have a stable passive income. Otherwise, it’s money-horney talking in you.
And most of the days that’s what lemmy sounds like “I never had sex, this attractive guy has slept with too many girls, we gotta make sure there’s an equal distribution of girls among all of us”.
We can still talk about how that situation is unfair, but you’ll never convince me that you’re neither jealous nor horny.
This is vibes based politics.
No, an exploited class noticing their exploitation and some dude thinking he is entitled to having sex with women are not the same actually.
Oh, so we let Capitalism destroy the planet and the ability to easily grow crops …and then resort to running around in the heat doing cannibalism?.. do we know they were billionaires at this point, or is there just still enough meat on them to make them worth hunting?
That’s the problem with post-Capitalist clarity, it leaves you in a really painful situation, and there may be no other destination possible. It nay be the only place Capitalism ends.
That doesn’t even address whether there’s a market in human meat and wealthy traders… And how Capitalist that market started. Oh Capitalism may not have ended yet in this scenario…
I just rewatched some Hawkeye episodes. I’m down with this. brb got to make some more special arrows.
Thank you for your important research.
But what are you going to eat once you run out of rich people?
the food that i bought/exchanged from my local farmer for a fair price
And what are you going to pay him with?

Rolexes
if money is not existent at this point, i will, as mentioned in my original comment, exchange it for something else, be it other goods, or my services as a mechanic, electrician, metal worker, or IT-support (yes i know, kind of an outlier)
If you think a complex, modern society can be run on barter trade, I have some bad news for you.
well then, prove me wrong
But the clarity is getting shot in self defense
I don’t know. Personally I’m a fan of Piyu style reeducation (or at least a more modern and humane version of it).
Now I need to see a photo shop of a Post brand cereal named Nut Clarity, with picture of fuzzy almonds floating in milk.
ah yes, the life i yearn for
Why would you us a bow? Range is poor, and lethality is also low, esp. with the access the the ultra-wealthy have to medicine. When you hunt deer with a bow, you can usually expect to have to follow a blood trail, as it’s rarely an instant drop.
Use a .300 Winchester magnum from 1000 yards; at that distance, you still have about 850 foot-pounds of energy, which is roughly double a 9mm at point black range. With the right ammo, that’s more than enough to get the job done. You probably want a combined mechanical and ammunition accuracy of about .5 MOA range though, so that you have deviation of less than 6" at that range. It’s a challenging shot, but it’s definitely doable if you know your holds and can call the wind.
Bows can be roughly created from easily available materials, making it impossible to ban the ownership of.
And you can swap scopes depending on, uh, context.
I don’t think that particular game is hunted on the streets.
They have meticulously maintained resorts, islands, megayachts, etc for exact purpose.
It’s no proper sport tho, once the staff stops protecting them, they just stand there sucking their thumbs.
But it’s still fully worth it, once the kill is done & the empire (for at least a moment) falls, nature can’t believe what just finally happened, etc.
tactical raids on those properties.
let’s have it out.
Fire and smoke are powerful tools. Can’t stay in a bunker forever if you can’t pull air into it.
I mean, historically speaking un-tactical raids (pitchforks & torches) worked, however they did buy up a lot more police/military personnel since then.
pretty soon they’ll have formidable robots to replace the unloyal labor.
and so it begins
Feel like your chances of seeing one of the dozens of people who hold like half the wealth in the world is pretty slim on the street.
ah but we know who they are no? that means we can find them.
Most of them are paying teams of retired Navy seals to protect themselves.
I hear there are ways to track their private jets…
On a completely unrelated note: Ukraine has been modding off the shelf drones for aerial recon and munitions deployment.
I hope your bow skills are enough to kill their armed bodyguards first.
i can learn

During revolutionary conditions a lot of bodyguards end up, you know… taking stock of where their class interests lie, if you know what I mean.

I bet a couple dead goons would convince the rest to find safer employment. They do that job because they know there’s very little risk protecting some rich asshole
