"Let every dirty, lousy tramp arm himself with a revolver or a knife, and lay in wait on the steps of the palaces of the rich and stab or shoot the owners as they come out. Let us kill them without mercy, and let it be a war of extermination."

Reply to Lucy Parsons on anarchists by An_Old_Big_Tree
"Anarchists know that a long period of education must precede any great fundamental change in society, hence they do not believe in vote begging, nor political campaigns, but rather in the development of self-thinking individuals."

Reply to Muhammad Ali on the draft by An_Old_Big_Tree
"I ain't draft dodging. I ain't burning no flag. I ain't running to Canada. I'm staying right here.
You want to send me to jail? Fine, you go right ahead. I've been in jail for 400 years. I could be there for 4 or 5 more, but I ain't going no 10,000 miles to help murder and kill other poor people. If I want to die, I'll die right here, right now, fighting you, if I want to die.
You my enemy, not no Chinese, no vietcong, no Japanese. You my opposer when I want freedom. You my opposer when I want justice."
~ Muhammad Ali

Reply to Angela Davis on Sex Work by An_Old_Big_Tree
"The sex industry should be decriminalized. (...) Its criminalization will help to draw more and more women into the prison industrial complex. There is a racist dimension to this process, since a disproportionate number of these women will be women of color."

if they're just concrete, and they look to be, you might be able to just knock them out with a sledgehammer too.

the bank would probably have to put more effort into finding a bench that doesn't come with some kind of 'fuck the poor' features nowadays.

"Disabled people don't exist to inspire non-disabled people or remind them life could always be worse. We are not props or feel-good stories or self satisfying acts of charity. We are people living our lives just like anybody else."
~Karin Hitselberger, writer and activist
kinda ironic to post an image of a quote instead of text, thus being inaccessible to anyone who uses a screenreader, when the quote is specifically about disability.

i'm really curious what rights that entails. i don't know enough (or anything really) about laws in saudi arabia, but i'd be surprised if it was anything more than a token gesture.
also, gods i wish people would stop trying to stuff robots in meat jackets. it never looks good. i barely look good in skin and i am in fact a human.

according to the moderation log, it was for "you arent going to start shit here", which doesn't really clear anything up. it seems ZB is convinced that sudo is trying to pull some kind of a coup by questioning their authority or something.

sorry, it looked like you were claiming they were requesting to become a mod of /f/ArmedLeft
them modding some other forums seems neither here nor there, if you ask me.

where did they request modship? you keep making these claims that they said things that i can't seem to find any evidence of. did it happen on another website or something? like, trying to give you benefit of the doubt here, but it really looks like you're the one stirring shit.

same. i'd recommend reading dungeon world even if you never play the game, if you GM, just for that.

Reply to What's your favorite RPG? by mofongo
in terms of tabletop games, most of my experience comes from d&d 3/3.5. it was basically all i cared about as a child. i've also got a fondness for the d20 system in general, as well as Pathfinder and GURPS. lately i've been most interested in FATE and PbtA games though, due to the ease of preparation for the GM and the relative ease of pickup for new players.
if we wanna talk video games, i don't actually play much, but fallout 4, skyrim, fable 2, and dragon warrior 3 are all standbys for me. i'm also a huge fan of /f/roguelike games.

Reply to comment by DeathToAmerica in Violent direct action without proper education and agitation of the masses is counter-revolutionary. by sudo
that seems like a rather defeatist attitude. i know for a fact it is possible to bring some people around, even in a dyed-in-the-wool neoliberal hellscape like the US.
like, if converting folks ain't your thing, fine, you do you, but it's not impossible, and trying seems at least a better use of ones efforts than just sitting on one's ass twiddling your thumbs and waiting to die because you think making any kind of change is impossible.
