It will be helpful to have a power analysis in our minds, specifically that’s known as the upside-down triangle. This tool was built to explain how power moves even under dictatorships.
The central tenet is that like an upside-down triangle, power can be unstable. It naturally topples over without anything supporting it. To prevent that, power relies on pillars of support to keep it upright.
Casually, the left often focuses on pillars of support that include governments, media, corporations, shareholders and policy makers. Describing the pillars of support, Gene Sharp wrote:
By themselves, rulers cannot collect taxes, enforce repressive laws and regulations, keep trains running on time, prepare national budgets, direct traffic, manage ports, print money, repair roads, keep markets supplied with food, make steel, build rockets, train the police and army, issue postage stamps or even milk a cow. People provide these services to the ruler though a variety of organizations and institutions. If people would stop providing these skills, the ruler could not rule.
Removing one pillar of support can often gain major, life-saving concessions. In response to Trump’s 2019 government shutdown, flight attendants prepared a national strike. Such a strike would ground planes across the country and a key transportation network. Within hours of announcing they were “mobilizing immediately” for a strike, Trump capitulated.
Another example comes from the recently deceased long-time activist Dick Taylor. In his book “Blockade,” he writes about how he and a tiny group changed U.S. foreign policy by repeatedly blocking armaments sent to support Pakistani dictator Yahya Khan. The ragtag crew sent canoes to block mighty military shipments leaving from East Coast ports until eventually the International Longshoremen’s Association was persuaded to refuse to load them. This broke the back of national policy.
For larger system change we have to look outside of recent U.S. organizing. A good place to start is with Waging Nonviolence’s recent interview series with folks sharing key lessons on fighting autocracies and aiming for system change.
In our country, pressuring elite power is reaching its end point. Power will need to emerge from folks no longer obeying the current unjust system. This tipping point of mass noncooperation will be messy. It means convincing a lot of people to take huge personal risks for a better option.
As a “Disrupt and Disobey” person, we have to move deliberately to gain the trust of others, like the “Protecting People” folks. Mass noncooperation does the opposite of their goal of protection — it exposes people to more risk, more repression. But with that comes the possibility that we could get the kind of liberatory government that we all truly deserve.
9. Handle fear, make violence rebound
Otpor in Serbia has provided an abundance of examples on how to face repression. They were young people who took a sarcastic response to regular police beatings. They would joke amongst each other, “It only hurts if you’re scared.”
Their attitude wasn’t cavalier — it was tactical. They were not going to grow fear. So when hundreds were beaten on a single day, their response was: This repression will only stiffen the resistance.
This is attitude.
They were also practical. They would follow their arrested protesters to jail cells and insist on making sure they were being treated well. They would target police who beat them up — showing up outside their houses with pictures of the people they beat up. Their call was rooted in the future they wanted: “You’ll have a chance to join us.”
Handling fear isn’t about suppressing it — but it is about constantly redirecting. One activist described to me two motions in the universe: shrinking or expansion. When Donald Trump directs the Justice Department to use sedition charges against protesters or arrest his political enemies like Jamie Raskin or Liz Cheney, what’s our response?
Activist/intellectual Hardy Merriman released a studied response about political violence that had some news that surprised me. The first was that physical political violence hasn’t grown dramatically in this country — it still remains relatively rare. The threats of violence, however, trend upwards, such as this CNN report: “Politically motivated threats to public officials increased 178 percent during Trump’s presidency,” primarily from the right.
His conclusion wasn’t that political violence isn’t going to grow. Quite the opposite. But he noted that a key component to political violence is to intimidate and tell a story that they are the true victims. Making political violence rebound requires refusing to be intimidated and resisting those threats so they can backfire. (Training on this backfire technique is available from the HOPE-PV guide.)
We can shrink into a cacophony of “that’s not fair,” which fuels the fear of repression. Or we take a page from the great strategist Bayard Rustin.
