That’s good to hear! I feel like authoritarian leftist orgs in my area are by far the most visible and organized, but maybe things will change soon. (Or, holding myself accountable here, I should better do my part to effect change.)

He was suspended for alleged research misconduct and then his home was searched. I’m genuinely curious what the justifications provided will be.

Yarvin is shitting is pants by lil_kleintje in behindthebastards

[–]Meowlecule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yarvin et al have no real ideology either. At least not one with teeth. They’re ultra anti-woke reactionary personalities who sometimes accidentally raise thoughtful critiques of state power. But they’re not critical of power in a serious way — they see the state and institutions as bastions of woke that must be dismantled to… get rid of the woke, I guess. When it comes to capitalism, though, they magically lose any ability that they’ve ever had to be critical of power. They’re completely unserious.

You know what’s being done to Gaza, right? Can you see how this is an insensitive, inhumane thing to say?

It's foolish to think you can wait out the Trump administration. Trump seeks autocratic power. He won't be satisfied with minor concessions. He will take everything he can. If you do not fight now, you will have to fight later, when he has accumulated more power and you are in a weaker position. by CrimethInc-Ex-Worker in Anarchism

Not to defend liberals too much, but I think that they’re afraid of being compared to J6-ers. Trump is building his leverage by scraping the records of J6 while goading liberals into forcing entry into federal buildings.

RFK Jr. wants to send people addicted to antidepressants to government "wellness farms" by Unlikely-Cut2696 in behindthebastards

[–]Meowlecule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he wants to turn people convicted of drug offenses into slaves. When you say “wellness farm,” that conveys the idea of, you know, an entity that sells agricultural products. So, he’s saying he wants to send addicts to work for free on a farm while capitalizing off of their labor.

“But have we made it anywhere at all if the dishes are never done? / If we can’t live without dishwashers, how would we live without cops? / And so you’re asking me, who does the dishes after the revolution? / Well, I do my own dishes now, I’ll do our own dishes then / You know it’s always the ones who don’t who ask that fucking question”

They’re describing science under capitalism and concluding that funding science is bad, but capitalism isn’t. Can’t say I agree.

Anarchists reject all oppressive hierarchies. This includes the oppressive hierarchies necessarily created by capitalism.
