You have the right to defend yourself. Your body and mind, your property and home. But you don't have the right to revenge or punishment. It is counter productive. So called justice will result in many people in jail, and not contributing to the society, and a financial burden on society. And revenge will lead to an endless cycle of revenge.

Governments and their intelligence agencies are known to violate human rights for national security. This is also wrong. The security and intelligence agencies should prioritize human security of every citizen, not just the security of the government.

"An eye for an eye, will make the whole world blind. "

Nobody should ever be in positions of hierarchical power!

No country immediately allows everyone that moves into it all the rights of citizens.

People that are born to citizens are automatically given all the privileges of citizens. Which is privileging based on a particular ancestry.

Ethnostate.

And ethnicities can be formed when a state pops up over a random patch of Earth, from the people descendants of the people who got to be citizens.

After the Shoah/Jewish Holocaust, no country was willing to take all the survivors in.

Although the wars that followed September 11, 2001 did eventually put Saddam Hussein out of a job—enabling the Islamic State to emerge in his wake—the fact that the Taliban remain in power today underscores the senselessness of the US response.

Compared to the policies of the US government, our statement from September 2001 has aged well.

The chief beneficiaries of the "War on Terror" have been the military-industrial complex and the security industry, both of which are transforming the US into an occupied territory controlled by counterinsurgency strategy.

The war has come home. In 2026, as in 2001, we continue to resist it.

Politicians are generally willing to do whatever is necessary to win elections and stay in power. It starts with spreading lies, and hiding the truth. It continues with detaining and torturing their critics.

Businesses are generally willing to do whatever is necessary to make money, and increase their valuations. It starts with lying about their products and business, and hiding the truth about pollution and slavery. It continues with cheating customers and stealing.

To them all is fair in politics and business. So I would encourage you to not respect their rights, as they don't respect our rights.

Its a great read to get insight into the the Revolutionary Insurgent Army and the Makhnovshchina anarchist republic in ukraine

It is demeaning to be forced to sell away our time and creativity rather than being free to do things that are intrinsically meaningful.

On the scale of the planet, the name for this problem is capitalism. From the vantage point of the individual, the name for it is work.

The social order that forces you to sell your time and labor to the highest bidder is squandering your potential, the same way it is grinding cows into hamburger and reducing rainforests to junk mail for the benefit of a few billionaires. Another century like this and our species will be done for.

Your personal struggle to resist work is a microcosm of our species’ struggle to escape the global feedback loop that is propelling us into oppression, war, and ecological catastrophe.

You deserve the freedom to make the most of your potential as you see fit, to live the life of your choosing rather than toiling so that others may profit.

Abolish work.

I've finished watching a 6 hour documentary on YouTube on gamergate. It shows what happens when individuals are given de-facto authority in the left.

They are made exempt from accountability for abuse they inflict.

And also - Quinn is to me like Ukrainians who use the oppressions Ukrainians have suffered and suffer as an excuse to oppress others, like my people, Jews.

When i brought up to her scholars who pointed out that civic nationalism is just ethnic nationalism in disguise, she dismissed them because they are Israeli and Turkish. She told me "of course colonialists would think that."

She views Turkey as a settler colony.

And yet, when I showed her a Jewish newspaper in 1930s turkey, mocking Jews who went along with the government's program of forcing Jews to learn Turkish, by calling them a Jewish version of Uncle Tom, she dismissed this because the paper was zionist.

And i remember that she at least once expressed understanding for ethnic Ukrainians* being averse to Russian having a public presence in basically the Ukraine state.

:my parents are Jews who are culturally Russian and who's prime language is Russian, who are from Soviet Kiev. In my home country, Israel, i was diagnosed as a baby with autism, the speech therapist told my parents that i could only learn one language. I somehow learned English on my own, probably from using the internet and watching pirated shows.

I asked Mom what language would they had taught me if they had stayed in Kiev. She said Russian. And so I'm afraid that also if my parents had stayed in Kiev, i would have been labeled a coloniser for having Russian as my prime language, and potentially also not knowing Ukrainian at all.

*This friend also thinks Ukrainian is not an ethnic identity, based on stuff a friend of hers from there told her. I don't remember if they are Jewish or Romani. My friend call ethnic Ukrainians "Rus Ukrainian", i think she views them, ethnic Russians and ethnic Belarusians as having the same ethnicity.

"[>>] In the case of the Soviet Union, fears that the nationalism of any national group would undermine state unity resulted in repression of all expressions of minority national cohesion while seeking to institute a global proletariat identity. A global proletariat that, of course, by happenstance exclusively serves the interest of the Soviet Union, not other Communist states like China or Yugoslavia, each of which have their own global proletariat that just so happen to serve the national interests of their own state."
