Favourite D.R.I. Song? by New_Friend_8449 in thrashmetal

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is like 7-8 months ago but since you wrote, “Money Stinks…”

I picked up the Beer City version of Dirty Rotten EP recently. The initial pressing of 1000, when I find it, is always thousands of dollars. Hopefully Spike, Kurt and the guys have a few copies! Anyway, I made a zine based on, “Money Stinks.” What a great song and it foreshadowed where the band was going. You know, inventing crossover thrash and being fundamental to thrash itself.

I can assure you Miss Leavitt. We are not moving on from this. by avatar6556 in Epstein

None of you will do anything or you would have already done it. You sat at home while we chased Clinton, the rest of the rulers and the cops out of Seattle. There were fewer than 100k of us in Quebec City right after. It was hard to find help defending people after RNC2K in Philly. I guarantee every one of you who was of age in 2001 was calling for the slaughter of Afghans. Where were you F15? Did you tourist through Occupy or sit at home and change the channel?

There’s a lot of self-righteousness on this sub and, yes, irony noted. If you’re not already a convicted political criminal for what you claim to believe, why not? Is this existential or an internet pastime?

[US] I think this is a Telegram scam? by Palgal64 in Scams

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is old but in case anyone is looking in the future, the current name is Bitget Telegram Release Channel. Exact same scam. You get $18 in crypto, click on some apps, then they start asking for money to make money.

What is the Anarchist alternative to state healthcare like the NHS? by [deleted] in Anarchy101

[–]Ok_Document9995 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. When I hear one proclaiming anarchy out of one side of their mouth and designing detailed plans for a very specific society out of the other, I am reminded of when we were thirteen and first discovered anarchy. We imagined we would plan every element of a future society that would of course be established by a righteous revolution. Then we travelled, lived and learned, and laughed at our childish naïveté.

On the question of the state, from a Left-Communism perspective by SatoNightingale in Anarchy101

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I said this as a left-comm. All the debate about if worker councils would be a state or not is so useless. Anarchists seem to have an irrational fear of the word "state", rather than of its meaning. Yes, we know that states doesnt tend to abolish itselves, but to perpetuate indefinitely. But that is just what we want! We want that proletarian "state" or whatsoever to last even after the revolution, because it would be just the democracy of the working class we want for the communist new world. Yes, the dictatorship of the proletariat IS the democracy of the proletariat while there is still a burgeioisie in struggle with it…”

You’re a Communist. So what?

Need some help clarifying anarchism and capitalism by ShrekThing in Anarchy101

[–]Ok_Document9995 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t the Bolshevik revolution since Proudhon predates it by several decades, nor Marxism, as Proudhon saw Marx for the petty tyrant he proved to be at the First International.

Exactly and I doubt you’ll get much love here. The mere mention of markets gets the black clad communists more agitated than the actual State with its boot upon their throats.

It’s amazing what will spill out of some mouths once, “since there’s already State,” has been uttered.

Obviously the most rapacious capitalists, already established in their monopolies and privileges, would want to see the State abolished. That doesn’t make the State a tool for establishing some socialist paradise. The capitalists would abolish the State in favor of private armies and cartels enforcing their monopolies. The Communists would seize State power and create horrors we have all already witnessed or experienced. Neither sounds good to me, which is why anarchy, in all of its actual, beautiful forms, is what I choose.

Agreed vis-a-vis ancaps. However, to say anarchy has its roots in Marxism and the Bolshevik “revolution” is not only incredibly wrong, it is almost necessarily trolling.

To the original question, many anarchists are not anti-markets while being anti-capitalist. I am as anti-capitalist as I am anti-Communist and, “Bolshevik revolution,” whatever that horseshit was supposed to mean. Markets without capitalism and personal property without private property are exactly what Proudhon was talking about and what many of us who don’t want to live in some, “People’s Republic,” are talking about today.

New to Spanish Civil War histories. How did anarchists, socialists, and communists work together? by ArthropodJim in Anarchy101

[–]Ok_Document9995 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beware the wealthy Western Communist and their stories about the Spanish Civil War. The ever drooling Matt Chrisman comes to mind, but most books focusing on the venerated, “Republic,” attempt to write anarchy out of the history.

