What concerns me is how little space remains for a genuinely progressive critique of institutional diversity practices – one capable of scrutinising how for many organisations and corporations symbolic representation has been a substitute for deeper reform, leaving it vulnerable to just this kind of backlash. It has also meant that the right has enjoyed a near monopoly on criticism of DEI, leaving it to frame it entirely on its own terms.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/aug/06/jason-arday-dei-race-issues-university-of-cambridge">https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/aug/06/jason-arday-dei-race-issues-university-of-cambridge</a> 2026-08-18T06:11:56Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8xsdznndrj9c3jyda2j560gyftm9d2et4jhs8v2r2lm6czfvctpszypgecaq93rrd095kpz3mzuqqed4ugkn2gyunwdkjcgd9fvcde5rxuc7s2px In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw56lfplp9vt8r5tz8da3clx502nm5790zg526x0xxecp0uhnrteg3l7dek'>nevent1q…7dek</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Waking up full of piss n vinegar today.<br/><br/>*ahem*<br/><br/>Sorry.

Online and off, I see people speak about it with an air of casualness as if one can so simply walk away from society on a whim with little prep or practice. It is much more challenging than you think, especially the logistics of getting enough daily calories if you plan to be out for longer than a week.<br/><br/>I&#39;m a hiker, not a survivalist, so I&#39;m not even claiming to have this skillset, but having spent time living outside for weeks and months on end in a variety of conditions, I am acutely aware where my knowledge ends and how absolutely reliant I am on existing supply chains.<br/><br/>I suspect most people would have a rough time if power and water were cut off to their flats for a single week and they had to live off only what was presently in their flat. And with climate disasters, weak infrastructure from capitalist/neolib efficiency, &#34;hybrid&#34; war, and even ransomware hacker groups running amok, this too is more likely than most think.<br/><br/>I think about this a lot, and how media makes survival during hardship seem so easy (or when it&#39;s hard, it&#39;s just vague hardship symbolized by dirtiness and tiredness). In TLOU S2, I have booed and hissed at the comically insufficient amount of gear carried by the protagonists and antagonists for their journeys outdoors, and I wonder if the inadequacy (or the degree of it) registers for most. The only media I can think of (that wasn&#39;t explicitly about hiking, e.g., Wild) that seems to somewhat accurately capture the difficulty of traveling by foot and living outdoors was The Fifth Season by N. K. Jemisin (and maybe the two sequels too?).<br/><br/>This is an insomniac ramble, maybe better suited for a longer form essay somewhere where I can go into detail, but having been up for the last 3 hours, well, shit.

Don&#39;t get a firearm (or knife or pepper spray or baton) if you can&#39;t learn to use it or doing so would be too risky to you. But looking at the past 20+ years of society and thinking those rules will apply under a rabid fascist regime if pure folly.<br/><br/>First aid can only be rendered if someone is there to drive the attackers away. If fascists jump you or start shooting at you, knowing how to bandage a grievous wound means very little if said fascists are still actively attacking.<br/><br/>&#34;Not everyone needs to learn self-defense. That&#39;s what *community* self-defense means.&#34;<br/><br/>Not everyone can, but everyone who *is able* should learn the means of defending themselves and others. *You* are part of the community, and you too need to defend it. Deferring it to some nebulous third party (even if it&#39;s &#34;antifa&#34;) is how you get warlords or are left with no one to protect you.<br/><br/>You (yes you personally) have some responsibility to learn to take care of yourself, be it disaster prep or self-defense, because if you aren&#39;t prepared, you become a burden on those who are. You become a drain on critical and limited resources. Yes, mutual aid exists, but we can stretch that much further and take better care of those who can&#39;t fully care for themselves if everyone who is able first takes care of themselves.<br/><br/>Don&#39;t get caught in a dangerous situation. Don&#39;t do so unarmed. Don&#39;t get injured. You have to learn all these skills. If you don&#39;t, it&#39;s okay. People will still be there for you.
