I think aiming for extinction is shortsighted and puts a lot of blame on humanity as a whole for the wrongs of colonialism.

But reducing our population, especially in countries with a larger carbon footprint (and not in developing countries as eco fascists would prefer) is a worthy goal.

Trucks used for transportation of goods are cool

Technically correct. Still missing the point.

Probably? I'm no expert but I always answer with just lower case without issue

Capchas aren't generally case sensitive though.

Really cool and interesting video!

I also thought the Fermi Paradox was kind of weirdly colonial.

Hell I don't even think we should be fucking with the Moon.

In a way, the job of a teacher or journalist is to filter useful and/or relevant information for interested parties.

I don't disagree with your point in general, but this doesn't make much sense:

If people suffer from the collapse of harmful machinery, it is the fault of the machinery.
No one would have collapsed it if it was not harmful.

A lot of people depend on machines to stay alive, machines that do produce harmful impacts around the world (that may or may not be possible to reduce), like advanced medical equipment that is dependent on semiconductors.

As a disabled person myself, I prefer if no one has to die.

 

I think it's an interesting work for solarpunks as it describes the blueprint for what is one of the most democratic and ecological societies around the world.

I have not read the entire PDF, but it seems to be at best a new version of the Zeitgeist Movement with more anarchist flavor, and at worse a pyramid scheme disguising itself as the former.

There simply isn't a good reason to use crypto for this kind of project, except if you want to make ir look technically advanced. I tend to be very skeptical if this.

Although, I hope I'm proven wrong.

Since we're talking game theory, a basic rule in any competitive game (from chess to League of Legends) is that focusing on loss prevention is a losing tactic.

We've been doing peaceful protest since the beginning of the environmental movement. It's not getting the goods and the earth is dying. What we need it's a diversity of tactics.

Am anarchist and never voted. I see voting as a very ineffective action at best.

With that being said, I don't vote because I have better shit to do. Not out of some principle or belief that I'm doing something effective by not voting.

I'm against taking part in a community based around refusal to vote, because the point of not voting should be passive. It should be "I'm already doing a lot of other more important shit to fight the State so why bother?" And not "I don't vote therefore I am having an impact".

Just like voting is damn near useless, organizing and campaigning around not voting is also pretty meh.

Edit: OP isn't doing a false flag. That's a pretty common view among anarchists. Especially offline.
