They put ridiculous obligations on our lives - we're expected to "earn our living", as if we have to answer to them for our very existence.

Our lives from cradle to grave are directed toward their needs to the detriment of our communities.

Money is the gatekeeper to even the simplest things, like clean air, housing, and basic freedom, respect, and dignity.

They put obligations on us, but fight any obligation we put on them in return.

Get rid of them all.

"They" are politicians and grifters.

"They" are the people who own the companies where you are employed - you are indentured tot hem.

"They" are religious leaders who work hand in hand with corrupt leaders in hopes of maintaining their own power.

"They" are academic leaders who believe whatever they have learned is superior.

The thing "they" all have in common?

"They" are all *SUPREMACISTS*.

They believe some people are better than others, and everyone else should pay deference to them.

Supremacy is a corrupt belief, easily disproven as a "natural" or even "superior" philosophy.

For example: How do you determine whether someone is inherently "better" than you?

The entirety of Western Civilization exists to attempt to answer that question, and never has in its entire history.

Because there is no answer.

Because the very idea of supremacy is corrupt, wrong, unnatural, and sociopathic.

So, why do you still work and vote for and worship with and learn from supremacists?

In any given constrained context, some people will be a better fit than others. We should look to them for guidance and show appreciation when they freely share it.

But their power and influence should end there.

Instead, e buy into these ideas of power structures and hierarchies. We're not given any choice other than compete.

And, truth be told, few of us actually compete. Most of us cooperate and collaborate with co-workers, family members, etc.

Because cooperation *is* natural.
