Eat The Rich

The means to feed and house everyone exist. Yet there are homeless, and there are so so many hungry... For me, it's the clear dividing line. Anyone who questions whether all people should have access to healthy food and safe shelter has no place in society. Who cares if food is a right, ensuring everyone is fed is what is right. To suggest otherwise is an unacceptable affront to the inherent value of all human beings. To suggest otherwise creates a divide within society, leaving every decent caring person unable to engage fully with the world, not to mention leaving fellow human beings to struggle for no reason but greed and ignorance.

We are alienated from a healthy society by the inhumanity of our fellow man. It is difficult for me to even consider them human any longer. Though I know they still have the same inherent value, they have the capacity for goodness, and it is primarily the sickness of the world they grew up in that makes them how they are. They grew up alienated in an unhealthy environment, so they don't even recognize they are maintaining such a horrid and dehumanizing system. While I can never refuse the humanity of anyone, it is clear that those who argue against food accessibility have denied their own humanity. Nothing they say means anything any longer. 

This should be the most basic and clear measuring stick that decides who gets to have a voice in society. Should everyone have access to all the healthy foods they need, to safe shelter, to medical care? Any hesitation to affirm is a clear sign that a person is not emotionally aware and capable enough to be allowed to affect the world around them. Hopefully, as society heals they too will heal enough to find a place. Their needs too will hopefully some day be met. But convincing the inhumane the importance of basic human decency is a waste of time as things are. It's a waste of energy and focus. If they wanted to see they would see, if they wanted to care they would care. They don't want to. There is no point in debating such people. They deny their own humanity. They have nothing worthwhile to say, they can only drag others down.

The priority is meeting the basic needs of everyone. Both for the physical well being of those in need, and for the mental and emotional well being of every single member of society. We are not well, we cannot be well, in the midst of others' needless suffering. The overwhelming majority of society is alienated from fully embracing and engaging with society in a healthy manner, which just adds more psychological and emotional weight that further isolates us all.

In order to fully embrace and be embraced by society, those very basic and straight forward ills of society must be remedied. There can be no compromise. It is strict either/or. We address the issues or we subject the next generation to an increasingly heavy burden. We create solutions or we ensure the emotional alienation of all who are born in the world. It was the burden passed on to us, but it is still on us if we allow it to continue. And it won't just continue. The burden grows exponentially with time, the alienation more absolute.

The most compassionate thing we can do for the super wealthy is stop them. And because what they must be stopped from so greatly harms others, there are only justifiable means to do so. They are unquestionably actively murdering people. That cannot be said enough, cannot be stressed enough. And it should never be allowed to be presented in any other way. The accumulated wealth of a billionaire is death to those in poverty. They chose to let others die instead being a part of everyone being fed. They have their humanity for wealth. Instead of being an active participant in ensuring everyone's needs are met, they are actively hoarding the means to do so. 

An army marches on its stomach. This is one of the main reasons the majority of the world is kept in a state of food scarcity. Even in areas where food is plentiful, the majority are limited in what they have access to by virtue of cost. The fear of not being able to access food altogether keeps people in line. An army marches on its stomach and so does a revolution, especially one that must be sustained and incorporate the masses. Fear of not being able to feed their families will understandably keep many people from participation. In fact that fear is a primary driving factor in why much of society constantly acts against their own interests. The ruling class know this very well, and they use it to their advantage. So both out of compassion for the hungry and to help fuel the changes that are necessary to heal society, it is imperative that food is accessible to all. By any means necessary.
