I keep saying this, but people really need to learn that two things can be bad at the same time.

Nazis, bad. Colonialism/genocide, bad. We (we being anyone worth a conversation with) can agree with that, yes? So why do a lot of people, a lot of self proclaimed leftists, seem to struggle with that in regards to the situation in Ukraine? They have nazis/racists. those are bad. the canadian parliament are a bunch of idiots (putting aside canadas own colonialism/nazi problem) Ukraine is also being invaded by an autocratic, reactionary, and genocidal regime with colonialist ambitions. All nations have nazis (or equivalent) in them. Mexico being invaded by the us would be bad. It would rightly be opposed by any leftist of good standing, reguardless of their nazi problem.

But for whatever (soviet nostalgia, mostly) reason, a lot of leftists have an issue with that.

A person born into capitalism, a system in which virtually all resources are privately owned, must receive permission from property owners in order to access those resources to survive.

Each person must therefore pay a property owner or labor directly for the property owner to survive. Each person is *coerced* into wage labor and market transactions by virtue of *systemic privatization.*

Any property owner could voluntarily allow the propertyless access to resources free of charge. But each owner is *also* obligated into market exchanges to acquire resources not found on their property to survive, coercing *them* into exploiting the propertyless to survive.

I have said it before: capitalism incentivizes psychopathic behavior. If people must engage in competitive profit seeking to survive, they are disciplined by the threat of market failure, immiseration, and starvation into horrific behavior *whether they want to or not.*

Capitalist ideologues will insist the absence of coercion in any given exchange exonerates the entire system. But I have never once been threatened by a cop over taxes, and yet I am still aware that I face imprisonment and violence if I fail to pay on time. The propertyless are well aware of the violence that will face them if they try to use property without permission—without payment, without laboring—even if they’ve never personally been evicted by a sheriff’s deputy.

Capitalist ideologues will insist on treating the system as nothing more than a sequence of discrete interactions with no connection to each other, because no one wants to think *they* would willingly participate in, and perpetuate, a system of exploitation and coercion.

Capitalism: "Look at all the mass surveillance in the Warsaw Pact states. We would never do that!"

Also capitalism: [Builds most sophisticated mass surveillance network in human history, most of it to better serve you ads with weird stock photos like someone putting an onion in their sock to cure their breast cancer or some shit.]

I don't dream of a future where little girls grow up wanting to be ceos, or lockheed martin scientists, or soldiers, or whatever a human recourses developer is. I dream of a world where girls grow up wanting to be occultist practitioners, and sex workers, and unhinged artists, and boys.
