    thats like so fucking depressing

    instead of humans getting their shit together and stopping the industrial enslavement, torture and slaughter of animals, the hope is that with new tech they will reduce the cruelty

    its hard to not get misantropic sometimes… sysyems, not people. systems, not people…


  • a common understanding of radical by self described radicals is “targeting the root of an issue” or the “wanting large systemic changes” that follows from that.

    for radical feminists this means recognizing patriarchal power structures as the root of most gender related opressions and wishing to overcome them. while we can critique their exact analysis, i think the idea that many opressive acts are symptoms of deeper systemic opressions maked a lot of sense.

    please don’t let opressors convince you that liberation in itself goes too far. a better world is possible and the struggle for it is righteous.

    i think in this sense memes like this might even be detrimental, because they set the bar so high, barely anyone will take a shot.

    you dont need to kill police or politicians, probably throwing your life away, to make a difference. just find whatever horizontal organisations are providing for needs and building dual power in your area and join them.
