White text reads: A relevant quote about ICE
Black text reads: He explained to Atro that he now understood why the army was organized as it was. It was indeed quite necessary. No rational form of organization would serve the purpose. He simply had not understood that the purpose was to enable men with machine guns to kill unarmed men and women easily and in great quantities when told to do so. Only he still could not see where courage, or manliness, or fitness entered in.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 2018, one of my favourite #ScienceFiction novelists, #UrsulaKLeGuin, died. An ardent #feminist, #anarchist, and subversive, LeGuin wrote to remind us a better world is possible. If you haven't yet, go and read #TheDispossessed and #TheLeftHandOfDarkness.

Quote from chapter one of the book The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin:

"[...] He was clearly aware of only one thing, his own total isolation. The world had fallen out from under him, and he was left alone.

He had always feared that this would happen, more than he had ever feared death. To […]

I loved #TheEarthseaTrilogy by #UrsulaKLeGuin, so I wanted to REALLY adore the #SciFi classic #TheDispossessed. Anarres,an anarchist poor,grey society vs Urras,the patriarchal-oligarchic-capitalist planet.None of them 100%heaven or hell.What's not to like?This is an essay,not a novel.DNF?😔

And the #TheDispossessed is, in those terms, about the #ZeframCochrane of the #Ekumen (who is an #anarchosocialist to Cochrane's #neoliberal #capitalist).

loved it. Other recently read books about desert worlds, colonialism, and revolution I highly recommend include #TheDispossessed and #SevenPillarsofWisdom. I read #Dune a long time ago and that's aight too. Also #TotalRecall is my favorite #Schwarzenegger movie. Anyway how you been?

You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.

we know our brotherhood. We know it because we have had to learn it. We know that there is no help for us but from one another, that no hand will save us if we do not reach out our hand. And the hand that you reach out is empty, as mine is.

"It is our suffering that brings us together. It is not love. Love does not obey the mind, and turns to hate when forced. The bond that binds us is beyond choice. We are brothers in what we share. In pain, which each of us must suffer alone, in hunger, in poverty, in hope,

Rereading "The Dispossessed" by Ursula K LeGuin. I'm always discovering something new in her words. The world became that much darker when she passed away...
