The Theory That Men Evolved to Hunt and Women Evolved to Gather Is Wrong
The influential idea that in the past men were hunters and women were not isn’t supported by the available evidence
"Today's #quote comes from the late David Graeber's excellent tome "Debt: the first 5,000 years" (which a little birdy told me you can read by following the pdf file link at the bottom of this article: https://libcom.org/article/debt-first-5000-years-david-graeber .) In terms of the book, I consider it one of the most important historical studies of the rarely-examined, but shockingly pervasive role debt has played in both justifying, and literally creating, the capitalist global order that is current threatening to kill us all on a boiling planet.
Originally published in 2009, this quote comes from the conclusion of Debt: the first 5,000 years, and largely references the installation of neoliberal police states, the global legal structures that lock our societies into these capitalist authoritarian structures, and the fact that even when the 2009 financial meltdown exposed these structures as utterly unsustainable, nothing really changed. This of course remains relevant to us today, because long after the final fallout from that financial tsunami has been counted, we're now living in an evolved state of those same two conditions; what we today, lovingly call "fascist hellworld." Although he couldn't have known the outcome, Professor Graeber even notes that impeding climate catastrophe would likely spell the death of capitalism; which in a manner of speaking is objectively a certainty at this point, all we're really fighting about is how many people are going to be sacrificed on the altar of profit and extraction before we end this, or the planet simply boils the human species into extinction.
In the end, what Graeber is really taking about here, is the already vast, and ever-growing official apparatus of the war on sharing; a machine that includes military forces, domestic policing, a surveillance state, vast propaganda networks, and all the trappings of a military conflict, both international, and domestic on the idea that there is any other possible option besides the capitalist death cult we're all immersed in now. The fact that capitalism has chosen to resolve its exposed contradictions by accelerating that war to open fascist control, and a plan to commit a murder of genocides while the world burns, doesn't really change much about the nature of that machine, and what it has been built to accomplish. This is because both fascism, and neoliberalism are dependent on subverting and subjugating human relations to a legally enforced, inhumanly violent morality encoded in both the social norms, and legal structures of our societies. The terminology may have changed, but the job of killing hope to prevent even the possibility of a threat to the larger capitalist structure, and those who control it, remains functionally identical today at the dawn of fascism, as it did when Professor Graeber wrote this, during the death swoons of neoliberalism.
Standing in the shadow of this vast, and in some ways quite ancient machine, this apparatus to kill ideas, can be quite intimidating. The truth however is that the folks who own, and run the capitalist world we live in, are spending all that money, and exercising all that force, to prevent something they ultimately have no power to actually stop; ideas, specifically ideas about a world, and a future, different than the one capitalist oligarchs have imagined for you, and your children. This machine is very good at pre-empting the formation of ideas, and it's very good at repressing folks who demand alternative ideas be used to run our society, so long as those people remain in the minority. But in the long history of mankind, we have one and truly learned that no amount of propaganda, and state repression, can prevent folks from having ideas, and sharing them with each other; when things get bad enough, sometimes those ideas, are about revolution.
In this regard then, I think it behooves us to remember that climate catastrophe itself, has already acted as the ultimate decider of this ideological debate. Capitalism, which is itself dependent on the fossil fuels that are causing a mass extinction event as we speak, is on borrowed time. There are two ways out of this predicament; genocide, or mutual aid and cooperation on a global-scale never before seen in human history. As the ocean boil, and the forests burn, folks are once again starting to talk about ideas, and ways of living, that are not capitalist, and indeed fundamentally threaten the capitalist project transforming our planet into an open-air mass grave. The killing compassion machine, is now running aground on the shores of reality; our job now as folks who don't want to see the apocalypse, is to make sure hope, not fascism, emerges from the wreckage."

"This will be old hat to a lot of you but it's super simple:
Fascism is not politics. Fascism is a statement of murderous intent that you've been taught to think of as a political formation by? A society that embraces a significant amount of fascist ideology, from its very inception, for the purpose of what? Yes, doing capitalism for the enrichment of a small number of very wealthy people who "own" all our (as a species) shit.
If I went around, saying "I will kill you" or "someone should kill you" to every person I didn't like, they'd lock my ass up eventually. But if you run around saying "we need to decide if people LIKE you should exist" that's politics? My puckered asshole that is.
So spreading fascist ideology, and advocating for fascist political solutions and organizations are absolutely not a question of speech rights, personal opinions, or political advocacy at all; any more than I have a right to found the Murder Party around my purely hypothetical desire to merc billionaires through the use of increasingly elaborate mechanical traps, for sport and entertainment in a new society built around a non-secular religion where the deity looks suspiciously like me.
Once you understand that fascism isn't politics, it's a statement of intent to commit violence, the question of someone's "right" to be a fascist, falls entirely away. And if you were in fact someone who had good reasons to actively FEAR being the target of that fascist intent to commit violence and murder, that would be something very easy for you to understand, but not always that easy to express. If this idea is utterly alien to you, it's because you haven't ever had to ask yourself if the nazi was serious about exterminating you yet, in a world where you're not allowed to fight back.
Bitch is good at words tho, so here ya go."

Like these fuckers on social media that claim they are anarchist but can't explain why they are, hilarious, then they mention nihilist ideology in their explanations thats far from fucking anarchist beliefs.
