so i was emailing with an old friend last week and he was asking me about my feelings on anarchy. i figured it might fit in with this here blog, so this is what i responded with.have you seen this?
take the test and see where you are. i am apparently more extreme than gandhi. it's not a left vs. right thing, it's not a straight line. my
results are attached.
i would love to see real socialism/communism but i realize people have a problem with this because it can seem to leech out the creativity from a
people. i get that. and i do love the diy. seeing that capitalism isn't going to fall any time soon, i am all for taking advantage of the system and evening the score as much as possible.
when i say i am an anarchist, i mean that i am against aligning myself with any sort of system. i refuse to buy in, or to be sold, to a belief system. i am ultimately aiming for freedom from want. i refuse to be herded into a job i don't want, just for the money, so i can buy shit i don't need. none of that is important, it's just there to keep the system going. to perpetuate capitalism, the creation of money.
i am not working for anyone's validation. i don't need society to approve of me. i work outside of, below the system. i work for the uni, i pay my bills, but my mind is free. i am not a bought woman. in this way, i am completely free to think, do, feel, as comes naturally. i am uncorrupted. pure. money, status, looks- none of that shit matters. all that matters is your experience of the world. are you pushing yourself to be more than you are? how open are you to experience? and how satisfied are you that you are taking advantage of your life?
rules, laws are created by men, for the governing and control of man. they are supposed to represent us all, but they will never represent me- my needs, my ideas, my outlook. therefore, they do not apply to me. i have no reason to fear them, to abide by them. the law is just another man, one whom you let be in control of you. no one controls me. i make my own decisions. i am fearless. do you get it?
i think if all the banks fell and we had a new depression. it would be awesome. it would be the beginning of a new day. everyone back at zero, everyone as equal. we could start something new, something beautiful. we could use all that we have learned, we could be so much better than this. because we really are equal. who says one person is better, bigger, more important than someone else? money. power. greed. status. celebrity. all of that is meaningless bullshit. don't let it control you. don't let it own you. if you do, you are giving up your life. letting society at large take the wheel from you. it's your life, fucking live it!
