Monsters, scratch our fluff crew, and they turn spiky, repression is a universal human problem to be mediated. The subject of the fluffy/spiky debate – respect for diversity and the desire for debate based on this respect is a core outcome. We need to build bridges. If you suffer from stress in this context, please…
On the wider subject of this thread, Identity politics and the agender it pushes
In the face of growing #climatechaos and our attention being trapped inside the #dotcons, I see most people as complete fantasists and see the worship of the #deathcult as their main motivation. In the next 5–10 years, I see a lot of BLOCKING and lots of blowing of smoke to cover this behaver. I live…
The “cloud” is just a big corporate run data centre that can and will burn down
You do realize that all our data is HORRIBLY centralized and thus could vanish at any moment, come the revolution/evolution/ #climatechaos tsunamis. Our end plan in the #OMN is that all the content is redundantly stored in the network in a #KISS way, so traditional backup is less important -when it goes wrong, and it…
As with most metaphors (and real life) the definition is not exact
* Fluffy – asking/pressuring for change though the system * Spiky – fucking shit up to enact change and directly and sometime ethically using “violence” to property – not to people. * Beyond spiky the is WAR where direct harm to people happens – that’s outside the metaphor. It’s interesting to take a few moments…
What do you mean by “mainstreaming”
Q. what do you mean by “mainstreaming”. A. we all worship the #deathcult (neo-liberalism) in polatics, economics, most of the food we eat, our jobs and social lives are all mediated/mostly created by this invisible world-view. In progressive terms #mainstreaming is pushing this agender to build carriears and social structures to further the personal #stupidindividualism…
A humane project to push balance back into the current #deathcult flow
I think it is time to talk about giving up our desire for total control and moving to thinking about the world as flows rather than static. Our illusionary “static” individualism is a mental illness that makes us powerless to resist the displacement and death of billions of us over the next 100 years due…
What does anarchism want #4opens #OMN is an attempt to find an answer
Q. “We’re supposed to think of #metadata as less than #data, but it isn’t: often it is more. . .#govts that want to control their people & crush #dissent want #metadata.” #privacy #Whatsapp #BigTech This is an interesting point, but it only makes sense if you see people as isolated individuals and the being no…
Anti dogmatic thinking
Brining #indymediaback The fallow flower beds/farm that is #indymedia needs to be bought back to life slowly with as little change to the structure as possible. In our current social tech state just about ANY change will start ripping and when this starts it escalates quickly to do real damage. The original 2000-2008’ish structures cover…
Q&A what is a fashernista in the hashtag way.
Q. I’ve read a lot of your stuff but I’m hoping you’ll clarify something. What’s a “fashernista”? A. A large part of society who do what’s fashionable. Not what’s right/wrong/best. In the era of the #deathcult of neo-liberalism this has always been the wrong path to take. It’s a simple idea. men-make-their-own-history-but… #fashernista is a…
