One for the young upstarts!

Post by anarchist of love »

Wanted to push for something that i haven't yet noted others speaking of here. The idea that it is easy to assume things are impossible when we recognize that we're up against empire. How can mere we think that we can "make a difference" when even much better and more openly organized groups can not? (and usually take decades, if not centuries, to finally start to be heard adequately)

But i do see that there is "ONE" WAY we CAN make a difference, and that is "ACTING LOCALLY" (tho BEST in places away from where one lives)! Because i've personally noted that when one (or a few) CHALLENGE the ideological consensus individually, we CAN surprise them in ways they didn't expect, AS WELL AS INSPIRE and tend to the SPIRITS of our own!!

This is a KEY thing!
Do not ASSUME (like the political police wish you to) that it is not!

Our collective, psychological health CAN MAKE A CRUCIAL DIFFERENCE as we share (while cheerfully ignoring the trolls) some of the myriad ways we can EACH "do something".

WHAT ARE YOU CALLED TO DO?


GO WITH IT! (as long as it isn't violence; i'm not advocating violence at all, except in direct self-defense!)

Now, i'm "on the fence" about whether to share our TACTICS publicly, but i think we CAN STILL share the basics of our actions! Like i have done in posting several of my own direct actions over past years! (did you see them?)

(Tho maybe sharing tactics in some detail publicly doesn't matter, given our predicament? What say YOU?!?)

Almost everything can be "an action" for our self-defense, depending on how we want to see things! Start simply, not taking many chances (just using a public photocopy machine used to have me trembling furiously!), at first! And then dare deeper as you go!

Taggers! Posterers (with wheatpaste)! What can YOUR IMAGINATION "drum up"?!?

So i thought i'd try starting this up and see how many "hits" this gets, over time...if nothing else (heh)!

:roll: :lol: 8-)

And since i'm thinking of it, here's a bit of MY ART, in pdf format (link) to show you that i am "someone" worthy of taking some time with! :

(non-erotic, but dives deep! Hand-drawn comix full-color art, anti-copyright : useful for possibly selling in parts, re-worked, to buy you more time away from tyranny?!? Feel free to pass around widely, and if you find positive feedback, do share with me! PM?)
