IMO the capitalists, the politicians, and the cops broke whatever social contract ever existed. Your neighbors, as much assholes as they might be, whatever box they ticked on the ballot box, were caught up in the breakage. You don't have to like them, hell you don't even need to forgive them, but please understand that it is the systems that need to be destroyed. And if we have to destroy any people, let them be the monsters who drive the system (capitalists and politicians) and the people who inflict that violence upon us (cops, ICE).

I'm assuming that's a firework?
I feel you. Hope you feel better in a few hours when all this Independence Day crap is over โฅ๏ธ.
Capitalists and the rulers who do their bidding
Nah. I'm pissed at the Trumpets too, but voting ain't worth shit.
Be kind to people, be ruthless to systems.
Perfectly reasonable. I don't disagree with that. But we still need to prepare for the day when disclosing that coherent worldview is needed. And more importantly: a coherent anarchist worldview can inform what you give to the movements you contribute to, and you can give an honest justification for why.
I can still work with people i disagree with.
Me too 1000%. All the more reason why we need to come up with our own coherent worldview ๐
They're the same picture
But i can work with pretty much any if it, if the foundation is 'i care about people and/or the planet'.
For sure I can work with them too, but we have to be ready to have these debates and work through these issues. My point is that good vibes are not enough to do good politics. Of course, people with good vibes are going to be much more agreeable to anarchist ideas, and any debates we do have will be more productive than people with bad vibes. But we still need to have clear ideas and good praxis with a solid logical and historical basis.
Ppl my take is basically "good vibes โ good politics", why is this controversial?
I want to believe
I mean for me, every day is No-more-USA day ๐๐๐ด๐ด๐ด
But wait, isn't every day America-is-trash Day? ๐ด๐ด๐ด๐ด

Yes, that's why we should stop capitalist violence by tossing them into the sea ๐ด๐ด๐ด
