That's right. That's the reason I shared content about why we have our position.

Just a clarification:

You will not be called a "bootlicker" because you support think cops are there to protect you. That's something reasonable to believe.

You will be called a "bootlicker" because you are in support of the state, which defends the interest of those in power (aka. political class, "the rich," bourgeoisie, etc) and its soldiers, which are cops.

I mean no harm; I'm not calling you a "bootlicker." You are a decent human just sharing your experience. I want to bring "the other side" perspective in a friendly way. I was thinking like you until I was at the other end of their macanas for helping other decent people.

The ACAB is a widespread movement in South America and has good reasons to exist since it is adjacent to Antifa. But the overall reason to hate cops is based on the argument that I explained before in a very brief way.

Since I abide by the movement, I invite you to check it out so you can engage more deeply in the conversation. For a starter, I may interest you in:

  • The excellent channel of Philosophy Tube (that has some fascinating videos of other topics, 10/10) and her video about How Police Make Up The Law (ft. LegalEagle) or this one Violence & Protest. Her work is highly focused on going in-depth to help you understand the arguments about various positions, such as philosophical dialogs, with a bit of theatrics to keep it interesting.
  • Or if you are shorter on time and are up for some more humor, check out Thought Slime video about "All Cops are Bad" where he navigates the subject.

And sorry for not sharing other voices outside the anglosphere who cover the topic. It is just that they don't speak English, so we can't understand each other.

Take care, fellow stranger.

I'm with you in this one. The more I learn about internet privacy, the more I distance both.

Sure, here are some examples:

As you may imagine, they aren't finding their way to exist easy. But they sure are having success in learning how to create a horizontal society.

Yeah, is a bad deal.

But that's not the point, the point of this approach is that like in cooperatives, there are minimum productivity goals and many roles to play, and so on. Obviously like you point out, no one is that stupid.

Now, consider the needs of people who are old or need help. Like helping your old man, I'm sure you don't mind getting more apples. I wouldn't. Like you, I would get angry if I'm the only useful one hahaha, but that what productivity and organization is for. No one lives in a bubble.

Now... What you said, I've seen it happen in capitalism. Not in small businesses, normally the owner is in the store too. I mean when we talk about the big bucks like a better example. They expect you to handle of those apples, and ain't offering you a comfy home neither.

Soon your crew will be serving sandwiches named after me (8)

It depends, in a privacy-conscious way or as an investment? Because in the first term, Monero is totally cool for privacy. Because as an investment, en general crypto is ... 😅

Totally agree, hence, the need for organized non-institutional action 😉. In institutional terms, the difference between a bunch of eco-anarchist and eco-terrorist is pretty nebulous to say the truth!

I would suggest to, first, join your local Eco-social organizations. Normally the "take a gun a shoot a motherfucker" approach, while very satisfying to say, it's usually way less effective than organize with your community.

And while we are on destroying it, making a greener and more tolerant one 😀 🍃 🏳️‍🌈
