Let’s be honest: jobs don’t define us. Our #value isn’t tied to #productivity

#UBI isn’t about replacing #work — it’s about replacing fear. Fear of hunger, eviction, medical debt.

When people are #secure they #create #innovate and #thrive

A #BetterWorld isn’t just possible — it’s necessary.

This world is so beautiful
but
we humans are often not

We live in a world
that is boundlessly beautiful
but also
boundlessly unjust

Even twenty years ago
I couldn't get used to it
and even now
it makes me incredibly angry
but also speechless
how much worse it has become

Studies show that monetary incentives do not always improve performance, and can frequently decrease results. Incentives are often due to the beliefs that people hold, sometimes even putting their own lives at risk for them. Clearly, this outweighs the motivation of a monetary reward. Doing what people believe is “good” is a powerful reinforcer.

we explain how to get started with grassroots organizing. Our toolkit explains how to build a movement by looking at successful examples.

Remember, you are not alone in wanting a better world and #UBI

There are plenty of people out there who think like you and who also take action. Take action with us and vote for people who want the same future that you want.

One example: @remahformoreton.bsky.social who wants to tax billionaires and create a fairer society for all

Why do so many people still believe everything the super-rich say?

Especially when they say they know how the “normal” and “economically weak” are doing?

This expression alone....
Normal people?
Economically weak?

Oh....
Go fuck yourselves

Sorry, couldn't help myself...little shitposting

The beauty
it comes from everywhere

Beauty
can be found everywhere

We capture
and see it should

We should pass it on
and feel the beauty

So that all the ugliness of this world
does not gain the upper hand

A look in the mirror reveals
what is otherwise so artfully
hidden from all

People should not see
what looking into the truth
so ruthlessly reveals

It wants to come to the surface
But you must prevent it
to appear

All this hatred that is deeply rooted
within you must not reach the light
of beauty

Not give up the fight
that you have fought for so long
with what was once done to you

si_irini

for all fighters

Love was given
to everyone

But many
too many exchanged it

Went off to spread hate
against everyone

Because hate is easier to live
And it makes you look bigger

But love has always found a way
into the hearts of those
who contradicted every hate

Good night my dear Fedis
See you again tomorrow

I think such a “small” revolution
(of the worker bees, of the foot people...)
would do us all good
and annoying the “slave bosses”
is good anyway...

And it's important
to show “them”
what democracy really means
(violence is not tolerated)

No matter where in the world

#world #mastodon #fediverse #revolution #people #human rights #humanity #human #freedom #democracy #democracy #FreeWill #BetterWorld

Prejudices,
reservations,
are something simply negative

They limit oneself,
one's views,
one's world view,
his openness,
often in a very strong way

You don't give up, never
but you adapt and then keep fighting

Whole cultures have survived like this
for centuries

Never give up
no matter where
and from where a fight is waged

Whether it is fought out of the dark or in the light
the most important thing is to fight it

Because fighting for freedom and democracy
no matter where
is more important than ever

Long fought for and yet too briefly lived freedom
has always been given away in jubilant roars and applause

An open, diverse society
can learn every day
and benefit from it

Why we are drifting in the opposite direction
and so many support it with their heart and soul
is a real mystery to me

Back and forth
the sadness
It always comes
over and over again

Fights its way out
the superiority
Then holds captive
all the beauty

The heart grieves
Mind so heavy
Darkest thoughts
black as the night

Now crawl out
then come again
For after the dark
is always followed by light
Over and over again

si_irini

The more radical we become
the more radical the other side becomes

It no longer matters
where we stand

No matter where you stand
Anyone can hate

Today I saw a future
quite intuitively
that was not good
And darn it again
when this vision comes to me like this
I'm always right
My stomach is already fighting back

What kind of future are we actually running into?
What kind of world do we want?
