FUCK CAPITALISM
Corporations have Gone Psycho
We require Sanity!
Have you noticed that our government enforcement of policies are Crazy?
As I’ve grown older and am supporting a family now, I’ve started looking closer at how government decisions are made. I found an unhidden fact: everything is done for the Corporations, by the Corporations, under the Corporations’ control of the Government. Corporations are considered persons; the Supreme Court says so. If so, Corporations are Crazy. They should be held responsible as a person, as I am, if I become a threat to society!
What is a Psychopath ?
Corporations share several characteristics with Psychopaths:
They deny personal responsibility, are highly manipulative, are grandiose (“We’re Number One!”), lack empathy, cannot feel remorse, and have strong anti-social tendencies.1
Corporations are building blocks of Capitalism.
They are its basic organizational unit, capitalism’s attack dogs. A corporation is a structure that allows a capitalist to use other people’s money to make private profit… WHILE avoiding all personal responsibility.
Take the Sackler family, who made billions as their corporation, Purdue Pharma, told everyone that OxyContin, their most profitable opioid, was safe and not addictive.2 More than 200,000 people have died from prescription drugs since OxyContin was released in 1996. Everyone knew that the Sackler family put profit above lives, but it was Purdue Pharma that was found guilty and paid $7.4 billion in fines.3 The Sackler family avoided personal guilt, no jail time for murder, and they were granted immunity from any lawsuits arising from the opioid crisis they helped create.3 By the way, they still have over $7 billion in the bank.3

Or take Big Petroleum, whose refineries in Cancer Ally in Louisiana has killed thousands, while the corporations make hundreds of billions. Or take almost any corporation in any state…
How about… Donald Trump, Elon Musk, the Epstein Class: predatory, abusive liars, “glorious entrepreneurs” and open fascists, who proudly and openly commit crimes and brag about it!
“We’re not the problem”, they proclaim. The problem is poor people, who we are supposed to hate for our petty differences like skin color, gender, religion and people like Bernie Sanders who actually think that the richest country in the world should provide free health care for all!
But the real problem is capitalism… the system that puts data centers in your community, which destroy the water, pollute the air with natural gas generators and seize all our personal and social data so they can make people like the Sacklers rich! Anyone who complains is an “anti-American communist” and they are building detention centers to jail them. Or… jail us!
So… are the capitalists necessary… this ruling class that controls society, yet doesn’t pay taxes? NO, they are not necessary. In fact, they are a massive burden to us all. We can do just fine without a system that relies on exploitation, extraction and exclusion to enrich a few at our expense.
So how do we get rid of the capitalists?
Abolish their private property and make it our public property. The rest of us, we who do not live by investing in securities and monopoly rent, we who must work to survive, can mobilize our political power and unite to abolish the single thing that gives them their political power – their false claim that they are entitled to own the tools and technologies, to actually own Nature itself, as their private property. They hide their power to control their property and therefore our lives with the lie that their private property is exactly the same as our personal property, the things each of need and use every day!
As the communist alien, Spock, said on Star Trek,
“The needs of the many must outweigh the needs of the few!”
