You do realise I am Australian don't you champ? Born QLD - Brisbane Women's Hospital 1966. It's just that you keep posting ludicrous and completely unrelated links to things occurring in the US right now including images that really only act to inflame racial division? For example, why an image of a black man kicking a white man while he is on the ground? The semiotics are loaded and perhaps express your racial and potentially racist leanings. For example, a more recent image of a white man knocking out a black woman and then getting his ass kicked by a black man who went to her defence could have been posted. Also images of the proud boys - a self professed white supremacy group who support the racist /bigot/xenophobic/misogynistic Donald Trump - armed to the teeth with semi autos may have been more appropriate to describe the shit show of the divided states ex President Trump has created during his ill-fated far too long four year presidency - a one term President whose ousting has restored my faith in the US voter/people. Why you are posting these images is somewhat beyond me. We are talking about Australia buddy and not the US. As for cock blocking I refer to the PM you sent me. Would you like me to post it for all to see? This is getting very long winded and again is a circular and now pointless debate. As for countries that aren't under mass surveillance - there are plenty of them. That's the problem with Australia mate. People like you who try to justify the actions of the scumbags running the country while all the time tossing off about being an anarchist who clearly knows nothing about anarchy and the ideological spectrum. Australia, the clever country Duh!
Do you mean the first PM, when I say let's not do this, cos it will look like shit?
That one is cock blocking you?
And no, from your posting I didn't guess that you were born in Australia, or that you were that age.
If you don't love it, leave it, so I'll respect you for that.
I don't get your distopian fantasy where you hope the world slips over the edge, and poeple start killing others for fun
I guessed you were some kid playing war games in your mind
Can you name one of these many developed nation that doesn't have over surveillance by the state now, or won't in the near future? You reckon there is many, so naming one should be easy enough.
As to what anarchy is, and isn't, maybe just google it.
It's not just about a position on a political spectrum somewhere.
The way I explained it is totally valid.
Without rulers.
That is the word in Lattin, so I don't get how you think my explanation is so far wrong
As to the photo of political expression I posted.
Yeah, I could of used a more recent pic than the one I did, I guess.
But seeing as though I picked that one fresh yesterday and posted it yesterday...
You reckon I should of used one that shows a black guy kicking a white guy on the ground, but also that I am revealing I'm a rascist for showing a black guy kicking a white guy on the ground, so I don't really get that.
And yes it's a picture of a proud boy who pushed his luck.
A bully taking his medicine.
The reason I chose that picture is because I was surprised by what happened in Washington a day and a bit ago.
That that group would, many protected in body armour and armed, attack their fellow countryman.
I detest who they are, and what they stand for, an apparent domestic terrorist group, and how that is cancerous to their society, and to the wider world by the example they set.
The picture was chosen more about the guy's politics than the colour of his skin.
I couldn't find a picture of any black proud boy getting stomped, could I, so the rascism charge is crap.
The picture was chosen because the guy who pushed his luck, did exactly that, pushed his luck
He went to Washington to promote and conduct violence, but unfortunately for him, rather than taking easy shots, it looks like he bit off more than he could chew.
They casually threaten to conduct civil war, as if that is a desired outcome.
So the way he wants it, is the way he got it
That's why I chose that picture
Pretty much how you keep calling for Australians to rebel in an amed revolt, and quote Benjamin Franklin 200+ years ago as if that somehow means anything today.
Open your eyes please glow.
What is happening in Australia regarding surveillance is happening all over the globe.
If it is not so open, it is still there.
Security camera and algorithm is everywhere, and no government would chose to offer privacy over control (security)
I don't think a violent revolution around the world is possible, for a start, or desirable.
Just ignore the government and build a life worth living, through developing and strengthening your chosen community, as much as possible ( sounds silly, but killing each other in the streets is more valid?)
It's just the luck we have to be running around on the earth at this time, where technology will allow what is basically human nature.
To snoop on, and try to control your fellow, especially by government, is eternal.
It's just we are the ones around when it became possible to the degree it is a threat to society as we know/knew it.
And I don't think i'm surrendering to see that it is an inevitable outcome.
With chip insertion for bio-reading, and the ever increasing capacity of wifi, it would be easy to guess that in the very near future people will be inserted with chips, and communicate with each other peer to peer.
They are already rolling out the tech, with ppl having ATM capable RFDS chips inserted now.
Add to that research done in brain activity, where a computer can basically understand what you are thinking by reading your brain wave activity and which parts of your brain are active. As soon as they can shrink that technology, do you think that won't be utilised as a tool of social control?
So I fear for liberty hard.
I can see a time, very soon, where the whole world will become enslaved by technology being developed now, let alone what's around the corner.
To enforce a peace that removes mans' dignity and choice
Where a thought could be considered a crime.
But I don't think fantasising openly here, about putting an axe into someone's head is the remedy
And that is why I asked you not to.
Please be aware of the energy you are putting out
Please don't offer that civil war is some noble remedy to a problem that won't be solved so easily
Not censorship.
Not blocking your cock.
A reminder that this site is basically a resource for cannabis users/growers
It is a very deep resource containing a massive amount of recent history in the seed and now grow industry, and a massive resource for canabis husbandry.
Can we please not taint it by exposing it to the endless and petty polarisation that seems to be taking over the world.
So my appeal to you was direct anarchy, as I see it.
I don't petition the moderators to control you, because I thought that was an answer, I didn't pertition authority to control by a law.
I asked you to understand an ideal, and act upon it
To strengthen community here
It is painful for me to see the outcome of totally free speach
I don't believe in repression, and am very anti-authority, but total freedom of speech normalises the worst aspects of human nature, and indoctrinates and radicalises people
Look how society had been radicalised in these last 5 years, with no possible end in sight.
And that concern for any possible balance that would suit society outweighs by far any concern I have for my own personal freedoms.
I can see that humanity is in for a shit ride going forwards way off into the future, as far as anyone can see.
The whole world, but that's just my nihilism creeping in.
So I asked you to respect this is a gardening site, run and maintained by a man who doesn't appear to engage in political fomentation himself.
I've let him down as much as you, and in fact more so.
Becuase I'm aware of how destructive this bickering is, and how anti it appears to what I think Shanti's purpose of the site is.
But if all you see is me censoring some right you think you have to get your cock out....