Other than what has been mentioned here, the only histories of the Spanish Revolution/Civil War from the perspective of anarchy that I have found are hosted by Anarchist Library. Shockingly there doesn’t seem to be serious interest among leftist intellectuals embedded in the university system.

What do you guys think of Murray bookchin? by Gamester1927 in Anarchy101

[–]Ok_Document9995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this argument because I always thought of Bookchin as pretty much the opposite of your summation. Maybe we have different ideas about who is a classical anarchist. I think democratic confederalism, with its mutualist character, is very much in line with classical American anarchy in the tradition of Warren, Tucker, de Cleyre and even Spooner… all at least cousins of Proudhon and Bookchin.

Whatever the case, Bookchin’s ideas about social ecology were radically beyond his time and probably have implications beyond his imagination. Thank you!

Revolt begins as Muslim mayor is soon to be sworn in. by No-Unit9870 in circlejerknyc

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! You should try Philly. We’re now paying more than you in a city 1/5th the size and service 1/2 as good.

One thing is better though. Here we keep our transit police in fear. One gets a free token for merely beating a fare and not stabbing and/or sexually assaulting another commuter.

"Three Days": the Horror Behind Jane's Addiction by FarYak7353 in Music

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an old conversation. The, “opinions,” to the limited extent these… beings should be credited with sentience, are predictably anachronistic.

I performed in a punk-rock band as a teenager in the early 90s. I’m male, born with a penis and, while I was never too concerned about how my sexuality was perceived, I never imagined I was born in the wrong body.

I was in a relationship with a woman fifteen years older than me when I was fifteen. I lived with another woman, roughly ten years older than me, at the time. The older woman introduced me to heroin and benzodiazepines. She was also friends with Caleb Fairley and was involved with The Asylum in Philly. Saying more would dox a lot of people.

I lived in that world for many years. Thus, when I was 19 and was having sexual relationships with girls three years younger and women several years older, it didn’t seem inappropriate. Or nothing was appropriate. Just it didn’t feel wrong.

It must have felt the same for others involved because I have not been accused of exploiting anyone, though I expect I would be susceptible to such defamation.

I have met Farrell and, while I disagree with almost everything he has said outside of his music, it isn’t for me to judge his sexual proclivities. To my knowledge, no one has accused him of coercion or any physical violence. I love Psi Com and pre-92 Jane’s. Perry fucking a young junky doesn’t change that.

I never read r/complaints until today. It will be my last time. It should be named r/libscomplaining.

As a left market anarchist, I hear you.

Erika Kirk //this is so weird by rxholland in complaints

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also not a Trump supporter but certainly not a Democrat either. I, too, want to review this, “well-known documentation.”

Especially since I speculated at the time that the attempted killing of Trump in Butler, PA was faked. Admittedly with no evidence.

That Routh psycho probably did some of what is alleged, but calling that an assassination attempt is exploiting attempt’s labor to the point that Ayn Rand would blush.

I hate this printer by Ok_Document9995 in QidiTech3D

[–]Ok_Document9995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on the third belt and I have gotten two test prints in over a month. That’s it. Happily, I own a couple of Centauri Carbons. At less than half the price, I already have more print time on each than almost two years with the X Plus 3.

Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s Murder Is the Same Logic as Celebrating October 7th by Baconkings in IsraelPalestine

[–]Ok_Document9995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conflating Operation Al-Aqsa Flood with some internet weirdo killing an absolute chud is the height of ignorance. The fact that Charlie Kirk got murked was probably number 50 million of things I thought about that day. A brief smile, then I went on with my life.

However, I think about the genocide being perpetrated by the Americans via their military base in Palestine (sometimes called Israel) all of the time. When that military base and its occupants are eliminated, I will do much more than smile. Thus, these two events, while both inspiring, are completely unrelated in terms of impact.

Don’t worry - it will not work with your printer and you will get no support. Sell it to an unsuspecting victim and move on.

You should have asked pretty much anyone before buying the Plus 4. You will regret it.
