Horrible fact of the day: Chevron just released a new boat fuel that WILL give you cancer.
Not "might", not "could", WILL. It has a cancer ratio of 1.3:1, as in, in a group of 10 people, 10 would contract CANCER.
(Edit: apparently some articles are now saying 1.4:1, and some are saying a little under that. Either way, the consensus seems to be anywhere between a 95-100+% of contracting cancer, with some expectations of this fuel not even needing a full lifetime of exposure for you to get Cancer.)
The EPA's safety limit is 1:1,000,000 as in 1 in a million people get cancer.
The EPA approved it anyways. I am not joking. The EPA approved a boat fuel that has a near 100% chance of giving someone cancer. It has such a good chance of giving someone cancer that if you DIDN'T get cancer YOU WOULD BE AN OUTLIER.
Fuck the oil industries.
Edit: If you find this (rightfully) horrifying, have you considered industrial sabotage? /hj
This isn't something we can vote away. This isn't something the rich are gonna apologize and make a 10 minute apology video for this. They don't care if you starve or wither in hospitals or get blown up in their wars.
If you don't know where to get started:
If you already know what to do, then it's time to do it. Participate in mutual aid, raise awareness in real life as well as online, participate in or train in self defense and emergency medical training classes.

"humans are inherently violent theres no way we could survive without a dictator to control us. its like wolves"
wolves only do that in captivity.
in the wild, an "alpha" wolf is just the breeding male, and the beta his mate. the puppies eat first. the alpha even hides food so the pups can learn to find it themselves. he cares for the pack.
in captivity, the wolves get stressed. they are trapped and react by becoming aggressive, fighting over resources simply from stress of lack of freedom.
capitalism forces us to fight over resources. there is no lack of resources, our dictators just withhold it from us. this makes us stressed, and much like the captive wolves, we get aggressive.
we make enemies where there are none, because like the wolves, we are captive.

So you may be thinking, anarchy, isn't that a bit drastic? Yes, and I may go back on this perspective in some number of years, but right now I think it's what the world needs. What I do believe is that the core principles of anarchy are often misconstrued by both the media and what we're taught in school.
Oxford Dictionary has two definitions for anarchy:
a state of disorder due to the absence or unrecognition of authority or other controlling systems.
the organization of society on the basis of voluntary cooperation, without political institutions or hierarchal government; anarchism
This being said, the political belief of anarchy (2) is often mixed up with the subject of state of disorder (1). What most attracts me to this faction is the concept that no one is free until we destroy hierarchal structures which serve to put people down based on class and other demographic factors such as race or gender. Along with this, the sub-faction of eco-anarchism believes that climate change and other environmental problems are the largest issues impacting our world today, and believes that radical action is needed to make any change. Seeing as how slowly it has taken to enact positive environmental legislation in society today through democratic principles, the next best step are those highlighted in the tenants of radical environmentalism.
In the end, no one is free until we are all free. "No gods, no masters."

Today we lost Ted Kaczynski. It's not surprising, we all knew that day was around the corner, considering his diagnosis, but hearing about it still shook me a bit. He was certainly not a flawless person, but his uncompromising devotion to defending the wild against the system of civilisation will forever earn him my respect. We need more people of such powerful character, determination and wit. Rest in power, Uncle Ted 💚

why have big rich men and concrete industrialized everything when we could have plants and bugs and front yards that aren't just turf grass and happy people walking outside with the ones they care about if we just stopped putting up with a world of increasing bigotry and boiling and ended the systems that do us harm 🌱 [seedling emoji]

