#WORLD #WORLDWIDE #INTERNATIONAL #ANARCHISM #News #Journal #Update - (en) asr anarshism: Break the spell of Obedience

 The ruling class, whether they are so-called noble, well-intentioned, and men of

the people, whether in a small organization like the political party or in a
large organization like the government, needs obedient and subservient people. So
by governing them, the ruling class can advance their goals, even if these goals
are so-called useful, popular, and constructive. ---- Everyone and every group
that seeks power or is part of the ruling class? has a set of internalized
beliefs: ? Belief in eternal stability and even the necessity for inequality and
class structure, belief in the need for administration institutions to guide
other people as wrong-headed, witless, and misguided, believing in the need to
use force and violence to achieve their goals.

Power is needed to subdue the people and exercise authority. Power is the ability
of a group or group to achieve its goals or advance its interests by forcing
other members of society to do something against their own wishes.

Violence is always accompanied by power. The violence that robs people of
autonomy, freedom, and humanity and enslaves them. Slavery means becoming
objects. A thing. All our social relationships and backgrounds that made us human
are ripped apart and ignored in order to perform a specific task for the benefit
of others. Things called workers that have a special purpose which is extracted
from them and they are interchangeable. Things called women whose only purpose in
life is to satisfy the desires of others, housekeeping, giving-birth, and
childbearing. Objects called races and ethnicities that have been stigmatized as
the sin and misery of the time to focus the hatred of the majority. Objects
called slaves that are bought and sold as goods. Objects that become corpses to
teach others a lesson.

These acts of violence are institutionalized in society as hierarchies.
Hierarchies, these structural inequalities that the ruling class utilizes to
seize power and subordinate the people. All current governments use racism,
patriarchy, theocracy, capitalism to maintain and increase the influence of their
power, but the degree of use of hierarchies in a government depends on where they
gained power, giving each a specific flavor.

This is why even so-called "communist" or "socialist" governments do not give up
on capitalism or will return to it soon because capitalism is one of the most
effective ways to exercise power and increase its sphere of influence.
Government, with any flag color and symbol, with any name and title, will not be
the way to our freedom. They always alienate us so that they can rule us.

Obedience is a spell; A series of chains called the belief in obedience to
superiors, whether God, humans, or other abstract ideas, and the only way to
break the spell of obedience is insubordination. Not for a temporary time, ?but
forever. Rebellion not from one form of slavery, but from all the dimensions of
power that play a role in our slavery. Disobedience requires networks of support,
solidarity, and compassion: networks of insubordination and rebellion. These
networks of mutual aid and solidarity are the seeds for the blossoming flowers of
our future free society. A future where we do not become alienated from our
society. A future in which we don't slave away for the sake of an abstract idea,
in the name of God, society, religion, nation, and the promise of the benefits
afterward. The future in which we play a role in society based on our ability and
ethos, and people are no longer restricting our freedom, but increasing its scope.

Let's break the spell of obedience. Let's be an anarchist.
