It's so easy to topple the 1%
Edited on Tue Oct-18-11 06:01 AM by chillspike
Just stop giving them our energy in the form of work.
Stop working for them.
Go self sufficient.
We work for these assholes to feed ourselves.
What if instead we grew a garden, raised chickens rooted our efforts and energy in getting our needs more directly from the Earth instead of some Overlord we've voluntarily give power to?
Take away their power.
A good book about people who do this on a limited scale is "A Different Kind of Luxury" by Andy Couterier.
I myself am working mightily toward building such a life free of wage slavery. Once I secure some land I won't take out loans to build on it. I'll build what I can with whatever energy or money I already have so I won't need to sell myself out totally to the 1% to pay for it all. I'll only need worry about food and taxes, basically. If I must work here and there to get something I need, it will only be just long enough to earn enough to get what I need and that's it. The idea is to limit your recurring bills so that will limit the length and number of times you'll need to work for others for money.
I realize not everyone can do this but if more people did, without our labor, the weaker the 1% would become.

Most liberals are city dwellers....like they can grow food for themselves? yeah, right.
so who's land are you going to take away for this little project?
-
Yeah, this will work just as well as all the "Not One Damn Dime Days" & the myriad of other failed DUmmy protests.

Umm, your parents would probably object to chickens in the basement. :mental:

Memo to idiots and DUmmies (but I repeat myself):
If it were so easy, you would have done it 50 years ago. How many of those communes are still around today?

Juveniles ::)

Do it, DUmmy. Shut down your Internet, provided by the evil comcast corporation. Turn off Rachel madcow, brought to you also by the evil comcast, through a tv made by the maniacal Sony corporation. Go out to your Occupy protest, but leave your Ford in the driveway. You can't even take your schwinn bike. You're not supporting those corps either. You've got to walk, but remember to leave your Reeboks and Nikes behind.

Now that I think about it this just may work.
Give em 40 acres and a mule. Let them build a house with their own hands. Let them plow the land and grow their own food. Let them accomplish true self sustaining skills....
then take the land away from them and redistribute it to hippies who know nothing of caring for the land.
The outrage this will create will result in a generation of conservatives!

The same people who dial 911 if the McDonalds runs out of Chicken McNuggets are going to grow their own food? :mental:

What the DUmbass is talking about has been around since the beginning of time. It's called "subsistence farming".
Billions of people all over the world live that way now. Every single one of them would risk his life for a chance to live in America.

The DUmpmonkies need the 1% SO MUCH MORE than the 1% need them.

Hey DUmmies go for it society will not miss you, in fact if enough of you goons do this maybe we can save some taxpayer money by not having to feed your sorry butts.
-
I hope you know how to make your own hammers and saws and nails and chicken wire to build a coop. And to build your own tractor to till the land and make your own fertilizer and insecticides....well you can see where I am going with this.
Honestly. These are supposed to be our intellectual betters but they all sound like they are in kindergarden.

Going totally off grid? Don't forget the wood stove and the wood lot. Can't have you working for the man three weeks out of every month to pay for drinking water, light and heat. I got a picture of the home area of my grandfather's farm, circa 1917. Wood stacked everywhere and it didn't get there by itself. Winters are long and cold and that fire has got to be going all the time.
I hope he does it. I'd buy the neighboring plot just to sit there and laugh at the bozo, especially at day four when the parasites in the creek water hatch out and wreak havoc on his digestive tract.

If you did you would find a extention cord running from your house by day two.

...Topple the 1% -
These primitives do realize that they are wishing to destroy the lives of one out of every 100 Americans, right ?
-Because that's what 1% is. If we assume an equal distribution, there are at least two people on every primitive's Facebook account that need to be destroyed.
-If we assume an average family size of 4 people - then at least one family member out of every 25 households will be targeted by primitives for elimination.

I've been telling them to do this for years, since they hate capitalism so much, but they won't. They'd rather sit around and confiscate from the achievers in capitalism, wait for them to accumulate wealth again, confiscate it again, lather, rinse, repeat...
They can't survive without capitalism.

