Even Shia LeBeouf lost his sh*t.
You want to smash the state. But you're stuck at your liberal arts college, or your cubicle job, or inside a computer, or whatever else your weak excuse is for not getting involved, so the only thing keeping you going is the knowledge that somehow, somewhere, though the patriarchy smites you daily a thousand times-
though it insults you, demeans you, threatens to strip away your reproductive rights-
though it de-legitimizes your speech, it censors your access to scientific data, it vows to plow pipelines through indigenous graveyards, it declares racist immigrant bans, it mocks you with its heedless power and lack of shame,
it invokes secret bans, threatens net neutrality, cuts off your healthcare, and ruins your life-
though all of this is true,
though it smite you daily a thousand times-
