The great thing about the platforms we have is that we do not need 2000 years to end this form of feudalism, we just need to get people to stop engaging in this shit and to politically mobilize

I’ve been going single player as of late. A lot of the outer worlds spacers choice and gates to hell Ostfront. Fighting against corporatism and fascism
Something to consider would be to unionize your workplace, if everyone says this is dumb I’m not doing it and they have the extra legal protections of being in a union then these shit ass Bosses can’t do anything about it.
I have a comprehensive financial plan and look to have up to 48k in about one years time saved. With 16k on hand after paying off my student loans this October which will likely start the one year plan....
Good. Gun “control” is an ineffective bandaid solution for large societal problems that politicians refuse to tackle because it’ll hurt their doners pocket this quarter.
Notice how many of the countries you describe have more than two political parties, universal healthcare, and aren’t the world’s superpower.
Violence largely happens due to stress, stress comes from poor living conditions, financial constraints and cultural issues(and more). Considering more than half of Americans are paycheck to paycheck, that we have to pay hundreds for medical care and that the average income is somewhere in the 40k range it’s pretty easy to see why so many people are mentally ill, violent and politically extreme.
On top of this you also have the hard to quantify issue of foreign powers attempting to influence, degrade, or propagand to the citizens of world’s main power which is another issue that adds an additional layer.
You need to understand the reasons for unreasonable actions to actually prevent them. Attack the source causes and not throw out a core part of the American identity because our shit ass politicians can’t be assed to think beyond the next election cycle.
By all means an interesting idea but the issue is ups corporate is going to do a few things with this hypothetical. In the short term they get more money (which could A) go to the strike fund or B) is going to be hard for a enough people to matter to get together and give even if temporary)
Then corpos are going to see this increase in demand and see 2 things, something to propagand on and have an inflated number of “lost revenue”. It’s also possible they’ll see this as the public doesn’t care about the strike or workers rights
And even if you get refunded the money because they can’t deliver then you have to go through UPS “support” or through your cc company. Both are not guaranteed to work and you could just end up giving them money for nothing or for a extra slow package you didn’t need.
If you have the funds to do this then donate it to the strike fund you’ll be doing a lot better for price to action.
