Pyramid Lake is now a fully autonomous collective in Nevada. Hexbear users are sitting in their nice, air-conditioned, bedrooms while actual workers are out there building community support during a disaster. They are pooling resources, rationing, and helping one another survive. I thought the point was to have support, albeit critical, for AES, but I guess not. Burning Man is closer to Marx’s ideal socialist state than China ever will be.
Can we just defederate from them already? What is the point in continuing to exist with people who actively spew hatred and misinformation about our comrades in Nevada?
I apologize then.
On side note : both of the language am very familiar with aside from English are heavily gendered and it affects how i use language in my brain. A bit like how Russian people have two words for the light and dark shade of blue which made them faster at detecting difference in the shading of that color and according to some harder to learn the English word for blue due to the lack of this distinction.
Also , it’s important to note that In most of the gendered languages the masculine form is neutral and in my mind i wasn’t gendering you but just using a word used to call someone attention.
All this to say that i believe oneself shouldn’t bound it’s perception of self to language since there are thousands of languages all very different from each other and people coming from them to English are implicitly affected by their mother tongue and any other language they may know. Just be yourself in life and leave abstraction of ideas to be just that. If words can’t define you, they shouldn’t affect how you view yourself.
Sorry, if i touch a sensitive issue.
