>Would you consider yourself at all sympathetic to revolutionary arguments
Yeah totally, I mean I get it but it's also not the stance that I would take because (burke posting) revolutions don't always go as planned. I'm a linguistics and archaeology student, used to be a Kropotkinite, but the more I started studying prehistoric cultures the more I realized modernist arguments and thoughts are outdated. We face much larger language and culture based problems with over socialization and population dynamics, than any infighting ideologue can address (not speaking to Ted, just those bookchin and anarchist thinkers). You have to remember that contemporary politics are still 100% human centered, but philosophy and ecosophy are starting to take a turn which is the change we need to focus on. If you read people like fisher and land, you start to realize that the status quo is difficult to escape or change without being absorbed by it. So the post-human philosophy needs to take charge in order to shake up our surroundings (which I would argue it's doing slowly). Read as much contemporary philosophy as you can, skip the read theory bs focus on what's hot now. Post human and non-anthro philosophy has been gearing up since the 80s, so you should have a lot to look for. Look into land and fisher like I said, and get past current affairs and existential bs. If a political body is ever to meet the earth's needs, it'll require an external head or sovereign to think the long game. Getting a small group of people to coordinate this beyond democracy and populism, to think without hampering, is in my opinion the best bet. If you want to look at small term, bioregionalism and creating outdoor education for children look like great avenues for this stuff. Scouting organizations are dying, and creating forest based youth groups (like early scouting/wandervogel) seem promising for the long term. But just spreading the non-anthro, antipopulist, antidemocracy thought is enough to get things burning. If said oligarchy isn't responsive to our biocentric needs we're fucked, but we were fucked anyways so this is what I think the best bet is. Once we get population down and reorganize philosophy, we're in the clear and hopefully will be fine. Just think long term and remember to get past politics. I also really like the conservative revolution thinkers Junger and Schmitt, you'll get some eco with junger (who was a pretty cool guy) and the sovereign legal theory with schmitt. Just do you anon and keep a level head.

It's all in finnish, but if you learn the language you get mad props from me!
