#Antimilitarism in not #pacifism. Altough there are overlapping motivations, they are different, where pacifism bears a deep moral component and anti-militarism has stronger analytic and strategic leanings.

Anti-militarism focussus more on the societal and structural effects of how the military is organised and what function it plays for the interests of the bourgeois class, the enforcement outwards for the state and internally in disciplining the #workingclass. This can also be the case for pacifism.

Anti-militarism however is not the rejection of the understanding that in the case of social revolution, the bourgeoisie will mobilize against the revolution and the need for (armed) #selfdefense against this. I will post more on this in the near future. As these questions are very important and need to seriously updated to a 21st century theory.

The wars in #Ukraine, #Sudan, #Palestine, #Syria, #Kurdistan, #Lebanon, #Venezuela, #Cuba and many other places, and the rise of militarism across the whole western hemisphere, has shown us that it is very important to understand these dynamic, understand our own need for security, and the need to be able to put something in opposition to the #militarism and #imperialism of the state and bourgeoisie, in order to prevent us from being dragged in their wars, become footsoldiers in defense of other regimes which we don't support either, or stand on the side as bystanders, instead of developing a truly revolutionary alternative that is able to navigate its own course.

The only thing the #US and #Israel are proofing to #Iran is that only acquiring nuclear weapons can bring long lasting security to their interests. They irreliable way of having negotiations and breaking them, the const at new escalations etc. Are proof the US is preying on every state that doesn't submit to their hegemony.

That said, no to imperialist wars, no to fundamentalists regimes. In the end the we, people are paying for these war with our lives, our blood, our livelihoods. The money of every bomb dropped could have been invested in the future of our children. Everything a bomb is dropped, it indiscriminately destroys the future of people just like us.

@thelma Welcome! A doctoral researcher in sociology here. I study #antimilitarism in fact! I am also fond of philosophy of science, especially #ontology and sometimes I post about that too. Great to have you here!

#introduction

Hi Mastodon,

I'm a PhD candidate in #philosophy at the #UniversityOfHelsinki , focusing on #metaphysics, #ontology, #processphilosophy and philosophy of #biology. I also study #theology , in which I'm most interested in philosophy of religion, #processtheology , the relationship between science and religion, and the role of #religion in matters of conflict and #peace.

I'm looking forward to share things & have conversations about #research in my fields, but also about
- #books (I read #nonfiction #scifi and #specfic the most)
- #antimilitarism , #nuclearban , #nucleardisarmament
- #pedagogy (since I occasionally work in #education )
- #games: #videogames, #boardgames & #tcg
- #movies
- #birds

Let me know if you are tooting (:D) about any of these things!

This video shows the footage of the attack by #Israel on several clearly marked as medical vehicles. While helping civilians these rescue workers were attacked by the #IDF, after which other rescue workers come to aid those aiding, also to become a target. In total 3 medical workers got killed, 6 people were wounded.

These attacks follow a similar pattern in Israel's way of waging war, more and more targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure with no respect for peoples lives and livelihood. Such attacks are reminiscent of the attacks on a medical convoy near Rafah in #Gaza (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rafah_paramedic_massacre) which was then attempted to cover up in which 15 aid workers, including eight members of the Palestine Red Crescent Society, five civil defense, and one #UN agency employee were killed.

Zeker drie hulpverleners gedood bij Israëlische aanvallen in Zuid-Libanon

Een Libanees ambulance-team dat beschoten collega's te hulp schoot werd zelf ook doelwit van aanvallen. Vervolgens werden ze geholpen door een derde team, maar ook daar werd weer op geschoten. Een van de redders filmde die reddingsactie met zijn bodycam.

What might a working class anti-militarism might look like? How might we build such a movement of anti-capitalist war resistance? Capitalism means war,

And now tk the statement:

"Wars of Power Never Liberate

The blood of the defenseless stains the hands of tyrants and empires alike.

In the clash between global imperialism and reactionary oppressors masked as "humanitarian intervention" ordinary people always pay with their lives. Since the start of the modern nation-state model and decades before this war, Iran's people have been oppressed by nationalist and religious fascism : massacres of political prisoners, ideological terror, gender oppression, ethnic discrimination, culture assimilation, and sanctions-driven economic strangling. Dozens of uprisings from city streets to Kurdistan mountains met only bullets and torture cells. Now aerial bombs rain on homes and infrastructure while internal repression tightens like a noose.

This is no liberation. Every state-orchestrated military strike, even draped in "salvation" rhetoric crushes those with no power, no voice. Stop the official narratives. Ask the real question: WHO PROFITS FROM THIS SLAUGHTER?

Some cheer superpower bombs out of hatred for one regime or revenge against another while on both sides, civilians are the ones being killed. This is what Nietzsche warned about: “He who fights monsters should see to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.”
When violence, even against an oppressive power, is justified without regard for the deadly human consequences, the line between liberation and domination is blurred. We anarchists of this Land reject ALL state warmongering. Authoritarian governments in any form, with any excuse threaten the lives they claim to protect. We have been and remain opposed to this power logic that turns human lives into tools.

What is defensible is not state-led wars nor imperialist projects, but the comprehensive organization of society by the people themselves. Forms of popular solidarity and horizontal organization of societies, formed voluntarily against any form of domination.. In Iran's multi-ethnic geography, this only works if we smash extremist nationalism and fascism, not homes, not water systems, not power grids. Build ethnic community unions to stop capitalism from weaponizing "nationalism" for a new repression.

Liberation demands human solidarity, community self-organization, and total rejection of hierarchy.

No to STATE WARS, Yes to CLASS WAR! 
No one is free until ALL are free! 
No mullah, No King 
Woman Life Freedom!"
