How “Black Visions Collective” & “Reclaim the Block” Support Slaver Colonialism

"What is important to understand here is that the anti-Black politics of the NPIC have the effect of stifling militancy in activist scenes *generally*, not just among people directly affiliated with specific nonprofits."

"When we are motivated by fear of loss and act from a individual-centric lens, we try to control against death by eliminating things we deem to be a threat to our comfort. We kill or restrain things preemptively because they might be a threat, being unaware that those things deemed a threat are interwoven with us, our fates inseparable.  Often, though, we lose in the long run because those things were not threats at all - they were only short-term annoyances. This mindset is a projection of one's shadow self, our places of deep shame, the parts of ourselves that we know cause harm to others, onto the world."

The 2nd installment of my Capitalism through thr Tarot Pentacles (cards 4-6) is here, touching upon scarcity mindset, loss of commons, capitalist spectacle, the non-profit industrial complex, and more:

The “Terrorism” Industry: The Experts and Institutions That Shape Our View of Terror by Edward S. Herman; Gerry O'Sullivan

Topics
, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

What is a terrorist act? The authors argue that experts on the subject hold imperialist views biased in favor of the status quo or government perspectives. The biases are largely a product of the “terrorism industry” that has grown up in response to government funding, which includes networks of government agencies, think tanks, and private security firms. The mass media also have a big role in promoting terrorist stereotypes, often missing a balanced perspective on a “terrorist” act. The authors also discuss the historical uses of stereotyping threatening groups.

I was all set to study C++ at my "Uni" and now realize that in order to accomplish this i must create a C++ class and teach it (while i also learn), ala hackerapace, or im forced to pay out of pocket upwards of $700 "dolores", to achieve this credential. Shocked how ineficiente this sistema educativo is in the supposed first world - 2/3

I'm really turned off by "grassroots groups" that constantly ask me to donate as the only way to support x cause.

Working for a tiny non-profit with bounded territory and relatively stable funding, I sometimes forget how Machiavellian and cut-throat the can get when there's big piles o' grant $ to be contested.

I finally got the chance to pick someone in-the-know's brain about some drama that I'd been catching whiffs of, and it honestly could compete with court intrigue for complexity...

*sits in corner plugging away, happy to be partially shielded from such things*
