I agree with my comrade. One thing we should be pushing for is the
devolving of civilisation into smaller units. We could have handled this
epidemic democratically if we lived in small communes. The discussion we
had was based on the topic of bolo'bolo - which I take to be a really
enlightening read.
We could have sealed off our bolos and dealt with the epidemic in a
collective way, instead of using the security state and it's armed
bodies of oppression.
One of the amazing things about this crisis, though, is that I think it
has single handedly ended neoliberalism. I'm willing to call it- it's
over! We're in a war economy now, in Australia.
