I’m realizing that everything about America was a violently enforced artifact of whiteness and patriarchy. There is nothing natural, innovative, or innate about this place. Everything was dreamed up in the mind of power which sought only to magnify + preserve itself.
...and this is what enrages me the most about people who reject the mere idea that there could be a world without police or capitalism. Whiteness has done a stellar job at convincing folks that their power is their birthright, and our disenfranchisement is our fate.
...folks take it, not only without question, but they believe it so wholeheartedly that they are willing missionaries for the cause of maintaining this power dynamic.
If capitalism is a natural outgrowth of anything, it is a natural outgrowth of whiteness’s obsession with control and dominance.

Capitalism is not a consequence of human nature. Capitalism is a consequence of whiteness and patriarchy
It is not in my nature as a human to want to sell my time and my labor for currency.

It is not in my nature as a human to force people to choose between currency and relationship.

I did not invent this currency. This currency was created to buy and sell my ancestors.
This brings me around to something that will be a major theme for the next 4+ years—that is first Jupiter’s, and then Saturn’s transit through Aquarius.
...
Aquarius transits 2021 through 2025 demand we answer:
*What makes a person a person?
*What is a human? Not the genus and species. But the concept perpetuated by how we organize our societies.
We imply personhood via the rights & benefits given to some and the rights & benefits withheld from others. Are you even a real person to this violent settler colony called America? Do you even exist to it?
This is why I am so adamant about tearing down and dismantling the myth of free-will.

Your poverty, subjection to violence, failure to thrive, imprisonment, hunger, houselessness is not due to lack of will. These are all intentional acts of violence. And who is the antagonist?
Recognize the ways that your self worth is tied to validation + acknowledgement of your person by a state whose existence is built upon your invisibility.
I could go on. But for now, just watch this... https://twitter.com/peoplesoracle/status/1360652643295707136
