But we have flying cars

That’s how anarchy has been portrayed by propaganda media since time immemorial because it scares those in power.

Anarchy means without hierarchy. That’s it. Rules can still be agreed upon. It just means there isn’t one person, or group of elites, setting and enforcing the rules, but that they’re agreed upon by consensus.

Just like hierarchical systems, there are many different variations of anarchy. Very few, if any, serious forms call for chaos and everything goes.

Why? Because it would just lead straight back to Might is Right. “I’m bigger, stronger, more powerful than you, so I’ll make you do as I wish” isn’t a part of anarchist theory.

Anarchism, despite seeming a simple concept on paper, is a difficult and complicated idea. Not because of the core principles but because humans and human behaviour are weird and hypocritical at times.

That’s MTG, right? Who’s the jumpsuit guy?

Lemmy comments like to rhyme.

“At least he is more civilised”

To me, that makes him scarier. He can keep a mask on while stabbing you in the back. Trump, at least, is pretty open with who and what he is.

Hindenburg and others thought Hitler wasn’t scary at first. They thought they could control him. Look how that turned out. Civilised doesn’t mean moral. It doesn’t mean he’ll do right for the county and people. It just means he knows his airs and graces when they’re needed.

As Backlog said, there’s no such thing as a good Nazi.

“Only a fool breaks the 2 second rule.”

I was taught to repeat that phrase, at a normal steady pace, when I saw the back of their car go past something, to use as a marker (a signpost, the end of one of the lines on the road, whatever).

If you finish the phrase after the front of your car has gone past the same marker, then you don’t have a big enough braking distance and need to ease off a bit.

Which Google Translate thinks means Red Stubble haha

It means Red Point

Gaelic defines colours differently from English. The term “red” here means the orange-brown hue of the rock, which is most obvious in the foreground of your picture.

Great pic!

Buachaille Etive Mòr translates as “great/big herdsman of Etive” for anyone curious, with Etive being the name of the river/glen.

It’s definitely an advert.

That’s why I bought a tarp. I know it’s gonna take me a couple years to get round to fixing the roof but I don’t want the rafters etc to rot in the meantime so I’ma chuck a big ol’ tarp on top and call it good until I can get my mind to hyperfixate on fixing it.

I thought it was something to do with Kim Dotcom’s Mega at first. Such a dumb headline.

And the carrot plant looks near identical to Giant Hogsweed because they’re both in the same family. One has a delicious carrot underneath and will do you no harm, you can even eat the green tops. The other will cause you severe burns even just by brushing against it. The plant itself doesn’t even burn you, it destroys the skin in such a way that sunshine is what burns you.

Your comment made me think of this spoken piece at the end of Anti-Police Aggro by Oi Polloi.

“Revolution isn’t a thing that happens overnight. It’s not a thing that - the orgasmic storming of Buckingham Palace and everything’s all right in the morning, we’ve got a revolutionary society. We’ve got to realize that as things get harder - when we have a revolution, when we’re headed towards a revolution things’ll be harder still - and when we’ve obtained our revolution it doesn’t stop - it continues on and on and on and on - It continues on until WE are the moderates. Right? When we are the moderates that’s when we have a revolution. When ordinary people say “Anarchists? Ah, fuck - they’re a load of fuckin liberals - they don’t believe in revolution at all, ah, fuckin hell they’re useless, like, you know” - Yeah, that’s what I wanna see. That’s what I’m fuckin’ fighting for.”

Dominance over the definition of the word dominance even

racism /rā′sĭz″əm/

noun

1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
3. The belief that each race has distinct and intrinsic attributes.

I know it’s just a dumb meme but how do you think racism starts? My experience is it tends to begin as “just a joke” until it’s normalised enough that someone feels comfortable enough to take off the mask and either encourage or perform discrimination and/or violence.

Why tolerate white racism when we don’t tolerate any other kinds?

Haha racism good when we play the reverse uno card, definitely nothing wrong with that…

How do you expect to convince white racists that racism is bad if you upvote things that are racist towards them?

Does it matter? Ultimately, these are estimates. Educated, data backed estimates, but still estimates.

One larger than expected volcanic eruption, coral reefs dying faster than expected, whatever, all it takes is one or two things to not go the way they’re expected and everything speeds up.

20 years or 25 years, the point is we’re all kinda fucked unless we do something about it.

What we need to do has been and will continue to be debated ad nauseam, but we know we must do something.

What’s your alternative to democracy after this “peaceful revolution”? Who’s in charge? You?

Is this revolution anarchist, communist, fascist, or something else?

And what kind of democracy are you talking about? There are many varieties, with some being far better than others.
