i don’t remember whether i’ve posted these to fedi before but even if i have, You’re Welcome For The Reminder

today i am wearing this extremely powerful article of clothing

i like how this is saying Down With Property Rights without sayyyyying down with property rights https://www.newwaysministry.org/2022/09/18/shady-solidarity-a-god-who-lifts-up-the-poor/
