Ill save the video.

The word nation was made to connect people to the beatling, so for this reason I think it should be weeded out, but I dont know what to replace it with. Im tasting root at the moment. A child born from an syrian and a norwegian parent could then say their roots are of syria and norway. But Im still thinking about whether it makes sense.

Im using words I believe reflect reality better.

Using machine instead of capitalism to emphasize structures of might, and using unwellness instead of problem to emphasize looking at our world as living rather than an engineering project.

I don’t like to use the word might/power when discussing our horizontal influence. Instead I like to distinguish between might and force. Might is to influence from above, whereas force is to influence from below. We can see from this that might and force are opposites, but we also see that we should strive to have force rather than might.

By embracing our force, we move away from authority based influence, towards concent based influence.

Quote from Margaret Killjoy in the video:

There are two sides to this struggle: rapid response and mutual aid. Rapid response networks organize to identify and track ICE vehicles and agents and to disrupt abductions in process. Mutual aid networks organize to get affected people food, medical care, rides, vet visits, company… whatever they need. These are two seperate webs of networks. The mutual aid side is more secretive in its organizing, of course, because it is taking care of the people who cannot leave their homes without being kidnapped… Partly because there’s no central organization, it’s hard to get a sense of the scale of these networks, especially the mutual aid networks. There are tens of thousands of people, at least, being cared for by these networks… When I ask people where all of this came from, the answer was never some specific organization or network or coalition. Organizations, networks, and coalitions are part of this, absolutely. But the core of the resistance is just neighborliness… I can’t emphasize the decentralization of theese networks enough… Decentralizaed networks are harder to inflitrate and harder to destroy. This movement is not leaderless, but leaderful, and there are no few specific people who could be arrested to stop the movement… Noen of this works top-down.

In norwegian we have a word for non-authoritarian leaders, which is called “los”. It comes from somebody who is helping with navigation of ships. I guess it could be translated to guider. You don’t have to listen to the guider, but if they are reckognized as capable, you trust them.

Bloom change force right there 🤗 🌸

Completely agree with that! Anti-fascism alone is to avoid dreaming.

It’s a long video though, so I haven’t seen it through yet to take a stance.

She hasn’t made a song about how we as a society should move towards a car free society. I think that’s pretty devestating.

Obviously you don’t want an answer given the tone.

Chinese medicine focuses on the interconnectedness of the body and uses yin yang, and the five elements as a foundation for understanding. Organs has a relationship with each other similar to how our emotions has a relationship with each other.

Ah, I fell :P

Thank you for pointing it out.

I don’t believe that we can’t bring about change.

Human beings has a change force.

We sow seeds that will bloom with time. Some growlings will need less time, and others will need more time. Especially bigger change will need more time, but as long as we are patient, and give proper care, the growling will bloom.

We bring about change in ourselves through bloom. We water our inner growlings. Water our expression, our meaning, our connections. Our lids are removed from our heads, and we bloom.

We luminate our bloom upon others. Our inner warmth is radiating upon others through all of our communicative channels, our bodylanguage, our facial expressions, our language.

We wave our beings through society and through the world. This is primarily done through poetic resonance.

But although I have emphasized how these can change society for the better, they can also change society for the worse, so we need to be use our changeforce wisely.

Neither of us are getting anything out of this, so let’s shake hand on that at least.

The site has a feed! That’s great :D

Thank you for elaborating.

If the term “mother earth” is sexist or not is something that depends on the context. Well, imo.

The only reason we say “mother Earth” is so that we can apply the symbolic meaning of motherhood upon Earth. Otherwise we might as well say “planet Earth” and cut the unwanted associations.

The characteristics you project to motherhood and fatherhood are totally stereotypical.

I’m simply using daoism and yinyang. Yin representing the feminine energy and yang representing the masculine energy. I’m using mother and father as images of forwarding the yin and yang upon the machine. By doing so, we get a wholistic insight into the nature of the machine, why the machine is attractive and how the machine is destructive.

So the question is then; Do you think that yinyang is sexist, or that I’m using yinyang in a sexist manner?

To me it seems obvious you haven’t spent any time on this topic and I assume that since you like writing, most probably you like reading? If that’s the case, I invite you to use your favorite search engine and start researching this topic. I really hope you’ll enjoy the findings!

If you want to challenge me on any statement or positions, go ahead. If you have any questions for me, I’ll answer them. If you want me to look into an article and give you my impressions go ahead and share. But simply “do research”, “ask AI” makes me depressed because I’m here to have conversations. If it is dumb or smart conversations. I believe that we find the right way when we talk with each other instead of outsourcing conversations to the machine.

Honestly, I don’t see why you would think that. Is it because a mother and father are gendered? Then do you think the term “mother earth” is also sexist?

If it is unclear, this is the kind of image I’m talking about when I say the motherly machine.

Could you elaborate?

Are you insinuating that I like the machine? wtf man

You’re personifying many complicated things of abstract concepts that mesh and interact with each other in various ways.

Thank you :)

An unstopped parasitic mold might be a better metaphor.

I assume you are thinking about the machine framing. Perhaps, but I can’t decide whether I agree or disagree. On the other hand, I think the machine is a very good analogy for the structure of might. As something unfeeling, uncaring, mechanical, focused on efficiency rather than meaning.
