  2. Pick up the shovels to start growing the commons, that’s the #OMN path

    There is a temptation to see today's hard right move as something new. Looking at this mess, the #deathcult is the name I use for the destructive logic of #neoliberal capitalism: a world where profit, growth and competition are the dominant measures of value, while human needs, shared resources and collective responsibility are pushed aside. If we want to understand the political crisis, we need to dig beneath its surface of how social crisis becomes authoritarian politics. The hard right […]

  4. Christianity teaches that pain is external and unnatural, something we must strive to avoid at all costs.

    Worse, true relief from pain only comes as a reward for obedience in enduring mortal pain. Ongoing punishment for sin is the godly default, and only a righteous death will release you from it.

    This often generates a veneration of suffering and motivates people to pursue it in themselves and others. These inherent contradictions only lead to additional trauma and confusion.

    This is why I call it an abuse culture. It is THE root of abuse culture in the West. Secular culture is infected with these core values that run much deeper than rote doctrines, and we have only just begun to unpack it.

    An alternate view is that pain is one of many aspects of nature. It's uncomfortable, and we instinctively do try to avoid it, but sometimes it can never be avoided and there is less suffering and even healing in accepting this fact. There is even balance and beauty in pain, as it warns us of damage, protects us from death, and is a necessary aspect of creation and newborn life.

    Our ancestors knew this. It is one of the values we were colonized out of.

    White unculture sucks at helping us cope with unavoidable pain.
