To Rust Metallic Gods: An Anarcho-Primitivist Critique of Paganism
Originally posted on hastenthedownfall: [Note: Appears in print in “Black & Green Review, Issue 1”, available from the Oldowan distro.] Most green anarchists of European ancestry have vehemently rejected the Abrahamic faiths of the Iron Age (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), for their divine hierarchies, their dominion theologies. And most as well the Axial Age faiths,…

Holiday Iconoclasm
Winter holiday season is something I really enjoyed for most of my childhood. Holidays or any school-free days were great, but Christmas season in particular was cool; I got to be away from my shitty teacher for a longer period of time, visited relatives, was taken to not-too-shabby restaurants, got bombarded with gifts, and so…

Against The Grey Squirrel Cull
Originally posted on Eco-Revolt: Last night I was horrified to learn that the government is funding a conservation charity called Red Squirrel South West [1], so that they may cull grey squirrels across the 35 mile area of the North Devon and Somerset coastline that constitutes the northern edges of Exmoor [2]. Red Squirrel South…

Roadkill; Roads Kill
A puddle of blood covered the road and its metallic smell wafted up and down the underpass. Cars whizzed by, and the short fuzzy fur billowed in the gusts of wind. The fox’s corpse lay motionless, still warm as I touched it. I noticed a car was coming towards me, so I immediately grabbed and…

The Evils of Social Media
Social media is commonly hailed to be an invention as revolutionary, as the printing press, enabling mass instantaneous communication on a global scale to anyone with internet access. Proclamations that “we are more connected than ever” are not uncommon in our technophilic society that refuses to see any issues inherent to a technology, even if…

Not Allowed to Die

In Protest of Bread: Decivilising Food
I don’t like bread. Like bricks (bread made of clay) are used to build civilisation’s infrastructure, bread (brick made from grain) is used to build bodies of servants who run this infrastructure. Bread is a staple food of a malnourished and enslaved society, and yet it is praised as some sort of manna, hailed as…

Noam Chomsky is Wrong About Anarcho-Primitivism
Being one of the most known American anarchists, Noam Chomsky has for years been at the centre of attention. A household name, he’s become one of the most cited living authors (mostly in the linguistic field), though far too many know him only for his political activism. This is where we run into problems, because…

Breathing in the Vapor
During my mid-teens (early 2010s) a new aesthetic/music genre gained a fair amount of traction, mostly online. While it is commonly viewed as a satirical bent on modern consumerism, I can’t help but notice vaporwave is in a way critical of more than just consumerism — vaporwave to me seems to reach far into the…

The Myth of Human Weakness
This piece also appears in a zine by Civfucks Distro. There is a prevailing narrative within the walls of civilisation that humans are weak, frail and oversensitive creatures that would never have survived for so long, if it weren’t for our superior intelligence that has allowed us to create countless highly specific tools, and eventually…
