This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The school to hospice informal incarceration pipeline is omnipresent for the working class, and college/trades level is right there in the middle. Right after kid jail and before wage slavery.

I dunno, I prefer this to having to take care of cows and growing my own crops.

Life and the endless crushing need for resources is the prison.

False dichotomy. This has nothing to do with cows and crops on some imaginary "farm". In reality there's no actual need for people to slave away their whole lives serving capital just so we can destroy the planet.

So let's say that system collapsed tonight. Tomorrow, 8000000000 people need to eat. If my argument is a false dichotomy tell me how they eat.
