// using my own words, look at wordbook below

I'm very gleeded by the tongue. It shapes how we view our world. It chooses how we frame everything from the everyday to the All That Is.

As an withermighter (or anarchist if you will), this makes fullstanding sense to me, but it seems like this samspeech is barely touched by anarchists.

Let's not misunderstand, I am not saying the tongue is more weighty than other forthgangs. We need to dream, to do deeds, to wither might, and to folkweight.

But we are not going to make a change, to loken Gaja, if we are using the tongue of our fiends. Because this is what has happened with our tongues over the thousands of years of might.

Might has shaped our tongues so that we don't think clearly. We think of the industrial machine as the Tree of the Machine that can - and has to - grow unendingly to provide for an unendingly greatening folkrime. We speak of the mighty as newthinkers, jobmakers, mankindloving, dreamers, investors and wise. When the Tree of the Machine begrips freeland, it is seen as a loke for the holy tree.

Herethrough when we use a word, we strengthen the framework of that word. For deem, the word civilization was made in the aroundings of trying to overlingen overgrippers. To make it seem like the overgrippers are rightwised to step on others. To miscare for the mansworth of those being stepped upon.

We need to feel our words and bespeak whether they help us, or misguides us. Are our words meltful? Do they match their retching and metings? Does the word meting match with how our world works?

By greatening meltfulness, our thanks will spread more easily. By having our metings match our retching, we will understand our words. By matching our words with the world, our thanks will guide us unto a good path.

wordbook:

  • folkrime :: The muchness of a folk.
  • tind :: Something that glows a force of life.
  • meting :: The weight of a word, for deem the word horse is weighted with all our undergoings with that which we have been told is a horse. overgrippers :: When somebody wield over a folk without their thave.
  • overlingen :: To make somebody seem better than others.
  • retching :: The meaning of a word.
  • samspeech :: Speaking together.
  • thank :: To think, but in the past.
  • thave: When two players agree upon something.
  • tongue :: The forthgang of how folks speak with eachother.
  • freeland :: Where the deers roam, the fishes swim, the trees dances in the wind, the bumblebees taste uncountful amounts of flowers.
  • withermighter :: Somebody who stands against might, since all might is bad. --

In good faith, folk: Is this the most suitable community for your content?

You're not making yourself clear though.

This tirade against language use written in Anglish leaves room to the interpretation that you paint a picture of linguistic purity by whom exactly (very white people from Northwestern Europe?) against whom exactly? The Roman Empire? Medieval post-Roman institutions? The French?

The very idea that there is some loss power for English speakers in using a Germanic-Romance hybrid language is possibly problematic.

I have commented elsewhere on constructed languages, and I hold Anglish as one mental experiment that is mildly interesting. For linguists maybe. Because this is some wildly white shit I wouldn't care much about when there are so many Southeast Asian and African languages we can look to when talking about opening our minds to other worldviews and intellectual traditions. I personally find Gaelic more interesting than Anglish in that effect, but that is just my opinion.

Your essay makes some points similar to discussions that many scholars have developed about how language shapes thinking. But it also has a twist that is only too common in nationalist (and before those, romantic) movements, a view that projects huge loads of magical thinking onto the "purity of our ancestors language". Just throwing the word anarchist in there does not change this.

Now community-wise, I believe that your choice of language to address an international community using English as a common language was in bad taste, similar to using a jargon or an obscure slang to address a non specialist crowd.

Acting in good faith, I will refrain for now from moderating this post, but I will leave this criticism here instead. If you, however, come out with views that more explicitly clash with this community's standards and ideological foundation, have no doubt that immediate action will be taken.

Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules: 0. Post content that is thoughtful and relevant to social liberation from an anarchist, autonomous, antifascist perspective.

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don't be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.
