Yesssssss, that was a grand example of a #collectiveaction
Like the #beachbody campaign destruction in, #London , I think it was?
We are cuddling the machines that track and destroy us… But sometimes some of us stop

Last Sunday, I had the privilege to see Attenborough's "Our Story" in the Artis Planetarium. The experience nudged me on an intertwined train of thought.
The short film is a quick overview of the rise of our species - how we grew from an animal trying to survive to a powerful collective that exerts vast influence over the planet that birthed us. It was a lovely way to celebrate Attenborough's 100th birthday, as one of the treasured people of mankind. His message of hope drew a parallel between how we saved the great whales from almost certain extinction through shared global effort, and our power to make a difference as long as we work together. We, he says, are living in one of the most important historical times. And indeed, our times will be regarded as some of the most important in history books hundreds of years from now... Assuming we'll have the liberty of open science.
A day before the screening, I witnessed something that rhymed with Attenborough's message. The inauguration of Hungary's new democratic government, led by Péter Magyar, took place in Budapest, the first after years of Viktor Orbán's authoritarian rule, which had systematically dismantled judicial independence, press freedom, civil society and committed countless other crimes.
A few very powerful moments happened in Parliament last Saturday. Hungary's new sovereignty was established through the uncompromising affirmation of democracy. The building of transparent and independent accountability mechanisms was explained, and the perpetrators of the sunsetting kleptocratic regime were literally looked in the eye and brutally shamed before an entire nation and the world. (You should watch the various ceremonies and discussions online if you have the time.) Most importantly though, the new prime minister called on Hungarian citizens to watch their political servants, work towards common goals despite the polarising scars that divide and conquer tactics left on the social fibre, and to look for the best in each other. This triangle of active ethics is essential, and I will come back to it.
Attenborough's call for collective care for our Mother Earth is the most important message of our lifetime. Hungary's citizens demonstrated the truth of this message and what collective will can do.
But the real work begins now.

»“The sound of drones is so heavy and present on a daily basis in Gaza,” artist C. Caycedo told ARTnews after the action. The song and the humming were meant “to bring to the Biennale a little bit of the reality that people in Gaza suffer every day, and resist every day.”
Another artist-participant (…) told (…) “The Biennale is normalizing …

Something I don't think people understand well that I feel like needs to be shared around: human logistics is important.
(Topics and language used limited to be less likely to be banned on corporate platforms, especially since I shared this on facebook)
This is the answer to basically every "Why aren't we doing anything?" topic.
If it requires people in groups, especially large groups, to do something then it runs into human logistics.
People are a chaotic bunch and lives are complicated, we do a lot of individual things... but if we need to do something together then it runs into complicated lives and chaotic thoughts/feelings.
If you've ever organized a D&D game or even just a board game night, you're well aware how hard it is to get people to coordinate and commit... now imagine if you try to organize this and people drop out, you and everyone involved go to prison and your families suffer...
So while it seems simple that people just need to do this thing together to solve a problem... it won't happen until either the immediate cost of not doing it becomes worse than failure or until a leader emerges that addresses the problems keeping people from joining and coordinates the group to act in unison.
The reason why the "You just need to solve this by voting!" crowd is in the wrong is because success there means organizing far far more people than any other means of fixing things. And there's already another organization leading that charge... poorly, so you've got to organize and lead so well that you drown out the multi-billion dollar political machine that's biggest interest is in shutting you down...
...and again, failure means things get worse. (See "Spoiled Election" if you want to learn more about this specific case)
And all of this is just the "lives are complicated" side of things, the "people are chaotic" side is also a hurdle. So many people agree something needs to be done, but if everyone insists it must be done a different way then it's not going to get done (ie. you get enough people to show up to your game night, but you fail because everyone spends the entire time arguing over what game to play)
So the takeaway of this is two things:
1) you're not going insane, you're just unfamiliar with human logistics and the ideas you've been taught have been carefully sanitized to erase the logistics so you're less able to repeat them (great example see Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boycott and how many of us were taught about the protest groups organizing carpools so people could still fulfill necessities while boycotting)
2) if you're charismatic you can start organizing efforts, you may not lead the big effort but you can get things started and you're critical to stopping the infighting by keeping everyone on the goal.Permission granted and encouraged to reshare or copy/paste, no credit needed.

