In fact, it is weak, fragile, made vulnerable in its complexity to sabotage.Ģ. There are two things a revolutionary must keep in mind:ġ. We plant communal gardens, cook for the homeless, learn foraging, publish zines. We busy ourselves with attempts at educating and organizing our communities, preparing for the day the miracle manifests. For the gods of climate change to swing down from the rigging and declare “ENOUGH!” and thereafter we will rejoice and set ourselves to building our better, cleaner world. We will have to wait for nuclear war or a Carrington Event or for the Yellowstone supervolcano to erupt and smother the fires of industry with vengeful ash, or better yet, for the ruling class and their technophile acolytes to simply come to their senses, apologize, and turn the machines off themselves. The system, therefore, we tell ourselves, will simply have to collapse on its own. The machine is too large, the methods of destroying it too extreme, too costly, too messy in their implications. The prospect of a real, violent uprising against the technological system seems, for many, impossible. The System is Not Invincible: Analyzing Viable Threats to the US Power Grid We hope only to exercise our right to freedom of speech in order to present our personal views authentically and honestly. It would be anathema to a nascent anti-tech organization to openly incite violence, which would prompt law enforcement to hinder our ability to spread our message. We denounce violence as a matter of pragmatism, not a matter of principle. Finally, we do not advocate that anyone consider this publication an exhortation for violent or illegal action of any kind. If you identify with any of these viewpoints, stay away. It is our opinion that the pursuit of any one of these values will be meaningless on a dead planet. We vehemently oppost racism, nationalism, ethno- 5 nationalism, any form of fascism or defense of the rule of law. If you believe these issues are the most pressing issues facing society today, stay away. We reject the call to engage with issues such as social justice, feminism, anti-racism. Thus, we are not a partisan movement, nor do we have any interest in furthering the ideologies of any movement on the left-right political spectrum. More pressing still, it is our belief that the technoindustrial system presents an absolute and urgent existential threat to all life on earth. It is on these grounds that we repudiate reformist and environmentalist sentiments, which we believe serve only as distractions that do nothing to counter the true goal of techno-industrialism that is, the total enslavement and annihilation of Wild Nature. It is our view that the techno-industrialist machine is a violent, destructive, and irreparable system of subjugation, and because of this we do not support any social or political efforts to rehabilitate it. With this publication, we aim to disseminate ideas relevant to this cause in order to inspire others like us to stand in opposition to a force which we have judged to be ethically, philosophically, and practically irredeemable. Our mission is to organize coherent and direct action against the global techno-industrialist system.
