@davidho Almost. A lot of the places still look as if the only way to participate is by spending money and consume.

@fu I wasn't aware, and honestly...I don't care ;)

I am a heathen. I believe in the universe, in science, the fact that there are always unexplainable things between the cracks, and I believe in human hearts.

That's about it.

Has anyone considered the fact that the rapture has happened already, and we are what's left?

"A majority of people are for climate protection, still nothing gets done. Why?"

Newspapers ask the darnedest questions. Here's why..

1.) Climate action entails less consumption. FAR LESS consumption. Not consuming is deadly for capitalism.

They will sell you every bogus solution under the sun but all of these will make you keep consuming. This will lead to the extraction AND exploitation of resources and labour. The best capitalism will ever do is delay the collapse either temporarily or locally.
Capitalism CANNOT solve this issue.

And our capitalist overlords KNOW this.

That's why they chug either bullshit solutions or (culture) wars your way. It's a distraction.

So, first of all you finally have to get it into your head that saving the planet means toppling capitalism and subsequently means fighting fascists. These three things are linked. Details may vary. Sometimes it is murky but these three things make the world's ugliest threesome since I kissed both Fülber-twins on one evening in 5th grade.

2.) This necessary fight and transformation will and can come only at the price of your comfort zones. Replacing plastic straws at fast food restaurants is neat but that's not what's needed.

You cannot just be in favour of measures to save the planet, save humanity. You'll have to, on some level, fight for it.

People are angry because #GretaThunberg now pivoted to a more anticapitalist stance.

I am a bit baffled because she always had those undertones anyway, and she now finally arrived at the position you have to arrive at logically.

Capitalism is the main driver behind the #ClimateCrisis and it will not allow the solution.

Look, you have to fight fascism NOW. Oppose it everywhere in any way you can and see fit.

The longer you just sit on your arse the harder it will be.

You WILL have to fight them.

And it WLL get violent.

This is a truth.

It's a hard truth to accept; I grapple with it myself.

But defeatism now will only lead to the camps. Not for other people; it will be YOUR way to the camps.

Believe you me: it is that fucking simple, and it is that fucking true.

It's in the history books. Plain, true and simple.

The Nazis could have been stopped around the late 20s early 30s. Later on, resistance meant certain death.

You will not be able to switch sides or go "under cover". They have lists, and if you are - by whatever fate or whatever God - not on those lists, they will put you there if they need someone there. And fascism always needs someone on a list.

Fight them now! Fight them in whatever way you can.

You will have to fight!

@AnarchoNinaWrites The NSDAP even accepted queer people at first. Didn't end well for those once they were in power. They even had non-white people. Didn't end well for those too. They even adopted 'socialist' in the party name (a fact libertarians like to bring up when they think themselves clever). Did not end well for workers.

It is as you stated often enough. Fascism has no ideology, it is just about power.

@AnarchoNinaWrites If I can smell some "ideologically sketchy motherfuckers" from a mile off, I can't imagine what stink some people give off to folks who had their senses heightened by years of fending these arseholes off.

@AnarchoNinaWrites There just shouldn't be billionaires FULL STOP. And while we are at it, we could stop celebrity worship of any kind (even if said celebrity currently presents as "our team")...

Auch für meine deutschen Follower:

Es scheint als würden russische Trollfarmen jetzt auch verstärkt das Fediverse ins Visier nehmen.

Ich weiß, dass hier auf der Plattform gerne diskutiert wird, aber nutzt euren Verstand. Sobald ihr merkt, dass auf gar kein Argument eingegangen wird und weiter nur einseitig zwielichtige Positionen vertreten werden.

Disengage, block & report.

@AnarchoNinaWrites Even if you were wrong, you'd still have the right to say it. *shrug*

@AnarchoNinaWrites

For you: Peertube is, as I understand it, the YouTube of the fediverse.

@AnarchoNinaWrites

The year is 2052: My family is gathered around a fancy hospital bed everyone knows I cannot afford. All my loved ones' smiles freeze into abject horror when I say that I want to hear that sweet melody one last time...

🎶 you an' me, baby, ain't nuthin'...

@AnarchoNinaWrites The good ally thing: How hard is it for white, straight dudes to TRY and BE good allies while acknowledging we fail often enough WITHOUT calling yourself a 'good ally'.

I am a dude. I will try to be better today than I was yesterday. It's as easy as that. Don't call yourself anything.

Good ally, good grief. If you have to call yourself that, you probably already failed....

Modern work life can sometimes be summarised by these 'articles' about modern management.

Yeah. Here's a tip 'journalists' ... the WTF feeling every normal human being has towards this problem solving approach is why so many people quit their job. I cannot see myself ever becoming so intellectually lazy or simply evil to write a text where I correctly identify the culprit and then give the victim tips to solve this crap.

Newsflash: Beige resident funny German in transfer talks with @oliphant.social ...

@AnarchoNinaWrites Fair. I'll train an orca.

@AnarchoNinaWrites

*looks at the sun dancing on the waves*

And I swear...I tells ya. The revolution will be glorious, can't you see?

A smile.

A shadow. A weird chomping sound.
An orca looking at me apologetically.

The sun dancing on the waves.

It's okay, Willy. It's how they wanted to go.

@AnarchoNinaWrites I know a garden shed with a perfect view of the sun set.

@AnarchoNinaWrites @oliphant

Shit. This is so horribly verbose to me. So, the author is somehow against gatekeepers and purists while being a gatekeeper and purist.

Like, I don't understand the intention of this at all. It's so unfocused.