If it weren't simultaneously sickening, it would be funny as hell comparing the DUmbass screeds against capitalism to the pompous diatribes of the looters and moochers in Atlas Shrugged. Every day they more and more closely resemble the caricatures in Rand's novel.

So he's working towards it but doesn't even have the land yet? How far along can the plan be? Dreaming about an idyllic life after reading a book? Wonder if he's even got a savings account. And how's he getting the money to buy it? A job with an evil corporation?

Maybe he is planning on a squatter's claim to land.

Squativersary Party
Phone calls with my kid are always interesting. Tonight she told me she attended a Squativersary Party. Her friends have now been squatting in their (foreclosed? abandoned?) house for 5 full years. They've grown from two people in one house to a cluster of 16 people in 6 houses.
We were talking about what would happen if they got busted, she said not much, they might get evicted. It would be a loss because they've done a ton of renovations, but on the other hand they've gained a lot of building skills so she figures they'd still come out ahead. My daughter has some carpentry skills and is excited about the possibilities. I think her modern-day version of the american dream is to live in a nice squat someday.

How naive of you. You didn't think that the DUmmies weren't going to still apply for benefits did you? Once the harvest comes up a bit short, they'll be clamoring for a handout, per the usual.

7. This is global- the kids are squatting all over the world.
I support them 100%.
My daughter is currently in Europe and is Squat-surfing
through several countries.
Sounds like Husb2Spunkly and his catbox.

So this Dummy wants to live like the Amish or the Mennonites? He or she really has no clue of how many of these farms have failed since the days of King George.

Kindergardeners have more intelligence than this bunch.
They've been reading too many Mother Earth News magazines.

They're going to use self made stone and wood tools...
Correction...they will first get stoned...then use the "woodie" ...and then call Mom to see what's for supper.

Most liberals are city dwellers....like they can grow food for themselves? yeah, right.
so who's land are you going to take away for this little project?
the first nationers, aka noble savages?
I mean they are the 1% with all the casionos right? :rofl:
This is so '70s that I expect to see Carroll O Connor and the Meathead on TV again. (OK maybe Sinéad O'Connor and Meathead)

That is exactly right. Here in Texas, the distribution of major liberal populations is limited to large cities, especially the inner cities. It's this way in many states. Don't see much room for gardens, though I suppose they could create a free-range chicken flock.

If you're serious, which you aren't, then get the hell off the Internets, fool! You had to buy a book to figure this all out as well that put money in the pocket of the author.
When you build your mud hut use your own sweat. No power tools; you'd be putting money into the evil electric company. No gas tools or vehicle: evil oil company. No convenience foods or shopping in stores; evil grocery industry. No furnishings, linens, cooking or eating utensils; all from evil companies who are only in business to prey on the weak and stick it to them.
Dig your own well. Grow and grind your own meal. Use candles that you've made from harvesting the wax from honeycomb and dipped yourself. Or use lanterns who've blown with metal components that you've mined, processed and beaten using fats you've rendered from the animals you've hunted with stone tipped clubs and flint knives.
And stop saving for your land; give all that horrible money away. You should be able to have land for free, so just go pick out a spot you like and squat.
Can you imagine a DUmmie getting up at 4 am and not stop working until he falls into bed around 11pm? Just because it's dark doesn't mean the work need for the days survival ends. And getting through the day isn't enough. Each day includes long term planning for at least the coming year.
Again they demonstrate how clueless they are dreaming of a life of sheer desperate day to day survival as some kind of utopia.
-
Idiots. That 'withhold your work' stuff would only be feasible if you and everyone else already had the means to survive without working for others indefinitely, AND you really were 99% instead of a fraction of 1% yourselves.
The problem with slogans like '99%' is that there is certain number of brainless tools, like the OP in that thread, who actually believe them.

They should pay attention to Greece. They're planning the "mother of all strikes" in Greece and it may just lead to the final bankruptcy of that country, complete with blood running in the streets. That's what the liberals apparently want.

I'm heading out right now to plant me some computer and internet connection seeds and grow myself a free online presence.

Be sure to collect those seeds after the plants mature so you can share them out equitably. Everybody is entitled to grow their own!
