lotesseWhy Movements Fail: Horizontalism and its discontents by Samantha Hancox-Li:"The idea was simply that [protest] tactics will create disruption and more importantly create spectacle, the spectacle would create more protest and more disruption, and then the implacable structural forces of history would take over — no need for any Leninist vanguard party—and move society forward."
MEASURE ONCE, CUT TWICE: IN DEFENSE OF SELF-HARM - full body autonomy and full communism now; cutters, unionize; for a wholesale rejection of psychiatry, addiction models, the DSM, and all systems of oppression by Adam D.H.: "Using the rhetoric of “mutilation” often proves itself very useful as a justification for social control, especially against populations that are already disenfranchised or judged unable to make their own decisions: children, women, trans people, disabled people. So many discussions about body autonomy revolve around defining what is and isn’t self-harm; which self-harming behaviors are allowed, if any; and if they aren’t allowed, what methods can be employed to prevent them. We must reject wholesale this distinction, this rhetorical dead-end; the parsing of any act committed by one person on their own body as inherently harmful, regardless of context, is a violation against body autonomy everywhere."
