I don't get the point of trying to start a national trend of calling Trump a chicken. Are you trying to goad him into following through with the worst of his plans? I'm glad whenever he chickens out I want him to chicken out MORE, not less.

No one knows how to get out of this version of fascism, no one knows what will catch on and work if anything at all. So I don't condemn anything that people want to try. I think violence is hard to define and too many protesters try to self police each other. Also after going to protests for many years I think it's a mistake to mold your actions on media optics. The media will never fairly tell your story, if they tell it at all. It's better to try to actually make change on the ground (direct action) than to do symbolic acts hoping for media attention. Just my 2 cents. But again, even these symbolic acts are better than nothing, and I won't criticize anyone who is trying something.

Yes I agree bartering is mostly as you describe. I only want to point out that economies are not only bartering, and that no one should ignore the authoritarian nature of how a "market economy" is formed and maintained.

Market economies have authority from the very beginning. You have to take land and resources away from people communally using them, and then keep them from using them again with soldiers or police.

Hope everyone here in the USA pays attention to this!

It's still a win for Trump. He can ignore the courts like he always does and then throw out votes he doesn't like because they were "illegal".

[–] kriz@slrpnk.net 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Still dangerous even if challenged. First, he ignores any court orders. Second, when "elections" come around he can say blue states didn't follow the law and throw out their votes.
