Mutual aid is infinitely more ethical and pragmatic than the Non Profit Industrial Complex.

Lets try that again since I messed up, lol, go me! Yay us, for the month of February for the #NPIC contract which is for passports we broke 600000 calls and the call center day isn't over yet.

Yay, go us! For the #NPIC contract we just broke 600000 calls and the call center day isn't over yet!

making a list of the tradeoffs of leaving the #npic...it's been over 25 years in and maybe it's time.

"1- Abolitionist practice must support proletarian self-activity and foster the conditions for escalation and open revolt against the state and capital--and this happens on multiple scales
2- NPIC ‘movement organizations’ are structurally incapable of doing this, and indeed are compelled to act against self-activity by quelling or redirecting potentially conflictual energies
3- They achieve this in part by claiming to represent a whole ‘community’ or ‘identity,’ delegitimizing those who take approaches not compatible with theirs."

I’m just boosting my own #bookstodon post to say that in the section of Non Profits and NGOs Sara Jaffe brings all the receipts 🧾 #npic #ngos #listentothis #readthis

In my 20+ years w/in the #NPIC, I've seen many nonprofits lose their best people not so much out of a lack of funding but more due to a lack of good management.

If your important donors and or board are predominately white, using a material analysis, are you really BIPOC led? #npic

There are a lot of new NGOs/ONGs (aka "nonprofits" in u.s. english) on fedi. Probably a good time to review how these organizations contain & destroy radical social movements, because there's no reason to believe they won't do the same thing here.

2[-ish] sentence summary: NGOs are funded by rich people & governments to accomplish their long-term goals more flexibly than state agencies or for-profit companies. In the critical u.s. scholarship we're most familiar with, this is known as the "nonprofit industrial complex", or #NPIC; globally it goes by #ONGisation or #NGOization.

Many NGOs—universities, professional associations, institutes, etc.—have been setting up accounts & instances. Don't forget that someone with deep pockets is paying for it in most cases; don't be afraid to ask why.

"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:
