#ShittyMeme 💩 #IFixedIt 👨🏿🔧 1️⃣. The government ain't just the "the government" it's a vast & multilayered group of institutions & agencies that go from local, state, to federal. Anyone to that talks about "thee government" without specifying which agency or sector is usually trying to deceive or manipulate you.🇺🇲 2️⃣. "The government" doesn't operate off or profits, it operates off of fines, fees, taxes, issues bonds, & shit like that. Even if you're "self-sufficient" you'll need land which is taxable, you'll need seeds & tools which are taxable, you'll need fishing & hunting licenses which requires fees, you'll need guns which are taxable, you'll need a vehicle which is taxable & licenced, etc, etc, etc. If you oppose profits you need to attack Capitalism & purge capitalism from the government, not simply try to run into the woods to escape the government.💲 3️⃣. Self-sufficiency is a myth, because people need manufactured goods, they'll need professional services, they need protections & oversight, all of which are regulated by state & federal governments & bureaucrats. Unless you have multidisciplinary skills ranging form engineering, medical, academic, agricultural, chemical, textile, seafaring, combat, herbology, psychology, investigative, arts, etc; you aren't self-sufficient; you're just a delusional & selfish muthafucka.👨🏿🌾 4️⃣. We're socially oriented & dependent primates, you need other people & you're obligated to other people & any positive social change only comes via coordinate, unified actions, not lone wolf delusions about self-sufficiency.🐺 5️⃣. People who push the myth of self-sufficient is trying to exploit your legitimate outrage for their own profits, they aren't trying to empower you to implement real solutions.👎🏿 6️⃣. We need to fight State Oppression & Capitalist Exploitation, growing food & drinking well water isn't going to get us there. We need Mass Revolutionary Organizing, not Individualistic Delusions based on Reactionary misunderstandings about the nature & structures of power & profits.✊🏿 7️⃣. I could say more but this is getting too long for a response to a shitty meme so I'll stop here: Fuck this meme.🖕🏿 (at South Side, Chicago) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVobsNyMqxF/?utm_medium=tumblr
