Look, if we intend to make it through all the chaos that is coming, a lot of us need to start thinking in terms of liberation in a big way. We need transformative justice not imprisonment & slavery.

We can't be squeamish now. We can't clutch our pearls over "criminality" as defined by a State that exerts violent control over us all.

As far as I'm concerned, as long as our prisons are still standing, we haven't yet done enough to vanquish fascism. You have to burn the roots.

Dear liberals (if any of you are reading), please for the sake of us all, we need you to get over your fear of "criminals" as a class of person.

We need you to trust that we can build a better society that deals with violence, when it occurs, differently. For that matter, we already know that "crime" decreases when poverty decreases, so our "crime" problem is primarily a poverty problem!

J. R. DePriest :EA DATA. SF:

Instead of thinking of them as "criminals" think of them as "desperate people pushed to the brink by an uncaring system" and that should motivate you the right way.
Yes, there are actual people out there who want to hurt you. Most of them are already in positions of power or are seeking them out but you probably weren't thinking about that kind of crime even though you are far more likely to be a victim of it. You are probably already a victim of multiple crimes of that type. Go after them. They are the criminals stalking you and targeting you.

Yep. The segments of society who feel the most excluded, will inevitably feel less bound by the "social contract" (because it was already torn up for them!) and the laws of society. That should be obvious, but the NIMBYs' first instinct is always harsher policing and increased gentrification to shield them from the hordes at the gates.

Preventing such stratification is one important reason there are no private schools in Finland.

Philly. A city of trash (and the sanitation workers are on strike), a city of Democrats (but I repeat myself), and a city of the stupid. Well, anything technical is looked down upon. Now, the only thing I don't like about remotely-driven cars is the safety factor. Sometimes these cars do not drive as they are supposed to, actually leading to death of the occupant(s) of the car. But, I would not trash someone else's car, not even literally. In Philly they will though..

Now in College, #LudditeTeens Still Don’t Want Your Likes

Three years after starting a club meant to fight #SocialMedia’s grip on young people, many original members are holding firm and gaining new converts.

By Alex Vadukul
Jan. 30, 2025

"Biruk Watling, a college sophomore wearing a baggy coat and purple fingerless gloves, walked the chilly campus of Temple University in #Philadelphia on a recent afternoon to recruit new members to her club.
She taped a flier to a pole: '#JoinTheLudditeClub For #MeaningfulConnections.' Down the block, she posted another one: 'Do You Desire a Healthier Relationship With Technology, Especially Social Media? The Luddite Club Welcomes You and Your Ideas.'

"When a student approached, Ms. Watling dove into her pitch.

"'Our club promotes #ConsciousConsumption of #technology,' she said. 'We’re for #HumanConnection. I’m one of the first members of the original Luddite Club in #Brooklyn. Now I’m trying to start it in #Philly.

"She pulled out a #FlipPhone, mystifying her recruit.

"'We use these,' she said. 'This has been the most freeing experience of my life.'
If Ms. Watling had a missionary’s zeal, it was because she wasn’t just promoting a student club, but an approach to modern life that profoundly changed her two years ago, when she helped form the Luddite Club as a high school student in New York.

"But that was then, back when things were simpler, before she had embarked on the more independent life of a college student and found herself having to navigate QR codes, two-factor-identification logins, dating apps and other digital staples of campus life.

"The #LudditeClub was the subject of an article I wrote in 2022 — a story that, ironically, went viral. It told of how a group of teenage tech skeptics from Edward R. Murrow High School in Brooklyn and a few other schools in the city gathered on weekends in Prospect Park to enjoy some time together away from the machine.

"They #sketched and #painted side by side. They read quietly, favoring works by #Dostoyevsky, #Kerouac and #Vonnegut. They sat on logs and groused about how #TikTok was dumbing down their generation. Their flip phones were decorated with stickers and nail polish.

"Readers inspired by their message responded in hundreds of emails and comments. Reporters from Germany, Brazil, Japan and elsewhere flooded my inbox, asking me how to reach these students who were so hard to track down online. Snarky Reddit threads and think pieces sprouted. #RalphNader endorsed the club in an opinion essay, writing: 'This is a rebellion that needs support and diffusion.'"

