The comments on that post are exactly what you would expect, but it is still funny that Reddit of all places is opening up to the truth.
The fact of the matter is that our ideas aren't as out there as you might believe. Don't be ashamed of what you believe; in fact, use every reasonable chance you have to spread anti-tech ideals. It's the only hope we have of making real progress (rather than technological "progress").
"202. It would be hopeless for revolutionaries to try to attack the system without using some modern technology. If nothing else they must use the communications media to spread their message. But they should use modern technology for only one purpose: to attack the technological system."
Wilderness FrontOne viral post later and Instagram suspended our account 🤔 (Of course, we sent an appeal. It should hopefully be back up by tomorrow.)
Our account is back up, but they did take down that last post about David Gelernter being a pedophile for "supporting" "dangerous individuals or groups". It's interesting to reflect on how rightist 'extremists' and leftist 'extremists' can post just about anything on the internet, but anti-tech 'extremists' (despite being far lower in number) get consistently censored & banned for the most benign content. Hence the need for expanding into IRL organizing.
🌲Wilderness Front is an organization that recognizes that modern techno-industrial society is inherently at odds with both freedom and the health of the natural world. Continued technological progress will only plunge us deeper into a techno-dystopia. We seek to end the techno-industrial system to restore wild nature and human freedom.🌲
