dunno, but I've been an anarchist for a while, and I feel it every time I see someone stand up to these assholes I paid taxes to, that one time I made enough money to pay taxes.
solidarity with the free, or at least hoping-to-be-less-constrained, peoples of the world, certainly. we need something shorter.
i also find an odd kind of half solidarity with my ancestors who fought in the second world war, against what america is trying to be, and sort of always was, but were very much flag waving 'rarara america' patriots the rest of their lives at the same time.
point being that the non-shitty people from this awful shit hole country aren't going to begrudge anyone ditching the awful garbage that gets made here. 'made in america' mostly means prison slaves anyway. edit:the people who make the decisions and own the stuff here have no common interest with the common people. we are all bludgeoned or manipulated into not putting up a fight. which isn't to say there aren't enough insane fanatics and bloated military budget to be a serious threat to the free world, but, like, please fuck our shit up. it's not like any of us ever see any benefit from it anyway.
