@mloxton @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 You don't see any issues in "The elected" Being 100% comprised of people who make at least 7 figures? How is a group of only millionaires meant to represent the average person in the electorate.

@mloxton @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 how can you vote for someone who is representative of your group when every choice is a shitty apathetic neoliberal millionaire? Hard not to be apathetic when no "representatives" actually represent you. The system is built to create and foster these feelings. When a system is designed to create a feeling and situation, those who exhibit proof of what the system is creating are not to blame for showing that. It is hard to wrap our heads around that with how abhorrent the qualities this system promotes can be, but the majority of those showing those qualities the system promotes are victims of propaganda and systemic oppression.

@mloxton @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 So your solution to the system of violence in place, is to participate in and perpetuate the system of violence....

@spoons @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 As the disabled trans anarchist who has been housing challenged for years, that I am, I'd much rather you go out and actually create dual power rather than continue voting for the people who are punching us to death. Punching anyone to death should immediately be a reason not to vote for someone. What the fuck is wrong with you for voting for people who are beating us to death? That's sociopathic

@spoons @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 From my angle, and my comrades I work with, we have less than a full lifetime to topple the bourgeois class to obtain a liveable world for those who come after us. In my case my children. The slow crawl of electoralism has been painful to witness. Climate change is shortening the time we have to act dramatically, worse than the most pessimistic prior prediction. Engaging in bourgeois politics beyond calling it out as the unrepresentative and oppressive system that it is allows the shitty people beating us up to stay in power. It isn't reducing harm. The less shitty person allows the shittier to stay in power. It is just perpetuating harm and allowing the cycle of hate and destruction and lives lost to continue.

@spoons @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom @Huntn00 I apologize for the ad hominen attack. You are correct, that was unnecessary.

@Huntn00 @spoons @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom Anarchy does not equal violence. That is a product of propaganda. The fact that most anarchist societies were built to combat violence of fascist and authoritarian power, which necessitated violence, does not make anarchism violent

@Huntn00 @spoons @mloxton @Radical_EgoCom this is based on old defunct Darwinist ideas based on observation of animals in captivity. The burden of proof is toward the law of mutual aid, and the idea that humans and many other species have existed so long because they have cooperated rather than competed for resources for most of our species history.

@mloxton @Huntn00 @spoons @Radical_EgoCom you sound like a Brit justifying manifest destiny because everyone other than a brit is a barbarian. You aren't exceptionally enlightened for thinking people are better off working together. Humanity would have destroyed itself hundreds of times over in its 100s of thousands of years of existence if all we did was rape pillage and destroy. Stop applying your whiteness to the rest of humanity. Not every civilization has made its way by subjugating others.
