prolly not. the money situation is past desperate here, and i have to focus on a possible move to the west coast.

and that's something that i have been talking about lately too. the way the US is spread out, it's so hard to build a movement for the simple fact that travelling across the country by anything other than plane takes DAYS. we can connect and share ideas and strategies via the internet, but anything that takes an actual physical presence (protests, meeting other activists, etc) can be so prohibitively expensive that you're done before you begin.

Yea it can be expensive. However.. if I still remember your political views.. it cannot be too hard to make the networking happen :)! I have had about a dozen anarchists crash on my couch in the past couple months. If you ever hit the west coast (BTW my comma button is shite on this keyboard where I am typing) there are some really cool activists that are organized and do alot of proper stuff :D

so, um, out of all the people here who want to "fight the power" and "act local" - what are you doing? What kind of actions have you taken to fight the system? Do you volunteer at a soup kitchen?

@ claw: are you an american? maybe in vegas they do...

suppose that answers my question right there. whos next? This wasnt aimed at parson specifically. Everyone! Lets fight the system from our swivel chairs! lets get on the 'net' and hack the gibson! we're techno-anarchists!

or maybe we're just complacent. its cool though, just watch another google video - its a great way to show people how involved you are, and if they dont believe you, just give them some useless facts about sacred geometry, ley lines, or energy transferrence. if they dont understand, then they're obviously not ready to evolve!

Big up the "im raising my vibration by sitting on my couch smoking a spliff" crew...

Seriously, quit your political theorizing and do something for a change. Otherwise, if your not gonna do shit besides read a few books, watch some videos and form an "educated" opinion, then shut the fuck up. :wink:

this goes for the OP and everyone else on here who's apart of the intellectual crusade.

there's a whole fuck load of not participating that counts as action

for instance not taking part meat industry
