We’ll have to do dinner Thursday night instead.
I'm lacking the energy to fill in between bullet points so this is going to be a bare bones kind of thing. I'm thinking about strikes. I'm thinking about sustaining them. I'm thinking about how there's already an established logistical model for food distribution outside of the capitalist framework (in the form of operations like Food Not Bombs, as the first example that comes to mind) but I'm not aware of anything like that for food production. I'm thinking about how my time in the infantry taught me that supply lines are worthless without supplies.
1. A strike is far more likely to succeed if it's backed up by a strike fund.
2. A general strike will not have that critical component available if carried out in our current social order.
3. A federation of mutual aid networks can function as a de facto strike fund.
Therefore 4. I need to radicalize and organize with other "small farmers" in my area to lay a foundation for what we called "sustainment of force" operations when I was a grunt.
There's a lot more to it that I hope to be able to add to this but for now this is a placeholder.
I just got described as an "ad hating commie" by someone because I said a minute of youtube ads is unpleasant. fully spent 5 minutes arguing and defending youtube ads. insane stuff
I am making this post for Dina and Ahmed Alanqar's family in Gaza @anqarfamily. They have four young children: Zeina, Eileen, Yamen, and their littlest daughter Sawsan, born just this past June. They have been multiply displaced at this point, with their homes and workplaces destroyed by Zionist bombs, and have been facing the difficulties of a scarcity and/or lack of work, schools, healthcare, food, water, and medicine, along with the everpresent threat of disease, ever since.
This fundraiser's objective is to provide them with sufficient funds so that when the opportunity arrives, they will be able to leave Gaza. Please, if you are able, donate! And regardless of your situation, make sure to share this post! I would like to see the notes on this eclipse the number of votes on the poll, unlike an unfortunately high quantity of other posts like this one, and for Dina and Ahmed to receive as many donations as possible!
This is a vetted fundraiser, listed as #264 on this speadsheet of verified fundraisers created by @/nabulsi and @/el-shab-hussein.
They are close to their goal, let's help them reach it!
what if this humanization of an animal or object was a skinny white woman that is my original idea
