Eddington really got under his skin.

Enthralling question.

I don’t really know.

But perhaps, a large[st] part, abuses by authorities. [And being smarter/wiser than some “teachers” etc., probably too.]

… And that’s not viable to recommend.

I shall be looking for more purely positive "What made you become an anarchist?"s.

Though as I type that, I see again the “made you”. Made me? I wonder how much did I choose, and how much was I made to be an anarchist…

Exposure to anarchist thought (~ not mere academic and literary, but real world), surely healthier.

Where can we buy fridges from the right region of France to have our cheese keep longer?

Yes any government COULD do this but there would be loads of red tape and negotiating with manufactures. Chinese manufactures have no choice, they ship surveillance software when they are told to or they don’t get to sell internationally.

Just China?

“Fuckin’ with your cash is the only thing you kids seem to understand!”

with anti vaccinators

with any-vaxxers.

Many with IBS and other ailments, do call 30 minutes a long journey without a toilet. Many are not mobile to such speeds, and it would take them hours. So if there are no facilities, this bridge is ableist and exclusionary.

Seeing this, I see why they’re getting rid of juries in the UK.

Stuff like the Magna Carta, no longer “the foundation of the freedom of the individual against the arbitrary authority of the despot”, now just toilet paper.

We are in a lot of trouble. We can still mend this.

The UK state has tried to suppress jurors’ awareness of their legal right to ignore judges’ directions and legal arguments and to acquit based on conscience.

Since attempted to get rid of juries entirely.

A lot of trouble. This is not what democracy looks like. Deeply.

Does it have public toilets dotted along the long journey?

we can sublimate to better yet.

side note, seeing this again in passing…

Eco-Anarchism

If on that corner of the political compass, wouldn’t it be eco-archism? Haven’t they mislabeled themselves? Supremacy of the fittest and all that nonsense.

In most tiling window managers I have both tabbing and fullscreen. Which in my use, tends be fullscreen most of the time. Switching workspaces with a keybind’s instant, contrast to the faff of alt-tabbing or moving windows around with the mouse. It’s just one more thing to get out of the way of brain ideas coming to fruition. ;)

Can always have windows floating/stacked in most tiling window managers too.

As I was reading the other replies there, I couldn’t help think of the OP title…

fascinating subjects worth looking in to

You say you get it, but nothing you said after the “but” corroborated the claim.

Was not playing devil’s advocate [nor non-playing advocating]. Was not defending. Was satirically pointing out the folly of becoming them; the folly of opposaming; the folly of arrogantly presuming what to impose in ignorant lack of introspection unto hypocrisy; the folly of fear driven reactions that drive a social tragedy of the commons blind race to the bottom into kakistarchy. Can’t defeat Nazism from here. Can create it.

The principle espoused seems sound though. Same as how to deal with any/all totalitarians. That being to keep speaking out and stopping their madness, or it gets worse and worse, where any and all atrocities are seen as necessary virtues. I’m not sure how sending them to echo chambers to go on festering ever worse, unchallenged, serves this necessary avenue of remedy.

Better the monster you can see. Better the Daryl Davis approach, proven to convert people out of monstrosity, than to try to out-monster the monsters. Not having a bigger hammer was not the problem with the hammer being the only tool in the toolbox.

Man, its one thing to be arguing for slippery slope (which is literally a logical fallacy, meaning it shouldn’t be used in an argument),

A slippery slope fallacy is a fallacy, but there are still slippery slopes that are not fallacious.

stonetoss either promotes, or genuinely believes a number of neo-nazi views. To me, thats enough that I dont think his comics should be cross posted here.

How might they be exposed to ideas to challenge their ideas and broaden their perspective? While exposure here may not offer a direct line, and may seem like more advantage to the spread of their ideas than them being exposed to ideas that challenge their ideas, it may at least expose more people to see their ideas, and, presumably, be of sound mind enough to not only not succumb to them, but perhaps go forth to offer counter-arguments and refutations and exposing fallacies and harms of their ideas.

Impressive. Same age as the youngest to ever do fusion. Jackson Oswalt.

Apologies, I did not read the whole piece.

I stopped part way through, when a vision of blind men and an elephant sprang to mind, making the article seem redundant (and verbosely so).

Debian

Or Devuan or AntiX.

:)

I also have a pretty beefy old PC at home, but it’s currently damaged (I think either the motherboard or the PSU is dead, I didn’t diagnose yet).

Same

Though mine’s been dormant for so long, it wont be so beefy in a couple years.

[Edit, PS:

Week 1 was a good read too.

How long before you’re trying tiling window managers?

Vitamix.

Tested as >180 visual intelligence, I know.

Though that I’ve pressed the backspace key over 20 times writing that^ line… yuh, dyslexic.
