"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

what it says on the title, we just violate and parasitize humanity and i don't even know if we should be kept around if a global revolution actually happens

i honestly feel like our only use right now is sheer body count and to be harvested for resources in a post-rev world, the latter being punishment for what we've done to the world

am i correct or just pessimistic? forgive me if my thoughts come off as off-putting but my frustrations toward my species leaves me wanting the global south to have a proper form of revenge

yes, you can send me 10 bucks and you'll be helping fight imperialism in argentina. /s

on a serious note, someone needs to kill the fascists in the us so yes you can be helpful. don't torture yourself.

Arming yourself for self-defense is good. Learn first-aid, medical skills, trauma-response and be the best possible field medic you can be. There is plenty of roles for those who do not pull the trigger.
