    No financing. No leadership.

    Financing corrupts, leadership is corruptible.

    We need a bottom-up movement without that shit.

      No leadership?

      Read ‘The Autobiography Of Malcolm X.’

      He said that there’s no achievement without leadership. even if it’s only you, you have to discipline yourself.

        A leader says you have to have leadership. Big fucking surprise there.

        I say we don’t need leadership. Leaders can be corrupted. Leaders can be assassinated.

        Remind me again what happened to Malcom X.

          Hmm, this is quite a conundrum.

          Who should I heed? A man who literally transformed the thinking of millions of people or some rando on the internet who is completely unable to put forth any thing like a rational plan of action.

          By your logic, no one should pay attention to Gandhi, MLK, Abe Lincoln, or Leon Trotsky.

          Also, by your logic, no one should listen to you because if they did, they’d be following you.

            Well … yes.

            I am an anarchist, after all.

            I mean, look at the world around you right now. Look what became of your revered leaders in history. How’s this whole following leaders thing working out for you so far? Why do you think it will be any different going forward?
