Taking the High Road

With the facebook purge just yesterday I thought I'd add some comments here.

I've already heard words like "This means War", "We have to Stand up and Fight!" and similar language and emotion.

I am certainly very sorry to see years of hard work simply erased and I certainly sympathize and empathize with those who have had their work removed.

However, I would point out that fight or flight is the lower brain response. Let's be a bit more creative! Let's not let them steer us into emotional responses that do little but play right into the lower brain/animal brain contrived traps.

There is plenty of room within out higher brain to come up with alternatives and creative solutions that simply baffle those who can't get beyond fight or flight. I suggest our community start reaching out to the intelligent within society. Intelligent people still want ethical outcomes. Ethics is still a powerful motivational force despite it's confusion by academia and the system. Intelligent people still understand that if the rules don't apply equally then that system doesn't work very well.

I consider Anarchists / Voluntaryists some of the brightest and clever people and I challenge and encourage them to be clever and use their creativity, raise their awareness and come up with solutions that blow peoples minds in wonderful ways!
