If you live under the tyranny of capitalism, sometimes the choice isn’t entirely yours to make

Unless you’re physically disabled the choice is always yours it’s a question of commitment:

-You vote

-You go to a protest

-You join a union

-You join a strike

-You risk your livelihood through speech

-You join a direct action

-You risk your life

Most people never get past commitment level 0 which is doing nothing including voting

Then throw their hands up that nothing changes claiming they have no ability to do anything

There are thousands of examples to the opposite and it boggles my mind how people can think they aren’t capable
