How often did ruling actors of any historic social constellation give up ruling by themselves?
May it be - just spontaneous thoughts here - that those beeing ruled over have to do the emancipation?

Accepting it is a choice with practical consequences. We should work on understanding what is to change and how and focus on doing it.
Making prophecies about what “Eventually” happens is self handicapping, wich does not help :)
We don’t exist as a whole, wich is the political challenge I would like people to focus on.
I think in post religious thinking it’s not about “deserve”
Edit (cant properly edit on jerboa rn) … your base argument is right.
Of course your base argument - capitalist economy is ecolocically destructive and dysfunctional regarding the needs of the many.
“Until there is noone left to fulfill their orders” thats the kind of “justice” i’m talking about. Like, Homoestasis will put them down in the end. Justice will be served. But that’s deceptive satisfaction.
Don’t go down the “natural balance” kind of revenge fantasy. It only makes one comfy in passivist boundedness. Also the guy in the picture is far more likely do do just fine in a climate catastrophy than you. Gaia nature god lady won’t bring you any justice, at all.
Fatalism is in that mix, too. A very easy way to meet political complexity
Whats going on ITT?
You fluffin find out where that insecurity comes from and help them build themselves up.
Constructive and empathic (self)critique is how transformation works
This is not how you strenghthen solidarity. In case anyone ever gave you warmth when you were struggling to be a nice person: ponder that situation :)
Can’t tell if you’re joking or ate the anti-communism-propaganda a donald trump would feed you with
I was gonna add “these days” but didn’t
I get the epic of marking climate change as a general human issue by doing stonehenge. Doing, let’s say, the wall street bulls statue or smth in London marking climate change as a capital issue would have been smarter thou
Looks more like a few hours of cramping body and soul followed by 3 days of emotional hangover
If you seek emancipation of anyone or anything by critique, you should read up what others wrote down, that had or have the same goal.
Otherwise your are individualistically and egoistically sabotaging the very project you want to contribute to.
Saying the most edgy thing to feel yourself “being on the right side” will not do good to anyone except yourself.
It is not. If it was consensual it might be. If it’s real it’s not.
Surpressing your empathy in face of dire news is your right. We all have to in order to psychologically survive these times.
I think you shouldn’t act out that surpression as a funny joke in public. This adds to the brutalization of the public, wich we can’t really afford in these times, if we want them to become more human, more bearable
Paywall at the real article… Why would they?
There’s only one reason to clickbait that hard
