Why do we say that capitalism must be âdismantledâ?
Youâll hear phrases like âSmash the state!â âEat the rich!â and âSmash capitalism!â
And, yes, of course, but⌠:)
However relevant those sayings are, our work must be careful, highly organized and above all planned.
Because capitalism and all of its associated systems are not discrete, abstracted entities we can attack independently.
It is a structure, like a complicated machine with many thousands of working partsâŚ
And right now it is connected to absolutely everything.
If we do this⌠[picks up huge hammer and smashes the machine]
Then a lot of vulnerable people will die.
The machine was built and improved and redesigned and patched over the course of generations. It is very good at its intended purpose, which is ultimately to generate profit.
Every human being alive today relies on the byproducts of the machine to survive, without exception.
The machineâs engineers want it to keep working like it does. In fact, they want to optimise it.
That will kill all remaining life on Earth.
So, we must destroy the machine, quickly and carefully
We must examine its deadly programs and mechanics and replace them with alternatives we built together.
The engineers donât want us tampering with the machine.
However, we make it runâŚ
So we can make it STOP. Together.
How will YOU help us to safely dismantle the machine?
