highly recommend this series of 4 episodes about #JustStopOil protesters who are political prisoners in the #UK and the devastating effect of #StateRepression on themselves and their families.
#GifsArtidote: the extreme crackdown by #UKgov on peaceful protest & direct action shows the narcissistic power dynamic in the relationship between civilians and the state. when the state acts with impunity, resistance becomes moral duty.
the state has the #responsibility to respond decisively and systematically to tackle imminent threats to life and our environment caused by this political and economic system.
just like my ex-partner has to take responsibility for systemic threats to his life by his trauma induced thinking and behaviour (his political system on micro level) and his actions as a result (his economic system on micro level, for instance spending money on alcohol & weed whilst cutting on healthy food & essentials). if he then manipulates me to sacrifice my income to sustain him, i have a moral duty to take responsibility for myself and protest that demand by stating he first needs to take steps to address the causes of his fundamental problems, in other words, take accountability.
same happened with these protesters. they pointed out the state should stop fossil fuel extraction and consumption because it's threatening our collective life and environment. but because the #BillionaireClass relentless addiction to profit and fossil fuel, they manipulate civilians into believing we have to pay for their 'essentials' instead of dealing with the root cause of climate change: #capitalism and #authoritarianism. their actions show the government only represents the billionaire class, and the system is set up to only benefit them, like narcissists do.
by gaslighting the public to believe these protesters are terrorists they destract and ignore their own terrorism by deliberately fuelling climate catastrophe to maintain the status quo of capitalists' narcissistic psychopathic megalomania.
now, like my personal situation, the #StateWeAreIn is life threatening. therefore militant direct action is justified to save our lives, our dependants lives and our environment. narcissistic psychopaths can only be stopped through cutting off all contact, enablement and money before a multi-disciplinary intervention, restrainment of freedom and then psychological treatment.
we can all take personal responsibility to #educate #organise & #resist through #boycotting big business, #invest in local community, #sabotage the system and create alternatives. but the most important priority is focusing on caring for ourselves and each other, setting boundaries and defending them, asking for help and looking to help others.
to be honest, i have no one I can ask and state & community services seem to have largely abandoned me, or are grossly insufficient.
i am looking to build a social safety net for myself, so if you can offer any emotional support and you are yourself emotionally and psychologically stable, please contact me. don't expect anything in return though, i have given my all and am running on empty, in every sense of the word. see it as an investment with a long term return. i also don't trust anyone so bring good references and accreditation cause i don't take nobody's bullshit.
if you do succeed in building my trust in you, you'll have a sibling for life who'll return the favour.
