hmm, what would be the more loving act - to join no borders in solidarity with asylum-seekers and other migrants at their carnival, to join in the noise demonstration in solidarity with prisoners at hmp wandsworth, or to join reclaim love at the above detailed event?

clue - not the third option. a load of self-indulgent tosh. either of the first two would be a more active form of love, with an actual point to it. love is a verb after all.

Some people can take more hating down than others, before they need loving up again.

I imagine that lots of campaigning at the front of oppression and cruelty could leave a person wondering if more than a handfull of the population are the same kind of human as people whom give a care.

Hopefully this love festival will provide opportunities for campaigners to get together and enlighten each other, without the risk of intimidation, arrest, badlisting, and demonstrations of soul crushing depression.

Enjoy, enlighten, enthuse, encourage.

so we should go to reclaim love because it will make us feel better, rather than try to change the way things are?

spending time with people who actively try to change things is something i find really uplifting. i've been to reclaim love events before and found them soul-crushingly depressing. lots of people talking about love but not actually doing any real loving.

as for:
"I imagine that lots of campaigning at the front of oppression and cruelty could leave a person wondering if more than a handfull of the population are the same kind of human as people whom give a care.

since when was a prisoner solidarity noise demo a "demonstration of soul crushing depression"? sounds like you never took part in one, mate. they are actually a lot of fun, really positive and life-enhancing. lots of people show their love by singing, shouting, making noise, making music, waving and smiling at the people looking out their prison windows (who generally shout and sing and smile and wave lots back - they are happy to see and hear us!).

you need to get out more, and to remember that love is a verb. you don't do love by talking about it, you do it by action.

and i don't want to feel better about the shit in this world, i want to change the shit. fuck your fake positivity, keep it real people.

love and rage

love without rage is just sentimentality.

if you're not angry you aren't paying attention.

i agree with lover, 100%

let's make some noise! let's dance at the prison gates with love and rage! sod the useless hippies!
