  • I believe we can agree that “people should be fairly/ethically rewarded for their labor” is a reasonable ideal

    I dont really see why this is a particularly goof ideal to build around the systems we use to express and fulfill our needs. Maybe you could explain why you would prefer to use that instead of ideals like "From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs" or "well-being for all".

    I think an interesting read might be the section I.3 What could the economic structure of anarchy look like? of An Anarchist FAQ.

    What I would be interested in is an more insurrectionist / individualist / egoist answer to this question, because their perspective is often not mentioned in these kinds of questions.

  • Thanks, this is what I was looking for. Kinda how the expectations and "rules" around this are.

  • Imo there is a reasonable difference between copying a product of a huge (and exploitative) company and taking the effort of hobbyist and just sharing it in ways they didnt intend.

    For me* its the same when I shoplift, I dont steal from the local self-owned shop, I steal from the big multibillion company.

  • PTB I think this is a justified report.

    Jewish people from all over the world have been and are currently actively organizing and fighting against zionism, occupation and genocide. They have nothing to ashamed of. Instead they are important in the struggle for liberation not just in Palestine but also worldwide.

  • Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ @lemmy.dbzer0.com

    Is making hard to get files more accessible always good practice (example in post body)?

  • PTB because rule 1 - "Be civil" is super inappropriate when it comes to an ongoing genocide and removing someone calling out propaganda in an impolite way is in a way taking sides


    more on a personal note: Are you really sure you are helping Palestinians with this kind of online posting? Like I think you could actually make reasonable arguments instead of making snarky comments. Also every comment under Israeli propaganda increases the reach of said propaganda, especially on Lemmy where comments increase the "Active" metric by a lot and push otherwise ignored posts into the feed of thousands

  • 100k AFTER all your expenses.

  • I feel like many great anarchist communicators are (semi) anonymous and publish texts as / via collectives. thinking about individuals that publish their work, Peter Gelderloos comes to mind

    If you are more flexible regarding the medium - so not just straight up texts - it gets easier to find anarchists with extensive libraries of their opinions, such as YouTubers like Andrewism, Anark and Zoe Baker or writers such as Margaret Killjoy

    I have to admit that my examples are not that similar, but I know the person running https://paradox-a.de/ is pretty academic, but most of their texts are german.

  • If only one man owns everything, then expropriation would be really fast in theory

  • I heard of it. Sounded really scary and awful. I do not get your point tho

  • Folks in Minneapolis burned down a whole police station after throwing bricks. This is of course an extreme example but it should show the possibilities of how it could go instead.

  • First, look up Martin Luther King. He called for non-violence in a situation that was much worse, against a tougher foe.

    So? I dont agree with him.

    Second, who made you leader? Who decided that you had the right to instigate violence?

    I am not presenting as an authority figure or as anyones boss. I am fine if you dont want to join. I think thats totally valid. But I can "instigate violence" because its covered by the instance rules, because its not looked down upon in this community and because from my anarchist perspective it seems to be one of the most effective actions you can currently take.

    Because you keep ignoring my basic point, that it's not going to be the one who throws the brick who will get caught.

    Its just a statement without any reasoning, proof or context. As I have shown multiple times in our discussion, I value different viewpoints especially if they get brought forward kn good faith. But valuing them doesnt mean I have to agree with everything you say.

  • Things I mostly found on reddit:

    Yes. But there's not much publicly available. Just a food not bombs and I think a social space in Guangzhou. I think there is likely a larger underground of squats that are not really easy to find out about.

    The Wuhan punks had a small bookstore/gathering space that was shut down in 2016 due to non-payment of rent.

  • You are acting as if police brutality and police murder are the fault of those that throw the first stone. Its not. Its not like peacefulness or being passive makes you safe from police brutality, because you have very limited control how the police as a whole and how individual cops actually act.

    Also, the people who were showing up to start trouble were usually police agents or locals who thought that it would be fun to throw a rock at a cop. The IWW people knew more about police violence then you ever will; they were around before Miranda Rights and body cams. If they thought having a team there was a good idea, you should learn from them.

    That mght be true in the time you are talking about, but currently rioting is a thing many people do and its shown to be effective. The George Floyd uprising was as big and powerful because of the rioting and not despite it.

    This does not mean disregarding past experiences, but (to me seemingly) more recent experiences show the power of riots and the ways anarchists can show solidarity, especially in the context of the so call USA.


    I also think calling for peacefulness when friends, families, colleges, neighbors, comrades get disappeared is just not what is needed in these circumstances and its also not stopping any of this.

  • So the IWW had their own police? Not a good look

    showed up at a protest looking to start trouble.

    Isnt that the point? Creating trouble to stop the deportations? Of course there should be places and space for actions where people can participate that dont want to riot / be near a riot.

  • I dont think shaming people for using corporate social media will make them more likely to drop corporate social media. But even if it works, do we really want people to use Lemmy because we shamed them and not because the actually really good reasons to use it?

  • Stop discrediting ways of protesting you dont like by making sruff up. The outside agitator trope is a counterinsurgency tactic to sow distrust in resistance movements.

    This already happened with the George Floyd protests and in the end no proof was ever shown for this being a relevant factor in any meaningful way.
