  • Due to a different circumstances, i was forced to have an interest in politics. I was center right in europe. I like evidence backed claims. Efficient policies, and damn the left is very good at that. I needed to kill a lot of internalized concept because they were factually wrong. ( war on drugs, VIH, abortion, ecology, tax break, housing, privacy, etc)

    I then became very anti-capitalist and communism became quite an attractive solution. The more strict the better ! REVENGE!!!

    However,

    • the communist party in my country is well know for having trouble to recognize Ouïghours slavery and … what the fuck the name of the amount of suffering is imposed onto them is called.

    • It is a very hierarchical structure, there is no pluralism, no nuance, no differents proposition to a problem, no diversity -> hey that look a lot like stalin or a sect

    • We will work better and faster and stronger when we will own the means of production, we will work more when we rise to power as we are proud. What is the meaning of work ? why work ? who want to work ? (andrewsim “who want to be working class”)

    • Still fixed hierarchy, still stupidly bureaucratic.Still cops, still prison, still kinda monarchic work structure, still not singing the full original international song (they left out some verse that are very anti-war and anti-autority)

    • Tend to sweep gender identity, neurodivergence, religions, beliefs, critical thinking under the rug for “cohesion”. Use fear and proudness to so. One solution fit all and everything. I understand the appeal. Everything is simple and homogeneous,you are part of the group, the goal is clear, just follow the leader kind of thing. -> hey wtf isn’t this like the religious sect maga ? or far right activists? yeah obviously they are going in different direction but the sect method looked the same.

    Well, i would say that i am quite confused but i got the spirit of anarchism. And i feel like that is anarchy itself. Critical of other theories and critical of itself. Constant change. Against the purity of thought, action, person, etc. The fact the there is not a single form of anarchy, there is spice and color. Anarcho-feminism ? anarcho-ecologist ? anarcho-comunisme ? anarcho-socialism ? crypto-anarchism (as in cryptography not the grift thing) a bit of all ? yes! and even in one of thoses “genre” you will find wild and various different form of them. I love it! Heck, i even find that in belgium and france it existed an anarchist(noel goddin) that launched patisserie in the face of politicians as a mean to protest and ruin their image of seriousness. It inspired other. He died recently but looking back onto their work they targeted politicians that are now in jail(kinda), industrials that are targeted with corruption charges, tv presentators thar are sex offender. So it is a haha moment then make you think.

    If someone disagree with me and is passionate enough to prove me wrong, please guide me to your vision so i can understood it better <3 I am not necessarily right, you are not necessarily wrong. I may oversimplified a fabulous, wild and free vision of well… everything.

    TLDR, communist party(or other authoritarian leftist) in my country exhibit in their structures, ideals and methods the very things that i despise in the current society, totalitarian regime or sects(religious or otherwise) (with a myriad of nuances but this is a TLDR)


  • Yeah!

    Assuming the system is secure ! It never is. Data breach happen. More so when your goal is to increase profit and reduce workforce (cost). Imagine China or Russia or anyone else having acces to that killchain for a fraction of second. It is automated, missile launched.

    Thoses human -were here for a reason. It is a human that prevented a nuclear holocaust when russian falsely detected an attack during cold war.

    What about data poisoning, error, mistake ?

    Why are we as a species doing this ? who want that ? why ? With a fraction of the cost, you can feed, educate, house homeless peoples. Now you can have artists, nurse, teachers, scientist.

    Fuck.

    But i am hopefull, i need to ! I post that on a federated open source and free social media made by human for human. It help me a lot. Diverse and united.




  • It is a question that i love to ask. Thanks for your answer.

    Since i challenged myself to use as must as open-source software as possible, i am mad at the quality and potential that is found in foss versus proprietary. I hate ads, subscription, login in so my info can be sold, so that i can be called 4/5 time a day to sell me stupid crap.

    I wanted to see what kind of software was in use in Minneapolis during the resistance against ice, the only in-depth account of such niche info i could access was crimetheinc (anarchist website)

    I looked around, they have a podcast called the ex-worker. Quite funny to listen to that while commuting to work.

    At work (IT), i could literally increase the productivty of at least myself by a 100 in a secure way if able to. (ansible, key based security, etc) But no, workload keep increasing, no ability to organise my work, forced to do the stupidest stuff ever cause, because. And all the time, i am responsible if anything happen. Both expert and inexperienced grunt. Verbal,moral abuse as well. Yeah burnout before 30. 100% work related, certified fresh.

    Funny enough, i became the ex-worker.

    The thing that helped me was of course a supportive as hell significant other, doctor, psychologist and friends that lived,live or will be in the same situation as me… Lots of them, it is quite scary, across lots of fields.

    And “stories of monk and robot” of becky chamber. While not explicitly anarchist, it does fit the bill very well and describe a futur worth fighting for.

    I already was snooping around leftist media. That helped with though like “i abandoned my colleagues”, “i do not want to be a charge of society”,“i am a manly man, i will return asap” That serves no purpose except being more exploitable and slow down recovery.

    OFC stuff like climate change, surveillance state, books, violence, every time a politician is in trouble the tv talk about immigration or burkini saying dumber and dumber shit, feminism, sexism, homophobia, mazan trials, activist répression, billionaires.

    Nothing is “normal” or “always has been the case”. Be critical of the movement and each other, reflect and growth together. All power to all the people.



  • Not only Swiss but other countries as well (at least in europe)

    To dispose of outdated ammunition (this range from bullets to heavy bombs not including nuclear one) You have to make them explode. After that, they are safe to handle.

    However, making them explode is expensive. So why not dump them into a body of water (salted or not) that will absorb potential explosion and after some time, render the ammunition safe.

    It is from a long standing tradition of “cost to much to dispose? dump in the nature, futur ourself will deal with it. Fuck that guy btw”





  • i didn’t knew it was a thing. Did you have any thingamajig (book, fiction, youtube video) to help me appreciate this ? It is a work of fiction but becky chambers “a long way to a small angry planet” feature in an interesting way such a community (more as background caracteres i fear)

    Closest i can think of is some open-source bio hacking like the “though emporium”, https://fourthievesvinegar.org/, open insulin project.

    Sadly, bio hacking and transhumanism, when translated in reality amount to cyberpunk. A way for the wealthy to stay healthy longer and in better health while workers are under-equipped, provided the least amount of health benefits they could, yada yada yada

    A lots of stupid startup doing strange stuff in places especially designed with loose regulation as well. All trying to find a new way to exploit humans for profit. I read some stuff about young blood injection for rich people to look younger. They all use terms like biohacking and transhumanism for marketing, no science here.

    If you have materials, share them. If it is a shower though, it made me think ;) Have a nice whatever and stay very safe if you decide to try anything. There is no plan B if your own body reject whatever you tried.

    Oh i remember a project where can 3d print an additional thumb prothese (a science experiments to see if you can adapt to new members) and apparently, you can ! yeah ! science ! What does it have to do with anarchy ? i don’t know but maybe you do ;)


  • easy, anarchy is no unjust hierarchy. So to convert X to anarchy, you remove the subordination principe. If the task need a boss, make it temporary and rotate often. Share knowledge and ideas. Make sure everybody is having the best time it could under the conditions we are in.

    Sure you can be a filthy filthy radical and open source the machines, vulgarise the jobs and how to use the tools. Decorate the wall with slogans like “justice for all”. Bring diverse peoples to the fab and see solutions to problems you never accounted for emerge. See peoples from around the world challenges themselves to use less and less chemicals and/or reuse them.

    If you want to check, open source can cover hardware. A famous one is Prusa (3d printer).
