Heyyy everyone! For those who have not already noticed, the new video was released!

The script for part 2 is in process. It will be called A Modern Anarchism: Anarchy and will be an analysis of revolutionary strategy on the broadest scale, stages of progress and development, as well as descriptions of the systemic dynamics of how anarchy might function. As you might imagine this is a huge task, but I am very much enjoying the writing process so far! It is already up to 11,289 words (the part 1 script got up to 14,100 by completion), although there will be extensive additions and cuts in the interim. This means that the themes of the video are already pretty well developed and I just need to work on organizing the order of arguments, eliminating redundancy, and determining the scope.

It is possible that, as this script develops, it will be split into two parts, as it covers both a theory of anarchy and a revolutionary theory, but I will be endeavoring to keep them combined, as prefiguration suggests the two are inherently intertwined.

I will probably make the script available to patrons soon, after it has got a bit more polish. In the mean time, thank you all for being here!

A Modern Anarchism: Anarchist Analysis

This video is the first in a several part series where I am developing a modern synthesis of anarchism. It is not intended as an introduction to anarchism, but instead a broad coverage of anarchist ideas, discussing the state, Capital as Power, kyriarchy, the mega-machine, queer anarchism, Black anarchism, social ecology, decolonial ideas, and much more... Here we will lay out the anarchist mode of structural critique and apply this theory of power to a variety of hierarchical power structures. 0:00 Introduction 6:00 First Principles 23:15 Kyriarchal Power 1:16:30 Mega-Mechanical Colonization 1:39:52 A Revolutionary Light Help me pay the bills and eat so that I can produce more videos and more often!
