Welcome to DIY•wiki
consumer resistance resource
DIY•wiki : consumer resistance resource — compiled by D.Stall, created June 2022
DIY•wiki is resource for The Consumer Resistance to Modernity. See — MOD•wiki for more information on Modernity, its nature, effects on humanity and the Earth, and the need for Consumer Resistance.
DIY (Do It Yourself) is about being productive instead of consumptive. The American Way (aka The System of Organized crime) feeds on the consumption of the many, after ownership of production has been siezed by the few, in order to enrich the few at the expense of the many and the natural world. This is actually the way of Capitalism that has been manipulatively and deceitfully marketed as The American Way, “The Highest Standard of Living in the World”.
The capitalist way is American because —
1) USA had a Second American Revolution (Civil War) in which industrial monied powers of the North squashed agrarian monied powers (planters) of the South, thereby instituting a New American Culture of consumerism,
2) USA exited World War I and World War II unscathed to become the industrial global superpower, that continues to hold liberal hegemony over the world today,
3) USA is the largest consumer market in the world, with the largest military in the world (and in human history), which itself is a huge consumer market (foreign military bases are like small cities that boost economies of foreign nations),
4) USA is a leader of technological innovation by way of US military, taxpayer funded RAND corporation research and development, R&D from which many to most technological consumer products are created, and
5) American products, especially entertainment (movies and music) are distributed worldwide and have become a source of foreign emulation of The American Way
