MOTHER :: GRANDMOTHER :: WIFE OF 34 YEARS :: VOTER :: COLLEGE STUDENT :: & AS OF JAN 2011, CONVICTED FELON

My “crime”? After years of suffering an incredibly painful illness and being  REFUSED BY ALL DOCTORS because I had no insurance, I became BEDRIDDEN AND SUICIDAL. I ORDERED PRESCRIPTION PAIN MEDS ONLINE and got my life back for the first time in almost a decade. Until last NOVEMBER 2010 when a 20 MAN SWAT TEAM with automatic rifles broke my door down and TOOK ME TO JAIL in handcuffs. All for LESS THAN A MONTH’S WORTH OF PILLS, which had a doctor given me would have been a non-issue. I am now a FELON FOR LIFE. I had no previous record.

I WAS NOT POOR. I just could not afford the ASTRONOMICAL $ REQUIRED BY ALL DOCTORS I contacted to start their testing.

I WAS ENTRAPPED BY CORPORATE GREED.
I AM THE 99%

I’m 13.

I shop Goodwill for clothes.

We haven’t gone shopping for food for about 2 weeks.

My cat has had fleas for months because we can’t afford the flea medication.

I normally eat those pizzas you just plop in the oven.

I have to babysit my brother.

I probably only see my mom about 3 times a WEEK.

I AM THE 99%.

wearethe99percent:

My mom raised me and taught me that there were always those less fortunate, and while I’m no one percenter I have it better than a lot. My mom can pay our rent, our grocery bills, and dress us reasonably nicely whilst saving for my sister and I’s college. She however works her ass off, while neither mine nor my sister’s dads help us at all. She has no friends, can’t buy herself new clothes very often, and may NEVER be able to retire. While I have it better than most, I still think the most important person in my world deserves better. We are the 99%, and we are NOT complacent with the current system. End corporate welfare, bring our jobs back to America, end our dependence on foreign countries, tax the 1% heavily to help pay off the national debt, and support socialized medicine so NO ONE goes without the important health care they need to survive. We’re living in a country where 1% of people control the lives of 99%. It’s time the 99% got mad about it.

Anarcha-feminism (also called anarchist feminism and anarcho-feminism) combines anarchism with feminism. It generally views patriarchy as a manifestation of involuntary hierarchy. Anarcha-feminists believe that the struggle against patriarchy is an essential part of class struggle, and the anarchist struggle against the state. In essence, the philosophy sees anarchist struggle as a necessary component of feminist struggle and vice-versa. L. Susan Brown claims that “as anarchism is a political philosophy that opposes all relationships of power, it is inherently feminist”.

Anarcha-feminism was inspired by late 19th and early 20th century authors and theorists such as anarchist feminists Emma Goldman, Voltairine de Cleyre and Lucy Parsons. In the Spanish Civil War, an anarcha-feminist group, Mujeres Libres (“Free Women”) linked to the Federación Anarquista Ibérica, organized to defend both anarchist and feminist ideas, while Stirnerist Nietzschean feminist Federica Montseny held that the “emancipation of women would lead to a quicker realization of the social revolution” and that “the revolution against sexism would have to come from intellectual and militant ‘future-women.’ According to this Nietzschean concept of Federica Montseny’s, women could realize through art and literature the need to revise their own roles.”

The major male anarchist thinkers—with the exception of Proudhon—have strongly supported gender equality. Bakunin, for example, opposed patriarchy and the way the law “subjects [women] to the absolute domination of the man.” He argued that “equal rights must belong to men and women” so that women can “become independent and be free to forge their own way of life.” Bakunin foresaw the end of “the authoritarian juridical family” and “the full sexual freedom of women.” Proudhon, on the other hand, viewed the family as the most basic unit of society and of his morality and thought women had the responsibility of fulfilling a traditional role within the family.

Since the 1860s, anarchism’s radical critique of capitalism and the state has been combined with a critique of patriarchy. Anarcha-feminists thus start from the precept that modern society is dominated by men. Authoritarian traits and values—domination, exploitation, aggression, competition, etc.—are integral to hierarchical civilizations and are seen as “masculine.” In contrast, non-authoritarian traits and values—cooperation, sharing, compassion, sensitivity—are regarded as “feminine,” and devalued. Anarcha-feminists have thus espoused creation of a non-authoritarian, anarchist society. They refer to the creation of a society, based on cooperation, sharing, mutual aid, etc. as the “feminization of society.”
