I’m an anthropologist, sometimes I occupy things & such.

I see anarchism as something you do not an identity...

...so don’t call me the anarchist anthropologist

but the fact that he, the CEO, said the very premise workers are in any way oppressed is ludicrous show’s he has no idea even what his …

I mean, if he’d said, “well most companies are shit but I’m trying to run a decent one” I’d have maybe believe him.

for some CEO to lecture me that I’m ignorant to imagine that people don’t like doing someone else’s bidding all day is pretty hilarious

I don’t know any people who run companies, but I know lots of people who work in them, in every possible capacity.

i.e., it has nothing to do with the real world. Ironic. He’s a boss. I grew up in a working class family & have had LOTS of actual jobs

I was taking Mark Goyder seriously as a decent guy until the end of the debate where he mocked me for saying workers follow orders all day

Similarly if you lie and someone calls you a liar, say they are making ad hominem arguments and are this disqualified

If you advocate baby-killing & they call you a baby-killer, say they are using ad hominems as they don’t have a rational argument

Say you advocate baby-killing. If someone objects on principle, call them “angry”, hence irrational, or “hateful” if they object strongly

It would be helpful someday to produce an explicit version of political playbook political hacks use in debate

my student from Goldsmiths is about to submit a PhD thesis on homelessness. Today she got an eviction notice.

they announced it despite my objections over time, knowing once announced, if I pulled out I’d look like an asshole

I tried hard to reschedule the Putney thing but was told it was completely impossible – despite it running for weeks

the most frustrating thing: I speak at end of Rojava conference, but don’t get to go to it because I have to be at Putney debates

what a weekend: tomorrow speak at Esoteric conference, Sunday Putney Debates AND Rojava Conference
