This is an awesome information resource! Also, free Palestine, and THE STATE CANNOT ERASE THE PEOPLE! THE PEOPLE WILL ERASE THE STATE! THE PEOPLE MUST ERASE THE STATE! YOU WANT WAR? YOU'LL GET WAR, MOTHERFUCKERS! Ahem. This is a very important subject that shouldn't be ignored. The military industrial complex and their relationship to silencing protests has to be dealt with by the people. It's completely unacceptable. The government (the state) won't, because they're fucking weak and greedy. It's been going on for so long now. Always the time for the people to use that second amendment. Equalize American weaponry or the weaponry must be destroyed, and it has to stop being sent to murder people in unrelated countries. The state can't keep doing this to people, It has to be stopped if it won't stop itself.

First time hearing of him, but he's on point and the video is well done. Thank you for the shout-out!
Stubbornness is a serious obstacle, both individually and societally. I entirely agree with changing our agriculture and chemical paradigms. The standard we currently have is murdering the world. Psychedelics, specifically psilocybin, is an important part of not only humanity but the earth itself. I personally don't like cars and I never have. I've always tried to find ways to avoid them, I need the exercise anyway haha. I'm working on moving to a greener and self-grown diet, because it's definitely healthier and tastier than the shit I'm buying at the supermarkets. I feel I've been fairly lucky to be able to make these changes. So much of the system does everything it can to make it difficult for people who want to change to a more sustainable and caring model. I decided when I was in school, planning on a psychiatry degree, that the most effective way to heal minds (plural) isn't to change the individual, but to change the structure the individual is in. Sure you can fight symptoms, but until you address the cause of why people are hurting, the hurt will continue. I since have had a bigger focus on alternative sociology, which I feel psychedelic support is a part of. I think alot of stubbornness comes from lack of information. People can't see what's good because the system doesn't want them to. Thanks for posting this.
This is very interesting information. So rude of the UN, especially while they can't barely be bothered to even think about AI. Also, sad that people are trying to separate capitalism and the climate crisis when they're so intrinsically related. Greenwashing is such a pain in the ass.
Now that is some seriously adorable art. Thanks for sharing. I'm starting work on making my garden. It's likely going to be a years long project due to the area I'm working with and doing it all myself. I plan to get pictures before and after and post it along with the design sheet and materials. I'm going to try and make it as clean energy as I can, and I'm going to be doing some soil experiments. I've also just arrived to this server and am likely going to be starting up some punk communities that need more representation later in the year.
Fixing a toilet should be considered a basic life skill, in my opinion. So is plastering, which is basically just large-scale patching. Toilets are important for quality of life, or are you going to try and disagree with that too? You're literally the one moving the goalpost and you admit that by referring to the comments rather than the post, which was what I was talking about, and have always been talking about. Maybe stop throwing a fit just because I said the people deserve better education and that capitalism sucks. Both are true whether you like hearing it or not. Anarcho-communism believes in strengthening the individual so that if the society fails, the people can still survive well. It's called self-sustainability. Be mad at it if you want, doesn't make it wrong.
Oppression isn't just bodily autonomy. It includes restriction of the mind.
You're a fool. This system only continues as long as we let it. You are the one who doesn't understand math. Many people in this country don't vote, because they fucking hate this system. There are many more non-voters than there are voters. Provide them the way out, you'll start seeing real voter turnout. Most people hear this shit you're spewing and so motherfuckers like Trump and Biden happen. FUCK YOUR SYSTEM.
By Biden's campaign?
A mother, angry about state motherfuckers, downvoted on mother's day. Damn.
The second amendment: "WELL REGULATED MILITIA", which is quite specifically a citizen's army. I'm literally just advocating rights we were guaranteed at the beginning of our constitution. This shouldn't actually be controversial. If you can't regulate to an equal playing field, the only way to "well regulate" is by destruction. "Arms" isn't exclusive to guns just as it isn't exclusive to bombs. It is however made exclusive to THE PEOPLE'S RIGHT to "bear arms". The people can find equality in arms that aren't totally insane (such as the arms they had when the constitution was written), and that is an important part of saying "well regulated". They designated the military as not an official part of "the people" (the citizenry), and the military itself technically has no right to bear arms. That is why it is within the purview of the second amendment, and arguably the government's job, to destroy all arms not accessible to the people (and in the case of the military, arms not accessible to ALL PEOPLE). The very point of it is to assure equal weaponry so that the people are not forced from their freedom by the power of the larger societal structures, whether that be a state, a military, or capitalism.
The government owes the people respect, not the other way around. They put food on their table with our money, our work, whether we agree or not. The government's money isn't the government's money, it's the people's money, distributed. If they're going to take our money with or WITHOUT CONSENT and put it towards something else, especially something like murdering innocent people for what mostly seems to be a religious cause, we have to be allowed to complain. We have to be able to shut them down if they won't change, as the people. The founding fathers intended for our system to change, or we wouldn't even be able to make amendments. The constitution itself was an intended change from the static religious monarchy of Britain, which required civil war because it was static (it refused to equitably change).
The state, especially the federal government, technically only exists to regulate currency (and resulting industry) as the people need for maximum well-being. So the state needs to get their heads out of their ass and do it instead of trying to silence protestors during national crisis and every war or they'll be, in a sense, fired. It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. Then again, if they were actually doing their fucking job, none of this shit would be happening. The constitution isn't an unreasonable structure. The biggest problem is that we have let capitalism completely overwrite it, which is quite literally the opposite of what the constitution intended. Once again, "WELL REGULATED".