"It’s really important for a kid to be left alone"- When #TaikaWaititi made his feelings clear about the role of tech in children's lives

By Sourav Chakraborty
Modified May 03, 2025 04:54 GMT

" 'Exactly, now they’ve all got iPads and it’s done for them! I think it’s really important for a kid to be left alone and left to figure it out for themselves how to pass the time. As a kid, I spent so much time bored and coming up with ideas of how to do things, so I’d write stories or I’d draw pictures or invent worlds through drawing or just in my head, just thinking about things. I think that a lot of my creativity has really come from being bored.' " [SO TRUE!!!]

So this meat tastes good, but I called $$$$$ to see how their meat was treated before the animal was killed packaged and sent here. An extremely contradictory and dodgy phone call. First I was told the meat was "natural," so that sounds ok, the lady told me the animals were treated respectably, and they weren't given pesticides.

Do these bluecry douchebags have nothing better to do than harrass a butcher shop?

If your a fucking vegan don't go to the butcher shop!

@Arthur_500 Just a small factoid, the vegamites keep telling us red meat is bad for our health. The nation with the highest red meat consumption per capita is Japan. The nation with the longest life expectancy is Japan. You can buy this crap and eat Bill Gates artificial meat if you like, I'll pass.

I started learning about nutrition (against my will) when my mother got me into a college course while in 7th grade.

Over the years I learned 'everything.' Something didn't make sense.

Why were English sailors suffering from scurvy? Eskimos weren't. How could Eskimos have healthy lives with so much fat in their diet?

In the 1970's nutrition science was taken over by the high carb crowd.

Health effects are obvious.

Eat meat. Eat fish.

Chemistry is not nutrition

Today is 30 days that the US military has occupied Los Angeles.

The fiscal hawks never for a moment think of the absurd amount of money being spent to terrorize civilians, children, harass families—all to satisfy the ego of an aspiring fascist. This is not freedom. This is tyranny. And unsurprisingly the NRA is nowhere to be found because they were never actually about anti-tyranny, they were always about pro white supremacy.

As a follow up to Israel attacking Iran, the Islamic republic regime (ruling Iran) is being horrific to Afghan refugees/immigrants. Afghans are becoming scapegoats and blamed for spying for Israel. The most vulnerable people get most fucked over - always.

“In a sane world, the Israeli government’s slaughter of nearly 80 helpless Palestinians in a single day using American weapons would be major news and members of Congress would treat Benjamin Netanyahu like Hannibal Lecter. Instead, Israel’s daily killing machine is largely ignored while Netanyahu, a wanted war criminal, walks freely on Capitol Hill.”

In the last three days, two ships, the Greek ship "Tutor" and Ukrainian ship "Verbena," are at risk of sinking due to Yemeni Armed Forces operations targeting them in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.

"Tutor" was, for the first time, directly hit by a naval drone that barreled into the engine room. Its crew abandoned ship two days later. "Verbena," on the other hand, was targeted with missiles, and its crew abandoned the ship today two days after it was targeted. These operations came in response to the ships' companies violating the Yemeni ban on ports of occupied #Palestine.

The Zionist Interior Minister, Moshe Arbel, has banned anti-Zionist Rabbi Yisroel [Dovid] Weiss from entering occupied Palestine just hours after a meeting between the rabbi and Iran’s Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi. During the meeting, Rabbi Weiss conveyed a message of solidarity with the people of Iran in light of recent Israeli military aggression against the country. He also expressed the stance of the Jewish opposition to Zionism and its crimes.

This move by the Israeli government reflects its growing intolerance toward dissenting voices, particularly those who publicly criticize its policies or engage with nations considered adversaries.

In response to the ban imposed upon him, Rabbi Weiss issued a powerful statement:

“Advocating for peace should not be a crime. However, in the Zionist entity, it clearly is—because Zionism thrives on war and conflict. Its very existence goes against the will of God. It depends on occupation, murder, and crimes.”

He continued, “I do not expect permission from the Zionists to enter Palestine. Thieves do not get to decide who enters stolen property. I have never visited the Zionist entity, nor do I plan to visit occupied Palestine as long as it remains under Zionist control.”

He added: “In the past, I visited Gaza for humanitarian reasons, entering through Rafah. I am prepared to visit a liberated Palestine in the future—with permission from its legitimate Palestinian government.”
