Anarchism is a social movement that seeks liberation from oppressive systems of control including but not limited to the state, capitalism, racism, sexism, speciesism, and religion. Anarchists advocate a self-managed, classless, stateless society without borders, bosses, or rulers where everyone takes collective responsibility for the health and prosperity of themselves and the environment.

Earthquake Faction

Name needs work, but I like the cut of their jib

we should probably be on the lookout for a big false flag.

Love the energy but it sounds like something in one of those generic shooters you find in bargain bins

this is how we make it sound cooler

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 28 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Maybe it sounds better in Czech?

Not really, reminds me of fracking or a video game

The Weather Underground crawled so the Earthquake Faction could blow the fuck up a weapons factory.

The genocide factory hummed along in peace.

Then the Fire Nation attacked 🔥🔥🔥

[–] SevenSkalls@hexbear.net 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Ooh this makes me want to play an Avatar: Last Airbender ttrpg campaign with like a group of based firebenders and colonized other benders doing Palestine Action type sabotage of their own/allied nation's war machine factories.

Jeong Jeong or Iroh could've been this, but he and the rest of the white lotus were so committed to inaction they just let the fire nation do whatever for a hundred years. Fuck whomever was killed or brutalized while Aang was frozen, I guess?

An Andor or Rogue One style prequel with the last Airbenders escaping the temples and using guerrilla tactics before being killedwould be pretty awesome, in a tragic, doomed rebellion kind of way.

The Order of Laghima Revolutionaries. Precursor to the Red Lotus.

Can we talk about how politically stupid Korra was? Zaheer is a cardboard cutout of an "anarchist". Amon is also just at as silly even if he is basically a white supremacists. Kuvira is every single Stalin trope imaginable.

Just back to back nonsense.

Kay and Skittles has literally a 4 part series on how silly and incoherent Korra's politics are. It's a very good watch

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ok I just finished watching this series, and god-damn, the politics are so much worse. I've seen this show maybe 3 times, but never watched with such a critical lens before. The last maybe two times I've watched this show it was mostly on in the background while other things were happening. They really did make fucking Avatar: The First Horseshoe Bender with this one. It gives me very little hope that the next Avatar show is going to be worth watching at all.

There is an interesting thing about the last season however, that I think Kay misses when talking about Kuvira, and I think it's even more damning of an assessment then what Kay gives it (and it's already very damning). One thing that always stuck out in my head was just how much they seemed to be invoking "Stalinist" vibes with Kuvira. One of the reasons I feel that way is the fact that they called the "camps" that dissidents were sent to "Reeducation Camps". As far as I know (and I could be wrong), but the notion of a "reeducation camp" is a purely anti-communist trope. Another thing that drives home the Stalin idea is the fact that the "Earth Kingdom" is exactly that, a Kingdom, a Monarchy which has now fallen and in its wake a new, hyper industrialized nation is being born in its wake.

Kuvira unites the Earth Kingdom via her train rails. Connecting towns and cities together with massive infrastructure. She purges political dissidents to "reeducation camps" (communist) which turn out to be "forced labor camps" (fascist, but also communist, in the eyes of liberals). It's not a movement born out of an election process like the Nazis, but born out of the transition from Feudalism, born out of force and coercion, something Communists are often accused of. I know there are more parallels to be drawn here, but searching the internet shows me I'm not the only one who sees this:

So, in this way they're really driving home the idea that these two things, Socialism and Fascism, are really not that different. They're doing the whole "Totalitarian Twin" trope by picking and choosing the words they use to describe the things Kuvira is doing. If these Reddit dorks could identify that the show is telling you that Stalin and Hitler were basically the same, then I'm sure every young person with a basic elementary history education will make the same connection.

This might be a show I actually have to put on a shelf for when my kids are older, so I can more easily combat the pretty filthy narratives wrapped up inside this show.

Palestine Action was always going to spread and get spicier.

I wonder if this is what data centers will look like in the future? They seem to be universally despised.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 12 points 6 days ago (2 children)

you can't start fire as easily for data centers nor people near them that based (due to being us-ians).

you need like to sabotage fire suppression systems or alternatively disturb the electric power supplies in non-obvious fashion to safety systems

[–] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 10 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

nor people near them that based (due to being us-ians)

Palestine Action are from nonce island and still based. If it's possible there, it's possible anywhere.

[–] Dr_Pepper@hexbear.net 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

A monstrosity that poisons everything around you and produces noise pollution 24/7 will be very radicalizing.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 7 points 6 days ago (2 children)

No, but i mean electronics doesn’t burn, by design, so to fuck it (as i see it) you have to either blow through several fuses (thus bypass power supplies safeties at least), spread corrosive/salty liquids (non trivial in a short amount of time) or physically destroy them either by thermite or some drills (again, non trivial amount of time, although prepared thermite might be viable to fuck a rack). They are very tamper-proof is what im saying.

Too bad there is about to be a major nitrogen fertilizer shortage.

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Fertilizers are a meme and have never been used properly, at least not that i know of

Ah i remembered, allegedly, dense graphite dust is electronics bane

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

i thought the only reason anyone knows about oklahoma city was a fertilizer bomb?

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Oh yeah, i was remembering wtc and checked and they used some kind of weird offshoot with liquids annd modifications. Oklahoma was exactly what i was thinking off, both in scale and composition. I more meant, in a sense, unless one goes that big, fertilizers are a nonsensical solution both in power and traceability, cells just as frequently used stolen mining equipment or military repurposed stuff. Anyway, something that big is not easy to deliver to data center, nor easy to shape correctly from outside, and smuggling one ton of stuff inside seems like futile

If I were to further fantasize about data center, i think and suspect datalinks are the weakest and situated outside entrypoint, where one needs a shovel, an angle grinder to delete optic fiber shield, it takes 2 weeks to reassemble everything back and setup server links, which is fine when prep stuff is literally household items not triggering any search sniffers and possibility to evade also very real

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 16 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

upon finagling tor: (a) the videos are nice, seems mainly office incendiary action (b) they have xmr donations for further actions

[–] Ildsaye@hexbear.net 12 points 6 days ago

Love to see it
