If you scroll down a little there is

What if you cannot attend? There are plenty of valid reasons why you may be unable to attend a protest or other direct action — but don’t worry! You can still contribute to the safety of your comrades in the streets. Check out the Staying Home Guide for other ways you can show up in solidarity with The Uprising.

Nowhere is it even implied that community on its own will stop capitalism, but without it you will achieve no meaningful change.

Like, who the fuck do you think you’re going to be toppling the government and doing socialism with? How the fuck do you think you get people today to understand the value of doing that? How do you gather enough human mass to enact it?

I’m all for a violent abolition of our existing establishments, but this hostility that seems to be coming out of people towards the mere suggestion of the importance of community building is really odd…

You will never get anywhere without a community.

Well, I suppose bending over for a couple of dictators to fuck you (but more importantly, your people, and then who ever those two decide to invade next) is a kind of posture… 🙄

I would whole heartedly agree. It is the core we must build from.

That’s a lot of words to say “I see no value in community” (which is all the post is suggesting, what you get defensive about and why is for you to resolve with yourself)

Edit, because obviously this isn’t clear to some: without a community, and alternative communal structures to fall back on, the current structures can not be abolished and a revolution will never be successful.

Yes! 💜

Yeah good idea! As a first step lol… I think some sort of pod would work better for me, keep me nice and cocooned, minimise all that movement, but then that defies the whole idea of taking your bed out, but now I’m just overthinking it… 😂

It’s a no from me, my joints hurt just watching this thing bouncing around 😩😂

But hey, wouldn’t it be great if the world were that accessible…

All I can say to this bizarre reply is that the whitewashed version of history (never mind current events, since some of those conflicts are still ongoing, violently, today) you were taught at school, or hear about in the msm isn’t the reality, and that none of those conflicts were fucking peaceful, or came to a conclusion because those in power just decided to give it up.

Pick up a fucking book (or watch a video, or listen to a podcast, however you take information in, go and do that, but only if you can cope with challenging your bias, otherwise it becomes a completely pointless exercise)

E: Like, honestly, do you seriously believe there is any point in talking to Putin? Do you think an open and proud totalitarian known for throwing his opponents out of windows is a trustworthy person who will have good faith and stay true to his word? Do you fucking hear yourself???

Lmfao, where did I even imply that? Talk about projecting… 😂😂😂

I’m not sure who “you people” are, but at no point did I claim to know what’s best, but I sure as fuck know, from knowing history and paying attention, that tyranny doesn’t go away by asking nicely. Never has, never will.

So a better question would be wtf is with you claiming you know anything at all about global conflict or fascism? Its like you’re larping as a wilfully ignorant and overly confident centrist who is happy to lay others lives on the line and let war rage on as long as we aren’t mean to a dictator. 🙄

It actually was precisely the plan - conspiracy theories are sown by the establishment to deflect from itself and shift blame elsewhere, so they can get away with whatever they want to and still maintain power.

Qanon was about deflecting “the most rich and powerful in society get away with trafficking, rape, and murder” to “liberals get away with trafficking, rape, and murder”. In the same way that “the economy is controlled by a small group of rich and powerful capitalists” is deflected to “the economy is controlled by Jews”, and “abusive men in positions of power groom children” to “drag queens groom children”.

It’s one way to manufacture consent, and it works.

The idea that it is possible to “diplomacy” your way out of conflict with a dictator is so absurd I want to laugh my ass off, but unfortunately it isn’t funny at all.

Putin will happily send every last Russian in to the meat grinder before he accept defeat, and now that he has his American buddy back in place, now with added musk funds, it is seriously delusional to think the situation is going to do anything other than escalate.

Zelenskyy is being beyond naive at best (I honestly don’t believe he believes in what he’s saying).

I don’t disagree with the general spirit of the post (E: and I’m pretty sure you aren’t the one who made it), but the ableist last point and “brain damage” wojack ruin it. Also fuck electoralism. We can do better.

Thanks for the explanation, I would have never figured out the stripping of the post down to those letters part lol

a closest DNA/genome string

To what? As in - what in that thread is it relating the moth to? (it’s fine if you don’t remember, but if anyone else does, I need my confusion eased lol)

So accurate, though I dare say they’re even more pathetic - "I was hateful and abusive to you, but you spoke up and demanded I stop, which hurt my feelings, that’s why I voted for Hitler. It’s your fault.”

Because the only people drifting further in to bigotry “because” those they’re bigoted against stand up for themselves, were already bigots to begin with. They’re just critically aware (though they’ll never admit it) of just how much privilege they actually have, and find the idea of having that challenged, never mind being equal and equitable to everyone else, completely unacceptable and even repulsive, but mostly terrifying (because the only way they can fathom it going is that they will be treated under feminism the same way they treat us under the patriarchy) and they will invest everything they have in to maintaining the oppressive structures that serve them.

Except that film offers zero criticism of capitalism, only a promotion of eugenics, ableism, and classism (which are some of the very same unethical structures that are inherent to and serve capitalism). 👎

We’re all rooting for you!

“raging feminism” often actually causes increased misogyny

Are you fucking high?!