Black civil rights leaders were targeted by the government of Montgomery, Alabama during the bus boycott in the 1950s. Leaders like the newly appointed Martin Luther King Jr. went into hiding after police threats of arrest based on antiquated anti-boycott laws. Movement organizer Rustin organized them to go down to the station and demand to be arrested since they were leaders — making a positive spectacle of the repression. Some leaders not on police lists publicly demanded they, too, get arrested. Folks charged were met with cheers from crowds, holding their arrest papers high in the air. Fear was turned into valor.
Grieve AND organize.
Good article by David Hunter on how to survive the Trump presidency, both on the personal and on the political plane.

The next pandemic is inevitable. Australia isn’t ready - Published Sept 23, 2024
(Before you Americans yell at me, It's already the 23rd in Australia. This is very late-breaking)
I thought this was a really good breakdown of the current situation given the government-approved covid denial we live in. Long, but worth a read.
By Kate Aubusson and Mary Ward
Top infectious disease and public health veterans at the nerve centre of the state’s war against COVID-19 are sounding the alarm.
NSW is less prepared today to fend off a deadly pandemic despite the lessons of COVID-19, say top infectious disease and public health veterans at the nerve centre of the state’s war against the virus.
And we won’t have another hundred years to wait.
NSW’s gold standard Test-Trace-Isolate-Quarantine and vaccination strategies will be useless if a distrusting population rejects directives, refuses to give up its freedoms again, and the goodwill of shell-shocked public health workers dries up.
A panel of experts convened by The Sydney Morning Herald called for a pandemic combat agency akin to the armed forces or fire brigades to commit to greater transparency or risk being caught off guard by the next virulent pathogen and misinformation with the potential to spread faster than any virus.
“It’s inevitable,” says Professor Eddie Holmes of the next pandemic. A world-leading authority on the emergence of infectious diseases at the University of Sydney, Holmes predicts: “We’ll have less than 100 years [before the next pandemic].
“We’re seeing a lot of new coronaviruses that are spilling over into animals that humans are interacting with,” said Holmes, the first person to publish the coronavirus genome sequence for the world to see.
“People are exposed all the time, and each time we are rolling the dice.”
The independent review of NSW Health’s response to COVID-19 opened with the same warning: “No health system or community will have the luxury of 100 years of downtime.”
Pandemic preparedness needs to be a “permanent priority”, wrote the report’s author, Robyn Kruk, a former NSW Health secretary, “rather than following the path of those that have adopted a ‘panic and forget strategy,’ allowing system preparedness to wane”.
Why we don’t have 100 years to wait for the next pandemic The World Health Organisation has declared seven public health emergencies of international concern since 2014, including the current mpox outbreak.
Climate change is turbocharging the factors that coalesce to create the perfect breeding ground for a pandemic-causing virus, including population increases, bigger cities, and better-connected global markets and migration.
“Animals will be forced into more constrained environments, and humans that rely on those environments will be again constrained in the same environments. There will be more wet markets, more live animal trade that will just increase exposure,” Holmes said.
“It was clear that we weren’t ready [for COVID],” said Jennie Musto, who, after seven years working for the World Health Organisation overseas, became NSW Health’s operations manager for the Public Health Emergency Operations Centre, the team responsible for NSW’s COVID-19 contact tracing and containment.
“Everyone had preparedness plans gathering dust on a shelf, but no one was actually ready to respond, and so everyone was on the back foot,” Musto said. “Perhaps none of us really thought this was going to happen. We were waiting 500 years.”
Who would willingly become the next doomed whistleblower? Eddie Holmes, known for his repeated assertion that SARS-CoV-2 did not come from a lab, is deeply concerned that when the next pandemic-causing virus emerges, chances are it will be covered up.
“My worry is that if the virus appeared in a small population, say, somewhere in Southeast Asia, the people involved wouldn’t blow the whistle now, given the fact that you would get blamed,” he said.
Li Wenliang, the Wuhan doctor who tried to raise the alarm about a virulent new virus, was reportedly reprimanded by police for spreading rumours and later died of COVID-19.
