Americans are truly hopeless. Even the well meaning ones. Now we are wasting time to explain to them why you should give a comrade in need money without exchange for anything. Really? You need a infographic on why that& #39;s the case?
You all think you must & #39;work& #39; to deserve the basics of living a dignified life, you don& #39;t just deserve them because you are human. This is Calvinist thinking that has ruined Americans. That we must work to earn our dignity.
Communism isn& #39;t not working either, it& #39;s working with dignity & purpose. And those who can& #39;t work for any reason, as comrades we provide for them without anything in exchange. It& #39;s not charity, it& #39;s mutual aid. It& #39;s communal responsibility.
Charity was a concept invented by capitalists to give the poor scraps to make themselves feel better about themselves & make the poor grateful for scraps. We have a lot to unlearn here.
Hard work is good if it& #39;s purposeful and your life is sustained & you don& #39;t feel burdened if you can& #39;t work, hard work to just barely keep head above water is exploitation.
These are very simple natural common sense things to me yet Americans need a whole dissertations to break it down to them.
