#radical — Public Fediverse posts

Dear Friends of Young people (not young corps, young 'AI' or next pig or 'big' thing)

Believe it or not everything has to #change. Some of us (me for example) are too decrepit to think, act or innovate. And so:

1) I will be doing #normal things for my age and retired brain
2) If it ain't #radical. I probably have herd it all before, going over the cliff with lemmings
3) Being #ineffectual is not a legacy. That is why I have nothing but leaves on a tree. That will fall too
4) I am slowly abandoning my senses. Witch is the #sensible thing to do in a #crazed world.
5) Tomorrow I will be a new person. Today I am #conscious (but not quite sure of what)
6) One last thing... oops... slipped my mind. It might have been really important. Doubtful 😉

Have a great day everyone who still believes or can. Be #kind to your #Kindness Nurture it like a #precious orchid.

A quotation from Terry Pratchett

Here’s some advice boy. Don’t put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That’s why they’re called revolutions.

A quotation from Thomas Carlyle

Is not every true Reformer, by the nature of him, a Priest first of all? He appeals to Heaven’s invisible justice against Earth’s visible force; knows that it, the invisible, is strong and alone strong. He is a believer in the divine truth of things; a seer, seeing through the shows of things; a worshiper, in one way or the other, of the divine truth of things; a Priest, that is. If he be not first a Priest, he will never be good for much as a Reformer.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Scottish essayist and historian
Lecture (1840-05-15), “The Hero as Priest,” Home House, Portman Square, London

‘The real takeaway from this #film for me, is about who gets to make art, whose voice matters, and what they choose to disregard, in this #creative climate. For all its attempts to be shocking, Fennell’s film has stripped away all that is #radical about #WutheringHeights, and even aesthetically her attempt to out-weird a #Bronte falls flat, feeling to me like a two-hour-16-minute-long perfume advertisement for watered-down eau de Tim Burton.’

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/feb/17/wuthering-heights-class-race-emerald-fennell-director

This review of the new ‘Wuthering Heights’ film really captures why we need to #defundculture - not to destroy it, but to radically redistribute resources and opportunities. It’s not just about what gets made, but about who gets to make it, and how cultural power quietly filters out anyone or anything genuinely different and disruptive.

Defunding #culture in this sense, isn’t only about budgets; it’s about how institutions systematically defund risk, anger and unruly voices.

"When unimaginable headlines become reality, you've got to come up with once unimaginable strategies!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

If the future gets weird, maybe your strategies need to get weird as well.

Think about it: we are less than thirty days into 2026, and the rulebook hasn't just been rewritten—it’s been incinerated. We are witnessing a compression of history, where decades of change are now crammed into days. The definition of "stability" has evaporated, replaced by a relentless volatility that refuses to pause.

Headlines that were unimaginable a decade ago, let alone a year ago, are now common. 

All of this means that if you are still operating on last year's logic, you aren't just behind; you are watching a different movie entirely. And this one isn't a rom-com, it's a horror show.

In that context, any comfort zone is gone. The headlines proving that "it can't happen here" are being printed daily. In this environment, caution is the most dangerous strategy of all. Thinking fast and moving faster is the only way through the mess.

To survive this year (and beyond), you need to dismantle your assumptions, destroy your complacency, and challenge your belief in stability..

You need to build strategies that feel as radical as the news cycle itself.

This means you have to stop planning for the probable and start preparing for the unimaginable.

Because the unimaginable is now reality.

After all, this week, Greenland, next week?

Maybe I'll go apply to #TikTok, and secure the american app and fix it. TikTok's current #algorithm is #insidious, I think designed to create #division and #radicalize people. Soon TikTok will tell me its #secrets, but I have to work on some #vulns system for a few weeks. Designing some brains for other important non-hobby smtask lol

My initial #scans for #TikTok are #worrying and I was concerned after my initial scans. My #AI systems were flagging everything. The #content never scored high like other #socialmedia platforms. The content is worrying not just from #radical left or right. There is something non-biased about how it tries to #radicalize. Like it is learning based off #heuristics, like time spent hovering over a #videotile. This triggers an #alert, where you didn't interact but it detected the most likely #video. Then provided more #content. It also gives a heavy weight to #interactions. Which then changes the #algorithm and how it provides #content. None of this is really bad, it is trying to be helpfulful. What I find concerning is the videos it provides. Like a stream of #bothsides #content. Trying to figure you out and provide more content. There isn't even #educational poop on TikTok. So most of the content is #madness Lol

I’ve wanted to see this for a while. It never made it to any cinemas near me. Rented it on AppleTV store.

#Revolutionary #Radical #Progressive #Politics is mostly just #cynicism, #laziness, #regressive #edgelord #fascist enablement designed to get a hit off #SelfRighteousness

You're revolutionary? How much water do you have? How much food are you willing to give to someone so that they can #fight instead of work? How many people do you know that would be willing to sponsor you fighting with their food?

A violent #revolution would require organizing a thousand WTO #protests every month for 5 years. Are there even enough people (about ten million) that would be willing to support your cause if it were organized?

Everyone who's spending their energy fighting the mainstream left of center (in the #USA or anywhere) is engaging in the exact behavior #Stalinists engaged in that helped #fascism rise.

"#Trans #women will never be #free until #people stop having strong emotions about #penises. Like we, as a #society, have got to stop caring about dicks! #Dicks have to stop #symbolizing #maleness, #obviously, but they also have to stop symbolizing #power, #dominance, #sexual agency and #aggression, #violence, and even #sex itself. Like trans women can’t be free if the very conceptual presence of a penis represents an intrusion(!) of unwanted(!) sexuality(!) in public life. Like that’s why trans women are abhorrent to both #male #chauvinists and #radical #feminists, #because both groups have extremely strong feelings about what a penis *represents*, and find the conceptual and actual presence of a woman with a penis to be simultaneously vile and nonsensical because they’ve loaded so much symbolic baggage onto both women and penises.

Anyway dicks are totally neutral #body parts and seeing a dick, or a bulge in a swimsuit, or simply knowing that there’s a dick somewhere in the same bathroom as you isn’t harmful or violent"
