#anarchism

[here-for-the-vibe]

Together we rise. We rise against those who seek to conquer.

no matter the outcome of this election: organize, build local community, build strength in masses. elections aren't the only time politics happen, it also happens on the streets, in the community and by mutually supporting each other.

the way forward is together. we build power from the ground up. in the US and everywhere else in the world.

a better world is possible and we can start building it now, by ourselves. anarchism starts in the now.

My dear American friends,

I know today is a day that might feel incredibly dark, given a fascist is once more crowned President of the United States. But I want you to remember that in the end fascism is always a sign of capitalism failing.

Back in the 1940s, when Nazi Germany fell, the mistake made - in which the US played a big role - was not only letting Capitalism stay in effect, but pushing for more capitalism.

Capitalism is a leftover to this day of the noble hierarchies, that started to be dismantled after the French Revolution. Certain nobles back in the day hedged the rather brilliant plan back in the day to push for capitalism and meritocracy, knowing fully well that they - with their ancient riches - could no fail in that system. They would still be nobles, just by another title. And those old nobles will cling to this power, until they are disposed off.

But please remember this wonderful quote by Ursula K. LeGuin.

We live in capitalism, its power seems inescapable — but then, so did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings.

We already get rid of kings and the system of nobility. We can do it again.

And just on related news: Tomorrow, the 21st, is the 232nd Anniversary of the execution of the French King Louis XVI. Ending a system is possible.

TWICE!!! He did it twice!!! We’re in hell!!!

You Americans are aware that they can’t arrest ALL of you…right?

There’s no better time to protest, this is end-stage capitalism and it’s only going to end in one way

The revolution needs to be NOW or Trump is going to recreate WW2

It’s time to flip over the monopoly board

The power lies in the masses, and as much as I hate the lack of gun control in the States you guys have a right to bear arms, use it

Thank you for summing up how I feel about this so succinctly!

"tiktok has massive problems that even if you don't agree with a complete ban have to be addressed for all social media platforms" and "the Chinese government is doing pretty awful things" and "there is a lot of sinophobic fearmongering and double standards in the conversation about tiktok" and "people should exercise basic caution signing up to foreign or domestic social media" and "most Chinese citizens like US citizens are just people living their life and cultural exchange between them can be beneficial for both sides" and "some people being on the same social media site isn't going to solve everything " and "I want to study the linguistics happening there under a microscope" are opinions that can coexist

Fun fact: In uni I had once class on Social Geography with a very, very anarchist professor. (I very much appreciated this, though. Getting to read anarchist texts for uni? That was nice.) And he kept pushing this aspect: "If you talk to a factory worker in China, or India, or anywhere in Africa, you will find that you have a lot more in common with them, than you would have with any billionaire."

you have more in common with the average citizen in china than any us politician

Hey.

Hey, look me in the eyes.

*grabs you by the collar like I’m gonna give you a 1930’s mob style shakedown*

Don’t Go Back To TikTok.

DON’T.

I get that you hunger for content. I get that it was a fun/interesting/horrifying time that brought you entertainment.

The fun times of Pre-Ban TikTok are gone.

It can, and most certainly WILL, be used as a MAGA propaganda machine.

Donny The Insufferable Prick is going to shove his piss-and-shit-covered fingies into the TikTok eggsalad. DO NOT EAT THE PISS SALAD.

TikTok is already trying to glaze him as “the savior of the app”, meaning he more than likely has them in his pocket now.

This means:

• A constant stream of propaganda.

• An erasure of pro-queer/POC/marginalized content.

• A monitoring of your content for collection by the fascist pigs in the government.

• Censoring of ANY form of Mutual Aid and praxis that isn’t sucking off the New Regime.

And many more consequences.

So please, DO NOT USE TIKTOK.

I'm I've been a commuist for years now, and disabled my whole life. I've haven't done great in school, and I've only ever had one longish term job that was years ago. I completely agree with this, but even still, I feel guilty and stressed most of the time for not being productive enough. I think some of it is because with my disorders (ADHD Autism, Depression, I have to be constantly pushing myself to get anything done, and often times nothing gets done anyways, but I also think a lot of is just my brain being trained this way by the capitalist system, and it's ableism. I know logically that being productive doesn't as much as they say and that my life is the way it is because of things out of my control, but it's still a feeling that I can't shake. I hope I'm not the only person who feels the same way.

you don't have to be productive for your life to matter; you have inherent worth simply by being alive. your productivity also doesn't determine if you're a good or bad person; you are more than what capitalism expects you to be.

you are an entire person with feelings, dreams, thoughts, wants, needs, things you enjoy, values... that matters a lot more than working in any capacity - as a job, at school, at home... you're just so much more significant than that.
