  • there are defintitely differences between rulers, but when in history did rulers ever rule in favour of all people they rule over?
    all the different needs and desires are just too much for a few huamns to comprehend in full.

    and that is only if a ruler hasnt already given up their morals in order to achieve that power in the first place, and if they arent forced to focus on not losing that power to someone else.

    a truely “good ruler” seems like an unachievable ideal to me










  • a common understanding of radical by self described radicals is “targeting the root of an issue” or the “wanting large systemic changes” that follows from that.

    for radical feminists this means recognizing patriarchal power structures as the root of most gender related opressions and wishing to overcome them. while we can critique their exact analysis, i think the idea that many opressive acts are symptoms of deeper systemic opressions maked a lot of sense.

    please don’t let opressors convince you that liberation in itself goes too far. a better world is possible and the struggle for it is righteous.

    i think in this sense memes like this might even be detrimental, because they set the bar so high, barely anyone will take a shot.

    you dont need to kill police or politicians, probably throwing your life away, to make a difference. just find whatever horizontal organisations are providing for needs and building dual power in your area and join them.
