"An artist’s game for collaborative utopian visioning ... whereby players use backcasting and modified consensus to collectively ‘remember’ the stories of how their ancestors built a social-ecological utopia."

Friedrich Engels is to anarchism what Jordan Peterson is to Marxism.
Anyone presenting his critique as legitimate should be embarrassed.
And yet, ironically, they lack the knowledge to be aware of how embarrassing they're being.

I use the game Solarpunk Futures by @SolarpunkClub as a helpful guide, following something they said: “IRL/RFN” In Real Life/Right Fucking Now. Took some ideas from a book I got today, then designed some stickers and put them up during my afternoon walk.

This work has been intersecting with readings from a class about solarpunk put on by @SolarpunkClub with the @InstSocEco. All of this is making me want to write more about capitalist hegemony/realism, and how art, aesthetics and literature can help us see new futures.

Today we commemorate the defeat of colonizer Captain Cook, who was killed by Native Hawaiians, our Kānaka Maoli relatives, on this day in 1779 after his third intrusive visit to the Ka Pae ʻĀina o Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian Islands)

ALT HONORING A LEGACY OF RESISTANCE ON THIS DAY February 14, 1779 THE KANAKA MAOLI DEFEAT CAPTAIN COOK on a text graphic with Hawaiian landscape & people in the background

ALT Same design elements as first graphic but this text reads “"Hawaiians killing Captain James Cook on Valentine's Day really is the greatest act of love - love for your people, your land, your culture. Love as resistance. Love passed onto future generations of Känaka Maoli who live in the legacy of their ancestor's resilience. True love." -Terisa Siagatonu”

I see #solarpunk as a good aesthetic/literary/artistic way of conveying the social and political points of social ecology, post-scarcity anarchism, and communalism. Art is political. As they say, a picture can say a thousand words.
