[Thread] Random excerpts from #KleeBenally 's book, #NoSpiritualSurrender
The Enemy of #MotherEarth
"From Mother Earth to our bodies, in a #capitalist system everything that can be reduced to a commodity will be. As long as it can be sold, bought, or otherwise exploited, nothing is sacred. So long as the lands (and by extension our bodies) are viewed this way we will have conflict, as #capitalism is the enemy of Mother Earth and all that we hold to be #sacred.
"In its base definition, capitalism is an economic and political system based on an unregulated or 'free' market, private property, competition, and limited government intervention. But the definition obscures the reality that capitalism is based upon extreme social #exploitation and dispossession, #EcologicalDestruction, #hyperindividualism and #materialism, and its history is rooted in #WhiteSupremacy, #cishetereopatriarchy, #genocide, and #slavery.
"To be anti-capitalist is not enough, anti-capitalist propositions rooted in #industrialism and #extractivism are just as invested in #ecocidal (therefore anti-Indigenous) economies. Killing the Earth is killing Indigenous existence, #Colonizers must religiously convince themselves and others that the world is already dead to justify their ongoing violence against the Earth and existence. In the face of global ecological ruin, some attempt to further convince themselves that killing the Earth just a little bit less is an appropriate response."

Should people have a choice to attempt living outside of capitalism?

It's scary to think about this, but it's likely true. Our consciousness is a product of the collective biological processes of our bodies, and once those biological processes no longer function (i.e. once we die), we will no longer be conscious. We can't comprehend not being conscious forever, so some of us imagine we'll be conscious in an afterlife, while others accept the uncomfortable yet undeniable truth of the finiteness of our consciousness.
