cheaper
If you want to live to old age (I’m ambivalent) you literally cannot afford to not have a revolution. More on this later.
easier
Nope. Those supply lines are crazy, the contrivances of insurance and IP law require so much bureaucracy, and then there’s tje side effects; of both capitalism and the drug.
healthier
Los Angeles kinda burned down and was drowned by toxic smoke last winter because we spent all the city and county money on cops to protect rich people from hearing the poor say “please stop” at scale and nothing preventing or preparing for the disasters our city/region is known for, that my grandmother, who had never been here, loved songs about. Best economic system. We’re rebuilding in the same places, with houses just as flammable. The people know it’s dumb, but the wealthy make the decisions. There was toxic fallout over the entire god damn city. It got everywhere. I’m almost certainly getting at least one cancer about this.
This summer those cops saturated us with so much tear gas it poisoned the water protecting capital’s geopolitical interests from people asking the government to stop paying to blow up hospitals with their tax dollars. Billions of dollars annually. Basically the only industry employing certain kinds of engineers. To blow up hospitals. So healthy. So cheap. So safe.
Today (technically yesterday but my sleep schedule is fucked) theres a potential for flash floods and I got emergency warnings about ‘debris flows’ which is like mudslides/flash floods but of toxic waste that nobody cleaned up because there’s no profit in that.
We aren’t special. This shit happens everywhere.
depression makes revolution harder
Yeah, it does. But wanting to die can also be a strength, and capitalism causes and worsens depression.



The medical and especially psych fields are incredibly toxic,fo used on capital-friendliness of solutions over effectiveness of solutions defined by their inconvenience ro capital rather than the patient.
So theoretically, sure.
But revolution can be great fucking therapy. Getting out there to organize and be around people who give a shit can be really nice and healing and empowering. Taking the knife out is good and helpful for healing sometimes.
