Since the rise of global capitalism and related ideologies associated with neoliberalism, it has become especially important to identify the dangers of individualism. Progressive struggles—whether they are focused on racism, repression, poverty, or other issues—are doomed to fail if they do not also attempt to develop a consciousness of the insidious promotion of capitalist individualism. Even as Nelson Mandela always insisted that his accomplishments were collective, always also achieved by the men and women who were his comrades, the media attempted to sanctify him as a heroic individual.
You see, we think individualistically, and we assume that only heroic individuals can make history.
With a yearning born of centuries of denial, ex-slaves worshipped the sight and sound of the printed word. Old men and women on the edge of the grave could be seen in the dark of the night, poring over the Scripture by the light of a pine knot, painfully spelling out the sacred words.33

incredibly insightful but ultimately i feel i still land on heavy prison reformation and de-commercialisation of prisons rather than abolishing them because some people (ie: serial killers/rapists) are just bad people and no amount of fixing society will change that.
there will always be men out there who do not view women as equal and like i said in one of my quotes, misogyny is so deeply ingrained into our society i dont think we could ever fully remove it
