This is the IoT we need https://toot.lmorchard.com/media/HLlr2VMSC7DN2D1css4

remember, the results of the science march are inconclusive -- we need to conduct many more marches to study their effects, and for a proper double blind, everyone needs to be in black bloc

Since there seems to be some confusion about central concepts of anarchism:

Direct action is the collective exercising of (counter-)power without establishing or
appealing to representatives but instead directly attempting to influence whatever you want to influence.

Indirect action is trying to nag the twitter Admins to implement better harassment policies. Direct action is to build your own mastodon instance with blackjack and not commodified promiscuity or whatever else floats your goat.

capitalism is literally about to end human life on the planet and people are like This could really create a lot of jobs

It's good, it's team building, it'll strengthen our position, but I doubt it will sway the idjits. For that, we need to rise up and resist.

Hey, everytoots, I'd love a boost! I'm an artist and a teacher, which means that I go down to "artist" money when the semester ends in a couple of weeks.

I draw, I design roleplaying games (some of which are pretty well-known and weird games!), I write science fiction, I interview artists and review art!

@reignbough Fascist ideology is always inherently violent towards people other then them. So in my opinion punching a fascist is always in defense of yourself or others.

the fact that "social justice warrior" is considered by some a derogatory phrase is rather strange. justice refers to truth, reason, law, and secondarily, morality. all of which seems like things we would want applied to each other, right? even nazis expect social justice amongst one another.

we might as well start insulting our peer's interest in our well-being by calling them friends.

First the queers and furries build a space where they can be themselves.

Then the infosec folks find that it fits well with their values.

Then the communists flock to the first real alternative to capitalist monopoly on shortform burst communication.

Then the artists come to find new walls to paint and nobody to tell them no.

The intellectuals, the chroniclers, the priests and the prophets, singly and in droves.

Slowly, it builds. It's neat to build an oral history from inception. #mastodon

Are there any predominantly anarchist instances yet?

I saw a request to block whole instances because they speak a different language. I say why not get some translation api like google translate or bing so that other languages could be translated?
Let's connect people like the social network that we are and not separate them :D
I had a conversation with a japanese person earlier today using google translate and it was awesome haha

Many people are hopeful about the idea of universal basic income, and if there were a referendum on it I would probably vote yes. But it's not where we should be pinning our hopes.

It's perfectly possible for UBI to coexist with a total dystopia. As more jobs become automated, UBI could keep us in a state of suspended animation, neither living nor dead - but surviving in involuntary idleness and atrophy, competing fiercely for precarious work that lets us live properly for brief periods.
