There seems to be something wrong with the act of imagining a better world
by which I mean, it doesn't work
@silby i mean, if you stop at imagining, yeah
@silby thank god we also have guillotines
@silby anyway like 'guillotines' means 'immediate and irrevocable transfer of power from the center to the margins of current society' w/ some limits and like....... there's some historical evidence that this ameliorates some problems.
@silby that's why i voted for the Teen Maoist Execution Squads
@silby for congress.
@silby i want every congressional representative to be a marxist teen.
@FStewartT that'd require a constitutional amendment or a bit of a relaxed definition of "teen"
@silby when the maoist teens come to power they'll amend the constitution so that ONLY teens can run for office
@FStewartT so, the campus activism lifecycle would be ported to the polity, I like it
@silby yeah bud i don't want any political movement to have a lifespan of more than five years.
@silby ideally all adults are functionaries of the teen-run bureaucracy
@silby we're just tasked with carrying out the marxist teen demands.
@silby i, for one, welcome my future doing paperwork and hard labor in a teen-directed combination urban collective farm and radical book/bikeshare
@FStewartT am I allowed to be detailed only to paperwork due to chronic illness
@silby i feel like the current maoist teens are pretty good on ableism, but i guess we'll see how the teens five years from now are
@silby or the semi-margins, lbr about who has access to the guillotines to start w/