The global blame game, culminating in a deep distrust of China and accusations that the virus was grown in a Wuhan lab, is why Holmes believes “we’re in no better place than we were before COVID started, if not worse”.
“I work with a lot of people in China trying to keep the lines of communication open, and they’re scared, I think, or nervous about saying things that are perceived to counter national interest.”
From a vaccine perspective, our defences look strong. There have been monumental advancements in vaccine development globally, driven by mRNA technology. In Sydney this month, construction began on an RNA vaccine research and manufacturing facility.
“But the way I see it is that nothing has been done in terms of animal surveillance of outbreaks or data sharing. The [global] politics has got much, much worse,” Holmes said.
Combat force Conjoint Associate Professor Craig Dalton, a leading public health physician and clinical epidemiologist, called for a dramatic expansion of the public health workforce and the establishment of a pandemic combat force that would routinely run real-time pandemic simulations during “peacetime”.
“No one is upset with fire brigades spending most of the time not fighting fires. They train. A lot. And that’s probably how we need to move,” he said.
“We need exercise training units so that every major player in pandemic response is involved in a real-time, three to four-day pandemic response every three to five years at national, state and local [levels].”
The federal Department of Health and Aged Care recently ran a health emergency exercise focused on governance arrangements involving chief health officers and senior health emergency management officials, a spokeswoman for Health Minister Mark Butler said. The outcomes of this exercise will be tested later this year.
Dalton said desktop simulations and high-level exercises involving a handful of chiefs didn’t cut it, considering the thousands of people working across regions and states. He instead suggested an intensive training program run in the Hunter New England region before the 2009 H1N1 pandemic provided a good model.
“We were ringing people, actors were getting injections, just like a real pandemic,” said Dalton, who once ordered a burrito in a last-ditch effort to contact a restaurant exposed to COVID-19.
Our heroes have had it The expert panel was emphatic that our pandemic response cannot once again rely on the goodwill of the public health and healthcare workforce.
According to the Kruk review, what began as an emergency response ultimately morphed from a sprint into an ultra marathon and “an admirable (yet unsustainable) ‘whatever it takes’ mindset”.
They were hailed as heroes, but the toll of COVID-19 on healthcare workers was brutal. Workloads were untenable, the risk of transmission was constant, and the risk of violence and aggression (for simply wearing their scrubs on public transport in some cases) was terrifying.
“We got through this pandemic through a lot of people working ridiculous hours,” Dalton said.
“You talk to a lot of people who did that and say they could not do it again.”
Tellingly, several expert personnel who worked at the front lines or in the control centre of NSW’s pandemic defences were invited to join the Herald’s forum but declined. Revisiting this period of intense public scrutiny, culminating in online attacks and physical threats, was just too painful.
So long, solidarity Arguably, the biggest threat to our pandemic defences will be the absence of our greatest strength during COVID: the population’s solidarity and willingness to follow public health orders even when it meant forfeiting fundamental freedoms.
The public largely complied with statewide public health orders, including the stay-at-home directive that became the 107-day Delta lockdown, and other severe restrictions prevented many from being at the bedside of their dying loved ones, visiting relatives in aged care homes and attending funerals.
“My worry is that next time around when those sorts of rules come out, people may say, ‘Well, don’t worry about it.’ They relax it in the future. Why don’t we just not stick to the rules?” said Professor Nicholas Wood, associate director of clinical research and services at the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance.
“I’m not sure we quite understand whether people [will be] happy with those rules again,” he said.
Dalton was more strident.
“I tend to agree with Michael Osterholm … an eminent US epidemiologist [who] recently said the US is probably less prepared for a pandemic now than it was in 2019, mostly because the learnings by health departments in the COVID pandemic may not make a material difference if faced with a community that distrusts its public health agencies,” he said.
“If H1N1 or something else were to spill over in the next couple of years, things like masks, social distancing and lockdowns would not be acceptable. Vaccination would be rejected by a huge part of the population, and politicians might be shy about putting mandates in.”
