Order and Chaos

This is just some quick thoughts on the subject of order and chaos.

Both are mis-represented in todays ever so destructive culture. We are told order is a strong and respetable police force, and honorable military, and a democratic tolerant givernment. We are told this is desirable.

Chaos on the other hand is seen as destruction, murder, terrorism, and more.

Now, none of these definitions are wrong perse, but neither are right.

Order is a continuous singular pattern, while chaos is a lack of pattern. When you have a specific time you do something, be it everyday or week, that is order. There is a present pattern. When you dont do whatever activity at a specific time repeatedly, that is chaos.

It is a dichotomy, but a synthesis of the 2 is needed for anarchy. We need to find our own individual balance of chaos and order to be our true selves. When we subscribe ourselves in totality to one or the other we limit our actions to a pattern, or lack thereof.

Just some thoughts.

Introduction To The Mass

Isolates, bored, lonely. These 3 feelings are what the average worker and student feel everyday. From feeling societal pressure to work harder, to feeling you have nothing to do, and even missing warm touches and great laughs.

Walking and trudging along broken and beaten sidewalks, ignoring the houseless street kids harrasing you for change. So many of us busy bodies walking from point A to point B. Always having somewhere to go. Constantly spending money, we are walking capital! We are the extraction of our own labor. We are the means of production, because withoutus the factories and the offices would never exist.

We a mass, an isolated atom. When combined with others we form an object, the object of production. We exist only to keep capital flowing.

Now, this mass is not a singular mass, because production is not the only object of society. In society, otherwise known as modern civilization, exist 3 objects. The first being control.

The ruling mass is the object of control. They own our bodies and our souls. They dictate our wants and needs through social conditioning amd the placement of moral limits to our liberation.

The second Object is Production. This is known as the social mass. Constantly workering and studying. Wave after wave we enter the workforce with preconditioned mindsets of productjvity and value. We judge ourselves on a social level based upon our productivity. From grades to quotas we are the object of production.

The final object is the object of retaliation. This object is the healthy counter balance to the object of control. This mass is the emancipated mass. Seperate from the social mass. From communist, to bank robbers. We exist in a parallel conflict with the ruling mass. We are on the otherside of this ruling mass, with the social mass inbetween.

The ruling mass and emancipated mass are, as I said earlier, stuck in a parallel conflict. Since the rise of civilization we have seen this. Revolutionaries against the establishement, angry with way things are. Constanty clashing with the powers that be. Nobody ever winning, just waves of fighters heading to the barricades.

This is the reality of civilization. This is the organizational structure of our singular, meaningless existance. We are all the objects of civilization.

The only way out is symbiotic emancipation.

Now, this is a quick introduction to this current theory of mine. This is not a summary, nor a full explanation. So much more exist within this societal analysis.

What do you think? Are we a mass? Are we a class? Ask yourself.

Cracklemore here.

Me and echo apologize for very rarely updating this blog. This is a first time thing for us, an experiment if you will. We like writing, we like anarchy, why the hell is it so difficult?

Because we are alive in modern society, with social lives and responsibilities. From relationships to school we have task that need completion.

Recently my mother went to the doctors, and they found possible cancerous tumours. Obviously that is a blow to me, so that has greatly limited my writing, and general anarchistic activity and will continue to do so.

BUT new stuff is coming. I am finishing up my piece on the theory of the mass, while echo has posted several well done essays to theanarchistlibrary.org

Project wise we are getting ready to launch our free skool project, while also preparing for mayday.

We thank our readers, and our supporters for helping us grow and sticking with us through our unorganized hiatus.

Remember, when your bored and have nothing to do, you can always BLOW IT UP AND BURN IT DOWN

The Time Is Now: Our Super Fucking Late Annoucement

 So holy shit do echo, and I, apologize for waiting over a month to make this announcement! My laptop has been without internet and echo has been busy with school. SO without further adue, we present, The Space (name subject to change.

       In our city, houselessness is a problem. With the city attempting to please the yuppies in the pearl, to the police kicking the houseless out of their warmish spaces and letting them freeze to death. It's a problem nobody is attempting to solve through their own means, but of that of "organizations" and "the people." We say ENOUGH! The time is now, so lets fucking do it!

       Not only does this space include a houseless shelter, but a free skool and essentially a "safer space." Queer, Trans*, and non-able bodied houseless folks get treated like shit everywhere they go. From being denied services by the salvation army and other "christian" non-profits, but they face constant harassement and danger from the state and the alleged "people." We know no space can ever be 100% safe, but why not try? It takes effort, but go for gold.

    With those 3 things in mind, you are probably thinking "Holy shit that's alot of logistics, do you even have a space?" NOPE. We don't want to buy a space, we want to take one. So many abandoned buildings litter our communities, especially with the active threat of gentrification. Why not take one of these buildings and use it for what matters? We know the police and general state are viewing this, but fear not comrades, the time is now.

   The Insurrectionary scene is a joke. We pat ourselves on the back for alleged escalation of struggle, when in reality we have done essentially nothing. I respect those braver than me to risk prison time for smashing a window, or paint bombing a police car, believe me I do, but what does it do? It pats you on the back. I am not interested in patting myself on the back, but putting the city up against a wall. So with that we invite YOU to help us get this shit going!

  Saturdays at the Red And Black Cafe at 3pm, and 6pm we are meeting to plan this shit. The meetings however, are a new style of structure for planning (lacke thereof to be specific). No organizations will help plan this, only individuals. We are asking people to represent themselves and themselves only. We do not need to be united, or decide things on consensus to get this done, no. We must only need to put energy where we can. If you are good at getting folks interested, awesome! Lets talk about how we are gonna do that. If you are good at planning the logitstics of such a space, awesome! lets talk about it! We get so caught up in decision making processes and structuring of such groups that we get nothing done.

    This may end in a complete failure. Nobody may try anything and it just be echo and I. So many possibilities, no promises. All I can say is, why the fuck not?

Happy new years to everyone and I hope you all consider doing this in your own city, because the time is now!
