Whose illusions do we preserve through politeness? Solidarity is not an optic; it is a disruption. It is noisy, uncomfortable, often isolating. It pulls reputation apart rather than polishing it.

@cdarwin@c.imThe oldest known pyre, located in Alaska, dates back 11,500 years and contains the created remains of a 3-year-old child.
But HOR-1 in Malawi is the oldest example of adult cremated remains found in a pyre.
We will likely never know the identity of this woman, or why her death inspired such a carefully coordinated ritual. But it seems safe to assume that the cremation was a significant event for the community that expended so much forethought and labor to perform it.

@mlawton@mstdn.socialAfter undergoing the ritual debate of Coopers Hawk or Sharp Shinned Hawk, we’ve unanimously decided this is a Coopers Hawk that swooped down in pursuit of a small bird hiding in a holly bush.
After playing it cool in this nearby tree, the hawk tried diving into the bush (ouch!), landing & coming up from underneath, but could not reach nor flush out its prey.
It then landed on the railing & became aware of us gaping at it from our front window. Rightfully spooked, it flew …

@hex@kolektiva.socialPerhaps the most interesting thing about the Nacirema people is their insistence that they do not participate in practices of which they clearly do. Equally unusual is the fact that, unlike other sacrificial cultures who raid neighboring tribes for victims, both slaves and victims for human sacrifice are only taken from within the society. In fact, there is a very strong cultural taboo against sacrificing or enslaving those from other tribes.
They are aware of the rituals of human sacrifice in other tribes, but claim such rituals to be inconsistent with their society. Yet their human sacrifice rituals are some of the most elaborate in the world. These rituals are so important that there is a whole part of Nacirema society dedicated specifically to arguing about who should and should not be sacrificed, restraining and feeding the potential victims for the years during which these arguments take place, and ultimately preparing and administering the ritual poison.
This is strangely similar to their approach to slavery. Both human sacrifice and slavery were once a much larger part of Nacirema society. Their human sacrifice rituals now take far longer and happen far less often, but at no point have they ever recognized these ritual sacrifices as such. Meanwhile, the Nacirema do acknowledge that slavery was part of their culture once. During the time when they did recognize their practice of slavery, they did raid other tribes for slaves. Now they follow the same complex ritual for slavery as they do for human sacrifice.
It is strange that, by following this ritual and only choosing victims from within their society, they seem to become incapable of seeing their behavior for what it is.

@vikriti@dopamine.socialMelting the hook man's hook into something else doesn't free his soul. It stays attached to the metal. But burning it in a fire does free him, even if the metal doesn't get hot enough to melt.
It is not the heat of the fire that is significant in ritual purification but the flame.

@hex@kolektiva.socialIt should be noted that the Nacirema absolutely do kill those outside of their tribes during highly ritualized combat. In fact, they are known and feared by many surrounding tribes for their war-like nature. But the previously mentioned taboo seems to be against the execution of the ritual for either enslavement or sacrifice of outsiders for sacrifice or enslavement within tribal territory. Similarly, the Nacirema will not seize slaves during their war raids to bring within their territory. However, it does seem that the tribute system which the Nacirema impose on other tribes favors slavery.
The Elihcian people even tell stories of a chief who tried to end a slave-like practice among their people and refused tribute to the Nacirema. The chief of the Nacirema send emissaries to plot the murder of great chief of the Elihcian with the strongest nobles who were the largest slave owners. The war chief of the Elihcian, a friend of the Nacirema chief, then took over the tribe, enslaved many and paid even more tribute to the Nacirema chief. Many tribes to the South of the Nacirema have very similar stories.
Strangely, again, the Nacirema do not see themselves as war-like. Rather, they see themselves as peaceful. When talking about war and war-raids, they will even sometimes use a phase that means "maintaining" or "sustaining peace" to describe them.
Again, it seems to be the use of ritual that allows them to declare slavery and human sacrifice as "justice" and to declare war as "peace."

My free substack is for the quiet practices that keep us grounded—spiritually, emotionally, and politically.

@hex@kolektiva.socialActually, I do want to come back to masculinity under patriarchy and whiteness under white supremacy because I think it's worth talking more about. The "man" under patriarchy (at least "Western" patriarchy) is represented as power and independence. The man needs nothing and thus owes nothing to anyone. The man controls and is not controlled, which is intimately related to independence as dependence can make someone vulnerable to control. The image of "man" projects power and invulnerability. At the same time "man" is a bumbling fool who can't be held accountable for his inability to control his sexual urges. He must be fed and cared for, as though another child. His worst behaviors must be dismissed with phrases such as "boys will be boys" and "locker room talk." The absurdity of the concept of human "independence" is impossible to understate.
Even if you go all Ted Kaczynski, you have still been raised and taught. This is, perhaps, why it is so much more useful to think in terms of obligations than rights. Rights can be claimed and protected with violence alone, but obligations reveal the true interdependence that sustains us. A "man" may assert his rights. Yet, on some level, we all know that the "man" of patriarchy acts as a child who is not mature enough to recognize his obligations.
White violence and white fragility reflect the same dichotomy. "The master race" somehow always needs brown folks to make all their shit and do all the reproductive labor for them. For those who fully embrace whiteness, the "safe space" is a joke. DEI shows weakness. Yet, when presented with an honest history adults become children who are incapable of differentiating between criticism and simple facts. *They* become the ones who must be kept safe. The expectation to be responsible for one's own words and actions, one of the very core definitions of being an adult, is far too much to expect. Their guilt needs room, needs tending, needs caring. White people cannot simply "grow the fuck up" or, as they may say of slavery, "fucking get over it."
And again, interestingly, it is *rights* that they reference: "Mah Freeze PEACH!" I find it hard to distinguish between such and my own child's assertion that anything she doesn't like is "not fair!" No, these assertions fail to recognize the fundamental fabric of adult society: the obligations we hold to each other.
At the intersection of all privilege is the sovereign, the ultimate god-man-baby. Again, referencing the essay (https://hexmhell.writeas.com/observations-on-domination-and-trump)
> This is where it becomes important to consider the ideology behind the sovereign ritual. Participation within the sovereign ritual denotes to the participants elements of the sovereign. That is, all agents of the sovereign are, essentially, micro dictators. By carrying out the will of the sovereign, these micro dictators can, by extension, act outside of the law.
While law enforcement is the ultimate representative of sovereign violence, privileges allow a gradated approximation of the sovereign. Those who are "closer" in privilege to the sovereign may, for example, be permitted to carry out violence against those who are father away. The gradation of privilege turns the whole society, except for the least privileged, into a cult that protects the privilege system on behalf of the most privileged. (And immediately Malcolm X pops to mind as having already talked about part of this relationship in 1963 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf7rsCAfQCo.)

@hex@kolektiva.socialWe all know Trumpism is an illusion, a facade, a game. His cult is breaking down as they continue to be confronted with the ever widening divergence between their perceived reality and his claims. I feel as though Dawn of Everything provides a useful lens through which to both understand this and to dismantle the ritual violence this cult is carrying out. Perhaps we can even extend this to ourselves to disentangle ourselves from the cultish elements of capitalist modernity.
Authoritarianism itself is ultimately a complex illusion, thus this analysis, the recognition and dismantling of illusion, should inform all elements of those who wish to express anti-authoritarian resistance.
