Goosebumps
This text gives me some serious goosebumps. Great words
folkbildning
Eftersom folk verkar helt obildade vore kanske en referens på sin plats?
hint: Gil-Scott Heron
JFGI
Jag tycker nog att folk ska få öva upp sina sökmuskler lite. ;-)
good text, but I think you
good text, but I think you are wrong. Unlike television, the internet genuinly does have some revolutionary potential. Is this a deliberate irony? The revolution will be seeded!
@tommy don't know if you're aware of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsO4u46wIlk
Seed, ye leechers
Yeah, it will be seeded, broadcast and buffered. My point was that we can't revolutionize the world just by sitting at home, pressing buttons. We'll have to move out, into the streets and meet the enemy on their own terms, on their own turf.
Activism starts at home, but it ends in the streets.
Sorry
Sorry, doesn't subscribe to that theory. This is basically left-wing thinking, and not universally recognized. If you're thinking of campaigning, that's winning the souls of the voters by applying a new angle, not by badmouthing the other parties but by explaing why their policies are more or less irrelevant.
On the contrary, I think the fight (not about PP itself but creating a flourishing net) will eventually be won by massive amounts of people, sitting at home, pressing buttons, winning souls for the causes. Fighting battles on somebody else's home turf, and winning on their terms, is a great movie theme, but in real life you almost always have to get the enemy to move into your own turf to win a battle. Which means, for example, that PP should not try to promise better social, economic and labor policies than the old parties.
Agreed, but...
To create real change in the here and now, we need to get into the Swedish parliament. To do that, we need to reach more voter groups than young, technically-inclined men. For that to happen, we'll need to walk the streets with pamphlets set up posters and establish an AFK presence. That's my reasoning. I do not believe we should expand our policies.
Musik!
Skitbra! Någon som kan mucisera den? Eller finns det ett original? Med musik?
WOW!
Jag säger bara wow!
Riktigt tung text...
