Resist: It's Time

0 readers

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

Ask them what their political ideology is on a deeper level than communist or anarchist. And then ask them to describe it.

Yeah its half a joke, but seriously, if you've been leftist long enough you know the fights we have over taxes. The argument as a shibboleth isn't a perfect tool, it can fail and it can make everyone hate each other, but cops are unlikely to be prepared for it

, if you’ve been leftist long enough you know the fights we have over taxes.

"ANCAP ANCAP!? NAP NAP NAP!!! THEN WHO WOULD BUILD THE ROADS?"

Did I do it right?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Absolutely officer, you did swimmingly.

[–] IDrawPoorly@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Hey - first off, how fucking dare you

Secondly - >implying cops wouldn't know what the NAP is even just to mock it

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Oh cops absolutely know about it. Their "anarchist" buddies talk about it. It's just that ancaps aren't anarchists

we don't have fights over the concept of taxes; you're just wrong and it's okay for you to be wrong as long as you do it my way.

oh, see, im a post(ing)-posadist, and you're just wrong. the revolution will only happen when our radio shell reaches alien civilizations and so thoroughly disturbs their linguists that they send help and make a classless stateless society for us.

only posting can bring the revolution, comrade.

Our radio shell will never reach alien civilizations because of the very low power and the inverse square law. The signals will be weaker than the CMB before they get any real distance.

you're just a hater, can't handle communism like an adult. maybe you should shut up and post harder if you want a better world.

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I can’t tell if you’re being a goof or if you’re actually like this.

does it matter? I embody post-posadism either way.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Wow way to go for the nuclear option

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

no, no, I'm a post-posadist. we don't believe nuclear annihilation would be disturbing enough to a hypothetical observer. they need to see a youtube comments section.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Ya ain't wrong, but every accelerationist has come to that conclusion

that youtube comments are necessary?

that aliens need to see youtube comments?
