So you’re literally just window shopping for somewhere you don’t have to treat people with respect and decency. No wonder you’re being identified as a chud.

No tolerance for the intolerant.

It’s like his politics start and end through/with violence.

I wish I could remember - there was an Italian word for it. Oh well.

I hope you touched wood after saying that.

Well that checks out.

And it’s Australian - which means all it’s staff are obligated by law to place backdoors into their software for essentially whoever asks provided they flash a badge. If you don’t, it’s a one way trip to gaol.

If you trigger a canary in the coalmine somewhere, gaol.

Speaking as one - don’t trust Australians with your security. Ever.

That’s the neat thing, he doesn’t!

Milei is a Thatcherite.

I anticipate things are going to get ugly in Argentina… horrible direction to see.

If this weren’t a global moment of systemic realization - sure. From a cynical, “always bet on the null” perspective, sure, but I can’t agree it boils down to drama.

Something deeper is happening. I’m seeing people who I know for certain wouldn’t know the context of/around settler-colonialism start to synthesize that information into their own national and local contexts.

Something is happening. People are learning - I don’t think the genie is going back in the bottle. Thank god. All that’s left is for people to learn how simple individual praxis can be to start doing and suddenly we’re looking at something very, very wide.

The planet =/= nature

Inefficient. Utilise your time to provide maximum benefit for the biosphere before you return to it. Nature is not a solo juggernaut - it needs us to help to our part.

Wall cracks.

Yes but also wise up - we’re not the same as Exxon Mobil or Rio Tinto. We individually need to make our changes, absolutely - but they won’t unless we force them to do so and they dwarf us in output to an inhuman degree.

Simply - we need to stop their machines in a very literal sense. They’ve already shown that dialogue and scientific reasoning is an utterly useless vehicle for change in the face of their organisations - so we need to start speaking in languages they understand. Remove their ability to function. Direct action is the answer to the question.

I’m more in the blockade a port/unmake a pipeline/put sand in the oil tanks kind of a mindset but go off

Dude. The world is being killed and the people killing it have names and addresses. This is not a untouchable force of nature causing our homes to flood and burn while the ecosystems that allow us to farm collapse.

You have agency. Get angry, channel it and get active.

Their centrist pearl clutching hasn’t done anything so far so why make yourself smaller to appease someone who won’t help anyway? Sorry - get real about the stakes or get aside.

Diversity of tactics. There’s no point in pissing on other people’s praxis when you have the capacity and space to organise your own.

Want harder action? Find a pipeline. Blockade a port.

Want to educate people about actions and how to get involved? Organise a street march and equip people with rhetoric to help turn the tide against fossil fuel astroturfing.

Just do something.

They are - which means they’re ahead.

Stop with the black pill nonsense. There’s plenty we can do. Get active, get amongst it, break unjust laws.

Lay down and rot somewhere else.

The price of Bahn Mi is about to go up

What a cool country!
