education is critical in this whole thing and it is telling that it is consistently under attack. when people get smartened up about something - shit gets done.

What Musk did is something akin to patching the holes in the bomber plane that came back from the mission instead of strengthening the parts that didn’t got hit during said mission. Dude completely missed the point of his own agenda.

exactly - and then they deny they did that and follow it up by posting the videos of the deed from couple of angles without batting an eye

my description made it look better than it actually was - that whole scene was incredibly toxic and hypocrite. It wasn’t a serious discussion on how to self-organize and create a sustainable community or just spread knowledge - it was mostly about “ain’t Nestor Makhno was a cool guy, huh? I think Bakunin was gangsta bro” - that kind of depth - shit like this is kindergarten. that is why i called it funny. It was posturing.

none of the folks who studied political theory and economy ever showed up in that place. It barely had anything to do with actual anarchism as much as it had everything to do with bunch of people just supporting each other in being childish and naive in their perception of the world. Nothing wrong with that in itself but it is very counterproductive in actually understanding anarchism as practical theory you can use in your life.

For whatever reason people vote for promises not track records. And even when the right people get in - the real problem has everything is that representation gets diluted with each successive government layer.

The higher it goes, the less it represents actual communities and regions. Even when the adequate people get all the way into parliament - you still have 80% of the cronies neutering their efforts and screwing everyone over. Not to mention those who just get corrupted by this kind of environment and opt into dirty dealings.

For example, you can elect fairly competent local representatives who would do their job like clockwork - but just one level above to the region level - and you get bunch of homies pushing their agendas instead of the region’s (which actively stifles local economy) and then the parliament is literally a menagerie of said characters at highest level mostly pushing their oligarch benefactor’s interest and cementing them in legislation (which actively stifles the economy state-wide). and then you get shit like labor codex being slanted towards employers to a ridiculous degree, you get tax legislation that doesn’t even make any sense, the whole business-related set of laws is downright hostile to new and small businesses in favor of big established companies and so on and so on.

Clippy wouldn’t approve of this. He’s definitely into octopuses.

back in the day our university had anarchist intellectual club. it consisted solely of tenured left-leaning professors who talked shit about their place of work while staying at work after hours to massage their egos and also first-year edgelords saying inspirational quotes from social media. it was funny as fuck to sit at their meet-ups and listen to their empty posturing. if you wanted to decompress and take it easy - that was the place.

it is even worse when someone is actively destroying clean water sources. Back when russians blew up the Kakhovka dam - there was a huge crisis because it wrecked the entire ecosystem and disrupted water supply for a couple of months. Before everything got worked out and the new infrastructure was installed - everything was running on makeshift water storages and filtering systems and the likes. So what russians decided to do? Send some drones to blow it up for shits and giggles.

there is also an issue with the scope of the whole system. it is way too big and too tangled to function smoothly.

because IP holders have enough pull to make their bitching and moaning heard instead of fixing inherent issues to force people into piracy.
