All the mega corporations on the planet make their obscene profits off the labor and suffering of others, with complete disregard for the effects on the workers, environment, and future generations. We have a straightforward proposal: if they want public money, we want public control. It's that simple.

Civilization can never be sustainable.

From the beginning, this culture - civilization - has been a culture of occupation.

I think a lot of us are increasingly recognizing that the dominant culture is killing the planet.

So long as we only believe in the justice of the state, of the law-made by those in power, to serve those in power-so long will we continue to be exploited by those in power.

We cannot hope to create a sustainable culture with any but sustainable souls.

We can follow the example of those who remembered that the role of an activist is not to navigate systems of oppressive power with as much integrity as possible, but rather to confront and take down those systems.
