‘They Want It All’: Mumia Abu Jamal

We’re in a moment right now, and I gave them my epoch speech about—This is a turning point in the nation’s history, and for the first time, capital has, you know, they’ve got the whip hand, and they’re whipping, and they’re trying to get it all. And they, you know, they have a, they have a shot. You know, nothing is certain, but this AI will decimate working class and middle class life in this country, and in the world, following this country. Because capital can, for the first time, you know, take the lion’s share of the profits, and screw the working class, because they don’t need human workers as they have before, you know. 

And, you know, this is like, and I told him this is like the Griftopia age, where everybody is stealing the largest amounts their hands, their pockets, their mouths can carry, because this is that moment, and capital recognizes it, you know. And I think the whole idea behind sentient yet nonhuman labor, was to deprive the working class and the middle class of everything they needed for life, so that they would be more servile. And this is that moment now. This is that moment, and we’re about to see something I think perfectly monstrous—in the months and years to come. And they could not have a more perfect exemplar and avatar, in the fat boy—Donald Demon Trump. And, you know, because, he’s, you know, he’s grasping with both hands, and taking it all and throwing it down his gullet, as quick as he can. Because he wants it, all you know.