I'm kinda militant in my active #decolonization ways. Not like militant in hurting people ways - the cops/government/sellout fucking enablers hold the ongoing shitbucket awards/monopolies on that kinda inhumane crap.
I mean militant in planning ahead, being well organized, being strategic/tactical & forming mini regional resistance action groups/volunteer civilian armies - working in solidarity, in urban & more remote/non-urban places. Every single person doing their part 👊❤️#AnarchistNetwork #AnarchoSocialist #PeopleHelpingPeople #BeTheChange #Solidarity #EverydayAnarchist #GrowHumanity #CollectiveAction #CaremongeringArmy

Under certain conditions, communities don’t just participate in change — they generate it.
But that raises a harder question:
What are those conditions?
Because “co-owning solutions” sounds simple.
In reality, it depends on trust, time, and resources many places don’t have.Maybe the real divide isn’t people.
It’s systems that make collective action possible…or quietly block it.https://associationredefine.substack.com/p/casa-do-impacto-where-change-has?r=6l8ed8

"Is it time for a new #revolution?
…
"The loss of our ability to think is a big deal.
..."Dr. White’s briefings and Dr. Cooper’s book were not enough on their own to create this transformation. It was the #CollectiveAction in the wake of these events that ultimately mattered more.
…
"I’m done ceding my brain — the core of all that makes me who I am — to the financial interests of a small number of #technology #billionaires or the shortsighted conveniences of hyperactive communication styles. It’s time to move past fretting about our slide into the #cognitive shallows and decide to actually do something about it.”—Cal Newport

We've been taught to recognize power when it's loud. When it's marching out front, making demands, commanding the room. But some of the most consequential power in history never asked for the spotlight. It just showed up. Did the work. Moved things.

Gary Younge on remembering, struggle and change
'The struggle against segregation demanded organisation – most of it by women – and thousands working together, to make change. It was only after the black community boycotted the buses for 13 months that Montgomery’s local establishment finally relented. An individual may resist, but resistance is collective'

I am completely stopping all 401k contributions in protest to the #us #dictator and his #ice #thugs. This is the only #collectiveAction readily available to us #citizens, but if we all rejected their bullshit incentives, maybe they will start listening.
This is the only lever I have been able to find. I hope others join me.

My fantasy is to have enough money I could launch a quit capitalism collective. We'd just work on dogfooding alternative systems full-time. Launch non-quantified value currency and business models, transparent and regenerative supply chain systems, community reinvestment and antifragile feedback loops…

#Earth4All #Argentina: Young people confront today’s challenges through debate
At a time when social and environmental crises are deepening, this initiative shows that young people are not just aware of the challenges—they are ready to lead the transformation. The real challenge is to listen to them and make room for their voices in the creation of truly transformative public policies.
5 June 2025
"On 9 May, young people between the ages of 18 and 30 gathered simultaneously in #Córdoba, #BuenosAires, and #Tucumán to take part in the workshop 'Understanding the present to build the future we want,' part of the Earth4All Argentina National Engagement Strategy led by the #ClubOfRome – Argentinian Chapter.
"Organised in collaboration with #FundaciónAlimentaris and #JóvenesPorElClima, the workshop was part of the participatory process of the National Participation Program (NEP), an initiative aimed at gathering diagnostics, experiences, and proposals from local communities to influence public policy. Its goal is to collectively adapt the international Earth4All model to local realities. The model warns of the urgent need to move away from the current path, described as '#TooLittleTooLate,' and to move toward a '#GiantLeap' centred on #social and #EnvironmentalJustice. This transformative agenda is structured around five turnarounds: #EradicatingPoverty, #ReducingInequality, #EmpoweringWomen, transforming #FoodSystems, and driving the energy transition.
"The workshop brought together university students from the host cities, #grassroots and #EnvironmentalActivists, and civically engaged youth eager to influence #LocalPolicies and practices. Facilitated by Jóvenes por el Clima, the event was organized around two main dynamics: first, introducing the foundations and challenges of the Earth4All model; and second, mapping specific local issues and working in thematic groups aligned with the model’s five pillars, with the aim of #CoCreating concrete proposals grounded in the experiences and voices of #YoungPeople."
