Wel correctie van fout in artikel: Immigratie lost nooit de vergrijzing op omdat de "nieuwkomers" zich aanpassen aan het vruchtbaarheidsniveau van het land in kwestie én zelf ook "vergrijzen" waardoor de influx aan migranten continue moet zijn (met alle gevolgen vandien in de landen van herkomst).

The recognition of rivers, forests, or ecosystems as legal persons remains contested and far from mainstream.

Why should a corporate-built machine leapfrog into personhood before the living world (which sustains us) is granted the same dignity and protection?

We must continue to see recognition for what it is: counterinsurgency, a means to end Palestinian armed resistance and its struggle for total liberation… Palestinian liberation…is a paradigm… for the world. A gift so many of us are unwilling to receive…

Pretenders will try to take the empire’s seat, that’s why we mustn’t swap flags. We have the tools, remembrance and rehearsal. By remembering other systems that thrived before empire, and rehearsing their logics in the present, we weaken the monopoly of the hegemonic imagination.

@art4theark.bsky.social Here you go, a glimpse of what pluriverse could offer 😉

I would actually argue against universalism Why replace bad with worse? We need post-hegemonic politics and to step into a pluriversal horizon away from cycles of domination and ecological collapse It is sad that humanity seems incapable of conceiving a world better than the current self-destructive

Yes but the fall of US hegemony isn’t a tragedy and shouldn’t be seen as geopolitical. It’s exactly what the world needed. For decades it enforced a system of extraction, war & domination. Now the door is open to other futures that are ecologically sustainable, socially just, and culturally plural.

About the performative recognition by genocide enablers:

This terrorist “state” needs to be stopped. BDS won’t cut it, UN resolutions are a joke, international military force is what is needed!

Absolutely wild. Israel targeted and massacred 31 journalists and media staff in Yemen. The second-deadliest attack on journalists ever recorded. The Israeli regime is built on war crimes.

En toch. Het alternatief kan zijn: weigeren om nog deel te nemen aan deze schertsvertoning van anayse en tegenargumentatie.
Wat als dit het ultieme perspectief is? Epistemic refusal.
