Sure I'll think about them, as soon as they cede all their wealth and give their companies to the workers.

Educate, agitate, organize. They will never do this willingly.
100% homie.
And if we don't get it?
SHUT IT DOWN
Sieze it. If you're interested, I have an introductory Marxist reading list.
I'm pretty well educated on marxist theory already, but I'll always take more book recommendations!
Thanks! π«‘
That's right, seize not freeze. :)
Just a reminder, if you think what happened on DDD Day was murder and not self defense, you don't have a problem with violence, you just hate when poor people do it.
a quick Google turned up nothing useful, what is DDD Day?
I guess this past Wednesday is unofficially Deny Defend Depose Day https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killing_of_Brian_Thompson
Oh god. I was reading through the page and this gem was down in the section on the response from healthcare companies:
Another executive was quoted saying "What's most disturbing is the ability of people to hide behind their keyboards and lose their humanity."
Says the people who hide behind keyboards, phone calls, employees, doctors, guards, police as they hurt people they don't know. Talk about losing your humanity.
they've become like politicians or lawyers or police or soldiers who don't care about the damage they've inflicted on millions of people's lives and believe that what they're doing is justified because it's for some "greater good" and never mind that the people they're harming were never part of that greater good.

Nationalize:
- insurance
- hospitals
- prisons
- public transit
It's perfectly possible to have your capitalist desires and still have a nice socialist structure to protect the people.
Housing should be on that list as well
From my experience living in a very socialist country; fair housing can be handled by rules instead of 'nationalizing'. So the rules and pricing around them would be handled by the government, but not the houses themselves.
A big one I'm missing is schools.

Don't eat the rich π₯Ίπ
I just want dental insurance to be included in basic health insurance plans for all. Nothing too radical.
Republicans: Best we can do is toothpaste coupons
Too radical for the Republicans.

I don't condone the murder of the CEO of a healthcare insurance company who reject 32% of claims.....
But I understand.

Just a reminder but the bourgeoisie are the "middle class", and that the CEO who was killed is part of a capitalist oligopoly.
The bourgeoisie haven't been targeted here, an aristocrat has.
Aristocrats were an offshoot of feudalism, the bourgeoisie are the Capital Owners. The "middle class" is the petite bourgeoisie, who are Capital Owners that must labor, ie small business owners. This was the bourgeoisie, not an aristocrat.
The aristocrats were largely disposed of via bourgeois revolution. Now there is a haute bourgeoisie, like Brian Thompson (net worth >$40M), and a shrinking petite bourgeoisie, A.K.A. the middle class.

ShitLibs when somebody kills/harms/insults a capitalist, a warlord ("defense contractor"), a capitalist dictator, a war criminal, or anyone with power:
The ones that simp the hardest for the dead CEO were calling anyone who doesn't love Netanyahu's genocide a trumper.
