What's legal isn't necessarily what's moral. Lots of legal things have been immoral and lots of illegal things have been moral. That and we should abolish law and replace it with informal social norms. #law #morality #ethics #socialism #anarchism #egalitarianism
#Egalitarianism
I really love seeing other people point out that intelligence and intellectual disability have *nothing* to do with the worth of a human being. I've said it many, many times, and it's hugely important to me that people see the truth of it. Too often, I see people who would be mortified to say something ableist, causally shaming someone for making poor or immoral choices by calling them an IQ-related slur -- without even batting an eye.
This is a shout-out to two specific folks I've seen make this point:
I hold you both in high esteem.

Hey #Centrists
Life may be good for you, but it's not for a lot of people.
You need to orient yourselves to supporting those people because they are a growing majority: you are a shrinking minority.
Instead of clinging to #capitalism, just move toward #egalitarianism, it feels good to do what's right.

I made modest progress. I'm clarifying things and am whittling things down. #egalitarianism #socialism #anarchism
I'm officially working on historical relativism even though I'm tired today. Making progress on time and the relationship between time and history. #egalitarianism #socialism #anarchism
The future is egalitarian religions and spiritualities and abolishing hierarchical or "organized" religions. #religion #egalitarianism #socialism #anarchism

Interesting if true. But probably out-of-date and has zero sources lol.
Fiercely egalitarian? Yes they are!
Nothing at all romantic about these mechanisms for #egalitarianism. Just about as politically sophisticated as #Homosapiens ever gets.
Follow a hashtag by clicking on it, and in the new column, at the top, is a follow button. Now every post with an #egalitarianism hashtag goes into your home timeline. Until you unfollow.
I value the relationship we have with other countries. I value the military and alliances and economic partnerships. It seems our #POTUSINO doesn’t. He believes we can take care of ourselves. No one else matters. #Egalitarianism is dead. 2/7
I have never used the phrase “upper management” in my life.
Those guys - they’re all guys - get up off the toilet, turn around and look in the bowl before flushing, just like the rest of us.
A quotation from Martin, Judith:
«
The pejorative term “political correctness” was adapted to express disapproval of the enlargement of etiquette to cover all people, in spite of this being a principle to which all Americans claim to subscribe.

George Monbiot talks about the return of the #oligarchy (and rampant #inequality) and calls for effective strategies to maintain #egalitarianism and #democracy. Massive program of mobilisation is needed. See clip ⤵️

Day 13: our leading scholar #IanWatts takes us to the heart of #Hadza cosmology by following the zigzag trail of the mysterious entity !o!oko, cannibal grandmother and mantis trickster and transformer.
Stories and beliefs associated to the Mantis among the Hadzabe of Tanzania compare with the well-known figure of the Mantis among the /Xam Southern #San #huntergatherers. This suggests great antiquity of the concepts related to #lunar time.
The word itself -- !o!oko -- is probably very ancient with double alveolar-palatal click (pop sound from taking your tongue quickly away from the alveolar ridge). The -ko ending implies femaleness, but this entity has gender fluidity.

A 🧵 for the hot topic of factors involved in #gender #egalitarianism here. Being friends and pupils of the late, great #JamesWoodburn, we feel his use of 'egalitarian' reflects the dynamic quality of #huntergatherer #gender relations (authors who discuss the issues are mentioned, off the top of my head! I will try to fill in details/sources later)
Woodburn had some brilliant stuff on gender buried in unpublished notes which we are getting some access to. In his classic 1982 article here, he's addressing egalitarianism among men

Day 12: in this brilliant talk Dasa Bombjakova describes #moadjo, the #BaYaka theatre of #ridicule run by older #women if some man misbehaves!
'this lecture portrays the role of ridicule and other powerful levelling mechanisms in learning about the normative world of this gender-egalitarian BaYaka hunting and gathering society. How do you teach norms to children in this specific cultural context? What this has to do with the Colin Turnbull’s concept of noise? Dasa Bombjakova will address these questions and raise some tips on future research on norms in an egalitarian hunter-gatherer context.'
