“Within one day of last week’s attack on the Capitol, at least
three states introduced legislation to criminalize protest. The bills,
advanced by Republican lawmakers in Florida, Mississippi, and Indiana,
do not represent new strategies designed specifically to prevent future
right-wing insurrections. Rather, they draw from a set of policies that
numerous state legislators introduced this summer in order to appear
tough on protests against police brutality.“
The narrower Indiana bill would broaden the definition of rioting —
which the Florida bill did as well — and would criminalize camping at
the Indiana state Capitol. The Mississippi bill would also allow the
state to strip unemployment benefits from anyone who pleads guilty to
participating in disruptive protests.
(in small text, if even included at all) “who were wealthy enough to own land”
this is such a bad definition it is entirely meaningless. has no mention of relationship to labor…
for those of you wondering
the working class make their money in only 1 way, they can only sell their labor
the petit bourgeoisie have more to sell than just their labor and in fact can even make money off of other peoples labor it has literally nothing to do with “what wealth bracket youre in” and everything to do with your relationship to labor
see: mom and pop store that hires people to work register.
their income status or like “wealth status” in this definition being placed in “lower middle class” is completely and totally asinine given most “small business owners” or people with a different relationship to labor than “the working class” (who have only their labor to sell) make far more money than the average worker
im so fucking mad.
ppl are really mad at me in the notes for pointing out that the us education system lies and obstructs information especially when it comes to russia. incredible!
as if they (us education system) dont largely go from explaining peasants to be poor serfs who are owned by lords and work on land that is not their own to then being like “the kulaks were peasants” in an obvious sleight of hand without ever really describing peasant classes adequately.
theres a huge difference between describing kulaks as all being these poor serfs who own nothing and explaining what actually happened.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
