When an institution is run for the benefit of one man, his family and the cronies who enable him to exploit the system for all that it's worth, it is the institution which becomes the problem, even more than the man.
FIFA has quietly been paying millions in taxes for Gianni Infantino.
Infantino came into power promising maximum transparency and FIFA committed to publishing details about his salary and benefits. So why isn’t FIFA telling anyone about the $4m income tax payments?

....not so fun fact: romantic love is a social construct (borne of a religious one!) intended to legitimize the institution of marriage and by extension the institution of uhhh...mmmhmmm.... the institution.
I think we allow romantic love to carry too much value in the overall human experience.
Shit, I’ve been guilty of it too.
However …. I just no longer believe that the greatest dream for your life … is rooted in keeping the same romantic love for as long as possible.

history cannot march on so long as "the republican party" exists. i do not think the democrats as an institution will be able to accomplish the historic task of the abolition and liquidation of "the republican party". but perhaps the international proletariat will

every institution on earth cannot survive the relentless stare and critique of the internet and every person who has a frustration or trauma or problem with the institution. every institution is broken in some ways. but that doesn't mean we have nowhere to work or participate, and we are needed.
