~The Red Menace~

Radical Feminist, Anarcha-Socialist, Lezbian Queer Dyke Cunt Lover, Secular Humanist, Activist Social Change Agent, Mestiza-Classed, Community Builder, RED MENACE!!


I'm a Public Leader, Community Organizer, and Community Builder. And I'm also an Anarcha-Socialist who fights to eliminate capitalism and other political, social, and economic hierarchies to create a society without institutions where all people have equal access to knowledge and production, emphasizes trade unions and decentralized methods of direct democracy, and finds any institutional form to be abusive. And I'm a Radical Feminist who believes the cause of women's oppression to be within patriarchy and the cause of all oppression to be in the mimicked hierarchical structures such as capitalism and amerikkkanism and globalism and colonialism and imperialism and jesusgodism which means society needs to be recreated and not changed cuz change just rearranges the same shit in a different order. And I'm a Secular Humanist who believes we got ourselves into this mess and can only rely on ourselves to get the hell out. And I'm Mestiza-Classed: the educated working-class wonder! And a Lezbian Queer Dyke Cunt Lover. An active activist social change agent iconoclastic catalyst. A VOICE with capital letters that stand tall and out and above and are heard and seen...always an outspoken mouth on the pretty face of the strong head of an independent woman. I'm an individual within the collective. And a Revolution! I'm a ReVoLuTiOn! and revolutionizer. A riotous redhead. THE Red Menace!

We the People: An American Plea

America is a greedy country. Americans are greedy people. The People - though at the hub of America and its function both as a democracy and a capitalist nation - are not people but rather individuals in the fight for survival of the fittest, consistently stampeding each other to get to the top and control the greatest portion of the economy. The majority of Americans get left behind. Both those who are left behind and those who make it to the top - BOTH - refuse to acknowledge their own humanities and look out for each other. No one wants to pay the additional taxes to provide universal health care or welfare expansion. And no one wants to redistribute the wealth within our nation so that no one person or group of people monopolize capitalism or are exploited by such a system. Though most Americans will admit to our dire problem of poverty and even agree with economic reform and social programming to alleviate poverty, the same Americans are unwilling to initiate the changes necessary to do so; the same Americans would prefer to elminate poverty on a national scale while maintaining their own individual wealth and assets. America, as a whole, dreams of being a nation devoid of poverty with a continued emphasis on liberal individualism, thriving on the rags to riches Lifetime movie.


America is greedy. Americans are greedy. It is unAmerican to want to pay more in taxes to support the nation as a whole. It is unAmerican to want to pay more in taxes to support the People, by the People, for the People. We the People need to abandon our selfishness and embrace our one commonality - HUMANITY - and take care of each other for the sake of taking care of each other. If We the People become We the People, the People's America will become the America the world envisions.