Important, PLEASE Read and Share.
TW // Violence and Police Brutality.
Protesters in Atlanta Georgia are being threatened on bogus charges by the state.
For the past 2+ years, protesters in Atlanta Georgia have been protesting and camping out in the Weelaunee Forest, Atlanta's largest remaining green space. With so little of these vast spaces left, and more being taken, it is so important to save what we can.
The Atlanta Police Foundation chose the Weelaunee Forest to establish a massive training complex which would include fake city like buildings for Police training, which is why the project has been dubbed "Cop City". This training facility would no doubt be used to increase the militarization of the Police, and add to the harassment and brutalization both black communities and protesters face when trying to live and exercise their rights.
The facility would be built adjacent to a majority Black, working class community that was not only promised the forest for trails and park space, but would surely be subject to even more policing instead of a Third Space* they can use as a community.
The facility would desecrate 87 acres of land, spanning over 381 acres, and costing around $90 million dollars that could have gone back into community projects and care instead of further the subjugation of the working class.
Police have been extremely violent towards the dubbed "Forest Defenders", raiding the forest multiple times to shoot pepper balls at nonviolent protesters and also destroying shelters, water/food storage, and even purposely destroy Jewish religious sites, including a Sukkah that was built for Sukkot and was destroyed by police in a raid 2 months after, along with a large Menorah which "disappeared". The forest camps has become an important religious site for Jewish people in and around Atlanta, as more than 60+ Jewish People have traveled to the forest for Shabbat, with hundreds more joining the live stream for Shabbat.
The forest is not just important for nearby Black and Jewish communities, the Defenders adding shelters, cafeterias, and even a small stage venue in the forest in an effort to Squat the forest has provided local homeless communities with a warm place to eat and shelter. The forest has transformed into a safe space for the community as Defenders educate each other and the Atlanta communities on first aid, cultural differences, leftism and anarchism in practice, and more.
Following violent interactions with Police, protesters have responded by burning down construction equipment (with no construction workers nearby), and throwing rocks at Cops who attempted to get close to harass the protesters. When it comes to the safety of our planet and communities, property is replaceable.
However, a life is not. On January 18th, 2023, a nonbinary anarchist eco activist, who was knowledgeable as a street medic and worked tirelessly as a forest defender, was shot and killed by Georgia State Troopers during another raid on the forest. Their name was Manuel “Tortuguita” Terán.
Police claimed Tortuguita shot first and injured a trooper, which the media picked up and began to circulate. However, multiple autopsies have confirmed not only did Tortuguita have no gunpowder residue on their hands, but Tortuguita was shot while on their knees, hands in the hair, surrendering to Police. Autopsies also concluded Tortuguita was hit with at least 57 gunshot wounds across their entire body, showing Tortuguita was executed by a police fire squad.
Police body camera footage also showed a Cop admitting that the Troopers had "fucked up their own guy", which authorities of course dismissed and refuse to participate in proving their innocence that they're so sure of.
In response to this, protesters took to the streets and burned a cop car, leading to police arresting 40+ activists. Police also arrested, threatened, and intimidated anyone who was peacefully discussing and sharing information about Tortuguita's murder on the streets of Atlanta, attempting to silence anyone who was even peacefully raising awareness.
Atlanta Police also conducted a random raid of a legally operating Bail Fund based in Atlanta, The Atlanta Solidarity Funds. The raid came as the Atlanta Solidarity Funds was legally raising money and awareness to help with Bail and Legal Defense, as protesters who were arrested peacefully were being charged with Domestic Terrorism, and now RICO/Racketeering charges. The Atlanta Police claim that the Bail Fund was laundering money, but other Bail Funds are calling this out as an obvious act of intimidation since absolutely no stories or proof has been released in conjuction with these financial charges.
There's a lot more, this has been going on for years, but one thing is certain. If we do not stop this here, they will tear the forests in your cities down and continue to militarize the police, furthering the oppression of the working class and continuing to make Black and marginalized communities lives hell.
Please read up on what has been happening in Atlanta because there's way more than the bits I talked about here. The Forest Defenders have been through so fucking much, and they still have a lengthy battle. But you cannot kill an idea. You can follow the Atlanta Solidarity Fund and the Forest Defenders on Social Media to keep up with them.
PLEASE boycott when possible, or be extremely vocal, towards the companies backing cop city. PLEASE tell them they have Blood on their hands.
Please continue to raise awareness, and follow Cop City closely. Please Read and Share.

trying to write a very convincing and evidence-based speech against a natural gas pipeline and it's proving very difficult because i actually believe that every one of the motherfuckers responsible for funding this shit should be dragged from their homes and beheaded with a broadsword john brown style

a lot of leftists think that they wouldn't have to work in an anarchist society. this is not true. we would absolutely work a fuck of a lot less, and happier workers who work less are more efficient, but we would still work. someone has to tend the crops and livestock. someone has to build homes.
the thing is, we would work to benefit everyone. not everyone is able to work. some people are disabled. if some people put a little time into work a few times a week, not that much because we wouldn't need to mass produce stuff that is never used like capitalism forces us to, the small amount of work would help everyone.
also, there would absolutely be people who want to work. when you work to help people, most people want to put effort into it. the reason current exploited workers are unhappy is because they are payed next to nothing for too much work that only benefits a select few people who refuse to pay people.
i love working when it helps my family. i can spend hours in the garden, and i dont even need to work that long for the plants to be healthy. i do it because i enjoy it. ive met other people who love to work as well. i know someone who loves being an electrician.
work can be fun when its to help our communities. its enjoyable when we work when we want to. it feels good to provide in our own free will.

Many politicians pledge to be dedicated to the environment, and to put environmental issues first, but in reality many people often prioritize their own needs before those of the earth's. If we want a place to live in the future, action needs to be taken now!

That was so beautiful and very Lokean.
Appreceating weeds as spiritual practice and political praxis? Also, is pagan liberation theology a thing? It should be, Lokeans definitely seem often very passionately against oppression, even as an offering to Loki.
