I think you took the joke a bit too seriously

Edit: oh wait wtf I didn't notice the post body. I agree with you then lol

I just wanna conspire with comrades using pretty little pictures.

You mean like when the emoji for gun went from something realistic to a squirt gun?

Emoji are a new form of language and language dictates thought

retributive violence against individual actors is not the same as dismantling oppressive systems

My problem is that I only understand one of those things. The other is meaningless hot air, spewed exclusively by intellectual elites who may or may not have any idea of what that is even supposed to mean.

work of creating resilient communities and networks of mutual aid to replace those heirarchies.

And that explanation doesn't tell me anything either. Put up a guillotine. Put the man in. Let the blade fall. I understand that. Create a network of mutual aid to replace hierarchies? Never saw that happen. Never learned about that, or how that is supposed to work. Don't know what that is supposed to mean, or how that is supposed to play out.

If you assume anyone knows about any of that, and if you assume that anyone can imagine anything concrete about that, you are out of touch. You are communicating ineffectively. At least to me. And probably to most other people as well.

The effect of examples is not to underestimate. That's how they keep workers in check, and that's how guillotining a king got 2 centuries of democracy.
