It actually does if done right.  What just happened in Minneapolis is an example of anarchy.  Leaderless organizing that worked very well.

There's always that moment where they start killing each other. It never works. It's almost communism. It's a good concept it never works out.

It just turns into a strong man economy where the person with the most power and the biggest gun gets everything and no one else gets anything.
I don't need a king. I need to be able to afford medical care and actually buy a place to live.

How the fuck am I gonna do that if there's some fat dude covered in spikes with a machine gun on top of my house one day who says it is his now?

Just out of curiosity but where do you stand on the political spectrum Genesis? You don't seem to be overly happy about leftist ideas but I've seen you criticize right-wingers too.

All political philosophies are idealistic and unrealistic. "Anarchy wouldn't work" is a phrase that practically causes me to stroke out these days, because that's also true of literally anything else distilled into its purest form with no deviation and anyway, the only constant in human societies is change. I think of things in terms of being part of a tradition more than anything else. Building and maintaining what I want to see, rather than hoping for some magical second coming of the Paris Commune. My favorite Anarchist authors weren't prescribing so much as describing what they saw. People can run their mouths about abstractions all day long, but the reality is that human societies hold themselves together via non-heirarchical cooperation, and always have. I don't need to live in a squat with a bunch of cosplaying art punks to figure that out. I don't give a shit what people call themselves, it's how they think and act that actually matters.

Crowdkilling is the worst shit ever. But other than that, most of those windmill pits aren't really all that violent as long as you conform to their expectations. What pisses me off is that a dozen or so kids can take over the entire floor, leaving most of the crowd bunched up in the back. It's like a fucking 8 lane highway just materialized, and you better get out of the way or get run over. But they're mostly just swinging their arms and legs like dorks and keeping enough clearance to avoid each other. Aside from the stray fists and kicks, I think what actually enrages me about it is that it's basically Hardcore line dancing. Like, the absolute worst sort of conformist gatekeeping. And then if you're not down with their idiotic bullshit, you're just not "hard" enough. Last night, I was literally just doing my usual routine when I see an upcoming local show I might be interested in when the band names all sit right on the cusp between something that sounds cool and something that just sounds like random words from a school shooter's diary. Pull up those youtube videos of live shows and watch the crowd. Sure enough, this one was a hard miss. Windmill line dancing right from the get-go. But then one of the bands even started their set with the stereotypically shirtless and roided-out front man saying "alright, you know the deal, hard men in the front, soft men in the back" or some shit like that.

I always liked a nice chaotic pogo-and-shove-around myself, but I'll take a metal circle pit in a pinch. I remember one Hardcore show a while back that DIDN'T suck, a bunch of beer got spilled on the floor and then the crowd parted and people were taking turns using it as a slip and slide during Negative Approach's set. Then I remembered that this was probably my fault, because <redacted>

You know you're the first person on this site who has ever asked me that. It's complicated. I wrote an entire dossier about it when I was tripping my ass off on ayahuasca. That I would say is the closest to a political map I've ever written.

That’s it in a nutshell. In most cases the masses are just useful idiots for someone to get their power.

Maybe it’s humanity’s way of culling the herd. And maybe our real differentiator among all the animals is that we eat our own.

I'm pretty addicted to caffeine right now, and work is getting the better of me. I feel like I could use a month long vacation just to recharge a bit. I can't even make the headspace and peace of mind for a good trip. It sucks.

Going through a lot of changes right now. But I'll manage. I'm not alone for everything anymore at least. Stepping out of my comfort zone if of the utmost essence right now.

I hope y'all are doing great!

At some point I think we (as a race of animals) might have to separate humans into distinct modern species. I refuse to believe that I am the same breed as some of these things I see, not a care in the world for the actual world but deep concern about Palestine or any other horseshit that is as far outside their orbit as pluto.

That's my confession. I honestly don't believe I'm the same breed as most of the people I meet. My lot branched off a long time ago, the good went the path of light, the others went the path of darkness. I am caveman.

Diamonds in the rough, not better - just dynamically beautiful instead of dynamically diabolical. The shroomery is a reserve of beautiful spirits.

P.s Putin is culling his country of fighting age males to subdue potential uprising.

Been craving extra caffeine today, got an extra cup of coffee, drank it, now I feel ready for a nap, or maybe some meditation. Dangerous game at work though :hehehe:


I confess that I poked myself in the hand with a scalpel harvesting this morning(hardly did anything), then dropped the scalpel and it went clean through my flipflop, sticking handle up. Half a cm over woulda been a different story :uhoh: got lucky :hehehe:

First of all if you skip caffeine on your days off work you get 2 benefits.  1) You will be more tired and that lets you nap or just sleep in longer and 2) When you have a nice cup of coffee again it will feel really great.

Agar wedge, have you investigated the twist and pull technique?!

Systems are good.

Genesis, that would be a part of a system. It seems to me that these sacrifice systems came to be because humans were overpopulating and overusing resources so if you sacrificed your baby or small child of course there will be more for everyone. Because the total number of folks is smaller now.  You can get prosperity of material goods by sacrificing others however the end game is the propagation of a sick society and the destruction of the rest of our environment.

We have systems like irrigation and crop rotation now. We don't need to sacrifice babies.

We don't need to return to feudalism and caves to move forward as a species. That's going backwards.
