This article by my favorite activist explains one reason why I sometimes don't back efforts to "do good" that originate and stay within the confines of our current societal system (i.e. charities, political stuff)

Bc the real solution to our ills lies OUTSIDE of the current system.

But we can't get discouraged. We have to act in the here & now to create a solution of care that will help us survive and dismantle colonialism and capitalism. Community!

of course #Trump listened to the #FarRight #radical promoting #ConspiracyTheories

Trump fired at least 3 senior #NationalSecurity Council [#NSC] officials at the urging of the #extremist & conspiracist #LauraLoomer, according to a US official w/direct knowledge of the matter. The dismissals came a day after she met him in the Oval Office with a list of administration personnel she deemed #disloyal to him.

Laura Loomer has been part of a group effort by some Trump allies to disparage members of the White House staff whom they consider fundamentally at odds with the president’s “America First” foreign policy.

It kinda hurts my belief in humans when I see radicals choosing to expend significant amounts of energy on tearing down the works of other radicals, on the basis of overall minor issues or outright smear.

People who only know how to dismantle but not how to build are a real obstacle for real change to occur.

This doesn't mean you can't criticise your fellow radicals, but don't go on a f-ing crusade against them, and don't make dismantling your sole activity.

There's a lot of excellent #advice going around about how to start getting involved in #DirectAction. I'm also thinking about how to keep the #momentum going once we've started, and #build upon what we're doing.

If you've read a #radical book, you can summarize it in a more #accessible format like a #zine, and share what you learned.

If you've planted a #VictoryGarden, you can share what you've grown with your #local #MutualAid network.

How should children in the future seize the means of production without the basic tools of reading and writing? This is manufacturing generational ineptness or serfdom. Without being able to formulate their own ideas and grasp more complex topics, they will be doomed to the whims of authority and people who have the aptitude to grasp those concepts. Am I missing here the point 🤔 This is madness. #imho
