In Nazi Germany, hiding a Jewish person was a crime punishable by death. But it was not violence, chaos, or destruction. Here in the US, there are many places where feeding a hungry person is against the law, and people have been arrested for it. Giving alms to a homeless person can get you put into prison. These are crimes, as declared by law.

Just because something is supposedly a crime, doesn’t mean it doesn’t make the world a better place.

You seem to be under the impression that I'm not already doing things that the American authority would throw me in prison for. You should never just assume things, stranger, especially since we live in a nation where helping people the government deems undesirables is punished by the jack-booted thugs of the authority.

Every kind act is an act of rebellion. So become ungovernable.

It does have a grand vision of a world without masters. Hence the slogan, “no gods, no masters”.

Human beings with a master are slaves. I hope one day, you will decide you don’t wish to be a slave anymore.

You willingly and knowingly let a fascist grab power, yet you accuse those opposing them of being Nazi collaborators? What does that make you then? A full Nazi?

no, you shitwit, I voted for Kamala. why the fuck are you even making that assumption, you twatwaffle?

P.S.: I did not read further than the quoted bit, and I don't really care to either, because it was probably fucking nonsense and I am busy right now dunking on libs for being dipshits.

I couldn't find the link for this video, which is no wonder, because it's several years old and reddit has since deleted every version of it I could find hosted there. surprise, surprise.

I did manage to find the other angle though, but you'll have to make due with a facebook link, because that's all I got.

notice the cop that gets knocked down the second time is the same as the first.

But I think it's confusing to use an existing word with a meaning to mean something totally different.

it doesn't mean something different. anarchy is from the greek words meaning the absence of a ruler.

While the Greek words anarchos and anarchia are often taken to mean “having no government” or “being without a government,” as can be seen, the strict, original meaning of anarchism was not simply “no government.” “An-archy” means “without a ruler,” or more generally, “without authority,” and it is in this sense that anarchists have continually used the word. For example, we find Kropotkin arguing that anarchism “attacks not only capital, but also the main sources of the power of capitalism: law, authority, and the State.” [Op. Cit., p. 150] For anarchists, anarchy means “not necessarily absence of order, as is generally supposed, but an absence of rule.” [Benjamin Tucker, Instead of a Book, p. 13]


But I'm similarly unconvinced because there's noting to indicate that at the inter-state level it would be anything but fantasy.

who is it that you think should rule the entire world? who do you think should control all countries? do you believe one country should get to dictate the actions of all others, such as perhaps russia? maybe the united states? because if you believe there should not be a world authority that can act with impunity on the world stage, and decide what is genocide or what is acceptable levels of death or starvation, or who gets what resources in africa, then you're engaging in that fantasy with us, aren't you?

they are, look up the video. this is from Chile in 2019 and there are multiple angles of this takedown.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

no, in the video of the protest, we see him punching downwards and not swinging. this happened in Chile in 2019. this is not the only angle of the fight either, there's a video that's close up within maybe 20 ft on the other side.

he immediately got up and the protestor did basically the same thing to him again before running off as more cops arrived.

be advised that if you're doing dev work on Bazzite, you might have to make use of a distrobox depending on the software you use. for example, VSCode is available as a Flatpak, but if you want to use other things with it like NPM, you'll have much less headache trying to get it to work by installing it in a distrobox.

That reference is old enough that Seinfeld himself wouldn't date it.

I think the midset of "Everyone's opinion is valid and should be heard" is more of a neo-liberal perspective

well, that's not what I said, so yeah, I agree with you.
