Interesting essay but it makes a lot of presuppositions about human nature from a very anglo-centric perspective steeped in capitalist realism.

This sort of doomerism is terribly counterproductive and ironically idealistic.

A better world is possible.

gee you really like citing fuckin fascists to defend an antisemite and a transphobe.

This is why we call zionism antisemitism. They will carry water for actual antisemites because for their little genocidal ethnostate to continue to exist they need antisemitism to scare people into moving to their colonizer project.

They are not safe in the long run. Nor should they be. Most of the worst crimes of imperialism have been committed in the name of securing stable investment opportunities.

As the contradictions of capitalism sharpen, the highest paying jobs become increasingly detached from productive forces.

Look at the salaries of tech workers for example. Technically the proletariat but are increasingly shunted into jobs like advertising, market research, middle management etc.

Meanwhile the industrial sector is evaporating and more and more people are being funneled into low paying service industry jobs to be literal wage slaves for the steadily shrinking segment of the population employed in "good paying jobs" despite those service sector jobs providing all the comforts that those in higher paying jobs rely upon.

Tesla drivers now legally allowed to drive drunk.

Edit: wonder how long till some Neo-Nazi gets off on charges of terrorism after blaming Tesla autopilot when they plow their car into a pride parade.

Why should the people in those territories that pled for help against the coup government that was slaughtering them for 8 years not be allowed self determination?

And also as an anarchist I don't believe in any legitimacy of either state, but if the people there feel safer under the protection of the Russian federation against the clearly Nazi captured Ukraine government, who am I to tell them what to do?

You talk of Russia trying to install a puppet government but the US SUCCESSFULLY installed a puppet government run by Nazis in 2014.

 
 
 
 
 

This is very long but a very interesting video. There are lots of bookmarks, so you don't necessarily have to watch the entire thing in one go.

I myself am donating $500 as well as heading out to Pine Ridge (famous for peltier-laugh doing a little trolling against the fedposting ) to help out with some of this work including building community gardens and helping to winterize homes for folks on the reservation. Please share this far and wide, this is your chance to actually contribute to revolutionary decolonial praxis (Sungmanitu is an indigenous ML comrade of mine)
