    Default Anarcho-Primitivism

    If there are any Anarcho-Primitivists here, could you please explain your reasoning to me?
    The only Nazis I like are Grammar Nazis and ex-Nazis. I would say dead ones as well, but they tend to smell.

    reasoning
    Make your own jokes, people

    Also I don't think there are any active primmies on the site. Therefore we'll just have to rely on stuff like this...they also seem to like stuff like this, so I assume they find clocks threatening, maybe that's reasoning enough for some people...

    Just read Daniel Quinn's Ismael, a book that explains primitivism from the perspective of a talking gorilla, (which is incidentally what most primitivists are in real life).

    I think that primitivism was more of a 90's/early 2000's thing. At least that's the period that I've always associated it with.

    Are you sure, or have you just decided that all lifestylists are primmies?

    It's highly likely that the last 5 anarchists you 'saw'- recongised as anarchists- were primivitists/lifestylists (atleast assumptively) since not all anarchists dress in a certain stereotypical way.

    in "beyond civilization" he expands on his ideas a bit, he is basically critical of civilization as an organizational model and believes the "tribe" is how humans should organize, and has some green ideas but is not for returning to being gatherer-hunters or w/e.

    Yeah, but only because you realised that the traditional kit was a bit of a give-away.

    That guy looks awfully Jewish...

    In all honesty, if some primmie wants to go and live in the woods and hunt wild boar and put a frog in their mouth to cure cancer or whatever else it is they do in the name of activism, I'm happy to leave them to it. None of my business what people get up to in their spare time, I tell you

    That was usually the idea, wasn't it? Heichal in the East, Paddy in the West, Guido in the South- the poor, innocent bourgeoisie were surrounded by mad bombers on all sides! Only the North was safe, and that's just because nobody ever got around to translated Bakunin into Polar Bear.

    Polar Bears are [...] white supremacists
    Although technically they have black skin. They just want to be white. They're pretty much the Michael Jackson of the animal kingdom...
