Revolutions are made by people who have done the math and concluded they have nothing left to protect.
The genius of late capitalism is that it never lets the math resolve that cleanly.
You have debt, yes, but you also have a 401k, small, underfunded, but real.
You have a mortgage that owns more of the house than you do, but it's still called "your house."
You have a job that could disappear tomorrow, but hasn't yet.
You have healthcare tied to that job, fragile, contingent, but present.
Every one of these is a small leash.
Not strong enough to make you safe.
Strong enough to make you cautious.
You're not trapped by chains.
You're trapped by a thousand small tethers, each one too minor to revolt over, all of them together heavy enough that you never do.
Orang kuat play-victim mostly memang suka mengundang..
Dia buat hal, lepas tu dia merentan..
Sama macam penceroboh tanah..
Dia curi tanah orang, kemudian dia nak bawak pergi mahkamah..
This is a picture of Tony Blair and his son , who as it turns out just happens to have a company that will be paid £ 100 billion to develop and monitor .....DIGITAL I.Ds !! Another bonus for Blair himself is that he holds £ 375 million worth in shares in that company ! No wonder that digital ID is being pushed on us !
They keep changing what they call it.
Colonialism became trusteeship.
Trusteeship became development assistance.
Development assistance became structural adjustment.
Structural adjustment became the Washington Consensus.
The Washington Consensus, after it visibly failed, became poverty reduction strategy papers.
Poverty reduction strategy papers became governance reform and institutional capacity building.
The name changes every decade.
The conditionalities remain.
The direction of resource flow remains.
The question of who sets the terms of the relationship remains.
The patient gets a new diagnosis every ten years.
The doctor's financial interest in the outcome is not disclosed.
The pharmaceutical company that manufactures the treatment funds the research that proves the treatment is necessary.
At some point the name changes stop being updates and start being cover.
We are past that point.
So a 24 year old man was arrested at an airport in Cyprus after he was caught with a suitcase containing 4 live embryos. The least surprising part? He’s an Israeli.

The debt system is the cleanest version of the whole operation because it requires no soldiers.
A country gets a loan from the IMF or World Bank, usually in a moment of crisis, often a crisis produced or deepened by prior colonial extraction.
The loan comes with conditions.
Structural adjustment programs.
Privatize your public utilities.
Cut your social spending.
Open your markets to foreign competition.
Devalue your currency.
Remove subsidies on food and fuel.
The local economy, already fragile, is further destabilized by the conditions of its own rescue.
The country cannot repay.
The country gets more loans with more conditions.
The debt grows.
The conditions deepen.
The government, unable to deliver services to its population, faces protests.
The protests are called "instability."
The instability is cited as evidence that the country cannot "manage itself."
"External oversight" is recommended.
More conditions are attached.
The country was never in debt to the bank.
The bank was in debt to the country, for centuries of extracted resources and suppressed development, and found a mechanism to make the creditor pay the debtor.
And called it "aid."
And called it "development."
And called it, with a straight face, "civilization."
