    No one on this thread is ever gonna start a fucking revolution

    Well… I’m working on the whole revolution thing by advocating a new political theory of anarchism, that I hope will lead to a new sort of revolution. It’s called anarcho-antirealism. We advocate for a revolution in which the workers take back control of the means of perception from the capitalist media, alongside a material revolution for the means of production. But it’ll be decades before we can do much rebelling, so right now I’m focused on protecting our community and growing our movement through direct aid and local electoral change.

      Protecting the community, local elections, volunteering, and organizing/participating in protests is a great example of how to change institutions. You can make your neighborhood better, change the lives in big ways of those you can reach, and hopefully that impact spreads further than your local circle.

      People should be less focused on unrealistic and radical world shaping events (unless somehow the opportunity arises) and more on the small changes a single, ordinary human without connections or influence can make.

      By growing a cause in number, “revolution” sparks. Not through talking shit on Lemmy.
