you know those memes where people edited games covers to have all sorts of labels on them like "featuring dante from the devil may cry series" and "& Knuckles" and "New Funky Mode" and all that

well

I found one they were missing

Introducing, Anarchism! An honest pitch:

"Its no social panacea, but neither is coercion."

"Won't inherently solve anything, but at least its not making it worse like hierarchies do."

"Karen might still be an anti-vaxxer, but generally conspiracy theorists are gonna have a harder time finding imaginary sources of collusion to blame things on."

"Teachers show your kids how to solve problems and cultivate a community instead of just following orders. May still wanna check on what they're getting taught, though."

"Still gotta do organized work to some extent, but at least your bosses actually have to contribute for once. And everyone can agree to try to work less, or make work easier and more enjoyable."

"Take a nap, you're not on the clock."

"You don't have to justify your continued existence to anyone."

"No ads. Just bulletins. Might still pester you sometimes, but at least its not products in your face."

"Still gonna have to deal with the climate crisis and change a few habits, but at least extremely stubborn and manipulative corporations and governments aren't what need to be malleable to change course."

"No police" (this has no downside)

#anarchism

solidarity is action, contribution, or at least rebroadcasting, not just another way of saying "I'm sending my thoughts and prayers"

this is bi erasure

kids are great because you can tell them that one guy has more money than it would take to feed the entire world or that there’s more empty homes than houseless people and they understand why that is absurd and evil.

hoomans are adorable!!!!!!!

@popstar tbh i'm still haunted by Listen Here Cum-Slut,

People: "This service is horrible. Nobody monitors it or anything."

Me: "Maybe decentralizing helps. It ensures that all the smaller parts are properly monitored, while allowing all to communicate.:

People: "But who is in control of everything then???? That can't work. It's anarchy!"

@emberr you're a lichenfolk butcher! your affinity for decay led you to learning how to dismantle things into their tastiest component parts.

I live in a country

- where refugee children are put in prisons
- where corporations fund climate change denial
- where cops murder men of color and lie about it
- where weapons exports is a powerful industry
- where corrupt politicians make secret deals with oil companies
- where it is legal for agencies to mass-collect data of people not connected to any crime
- with some of the highest levels of CCTV per sq/km in the world

ya know.. the Netherlands.

My point here obviously isn’t ‘the Netherlands is the worst place in the world world’,
it’s ‘stop pretending all this shit is a US thing instead of a widespread capitalism + colonialism and white supremacy thing'.
Don't let people hold up European countries as 'the good ones', they're really really not.
