Despite making massive mistakes and not being able to explain myself (autism sucks sometimes) I have not forgotten about this community. I hoped that by stepping down it would being this community back, looking in retrospect I was extremely mistaken and for that I apologize. In the near future I am willing to retake my spot as the head moderator (with community approval).
To clarify: I am requesting community feedback from anyone who wants to bring back this community
AARON BUSHNELL 1999-2024
"I will be no longer complicit in genocide. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it is not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal. Free Palestine. Free Palestine. Free Palestine."
I always get emotional when I think of Aaron Bushnell. He reminds me of so many of my radical brothers and sisters unable to live with the injustices so many accept as normal.
PS. I tried out the new alt text feature on Jerboa. Let me know if it has any issues!

Alt text: a vintage looking agitprop poster featuring a winking black cat walking on its hind legs and carrying a box of matches on its back. The label on the matches says "L'Éclatante - Revolutionary Matches - All Cats Are Beautiful" and one match is lit with a large flame. The text across the top, sides, and bottom of the poster say "I burn with love for revolution and social justice - Mutual Aid, Self-defense, Public education, Care/Listening - Direct Action, Occupation, Strikes/demos, Sabotage - All against Oppressions"

Hostile architecture is among the symptoms of the hostile modern city, where neighbours never say hi, and people die on the streets as people walk passivly by.

It’s preposterous that the flag of the most destructive proponent of western (mostly US) hegemony and imperialism is placed right there beside a pride flag with a peace sign!
Let’s use out combined power to stamp out this murderous, civilian-bombing and subjugating stain from the canvas (by extending the prideflag over it)!
Reminds me of when I was called The Real Fascist™ by the CEO of centrist liberalism themself @lemmy.world
Don’t forget that basically half the country thought the students deserved it…
Btw half of the students killed at Kent State weren’t even protesting, they were just there