As for the total shutdown of major industries, people will struggle to accept it unless the next pandemic poses a greater threat than COVID, said UNSW applied mathematician Professor James Wood.
The risk of the virus to individuals and their families will be weighed against the negative effects of restrictions, which are much better understood today, said Wood, whose modelling of the impact of cases and vaccination rates was used by NSW Health.
“Something like school closure would be a much tougher argument with a similar pathogen,” he said.
A previous panel of education experts convened by the Herald to interrogate pandemic decision-making in that sector was highly critical of the decision to close schools for months during NSW’s Delta lockdown.
Greg Dore, professor of infectious diseases and epidemiology at the Kirby Institute, said the public’s reluctance to adhere to restrictions again may, in part, be appropriate.
“Some of the restrictions on people leaving the country were a bit feudal and too punitive,” he said. “Other restrictions were plain stupid, [for instance] limitations on time exercising outside.”
Meanwhile, the delays to publicly recognise the benefits of face masks and the threat of airborne transmission “ate away at trust”, Dalton said.
“We shouldn’t make those mistakes again,” he said.
Transparent transgressions Uncertainty is not something politicians are adept at communicating, but uncertainty is the only constant during a pandemic of a novel virus.
Vaccines that offered potent protection against early iterations of the COVID virus were less effective against Omicron variants.
“[The public], unfortunately, got hit by a rapid sequence of changes of what was ‘true’ in the pandemic,” James Wood said.
Political distrust can be deadly if governments give the public reason to suspect they are obfuscating.
The expert panel urged NSW’s political leaders to be far more transparent about the public health advice they were given before unilaterally enforcing restrictions.
There was a clear line between public health advice and political decision-making in Victoria. The Victorian chief health officer’s written advice was routinely published online.
In NSW, that line was blurred as Chief Health Officer Kerry Chant stood beside political leaders, most notably former premier Gladys Berejiklian, at the daily press conferences.
Public health experts said that they looked for subtle cues to determine the distinction between the expert advice and the political messaging during press conferences, paying attention to body language, who spoke when and who stayed silent.
“It is fine for public health personnel to have a different view to politicians. They have different jobs. What is not OK is to have politicians saying they are acting on public health advice [when they are not],” he said.
The ‘whys’ behind the decisions being made were missing from the daily press conferences, which created “a vacuum for misinformation”, said social scientist and public health expert Professor Julie Leask at the University of Sydney.
“The communication about what you need to do came out, and it was pretty good ��� but the ‘why we’re doing this’ and ‘what trade-offs we’ve considered’ and ‘what dilemmas we’ve faced in making this decision’; that was not shared,” Leask said.
The infodemic In the absence of transparency, misinformation and disinformation fill the vacuum.
“We had an ‘infodemic’ during the pandemic,” said Dr Jocelyne Basseal, who worked on the COVID-19 response for WHO in the Western Pacific and leads strategic development at the Sydney Infectious Diseases Institute, University of Sydney.
“The public has been so confused. Where do we go for trusted information [when] everyone can now write absolutely anything, whether on Twitter [now called X] or [elsewhere] on the web?” Basseal said.
A systematic review conducted by WHO found misinformation on social media accounted for up to 51 per cent of posts about vaccines, 29 per cent of posts about COVID-19 and 60 per cent of posts about pandemics.
Basseal’s teenage children recently asked whether they were going into lockdown after TikTok videos about the mpox outbreak.
“There is a lot of work to be done now, in ‘peacetime’ … to get ahead of misinformation,” Basseal said, including fortifying relationships with community groups and teaching scientists – trusted and credible sources of information – how to work with media.
In addition to the Kruk review’s six recommendations to improve its pandemic preparedness, NSW Health undertook a second inquiry into its public health response to COVID-19, which made 104 recommendations.
NSW Health Minister Ryan Park said: “We are working hard to ensure the findings and recommendations from those reports are being implemented as quickly as possible.”
The expert panellists spoke in their capacity as academics and not on behalf of NSW Health or WHO.
The ‘As One System’ review into NSW Health’s COVID-19 response made six recommendations 1. Make governance and decision-making structures clearer, inclusive, and more widely understood 2. Strengthen co-ordination, communication, engagement, and collaboration 3. Enhance the speed, transparency, accuracy, and practicality of data and information sharing 4. Prioritise the needs of vulnerable people and communities most at risk, impacted and in need from day one 5. Put communities at the centre of emergency governance, planning, preparedness, and response 6. Recognise, develop and sustain workforce health, wellbeing, capability and agility.

About Varnas
Let's dive deeper into some other interesting concepts used in Jyotish. One of them is called Varna or social class or categories that define the roles, responsibilities, and duties of individuals. These Varnas are not merely occupational classifications but also represent a framework for understanding the inherent qualities and purposes of individuals within the larger social hierarchy. Traditionally, different varnas are associated with different natural elements.
4 CLASSIC TYPES OF VARNAS (FROM THE HIGHEST TO LOWEST)
Brahmins ( the priests and people of higher knowledge - water element)
Kshatriyas (the warriors - fire element)
Vaishyas (the merchants - earth element)
Shudras ( the servants - air element)
Note: this classification is a classic one, created in ancient times when the highest hierarchy included the priests, doctors, teachers and occultists, in other words, people who had access to secret knowledge, which wasn't accessible to simple people. Historically, the Varna system has faced criticism, especially with the emergence of the caste system, which imposed rigid and often discriminatory practices. Nowadays, this classification looks different due to modern occupations, however, the core meaning and order remain the same- from water to air elements, from brahmins being on the top of the classification to shudras at the bottom.
Brahmins (water)
Role: Brahmins are the spiritual leaders, priests, and scholars of society. They are considered the highest Varna and are responsible for preserving and disseminating sacred knowledge.
Qualities: they are typically characterized by wisdom, knowledge, and a commitment to spiritual practices. Brahmins are seen as guardians of the Vedas (sacred texts) and are often involved in rituals, education, and guiding others on spiritual paths.
Duties: their primary duties (dharma) include performing religious ceremonies, teaching the scriptures, and providing counsel on spiritual matters. They also play a crucial role in upholding ethical standards and guiding society in moral and philosophical issues.
Occupations: common occupations include priests, those who are involved in medicine and healing, scholars, educators, spiritual leaders, and astrologers.
Element: water, representing the depth of the personality, wisdom and sacred knowledge
Kshatriyas (fire)
Role: Kshatriyas are the warrior and the second ruling class, responsible for protection, governance, and maintaining law and order in society.
Qualities: they embody bravery, leadership, and a sense of duty. Kshatriyas are seen as protectors of the realm and upholders of justice.
Duties: their right activities involve protecting the people, engaging in warfare when necessary, and governing with integrity and fairness. They are responsible for ensuring the safety and prosperity of the community.
Occupations: common occupations include kings, military leaders, politicians, state officers, surgeons, sportsmen, business people managing large corporations, law enforcement officials.
Element: fire, representing action, protection, dominance and power
Vaishyas (earth)
Role: Vaishyas are the merchant and agricultural class, responsible for trade, commerce, and economic activities that support society.
Qualities: they are characterized by resourcefulness, creativity, and entrepreneurship. Vaishyas play a vital role in managing wealth and resources for the community.
Duties: their activities involve engaging in agriculture, trade, marketing, sales and administration, as well as ensuring the availability of goods and services. They contribute to the economic development of society.
Occupations: common occupations include farmers, traders, merchants, middle business owners, entrepreneurs and administrators.
Element: earth, representing stability, groundedness, material resourcefulness and support
Shudras (air)
Role: Shudras are the labouring class, responsible for service and entertainment-oriented roles that support the other three Varnas.
Qualities: they embody qualities such as humility, diligence, ability to work with routines and practicality. Shudras provide essential services and labour that facilitate the functioning of society.
