Who Watches the Watchers | Abolition for the People | reading video | So...

Content Warning for Racism, Classism, White Supremacy, Violence, and Police Brutality. . . . . . . . We live in a heavy Surveillance world. We are watched a lot or can be watch and recorded. But how much can they watch of us? Is there accountability? Are they being audited? Do we can a say in this? And more importantly, did we consent to this? I read out loud an essay from the series Abolition for the People that covers this topic.

You know what, I haven't asked this. From what I heard, they will just go to the town hall meetings, call them, write letters, and send emails. Which, IF that is it, that is what you are supposed to normally do. That is just normal. I don't see how that is holding someone's feet to the fire. I think we have to be more drastic. Hence why I have suggested we do what we did to Mitch McConnell and other Republicans. Go as a group to anytime Joe Biden sits downs to eat at a restaurant and ask him, "When are you going to support Medicare 4 All? If you don't support Medicare 4 All, you are okay with people dying. When are you going to free all the people in the concentration camps and reunited them? Are you going to closed down the camps after that is over? When are you going to end Private Prisons? Are you going to stop America's Imperialism?" Going to Townhalls, calling your representatives, writing letters and emails could work, especially since a lot don't do that. But my fear is that Joe Biden can just easily ignore us. He has already said he doesn't care about Millennials and we should just get a job. When challenge on his immigration policies and history, he said to the person, "Vote for Trump." So yes, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, the Establishment Democrats, they easily ignore you. They are the Representatives. They make the rules and laws. And we have to follow them. That is what the Police State is for. That is why I say we have to step up and get in good trouble. And bother Joe Biden at restaurants, as just one example. Especially Biden. Once in Office why would he cares what we think? He won't go for another term. And the Democrats already have the "We not the Republicans" angle to fall back on. And would any of the Democratic Establishment care what an Anarcho-Syndicalist thinks about? Joe Biden has said that he hates these Anarchists, much like Trump. Joe hates Anarchists for being political dissents. So would I and others like me be listened to? No. Especially since we want to dismantle the whole system. A system that Joe Biden and the Democratic Establishment benefit from with riches and power. So, we have to do drastic 'good trouble' to get things done.  That is the only way I see Joe Biden and Kamala Harris moving Left. But the rest of America has to move Left too. That will happen when the Baby Boomers die off. We only have 9 years before we are beyond the turning point of Climate Change disaster.

What about other problems we can’t foresee? Anarchist societies will face problems we cannot possibly foresee now, just as they will encounter difficulties we might predict but be unable to solve without the historical laboratory revolution provides. But one of the many errors of the state is the neurotic supposition that society is perfectible, that it is possible to craft blueprints that provide for all problems before they occur. Favoring laws over case-by-case evaluation and common sense, maintaining a standing army, granting the police emergency powers on a permanent basis — all these stem from the paranoia of statism. We cannot tie down the contingencies of life in a blueprint, nor should we. In an anarchist society, we would have to invent entirely new solutions for wholly unpredictable problems. Should we earn the opportunity, we will do so with joy, getting our hands dirty in the complexities of life, realizing our vast potential and reaching new levels of growth and maturity. We need never again surrender the power to solve our own problems in cooperation with those around us.
