scottrossi reblogged shearsandsnaresSource: unpoliceyourmind“I’ve seen a ton on the facebooks about “thanking veterans for their service.” As a veteran let me just be very straightforward and honest with you. We didn’t “serve our country”; we don’t actually serve our brothers/sisters or our neighbors. We serve the interests of Capital. We never risked our lives or spent months on deployment away from our family and friends so they can have this abstract concept called “freedom”. We served big oil; big coal; Coca-Cola; Kellogg, Brown, and Root and all the other big Capital interests who don’t know a fucking thing about sacrifice. These people will never have to deal with the loss of a loved one or the physical and/or psychological scars that those who “serve”, and their families, have to deal with for the rest of their lives. The most patriotic thing someone can do is to tell truth to power and dedicate yourself to building power to overthrow these sociopathic assholes. I served with some of the most real and genuine people I’ve ever met. You’ll never see solidarity like the kind of solidarity you experience when your life depends on the person next to you. But most of us didn’t join for that; we joined because we were fucking poor and didn’t have many other options.”— An anti-capitalist veteran (via elitc)

Have a bad month, low on cash, pay a bill late - they charge you a late fee.
Then, that late payment is immediately reported to the credit tracking companies. Now in additional to a fiscal penalty, your credit score takes a hit, now…

Suspect brandishing pen in right hand. More from Mayor Bloomberg’s personal army.

What they did not want you to ever find out is that your generation, the generation born between 1980-1995, actually outnumbers the Baby Boomers. They knew that if you ever turned your eye towards political reform, you could change the world. They tried to keep you sated on vapid television shows and vapid music. They cut off your education and fed you brain candy. They took away your music and gave you Top Ten pop stations. They cut off your art and replaced it with endless reality shows for you to plug into, hoping you would sit quietly by as they ran the world. We as a society are only as strong as our weakest link. Give ‘em hell, kids.

Keep going! Your serious, determined outlook is greatly needed on the streets. Not to mention your love of fun. Anyhow, each time I see you and the other medics at an action, it reminds me that we're more than just a bunch of angry folks. We can be a bunch angry folks who take care of each other. Anyhow, stay up, stay strong, and I'll see you in the street.
