#collapsology
Note
To continue on the alien topic, I believe we talked about it together but just in case we hadn't: do you know about the application of collapsology for aliens? (I believe it has a specific name but I forgot about it). It's a theory explaining that yes, aliens exist and has existed and yes, they did look for us and are looking for us/other life forms but like all civilisation through our history, they've just all just reach a peak at some point and then collapse. So actually we'll probably never know if aliens exist because no civilisation is able not to collapse before its technology is good enough to reach other planets.
Yup, I know about that actually! It's one of the reasons why it seems unlikely that we'll ever meet aliens, even if statistically speaking I'm pretty damn sure they exist somewhere. But hey, maybe we can do alien archeology one day <=== in denial of the fact that our civilisation would not, in this paradigm, be exempt from the "no civilisation is able to avoid collapse before it develops space travel" rule

Asked of attendees in a session I was part of a couple of days ago
“In the midst of doomism and collapsology, where are you focusing your energies? How do you stay resilient and on-purpose in the face of the barrage of bad news?”
How would you answer?

Announcements
Shinewhite Phone Zap
Anti-racist, communist prisoner held in North Carolina, James “Shinewhite” Stewart, is facing severe repression and deprivation at Maury C.I. where he was recently transferred; he's been in solitary since he was transferred, denied food and his blood pressure medicine, and had various pieces of property and correspondence stolen, as well as mail tampered with. He is asking people to make urgent calls and emails to Secretary Eddie M. Buffaloe of the NC Department of Public Safety in order to demand SW's transfer out of state (called "interstate compact") to West Virginia:
919-733-4080
Shinewhite wanted to share that his politics have evolved in such a way that they no longer align with the Revolutionary Intercommunal White Panther Organization (RIWPO), so he's stepping down from his role as National Spokesperson for the organization. However, Shinewhite still believes deeply in Intercommunalism and the liberatory vision of the Revolutionary Intercommunal Black Panther Party (RIBPP).

Encore un Terminator 3 ?! "Oui, mais celui-ci est chapeauté par Maître James Cameron en personne" nous susurre le marketing (alors que c'était déjà le cas du précédent). La bande-annonce m'avait happé en promettant à demi-mot le démêlage d'un intrigant distingo entre "futur" et "destin". Sémiologiquement parlant, on reste un peu sur notre faim mais à l'arrivée ce n'est pas plus mal : ce Terminator n'y va pas par quatre chemins et a la gentillesse de caler ses expositions sur l'action. Et de l'action, pléthore on en trouve.
Politiquement, Terminator: Dark Fate envoie davantage de signaux contradictoires qu'un schizophrène sous amphétamines pendant un date tinder : la première heure se propose de documenter en loucedé les mécaniques de l'immigration mexicaine (tout y passe : robotisation de la masse salariale, passeurs, camps de rétention, de toute façon il y a plus de boulot la boucle est bouclée le système a la tête sous l'eau) mais une fois arrivé au Texas, Schwarzy prend le relais pour exhiber sa collection de fusils à pompe et défendre par la même occasion les vertus du Deuxième Amendement. Il faut croire que le target audience de Terminator ne vote pas forcement Bernie Sanders, ce qu'on admet volontiers.
Si Dark Fate n'a pas la viscéralité des opus de Cameron, il parvient néanmoins à en reconstituer ponctuellement la saveur et a quelques jolis tours dans son sac. Tim Miller, excellent metteur en scène d'action qui avait du bricoler du setpiece épique avec peu de dineros sur Deadpool, semble s'éclater avec ce budget quatre fois plus conséquent. Mackenzie Davis et Linda Hamilton ont tellement de charisme que si le charisme était du carburant elles pourraient faire concourir une Ford Model T aux 24h du Mans (aucune idée d'où me sort cette analogie). Le scénario, bien dans son temps, s'avère presque plus pessimiste que ses prédécesseurs en dessinant une morale aux airs de maxime survivaliste : on évite pas l'apocalypse mais on préserve nos armes pour la combattre.

several friends of mine got into collapsology and i'm a bit worried coz theyre getting veryyyy anxious and closed-minded about it, i'd like to give them more anticiv/anarchist takes on the subject.
i've read desert a while ago and liked it, do you have any other anticiv zine recs ?
unfortunately i dont know anything other than Desert honestly. Desert obviously has a good bibliography, especially Sam Mbah & I. E. Igareway's African Anarchism and the Fifth Estate article on that topic. but its principle reference for the climate science, James Lovelock, is a guy who's work was fringe in the 70s and is now tremendously outdated. it's kind of strange that Desert wants to rehabilitate them, i think thats just a reflection of what the author/s had access to.
Bordiga of all people wrote a proto-anticiv pamphlet called "Onward, Barbarians!"—late in his life Bordiga's thought seems have developed in an esoteric direction focusing particularly on the indigenous American situation, but in a manner more like Montaigne's than Aragorn!'s, for example when In Junitzio Death is Not Scary he praises human sacrifice and says that we only think it's a bad thing because of capitalism. we are already not very far from Zerzan who would like to abolish language and all the rest. the pamphlet is fine but it's alternative vision to collapse is weakly presented & its mostly attacking state socialism which isn't so much of a problem these days!
i went to look and see if Wolfi wrote anything about this and he did, called Barbaric Thoguhts: On a Revolutionary Critique of Civilization, and scanning it it seems good to me. he gives a useful somewhat technical definition of civilization as "areas of concentrated human population separated from the areas where this population gets its sustenance" which is the best i've encountered so far (the term is a very problematic one). Wolfi is also pro-revolutionary while Desert is anti-revolutionary so they might complement one another. He also attacks primitivists who make arguments from what he calls 'biocentrism' by saying that "in reality, biocentrism does not challenge humanism at its roots. It simply seeks to expand the moral values of humanism to include all of Life and not just the Human" and that in place of revolution they await an imminent civilizational collapse "where civilized reality is simply peeled away to immediately reveal a pristine undamaged Wild Nature" which is funny to me because its exactly the same criticism that Nyx makes of primitivism in Cyber-Nihilism. he spends a few paragraphs attacking collapsism, what such a collapse would entail and so forth in a way i find convincing. this might be a good one for your purpose. he also attacks Montaigne!
looking up "collapsism" (preparing for an immanent collapse) i found another attack on the idea, the Ideology of Collapse, but it's crap. the arguments are either basic fallacies, non-sequiturs or unsupported assertions. but if the situation is really serious you can puff up something like this by saying "as you can see, it's already been dismantled here..." with a lot of confidence, or else adding it towards the end of a list of resources and hoping they don't click on it. whether or not the situation warrants cheap tricks like that is up to you.
idk, anyone else got anything?

S3E103 - COLLAPSOLOGY 101
This week, @rtrixie, @elementarynationalism and a third panellist who is, for legal reasons, definitely not Jordan Peterson discuss artificial intelligence, Neo-Luddism and the arrival of the 21st century techno-Stasi this society deserves. Lukas undergoes the final stage of metamorphosis into Peter Schiff and Sam makes it further down memory lane to anti-capitalism.
