thats like so fucking depressing
instead of humans getting their shit together and stopping the industrial enslavement, torture and slaughter of animals, the hope is that with new tech they will reduce the cruelty
its hard to not get misantropic sometimes... sysyems, not people. systems, not people...
a common understanding of radical by self described radicals is "targeting the root of an issue" or the "wanting large systemic changes" that follows from that.
for radical feminists this means recognizing patriarchal power structures as the root of most gender related opressions and wishing to overcome them. while we can critique their exact analysis, i think the idea that many opressive acts are symptoms of deeper systemic opressions maked a lot of sense.
please don't let opressors convince you that liberation in itself goes too far. a better world is possible and the struggle for it is righteous.
i think in this sense memes like this might even be detrimental, because they set the bar so high, barely anyone will take a shot.
you dont need to kill police or politicians, probably throwing your life away, to make a difference. just find whatever horizontal organisations are providing for needs and building dual power in your area and join them.
we dont need tanks for that, just an underground network of lovely people, trained to turn hormone powder into meds for consumption, as well as a mutual aide network to finance the tools, powder, and production, and to distribute the product.
if you wait for a violent insurrection to get what you need, you will wait longer than you can and once it happens you will just fall into the next authoritarian system because no libertarian system was prefigured.
the meme looks lovely tho, politics aside :3
thats what i think everytime i still havent gotten far on the small project that i told everyone about a month ago.
im moving on my own timescale and thats fine. shit gets done eventually. please dont make me feel bad
worst joke this side of the
lesbian? i dont get it. how does that work? like which one of you is wearing the black dress in the relationship?
here i go explaining the joke
its a stereotype that cishets ask queer couples silly question with the goal of squeezing them into the framework of heterosexuality. i saw a chance of putting a comical spinn on that by asking about the colour of the dress instead. the joke was very half cooked. my apologies @w@
could someone please explain for those who have not read it?
a link to the video, that does not require instagram (idk for how long the link wi work)
this specific video was reuploaded to peertube https://anarchy.tube/videos/watch/6291f727-dda3-4093-8e67-f28283dca9a6
which is honestly a lovely praxis. more youtube videos should be mirrored over there.
my partner keeps recommending a modern anarchism to me. it's a newer book series, attempting a scientific synthesis of multiple anarchist streams as well as to transport them to the 21st century. i started reading it myself yesterday and ofc i havent gotten very far into it yet, but conceptionally i think it has great potential.
its amazing what you can do, when you just start doing it. you dont have to be special to do it. basically anyone can
pha, you missed the nonbinawy kittens, meowing down here
meow meow meow
silly rambles
technically ofc both of these chawecters could be nonbinawy, or be meant to include nonbinawy people. its just my silly gender bwain pwojecting gender onto them, which tbf is based on them usually being meant to wepwesent genders. >.<
if they are not supposed to wepwesent genders but just people in genewal, then the cwiticism falls away of course, altho i could still cwitiqe the lack of diversity in appeawance.

i am still in fhe first half of the book but already it is so queer, with so many different charecters having their quewrness explored.
while it has been present for a while, i always thought the cosmere books were lacking in this regard and i am so happy this has been so greatly improved now :3
this combined with the focus on healing, empathy and redemption - almost reminding me of steven universe - as well as mental health and neurodivergence makes me love this book more, than the phantastic world and storries already did
this comic is a joke about how anarchist ideology is different from whats informally called anarchism. i am not transcribing it, because it has wayy too much text for that. sorry

does anyone else ship bat'chor and topaz? that's really all i wanted to ask :3
i think the two have a cute dynamic. i really like that idea of a merchant, escaping their responsibility, to go on adventures with an excentric jesk they secretely love. following them on an unknown quest, out of loyalty and love..
i dont really think it's there in the text, but i like to imagine it anyway
