Mixter Kit O'Connell<p>“Friends, we indicated that if we had the House, the Senate and the presidency, there were certain things that we would do.

Rachel E. S. Loesche<p>John Perkins, author of Confessions of an Economic Hitman, has a little contact form on his website mediated by goddamn Squarespace. But I still used it to write to him to ask, "Don't you think the obvious thing is for the left to unite internationally and leverage mass labor and economic power to insist on the institution of a real Global Surplus Recycling Mechanism at the IMF and World Bank now, like John Keynes originally proposed at Bretton Woods?"</p><p>Quickly, and apparently without much thought, he replied that the IMF and World Bank were dictatorial and not worth our focus in confronting the rise of fascism. BUT THE POINT IS THAT WE USE THE ONLY LEVERAGE WE HAVE AS THE POOR AND WORKING CLASS MASSES TO DEMAND A TRANSFORMATION OF THE TOP DICTATORSHIP SO THAT THERE IS NO LONGER A TOP DICTATORSHIP, AND INSTEAD, A FUNCTIONAL, TRANSPARENT, PUBLIC UNION OF EQUALS THANKS TO FAIR, EGALITARIAN SURPLUS REGULTION, WHICH HAS STILL NOT BEEN TRIED.</p><p>DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND ME?!</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/InternationalMonetaryPolicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InternationalMonetaryPolicy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/geopolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geopolitics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/peace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>peace</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FuckWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckWar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/justice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>justice</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EconomicJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EconomicJustice</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/anarchism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>anarchism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>activism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SystemsThinking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SystemsThinking</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCrisis</span></a></p>

MutinyCrinshaw :negate:<p>"Organizing locally with 2-6 friends is actually an ideal tactic for things like banner drops, flash-protests, &amp; other kinds of activities (gardening, mutual aid, de-paving, &amp;c.). </p><p>"Here are five reasons why small-group tactics can be more worthwhile:</p><p>1. You've known &amp; can trust your friends already. There's none of the risk associated with recruiting strangers.</p><p>2. People need to see these demonstrations in their daily lives, no matter how small. You might think, "Sure, me &amp; two friends can do a banner drop, but so what, big deal?" Actually seeing a banner in person is much more effective than seeing a protest on-screen from somewhere else because you can de-spell the meme that "nothing like that could happen here." You *make* it "happen here."</p><p>3. You can begin to build a local reputation, which will serve you more in times of trouble than all the internet friends in the world. Your friends are your true underground network. The internet can augment that, but any insurgent will tell you that local support makes outside occupation costly at best, really all but impossible.</p><p>4. You can put pressure on the small, local supporters of the right-wing, like problematic businesses right there in your own town or neighborhood. Amazon sucks but unless you rub elbows in certain social circles, Bezos is an abstract target. However, *you* can make the Nazis at Johnny's Bar afraid to come out for a drink. All resources are ultimately localized resources.</p><p>5. You &amp; your friends have a creativity &amp; flexibility that cannot be found in online echo-chambers.

Sir Rochard 'Dock' Bunson<p>Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now:</p><p>23. Regardless of whether you’re a parent, go to a school board meeting. During public comment, reiterate how much you value:</p><p> A. The district remaining a safe and welcoming place for queer and trans students.</p><p> B. The school district not cooperating with ICE.</p><p> C. The school continuing to teach accurate representations of U.S. history, multiculturalism and respect for all students’ backgrounds.</p><p>24. When you wonder “what right do I have to go to a school board if my topic isn’t on the agenda” remember those Moms For Liberty who caused all of that school board chaos a few summers ago… what right did they have to do so? And yet, there they were, creating a political moment out of nothing. You’re showing up for something real, something that matters.

MutinyCrinshaw :negate:<p>"One of the problems associated with this 'unity fetish' is the idea that only 'big movements' or organizations are worthwhile.</p><p>"People think movements fail because not enough people support one party, one org, one demand. After 20 years of activism, I think this perspective is mistaken.</p><p>"Here are five reasons why joining or waiting for others to choose a large group is a tactical mistake for activists:</p><p>1. Small groups can have huge effects. Light &amp; nimble, it is easier for them to be in the right place at the right time.</p><p>2. Small groups can federate with each other or larger ones for events. It's easier to get many small groups into conversation than it is to try to rebuild a large group from scratch every time something new comes up.</p><p>3. Big groups have to start somewhere. Even if a big group might be useful, they do not appear overnight. Most of them need a core group anyway.</p><p>4. It is demoralizing to think that, because there's no group right in front of you, then there's nothing "worth" doing. If you wait for large groups to appear, you miss out on the smaller goals all around you.</p><p>5. Big groups are bigger targets for co-opting tactics from the oligarchs: they're often bought out &amp; toothless. Small groups don't need grant money, staff, &amp; webpages, so they do not need to chase validation from people with money."</p><p><a href="https://ni.hil.ist/tags/Activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Activism</span></a></p>

Sir Rochard 'Dock' Bunson<p>Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now:</p><p>4. Print out little stickers. Write a message on them. Put them up on poles, in restrooms, at gas stations. Make them pithy, but focus on the person you might imagine reading it. Don’t lead with “Trump and Musk are fascists” however true that might be.

Ms. Que Banh<p>I don't care how many protest events you've been to, I don't care if you've spent time at blockades &amp; got arrested either, don't care how much content you post online about caring about the environment IF -&gt; you still choose to fly all over Canada for leisurely trips &amp; when not flying everywhere, you choose to drive all across BC &amp; across Canada, you choose to overconsume material items &amp; create more unnecessary waste - you are part of the problems &amp; not really a part of the solutions.</p><p>The above listed selfish human behaviours are not what any serious environmentalist engages in. It's what performative folks engage in - they film themselves multiple times daily to get views online on multiple sites. Their self worth is tied to their online life/likes. I do not enjoy being around high hypocrisy, dishonest, self absorbed, irresponsible people like that &amp; avoid them as much as possible. I tend to adhere tightly to my standards of association &amp; don't let unsavory selfish folks stay around me. I oust them fast &amp; have not felt bad about it. Being cautiously careful about the company we choose to keep around us is a pretty big part of our self care as well.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Degrowth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Degrowth</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Environmentalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Environmentalist</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/PerformativeFakes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PerformativeFakes</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Activism</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Hypocrisy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hypocrisy</span></a></p>
