Imagine having to smell that everywhere you go.
The US and Israel are deeply sick nations, they practice the vulture capitalism form of imperialism only surpassed in brutality by Leopold of Belgium or some shit.
And what’s worse is that the populace tacitly approves of it, in the age of the internet and unlimited information. How much did the average Belgian even know?
I live among some of the worst people to exist in history, and I am one of them. This supposed guilt should have driven me to do a lot more but it did not.
Comrade, don't beat yourself up over this. I don't say this only out of compassion, though that much is true, as I've often struggled with guilt much like yours, but also because it is strategically important to know who the enemy is: it is not you, who wields no capital, but the ruling class who chooses to direct its power and capital towards its imperialist aims. It is not us who are destroying the planet; they are. It is our historic mission to fight back and end class oppression, so turn your unfounded guilt into righteous anger and look for ways to mobilize it against the evil you described
doesn't the lionshare of the responsibility fall on us for the collective silent consent for the ruling classes' actions?
What we all should do can't be discussed on a public website
No use in talking about what a bad person you are for not doing something instead of doing something.
