i’ve been more captivated by the response to the “lesbian bar” drama than the facts of the drama itself. cause the drama itself is very average, if you’ve been around certain spaces. but this one broke containment and everybody trying to apply it to shit it don’t apply to.

“Sometimes people feel that calling the police is the only way to deal with problems. But we can build trusted networks of mutual aid that allow us to better handle conflicts ourselves and move toward forms of trans- formative justice, while keeping police away from our neighborhoods.”
alling the police often escalates situations, puts people at risk, and leads to violence. Anytime
you seek help from the police, you're inviting
them into your community and putting people who
may already be vulnerable into dangerous situations.

Once I got asked to a career day alongside another professional in a similar line of work. They were a very sincere and nice person, but came off very “Black entrepreneurialism” to me. We had three separate groups to talk to. Me being me, I distinguished my work as comin from an anarchist place.

If you’ve been on the pointy end of the police state, or just been reasonably politically conscious, for a while you’ll have the benefit of seeing the country newly outraged by old problems over and over again. Need to start writing shit on liberals like the movie Momento.

if you are a morally conscious person, then you understand "by any necessary means" is the only philosophical option for the oppressed if you are aghast & this seems extreme, then you dont really believe we live in a fascist empire. in which case, you just want more grace from common tyranny.
