I was just joking you can like those things, I have an interest in a lot of stuff. Be curious, learn history and culture, its an improvement over the garbage we are force fed in public schools.
I don’t agree with the ol “power corrupts so power bad” mindset. It’s learned helplessness. Workers need to become very interested in building power for ourselves as a class. Of course its rife with problems, the 20th century was disaster after disaster wrt socialist politics. Some bright spots, but it didnt pan out. Granted, I am not an anarchist, I know lots of anarchists who organize pretty darn well while pretending they aren’t building power.
But we can’t pretend, we have to deal with facts. How are going to create a better world without a comprehensive theory of power? Its pure idealism and I don’t have time for that.
But educating yourself, being interested in something like ancient Rome, and then building on it and educating is probably the best way forward for a lot of people.
I just have an issue with the neoclassicism of all these slave owning founders, who didn’t understand what the romans also didn’t understand about their society: the basis of all their progress and success is the slave labor they compel to carry it out.
I largely agree I was just a little fucked up and couldn’t think good when I wrote the comment, slipped and smashed into the ground hard nothing dangerous but I physically hurt bad. Regardless I meant undue or unearned power over people cult leaders, cops, and pseudoscientists would be the best examples I have for what type of powers I dislike due to their corruptive tendencies. But of a hard thing to describe since I don’t think English quite has the words required, but I am mostly against undue influence over people be it due to lack of education, dishonesty, dishonorable conduct, etcetera etcetera.
Hard to think still I’m gonna nurse this headache and literal pain in the neck while thinking about how I need to get a bath rug so I don’t slip again.
More or less, the packing facility is out in Thermal California but I pick them up in Palm Springs. Anyways they change week by week season by season, though patatos and onions are basically constant more or less.
