A belief in meritocracy is not only false: it’s bad for you
Meritocracy has become a leading social ideal. Politicians across the ideological spectrum continually return to the theme that the rewards of life—money, power, jobs, university admission—should be distributed according to skill and effort.

No i na razie tyle z tego, co istotne. Sprawa chyba jest rozwojowa.
Natomiast tutaj mój prywatny komentarz.
Do wczoraj nie miałem pojęcia, że taki festiwal istnieje. Stoi za nim zapewne niewielki sztab ludzi z ograniczoną ilością czasu i energii. Nie wiem, co się działo za kulisami i nie byłem w pokoju, gdy podejmowano decyzje.
Wiem natomiast, czym jest kanał Zero.
I dostrzegam tu ogromną dysproporcję sił. Spore imperium medialne z zasięgami wśród odbiorców z prawej strony sceny politycznej kontra jakiś mały event, na którym odbywa się dyskusja na temat, który u tych prawicowych odbiorców mógłby "zażreć".
I dostrzegam też, że to wszystko dzieje się w czasie, kiedy pod przychodnią aborcyjną AboTak w Warszawie ustawiają się anti-choicerzy i hałasują całymi godzinami. Prezydent Warszawy mimo licznych próśb nie chce rozwiązać zgromadzenia. Jeśli przejrzycie listę zarejestrowanych zgromadzeń publicznych[1^], to znajdziecie multum zgromadzeń na Wiejskiej 9 zgłoszonych na wiele tygodni do przodu.
I dzieje się to w czasie i okolicznościach, w której wiele kobiet jest zmęczonych i wkurwionych na to, że obecna ekipa rządząca zdobyła władzę w 2023 na postulatach związanych własnie z aborcją - jakieś 3 lata po wielkich strajkach kobiet z 2020 - i nie dowiozła żadnego. W efekcie jest tak, że mamy wybory za dwa lata i sondaże wskazujące na to, że prawica w jakimś kształcie dojdzie do władzy.
Więc w tym kontekście odwołana dyskusja o aborcji na festiwalu w pcimiu dolnym oraz obecność w tej historii znanego medium prawicowego wybrzmiewa znacznie mocniej i wyzwala zrozumiałe emocje.
I na koniec - dorzućcie się na kolektyw Legalna Aborcja. Stronę internetową już chyba będą miały, ale jakiś dodatkowy sprzęt pewnie im się przyda.

Katie Zacharia, the new White House press secretary, made her debut on the podium on Tuesday with all the warmth, wisdom and political dexterity of an AI avatar.
Zacharia was all stilted delivery,
nervous tics and lack of eye contact.
With an eerie lack of emotion, she served up pro-Trump talking points,
took only three questions
and vanished after 14 minutes.
It was like the West Wing had turned into uncanny valley.
The Zachbot’s past is indeed a bi…

RE: kolektiva.social/@scrappy_capy
I think there are some pieces missing here. Hosting does scale down poorly, but it only scales poorly because of how we host. There *is* an increased cost and complexity to shutting down small sites. If we can change the way we host, make it easier to replicate, then there *is* an asymmetry. It was technically as simple as pushing buttons to shut down A/I, but it was not politically as simple. Forcing them to build a case to shut down every little site *is* a different order of complexity. It's easy to confuse the technical and the political. We should not be so naive.
We need to focus on making hosting easier, on simplifying the complexities, on building open federations (like Co-op Cloud) focused on sharing resources to make distributed systems more viable.
More importantly, self-hosting vs collective hosting doesn't change the impact equation. If repression can cleanly target it's victims, then repression wins. Resistence that works is resistence that forces the oppressor to attack people who aren't otherwise aligned. This radicalizes unaligned people into the resistence. Every victory by the agressor must be made pyrrhic.
This is done by mixing hosting. Stop hosting anarchist only sites. That makes an easy target. Host sites that help people. Provide free hosting for liberal orgs, for churches and temples, make the headline say, "church websites shut down in counterterrorism campaign." Start from the assumption that there will be a crackdown, write headline that would be the most damaging to the enemy, and work backwards.
It's time to learn some insurgency theory for fuck sake.
And about that cybernetic legibility thing. It's definitely one element to consider, but I don't think the zine really dug in as much as I'd like. Reducing legibility may mean dropping offline. The state has been tooling itself around controlling the Internet. Moving radical activity offline forces state forces to retool. That increases complexity.
But there are other methods of decreasing legibility. There are a lot of radical things that the system struggles to or cannot intepret as radical. This is why I advocate for centering disaster anarchism, community building (setting up tool libraries and community pantries). A small group of people can increase the complexity such that they absorb much of the capacity of the repressieve apparatus. But that doesn't really matter unless society is organized, invisibly, to leverage that opportunity.
Anarchism is not blowing up police stations. It is building systems of mutual coordination. That can be invisible, or illegible, to the system.
Cybernetics is all about control. The adversary of control is complexity. If you are resisting control, your goal is to make it as complex as possible to stop you. That doesn't mean "we should all take this new strategy" but, as hinted at but not made explicit in the zine, that we should *all agree on objectives but all apply multiple different strategies*.
