This is what happens when you don’t aggressively kill, sometimes on a daily basis, the part of you that was indoctrinated to be impressed by and enamored with power and its many affirmations. So ridiculous.

I’m a stubborn cranky anarchist about every single elected official and always will be. I got shit for it when AOC first won office and time has only ever validated my position. Every politician is there to co-opt your power and energy: that’s their role in the system.

E.P. Thompson: "History is a cultural form within which we fight and many have fought before us. Nor are we alone when we fight there for we are historians because we know that the past is not dead, inert, and confining, but is strong with energies which can brought once again to our side."

Western governments have made it clear that they do not care about human rights and the rule of law when it comes to people of colour, the global majority. They spit on humanity. 500 years on from the beginning of the European colonial project and they have hardly changed in this regard.

Liberation for children and youth will never ever come from The Family, which is the site of an overwhelming majority of violence against them. It is an institution that cannot be reformed. It is a project of control, isolation, and enclosure.
