Qua?

I let Juneteenth go by while in my own state of bliss. I tried to ignore what wasn’t going to happen, what already came and went, and what I had no chance to enter from afar. Plus, I was striking and refused to engage in anything “job-related”, although I’m a great worker.

But today I have to write about censorship, special interests, and anarchy. I’ve reached my limit on those demanding and forcing respect through power or strength. I need people who know. I will fuck Zuckerberg up! But I will fuck anyone up who strongarms, any man, woman, child, dog or virus alike. I’m not kidding, and I have the tools to do it. I’m also justified in my actions, irrespective of my secrets.

I do love when reactionaries jump onto red wagons and debate highly-technical and often dialectically-misunderstood anarchic ideology. The rhetoric stinks. People call out a few names, but no one ever really debates the theories unless they’re in special circumstances as part of a highly choreographed academic platform. Let’s take Marx. Have you read Das Kapital or Communist Manifesto? I did when I was 22, along with most other anarchic-related texts. Isn’t that what Marx ultimately envisioned? Yet he outlined dystopian and economic operations. But Kropotkin, Bakunin, and Proudhon as the originators falls short. Nonetheless, attach Godwin, Warren, Sacco & Vanzetti, Goldman, de Cleyre, Novatore, Stirner, Bookchin, Bey, Leary, Negri, Crimethinc Collective, and all the nameless, anonymous communiques and acts since the beginning of forced socialization. I’m not communist or socialist (or democrat, republican, capitalism) and syndicates fail, just as unions do. The only true expression is anarchist, and without all the layering (capital, society, community, democracy, republic), you’re left with individualism. So why not rather than argue over ways to approach organizing, don’t we agree to function as such with at least one basic principle? No one has more power over another.

Imagine if every disagreement that was about to lead to bodily harm or eventual death - violation - would immediately be broadcast worldwide for the world to see, and at that point “Leviathan” and such becomes apparent. I mentioned WE ARE PANOPTICON, as my brother, Berlin and Arendt introduced to me, and that is this anarchic principle. If all eyes were on you when that motive became apparent, whether through impassioned, direct action, or calculated, vicarious delegation (and identifiable via neuroimaging), would you still engage? Would the gap be minded? Would Freire’s conscientizaçao be realized? Ping elapsed and we’d finally catch back up with biological time, our biorhythm no longer circa-secundian, but circadian? How wonderful that would be!

I once had a great friend who is now a friend, who is one with such a touched heart and mind. Happy Summer Solstice!
