without police and without state oppression, we can have things for free. . . View Quote Go ahead and try this shit in a world without police and see what happens. I have people on Facebook who agree with this idiot. I'm going to have my sons listen to this interview just so they can hear the words coming out of someone's mouth beside me when I rant about it. My boys have their heads on straight but haven't actually been exposed to people who advocate for theft and destruction of property before. Especially coming from a so called "respectable" source like NPR it will be an eye opener. ETA - The assholes at NPR don't have enough conviction to make the interview playable. You can only read it which will limit its reach compared to sending people a link to the audio. Every other story on the page can be played. Here's the direct link (left cold) to the program page. https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/ |

I did a little peeling back of the references, and Vicky cites The Nation and Al Jazeera America in her author credits.
If you go to The Nation and Al jizzy you find writer credits by Willie Osterweil. If you dig a little further you get a fem drummer for a band called Vulture Shit. it's a man, baby. |

Quoted: Link With lawlessness and organized looting threatening to take down Joe Biden (which is why I’ve been calling the riots “spontaneous pro-Trump rallies”—have they filed their in-kind contribution reports with the FEC by the way?), we’ve seen leading Democrats like AOC say looting is just desperate people trying to get necessities. Like flat screen TVs and Nike shoes, though I haven’t been able to find the FDA’s nutritional guidance on any of these necessities. In any case, NPR on Thursday offered an extended interview with Vicky Osterweil, author of a brand new book, In Defense of Looting. Here are some highlights from the interview: For people who haven’t read your book, how do you define looting? When I use the word looting, I mean the mass expropriation of property, mass shoplifting during a moment of upheaval or riot. That’s the thing I’m defending. . . Can you talk about rioting as a tactic? What are the reasons people deploy it as a strategy? It does a number of important things. It gets people what they need for free immediately, which means that they are capable of living and reproducing their lives without having to rely on jobs or a wage—which, during COVID times, is widely unreliable or, particularly in these communities is often not available, or it comes at great risk. That’s looting’s most basic tactical power as a political mode of action. It also attacks the very way in which food and things are distributed. It attacks the idea of property, and it attacks the idea that in order for someone to have a roof over their head or have a meal ticket, they have to work for a boss, in order to buy things that people just like them somewhere else in the world had to make under the same conditions. It points to the way in which that’s unjust. And the reason that the world is organized that way, obviously, is for the profit of the people who own the stores and the factories. So you get to the heart of that property relation, and demonstrate that without police and without state oppression, we can have things for free. . . Looting strikes at the heart of property, of whiteness and of the police. It gets to the very root of the way those three things are interconnected. And also it provides people with an imaginative sense of freedom and pleasure and helps them imagine a world that could be. And I think that’s a part of it that doesn’t really get talked about—that riots and looting are experienced as sort of joyous and liberatory. What are some of the most common myths and tropes that you hear about looting? . . . one is that looters are just acting as consumers: Why are they taking flat screen TVs instead of rice and beans? Like, if they were just surviving, it’d be one thing, but they’re taking liquor. All these tropes come down to claiming that the rioters and the looters don’t know what they’re doing. They’re acting, you know, in a disorganized way, maybe an “animalistic” way. But the history of the movement for liberation in America is full of looters and rioters. They’ve always been a part of our movement. More from the interview at link.

Silly thread title. As if Op is completely and totally unaware that NPR is staffed by communists. Communists hate this country and want to destroy it. So, why wouldn't they support their communist/racist/black militant anti-establishment BLM comrades and their antifa fascist communist comrades? It only makes perfect sense. The communists are working to tear down and destroy the Constitution and our Constitutional Republic.

So my question is.......Is she giving the book away? Does she expect a profit? Or should we just steal it from the evil book store?

I know, applying logic to the philosophy of someone like that is a lost cause. But still...
"it attacks the idea that in order for someone to have a roof over their head or have a meal ticket, they have to work for a boss, in order to buy things that people just like them somewhere else in the world had to make under the same conditions. " So what is she trying to say with that? That some imaginary rich class should just give the the meal ticket...and also 'release the worker for bondage'? If she's actually advocating a system where the producer produces independently and then sells the item to someone else, who has funds they earned themselves by doing the same thing...then yes I have zero problems with that system. But I also believe that a middleman facilitator is deserving of a cut. That facilitator could be the literal middle-man who hosts the location (real or cyberspace) where wares are sold, but also the middleman who provided up-front cash for the needed materials, as well as someone who expands their own production enterprise by hiring other people to do production work. |

The Armchair Psychologist says that she is presenting as science her own rationalizations which she uses to cope with her knowledge that her worldview, and that of her ilk, is wrong.
