  • Yep that’s true, I’m getting these delightful batches of mentions about how liberal nonviolent strategies are going to stick it to the fascists, which make indistinguishable pleas for me to acknowledge the effectiveness of political irrelevance. Only boycotting is a step above stripping down in front of the Nazis and making a fool of yourself. If you don’t see how these events are part of the same ideological bent you should probably check on what the people involved with them are saying. What is needed are strikes, at bare minimum. If you are wondering “well how am I supposed to strike?” you’ve got a question that will build a whole roadmap ahead of you.



  • Are you surprised we haven’t focused to that when we are stuck on debating the effectiveness of actions you know don’t work? They are purely symbolic and done chiefly to make people feel better about their powerlessness. That itself is harmful, because you are lying to people about a miracle cure for fascism called doing fuck all.

    I already answered the question broadly of what would even make strategic inaction like boycotting capable of pressuring organizations or political figures, it’s an organization that has real leverage politically, not an NGO that plaintively asks for better institutions or malicious ones to reform themselves. An organization that can apply pressure with the legitimacy of those demands. Demands alone are not impressive, and reminding everyone over and over what a good boy who follows the rules of protests and nonviolence and boycotting you are reinforces you have zero intention of being a threat to the people euthanizing your homeless population! You think that’s going to manifest in delinking from the USA? We both get all of our goods from China one way or another. What the US is ripping you apart with now particularly, like the UK, is destroying public services, bringing in pvt equity and our infamous insurance companies. You cannot boycott your hiking rent and Perestroika. Think bigger.





  • You’d be surprised how valuable these technologies can be when they’re not only being developed to create new financialized services to overcharge people for. Manufacturing and shipping has huge capital and logistic buffers created by information gaps, production shortfalls, fraud, etcetera, and cryptographic ledgers are excellent for ensuring accurate production and inventory information is relayed to clients in realtime. What’s more, it has the potential to mediate international transactions without relying on Swift or global banking institutions that are an extension of US authority.

    Notice how nothing I said was about fucking NFTs. The western financial system completely lost the plot doing super cocaine and became convinced they could just ask the rest of the world to stay slaves forever. They don’t even care about its potential! They want TrumpCoin.




  • XMPP, but also Delta Chat! The Webxdc apps for Delta work in XMPP client Cheogram despite there being no cross-compatibility between the networks. It can access ordinary email servers so long as they were not set up maliciously (Apple, M$, Gmail, etc). It can do a couple things XMPP cannot, but it’s not suitable for anyone outside close friends and family. I basically only use it for email, automation, and other personal matters. XMPP is for general use and can replace Discord. The Movim project looks very cool they have a community here also join their XMPP chat. Cheogram services can connect to the regular phone network.
