ucl-saguenay - Commonalities: The impasse of the current
system by Collectif Emma Goldman (fr) [machine translation]
(a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)
Attempted Extension Anarchism is a series of trial to explain the basics of this
philosophical and political movement and make them available through the development of
short texts on various subjects grouped in themes. All text can be found using the wording
"extension" and the names of topics. ---- The first text is part of the introduction to
the Test series, citing their reasons to revolt against the current political-economic
system. ---- The economic system, social and current policy leads to an impasse. ---- This
finding is based on ethical and scientific evidence: ---- The growing pollution of our
global ecosystems by the steady accumulation of waste on land and sea, the observable
climate change, nuclear disasters, the imminent depletion of fossil resources, the
worrying prospect of lack of phosphorus and other necessary items the composition of
fertilizer elements depleted by mass agriculture and waste of organic waste, industrial
farming that treats living beings as objects that can be piled up on each other, deploying
both hormone and antibiotics to prevent them from getting sick, making us sick at the same
time, fossil alternatives to conventional oil that are found to be even more polluting,
such as oil sands and hydraulic fracturing to dislodge shale gas, all its and several
other variables force us to see that capitalism and property led humanity into a
destructive mindset that she can not get out that in rejecting the so-called systems,
adopting a combination of traditional techniques and modern technologies ensure survival
and comfort while respecting the environment.
These evidences can be observed and quantified, and there is no doubt for us,
libertarians, after so many warnings of moderate reformers and environmentalists,
capitalism still has no intention of moderating not least even for the survival of the
human species. The selfishness and obsession with short-term profit of capitalist
enterprises, while ministers and leader say literally do not want to "destroy the economy
to save the environment," leads to devastation of our ecosystem and slavery the people.
Indeed, while the West lives in opulence, the world workers undergo inhuman
exploitation in mortally dangerous conditions, sustaining the wars financed by big capital
and the main victims are civilians, claiming bring release when corporations are funding
long decried tyrannical governments for their failure to respect the basic human rights
around the world.
All these facts make us realize the total absence of ethics in our modern
civilization and the importance of transforming from its deepest basics. Until there is no
change in the West, it will be some in the Third World since our acceptance of the system
allows our elites to keep it there chaos and destruction in their financial and selfish
interests.
But for a change to be truly effective, we must be aware of the roots of the
problem. These roots are the foundation of Western civilization, it becomes imperative to
deconstruct and expose their harmful effects, in addition to theorize about the
alternative to present. Reforms not touching that political structures without addressing
the fundamentals of the economy will ultimately consist in a temporary beautification of a
system doomed to failure.
