bumping !! currently the most pressing need is more folks in the care web to provide a place to sleep a couple nights a week or so until karen has access to more stable housing 🙏🏽

pls share + if you’ve benefited from karen’s work / advocacy / knowledge sharing, consider joining the care web

please contact @leftie-diskaurs.bsky.social if you’re able to help in the form of letting karen access a couch to sleep on or laundry or anything else like that

Involuntary treatment is not care. BC is spearheading its violent rise Last month, BC NDP Premier David Eby announced his party would expand prisons and hospital psychiatric wards under the facade of “compassionate, secure care” and “public safety” to involuntarily incar...

involuntary treatment is one facet of an extensive system that criminalizes, incarcerates, and generates profit off of the surplus population,

ie. the disabled, the disposable, the dangerous, the deviant, the defective.

and under capitalism, everyone has proximity to becoming surplus.

involuntary treatment

is a housing & class issue.
is a racial justice issue.
is an abolition issue.
is a mad liberation issue.
is a queer & trans liberation issue.
is a disability justice issue.
is an anti-colonial issue.
is a drug liberation issue.

reducing community transmission in the spirit of collective responsibility is a love practice that is liberatory to every bodymind where abledness is temporary.

For those who would like to explore a deep dive into this practice, check out our offering of Processing Rage starting this fall.

Our rage is rooted in collective love, and we so look forward to raging and loving with you.

May we approach intentional anger expression as a politicized, transformative justice practice such that we can navigate conflict, boundaries, and rupture in more loving and less harmful and hurtful ways.

Anger expression is not inherently violent, and we can practice consensual, structured, more connecting forms of anger expression as a skill that can be learned and practiced.

Anger is a liberatory mobilizer that can empower us to take action for interpersonal and collective change. And as powerful as it is, it wants to be expressed and released.

To co-create non-violent, more liberatory worlds, we must embody non-violent, more liberatory ways of relating — with ourselves, our emotional experiences, and our communities. Central to this is practicing intentional anger processing.
