  • read Erich Fromm - Escape From Freedom

    it’s about being the side which lets people escape loneliness anxiety doubt by submitting to authority and dominate an “other”

    that silences anxiety doubt and gives certainty. comfort > truth, to the person who can’t stand alone. blending in to a uniform collective is life on easy mode.

    ours is the side which asks people to sit with that doubt anxiety loneliness and emerge a freethinker; scrutinize, examine, no easy way out; no authority to accept all from uncritically. as a freethinker in sweden said, “without doubt one is mad.” - Tage Danielsson.



















  • it doesn’t fit into your worldviews that both Palestine-Israel and Ukraine-Ruzzia are bad?

    Fuck the Ruzzia, more of Russia.

    Fuck Euro-cocksucking-their-american-pa, more of Europe.

    Critique of both, not one bad over the other bad. Here is critique of europe in this video from a previous finance minister with serious organizational force today. Are you gonna deflect what he’s saying about the EU to glorify dogmatically? and ignore the parts of current regimes that can rule better just to re-militarize and debt-trap and lose European worldstanding? Unpatriotic Treason and warmongering.



  • critique is not destruction??

    this is literally pointing out what’s wrong with shit and why

    can you even imagine a world of peace? because only seeing enemies in any country anywhere is the result of fearmongering and warmongering. here Yanis doesn’t generalize countries as enemies. do you hate every Russian person and Chinese person? ofcourse not, i hope! so what about liking every person born in europe? likewise!

    what matters is the dialogue to argue important matters on road to pushing away the bad and lifting up the good in every nation state. here Yanis’ critique is patriotic to EU in the way intellectuals are patriotic: “look at the bad shit that has happened and understand it to avoid more of it while helping citizens of EU countries in this crisis.”

    or are you humans who downvote in an echo chamber where uncomfortable conversations feel threatening?
