Saw Hulk Hogan trending and turns out he's dead. I searched to see if it's true and that racist asshole is finally gone. He also screwed other wrestlers over and lied. Stopped Jesse Ventura from forming a union by snitching him to the boss. He is also a Trump supporter so I don't feel sad for him.

Americans, I'm begging you, PLEASE stop tiktokifying your language even in non-censored spaced and topics, it's unbearable to listen to and often incomprehensible. Why the actual fuck are vapes "USB sticks" now? I shouldn't have to urban dictionary every sentence, because no phrase is safe with you.

If you want the state then you want cops. You are not for their abolition.

Text: "We Americans claim to be a peace-loving people. We hate bloodshed; we are opposed to violence. Yet we go into spasms of joy over the possibility of projecting dynamite bombs from flying machines upon helpless citizens. We are ready to hang, electrocute, or lynch anyone, who, from economic necessity, will risk his own life in the attempt upon that of some industrial magnate. Yet our hearts swell with pride at the thought that America is becoming the most powerful nation on earth, and that she will eventually plant her iron foot on the necks of all other nations. Such is the logic of patriotism." - Emma Goldman Speech in San Francisco, 1908 Photo: black and white photo with a halftone printing filter of Luigi Mangione surrounded by pigs on his perp walk

We keep us safe ‼️

"so much of what we already do is anarchistic and doesn't involve the state, the police, or the politicians. We look out for each other, we care for each other's kids, we go to the store for each other, we find ways to protect our communities" Ashanti Omowali Alston Black Anarchism (2003) Description of graphic: illustration of two badass-looking ravens sitting on top of a banner that says “we keep us safe,” one of the ravens has an anarchist “A” on it, and below them and the banner is the numbers “1312” with an arrow going through them (as if it was shot through with a bow)

A question for liberals

Source: @crimethinc.com From Democracy To Freedom (pg 14-15) crimethinc.com/books/from-d...
"How much do you buy into the idea that the democratic process should trump your own conscience and values? Let's try a quick exercise. Imagine yourself in a democratic republic with slaves-say, ancient Athens, or ancient Rome, or the United States of America until the end of 1865. Would you obey the law and treat people as property while endeavoring to change the laws, knowing full well that whole generations might live and die in chains in the meantime? Or would you act according to your conscience in defiance of the law, like Harriet Tubman and John Brown? If you would follow in the footsteps of Harriet Tubman, then you, too, believe that there is something more important than the rule of law. This is a problem for anyone who wants to make conformity with the law or with the will of the majority into the final arbiter of legitimacy."

What even is “debt”?

Source: David Graeber, Debt: The First 5,000 Years theanarchistlibrary.org/library/davi...
Actually, the remarkable thing about the statement "one has to pay one's debts" is that even according to standard economic theory, it isn't true. A lender is supposed to accept a certain degree of risk. Say I were to walk into the nearest branch of the Royal Bank of Scotland and say 'You know, I just got a really great tip on the horses. Think you could lend me a couple million quid?' Obviously they'd just laugh at me. But that's just because they know if my horse didn't come in, there'd be no way for them to get the money back. But, imagine there was some law that said they were guaranteed to get their money back no matter what happens, even if that meant, I don't know, selling my daughter into slavery or harvesting my organs or something. Well, in that case, why not? Basically, that's the situation the IMF created on a global level - which is how you could have all those banks willing to fork over billions of dollars to a bunch of obvious crooks in the first place. Debt: The First 5,000 Years (pg 3) David Graeber If history shows anything, it is that there's no better way to justify relations founded on violence, to make such relations seem moral, than by reframing them in the language of debt - above all, because it immediately makes it seem that it's the victim who's doing something wrong. Matiosi understand this. So do the commanders of conquering armies. For thousands of years, violent men have been able to tell their victims that those victims owe them something. If nothing else, they "owe them their lives" (a telling phrase) because they haven't been killed. What is the difference between a gangster pulling out a gun and demanding you give him a thousand dollars of "protection money," and that same gangster pulling out a gun and demanding you provide him with a thousand-dollar "loan"? In most ways, obviously, nothing. But in certain ways there is a difference. As in the case of the U.S. debt to Korea or Japan, were the balance of power at any point to shift, were America to lose its military supremacy, were the gangster to lose his henchmen, that "loan" might start being treated very differently. It might become a genuine liability. But the crucial element would still seem to be the gun. Debt: The First 5,000 Years (pg 5,7) David Graeber

What’s the point of government?

Source: Emma Goldman - Anarchism: What It Really Stands For www.marxists.org/reference/ar...
'''All government in essence," says Emerson, 'is tyranny.' It matters not whether it is government by divine right or majority rule. In every instance its aim is the absolute subordination of the individual. True social harmony grows naturally out of solidarity of interests. In a society where those who always work never have anything, while those who never work enjoy everything, solidarity of interests is non-existent; hence social harmony is but a myth. The only way organized authority meets this grave situation is by extending still greater privileges to those who have already monopolized the earth, and by still further enslaving the disinherited masses. Thus the entire arsenal of government-laws, police, soldiers, the courts, legislatures, prisons,-is strenuously engaged in "harmonizing" the most antagonistic elements in society. The most absurd apology for authority and law is that they serve to diminish crime. Aside from the fact that the State is itself the greatest criminal, breaking every written and natural law, stealing in the form of taxes, killing in the form of war and capital punishment, it has come to an absolute standstill in coping with crime. It has failed utterly to destroy or even minimize the horrible scourge of its own creation." Anarchism: What It Really Stands For (1910) Emma Goldman

What is anarchism?

Source: Emma Goldman - Anarchism: What It Really Stands For www.marxists.org/reference/ar...
"Destruction and violence! How is the ordinary man to know that the most violent element in society is ignorance; that its power of destruction is the very thing Anarchism is combating? ANARCHISM:-The philosophy of a new social order based on liberty unrestricted by man-made law; the theory that all forms of government rest on violence, and are therefore wrong and harmful, as well as unnecessary• Anarchism, then, really stands for the liberation of the human mind from the dominion of religion; the liberation of the human body from the dominion of property; liberation from the shackles and restraint of government. Anarchism stands for a social order based on the free grouping of individuals for the purpose of producing real social wealth; an order that will guarantee to every human being free access to the earth and full enjoyment of the necessities of life, according to individual desires, tastes, and inclinations.
