I have recently found myself in debates about the fedipact and corporate influence. The fact that fedipact exists and I had the counter arguments and participants handy, was great. But there is more evil out there, mostly hierarchical thinking (up to speciecism imo) which leads to consumerism, destruction of our climate and more.

Imo, the rise of corporate control and surveilance (-capitalism) gives both power to autocracy (bc corporations are autocracies which influence people around them into thinking its fine) and facilitates loss of empathy for fellow humans and other living creatures.

So I began searching if there is a movement which is just anti corporate. The only one I found was occupy but it hasnt made any news for years. No big deal I thought since it has been around since 1920 so it might come back.

The wikipedia article shows occupy as having no hierarchical structure so it reminded me of anarchism in a way. Since my last post over in .ml was deleted by a mod, I hope I have shown why this is in fact an anarchism topic.

Feel free to disagree or elaborate, I’m here to learn.

Thanks for reading and have a good one.

    Please refrain from psychologizing in the future… you are so far off the mark it is almost funny :)

    Oh and an almost dormant account on a random instance jumping in an obscure thread in a small community to support a specific argument is a sure sign of a sockpuppet account. Please stop gaslighting people here and treat them with the respect you claim they deserve.

      @BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world might be able to clear this up since both barti and I are known to him. Your suspicion is close but still false. I’m not writing as barti and I’m not telling them what to write. What else can you think of that would have a similar outcome?

        They’re just throwing trash, telling you what your intentions are causing you to defend yourself, which is baiting you into an antagonistic argument. I would downvote and ignore. Also, remember that you can easily block anyone. I’m gonna do that rn 🙂👍

        Fine, so even if that is true, you just admitted to vote brigading by asking your friends over to this thread and “dunk” on someone you previously had a mild disagreement with but then went on to harass other moderators and instance admins about. I think you should take a step back here and have a long deep thought about what respect means and how it applies to other people and not just to yourself.

          Now you’re twisting my words. I said you should think about other scenarios, not that I asked anyone to do anything. Mate, I dont know what axe you have to grind with me but your gaslighting and manipulation tactics dont work here. You’re the one who shut down a legit question and were unresponsive to my messages (which in itself is disgusting behavior for a mod), your own fellow moderator told me you were wrong. What kind of issue do you have with being wrong and having to project your own issues on others?

          In any case, I dont see us having a constructive discussion at any point in the future since you have no moral compass whatsoever. You’re power tripping. I’m pulling the plug on this. Good bye.

            Just for the record, I didn’t respond because we jointly agreed as mods to de-escalate after you started harassing people in DMs and everything else you wrote above is a complete fabrication.