Duties: Their activities involve performing various forms of labour, craftsmanship, maintenance and service work. They serve the needs of the other three Varnas and contribute to societal stability.
Occupations: common occupations include artisans, labourers, people involved in construction, service providers, craftsmen, actors, singers, people involved in beauty industry and arts.
Element: air, representing an easy-going and service-oriented attitude, communication and dexterity.
Conceptual Framework of Varna
The Varna system is often viewed through the lens of guna (qualities) and karma (action). Each Varna corresponds to different qualities:
Brahmins are associated with sattva (purity and knowledge).
Kshatriyas are linked to rajas (action and passion).
Vaishyas are connected with rajas as well but with a focus on material and economic pursuits.
Shudras embody tamas (inertia and stability) but are essential for societal functions.
The importance of Varnas from the astrological point of view
Understanding one's Varna is important to determine the general psychological portrait of a person when analyzing a chart. The predominance of certain elements can give insights into the temper and potential of a person that he or she can strengthen further or those elements he or she simply lacks. Especially it is beneficial knowledge when it comes to questions of changing or identifying the best suitable professional domains, societal occupations and in general, life trajectory. Quite often, individuals have mixed results meaning that they have a certain percentage of each or almost each element.
Typically, the prevailing Varna is calculated by analyzing the elements of the planets and planetary strengths. The more planets in a certain element a person has, the more predominant a certain Varna is.
In short, Brahmins are Jupiter and Venus;
Ksatriyas are Sun and Mars;
Vaishyas are Moon and Mercury
Shudra is Saturn
Rahu and Ketu are not included in Varna calculation
Another reason to learn one's Varna
"...For twenty years a person is engaged in some activity, for example, reading Roman law, and on the twenty-first – suddenly it turns out that Roman law has nothing to do with it, that he does not even understand it and does not like it, but in fact he is a subtle gardener and burns with love for flowers. This happens, one must assume, from the imperfection of our social system, in which very often people get to their place only at the end of life." (с) Mikhail Bulgakov

Response To Comment on Socialism And Radical Politics.
radical-libertarian
If you take the attitude that untested systems should never be tested, we would be stuck in feudalism or barbarism.
Philosophicalconservatism
I take the attitude that politically directed experiments upon millions of human beings is unethical. The free market system was not tested in this way. It was tested and established through a process of organic social development, not by political fiat. An emergence of full individual property rights over many centuries was followed by a technological-industrial revolution that made the cultivation of inherited land less vital, and other processes more important to the creation of wealth (processes which required the continual productive input of the individual owner in order for his position of wealth to be maintained, unlike the cultivation of feudal land). This was an unanticipated natural development.
The issue with radical ideology (of all kinds) is that a radical revolution which instantaneously unravels the entire existing order and replaces it with a new one (never before known within that society) is only conceivable in a context of top down political dictation and control. On their own, societies change gradually, and from the bottom up. An individual human being (a single autonomous person) can, at a particular moment in time, choose to completely change himself or his lifestyle. Entire societies, which are made up of millions of independent individuals and the immensely complex relationships that have developed between them, do not just decide at a single moment in time to completely and fundamentally change the way they function as if they were individual personalities.
Now a society may reject a specific government if that government has been widely abusive and oppressive, but they will either make superficial changes (usually in personnel) that still keeps the gist of the old system intact, or they will throw their entire fate into the hands of a tyrant-dictator to restructure their lives (Napoleon, Lenin etc.). The father of modern Conservatism Edmund Burke warned the fomenters of the French Revolution that this artificial ideological push toward a radical ideal would simply lead to an even purer political authoritarianism and of course it did. The Conservative is one who understands that freedom and lasting progress are conditions that must be grown into; they are a product of social development over time and not of political contrivance. Societies can be tweaked slightly for the good by political action in the short-term, but they cannot be remade in that way.
Here is a piece I did a while ago which may be of interest to you given your politics.
