Columbus used a 15th-century legal doctrine to colonize and slaughter the Indigenous peoples he encountered. And it's still the law in the U.S. today.

I'm sorry that I'm relying on you, but this means we're at $0 income outside of MA If you want people like me to keep doing what we're doing we need help. We don't qualify for any assistance or subsidies, bc the govt wants people like us to be bought out. Please.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

All of this is correct. But missing the *other* more insidious reason: The idea you can "pull yourself up" is meant to make you believe that there's a path to prosperity in capitalism for everyone. (Mathematically impossible) This gives capitalism cover with enough laborers trying to "get rich".

See, I have a hypothesis that a lot of us are so law and order brained that we don't WANT to embrace abolition, so we will actively avoid information that supports it and craft narratives to support the carceral status quo in our own minds.
