Twitter screen cap, violence against immigrants, racism, not description compatible 

White supremacy is deeper than some people think

past memories, privacy, mh 

It's easy to believe that your conditions are fine, that you can put up with them. But once you get out, once you find better, and can heal and discover just how painful things really were, it's a big thing.

I'm more than grateful that I was able to get away, and even if my healing has been slow, even if I feel like I should be better off than I am by now, it's important. It really is.

@Are0h it’s all so artificial, too. These people do not need to be suffering. The housing is there. The food is there. The materials are there, but money bars them from it.

Daryl Davis 

I find it interesting how the only people in this day and age who idolize Daryl Davis are the reactionaries who want to use his body of work to stop efforts to fight fascism in a much more direct way. And today he's come out speaking against antifa and how we're oh so violent.

All I gotta say is, It's only a matter of time. You break bread with fascists long enough, and eventually you'll fall into their habits and mannerisms. I need to emphasize that while Daryl Davis may have once been an ally, he is now an enemy, he's been co-opted and taken in by the modern language of neo-fascists. He's bought into the respectability politics when de-escalation is no longer a viable option today.

It's no longer the 1960's where racists are emboldened to go out and about with skinhead tattoos, and wear bedroom sheets with the Klansman logo on them. Modern fascism is a lot more subtle, insidious, subversive and dangerous, with the public image of them being the clean-cut, clean shaven models of Americans you wouldn't suspect to be out of place in the 1950's.

Remember, out and about villains are easy to identify, but the truly ugly, the truly dangerous people are the ones who hide behind virtue. Don't be fooled.

the word "lazy", mh, abuse (thread) 

I am not lazy. You are not lazy. Stop acting like throwing such a damaging word around to write others off is okay.

Abolish "lazy".

@FreyaManibrandr @Ulfra_Wolfe I want nothing more than to give you all a hug and reassure you everything will be all right.
I took things too far last week tbh

anarchy and democracy 

Also, two points. A democratically held decision can and should be violently opposed from an anarchist perspective if it contradicts freedom of people, in spite of impossibility of forcing people into freedom. Oppressed must be violemtly defended. And all of this is hypothetical, because neither western liberal democratic states, nor authoritarian states are democratic. They lack work place and or political democracy at every level. They are symbolically democratic, and that's only national level and that's limited in options by non-democratic nature of other apects of life and geographiv levels, but also by state legality amd nature of party structure. So, this isn't democracy. But more democracy isn't alwaya good either. Worst dictators are elected by more democratic than usual election processes. Democracies that are accidentally formed have a tendency to relapse and most social structures are formed accidentally. And ideologically democratic groups tend to show chauvenistic tendencies out of sense of superiority. More democracy isn't exactly the solution.

anarchy and democracy 

But having democracy at every aspect of life, economy etc included, would be closest to anarchy, without actually being anarchy. Because then you can technically vote any hierarchy into power.

Echoes of past drama 

People still spread bullshit about how Vedia will always end up burning people, and I am just sitting here and saying "She's a wolf, if you play with wolves without any regard for their personal boundaries or respect for them, you will be bitten. If you treat them with respect for them and their boundaries, you will find a loyal friend instead."

I really don't get it, you abused her, gaslit her, and smeared her in the public forum, and yet you expect her to not be angry, you expect the rest of the Grimaude family not to bite back?

Emotional hangups 

My girlfriend's abusive ex popped up on the federated timeline. That's an instant block from me, not dealing with that.

I mean, look at this. It's in 7/8, with smatterings of 6/8 and 5.8, and I love the rhythmic interest it provides. I even practiced performing and recording a percussion groove on my hand drum for this.

Recovering from AltFurry 

This is all reminded me of the moment my internal struggle started to really shift away from AltFurry, when Foxler leaked the Xanadu back room chat in revenge for how he's been criticized for supporting Kero the Wolf.

They reacted with a lot of anger and gnashing of teeth and talks of revenge and doxing, and yes, while I do want to take Foxler down, it's not because he exposed me, but because of why, and how it almost sabotaged my efforts to work on myself. However, it did give me the kick in the pants I needed to knuckle down and double my efforts to work on bettering myself. I'd freely admit to saying those horrible things, and I am sorry. I am not proud of it, but the point is while they reacted by scattering like cockroaches in the light, I took responsibility and pledged to do better.

And here we are, over half a year later, and I've grown into a fully-fledged fash-basher fighting for the rights of the oppressed.

I *survived* the Seattle scene.

Fuck this bullshit.

This is how vulnerable victims are treated. There were vulnerable victims before me, there are after, and I see how they're handled.

I've seen the bullying.

This is why I hated school, goddamn.
