But also consider that class antagonisms (and I would say we are still in the class antagonism partially) can be effectively mobilized in cities in ways that the countryside is unable to mount. I think we must consider this parallel between urban and rural areas and create exchanges of individuals from community groups to experience other ways of living and report back. This urban/rural dialogue could be incredibly beneficial because I feel like this divide can particularly be felt in the modern era. We need an effective way of communicating between groups instead of narratives being formed about them.

I leave you with this idea: where there is a greater accumulation of class antagonisms the greater the disparity. From this: the greater the potential front of resistance we can mount. Just an idea tho.

just seen this (following the contend with the radfem, lol). I got your point, and if there’s no other way rather than being condemned to live in a smart city, then yeah. tho I honestly think it’d be helpless like it’s been since ever and the greater the resistance, the greater would be the control/oppression. I still bet on urban exodus, tho I know it’s way too utopian in a certain sense. perhaps doom is indeed the only future possible.

If there’s an urban exodus I honestly think it could be for the best. Don’t get me wrong. I grew up in a rural area my entire life and even hearing the noise pollution from cars is becoming a drain on my soul. I think cities are life sucking machines.

nah, but I fully defend and support urban exodus, that’s my whole point, lol 🤝

I think I’ve changed my mind 🤝

this is the way, brother 🤝🫡
