About Me:
 
[Anarchism] presents the appearance, not of a swelling stream floating onto its sea of destiny...but rather of water percolating through porous ground-here forming for a time a strong underground current, there gathering into a swirling pool, trickling through crevices, disappearing from sight, and then re-emerging where the cracks in the social structure may offer it a course to run.
-George Woodcock

I'm a citizen agitator/propagandist who blogs, writes articles, participates in the Authority Smashing! Hour radio collective, and make videos here on Youtube concerning issues of domination and oppression, critiquing hegemony in all its forms, i.e., capitalism, the nation-state, heteronormativity, ageism, environmental destruction, ableism, culture, liberal revisionism, the tyranny of prison and the police, etc. etc. etc.

I identify with the anarchist principles of non-hierarchical social relations, cooperation, mutual aid, social revolution, communal and personal freedom, and a world free of authoritarian socioeconomic relations.

I think we have a great deal to learn from stateless societies, whether pre-stateless, or post-stateless; both still exist. Anarchy exists in real time, so it's not as if we who favor this state and social theory are working on a leap of faith. History shows empirically, time and time again, that human beings do not need formal governments or oppressive economic models to find harmony and survive.

Hence, I perceive that these stateless societies' economic relations, which center/centered around the idea of generosity, are the ideal, i.e., gift economies.

I specifically identify with anarcho-communist principles, which extends the traditional communist mantra to "To each according to her abilities and desires, to each her needs and passions."

I hope you enjoy the channel comrades.

Hey, liberty hater. Why do you hate liberty so much?

When you become detached mentally from yourself and concentrate on helping other people with their difficulties, you will be able to cope with your own more effectively. Somehow, the act of self-giving is a personal power-releasing factor. Cosmic smiles ...

You're welcome, Alex. I'll send a friend request through too. I'm fairly new to this.... do you know how I can comment on clips that I post on my channel and send out alerts about new ones? I've just added some videos showing Australian police brutality caught on CCTV.

nice to see a fresh face. There are so many Stalinists on youtube it makes me sick, even Lenin hated Stalin, he degenerated the workers state killed the rest of the party and millions of the workers. I think libertarian Socialists need to go on the offensive against Stalinists and state obsessed Leninists, they seriously drag us all down into the sterotypes idiots like Glenn Beck put us into.
