Great read. People believing they have the right to eat meat is clearly based on the fact that they believe humans to be supreme and above other nonhumans

A lot of countries opposed Germany in "ww2" because they wanted their country to be the global superpower, not Germany. So it's not that they had an issue with Germanys ideaology, but instead felt threatened by it's existence, similar to how the US and USSR felt threatened by each other's existence. In fact both the US and Soviet union had policies of their own that were pretty similar to the nazis. The US had Japanese internments camps, along with racial segregation. Soviet union had gulags and the great purge

Exploitation. Everything is built around exploitation. Of course capitalism is not the only exploitive system that exists, it's just the one most visible to us.

I appreciate that tbh lol. Nice knowing I'm not alone in my struggles

 

Basically the title. I'd like to meet some more anarchists around where I love and hopefully become more active with them and potentially organize. Just not sure how to start that so would helpful for some ideas!

This is why we should pirate everything and never give a shit

Not a fan of ziq but I do have to admit that I'd agree that marxism and anarchism want something different. I think it's fair to say they want something similar but not exactly the same. Marxism wants communism that is supported through a marxist like apparatus, with a centralized administration, even after the withering away of the state. And they would still support heighachy and the existence of political power, while anarchists who advocate communism advocate for a decentralized anarchist society with communist economics

Definitely a good read. Youth liberation is super important. Young people are forced to suffer so much abuse and mistreatment because they aren't considered "adult" it's unbelievable
