Monsieur DelafinDaar zijn ze weer met hun favoriete riedeltje: "Er is geen alternatief"Deze keer niet als argument voor besparingen, maar voor het maken van extra schulden! <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/NVA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NVA</a> keert met de wind als het hun uit komt.Voor oorlog is er geld, voor pensioenen, gezondheidszorg of het klimaat, niks.Budgetten gelden blijkbaar alleen maar als er geen monsterwinsten mee geboekt kunnen worden.Het mankeert N-VA duidelijk niet aan een gebrek aan verbeeldingsvermogen, je mag het gewoon niet tegen hen gebruiken.<a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopArizona" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopArizona</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Begroting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Begroting</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Belgi%C3%AB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#België</a>

Michael J. CoffeyNonviolent action (<a href="https://scholar.social/tags/nva" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nva</a>) for today: protest.Yes, it's often the thing (sometimes the *only* thing) that everyone thinks of, but nonviolent protest works. Get out there with some other people and make some noise. Be clear on what you want.Also, stay safe and secure, and report on what happened--but in ways that don't non-consensually reveal other people's identities who were there. (e.g., blur faces, only take pics of signs, etc.) Protests work.

Guy_VO<Met haar simplistische regel “onvoldoende reizigers, dus geen bussen” mist de minister wellicht de essentie. De vraag waarom er op een bepaalde lijn weinig reizigers zijn, wordt niet gesteld. Nochtans zou uit het antwoord zomaar eens kunnen blijken dat het mechanisme precies andersom werkt: “onvoldoende bussen, dus geen reizigers”.> <a href="https://mastodon-belgium.be/tags/AnnickDeRidder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AnnickDeRidder</a> <a href="https://mastodon-belgium.be/tags/NVA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NVA</a> <a href="https://mastodon-belgium.be/tags/mobiliteit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mobiliteit</a> <a href="https://mastodon-belgium.be/tags/OpenbaarVervoer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenbaarVervoer</a> <a href="https://deanderekrispeeters.wordpress.com/2025/03/26/waarom-vraaggestuurde-mobiliteit-in-werkelijkheid-aanbodgestuurde-mobiliteit-is/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://deanderekrispeeters.wordpress.com/2025/03/26/waarom-vraaggestuurde-mobiliteit-in-werkelijkheid-aanbodgestuurde-mobiliteit-is/</a>

Michael J. CoffeyToday's nonviolent action is learning. More specifically, learning about how systems work. My own thinking was permanently shifted when I read Peter Senge's "The Fifth Discipline," years ago, even though it's _a lot_ of book. However, I'm in the middle of <a href="https://spore.social/@bethsawin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bethsawin</a> 's book "Multisolving" right now and it strikes me as a far more approachable way of seeing how large, complex systems behave, and finding the leverage points for making positive change.<a href="https://islandpress.org/books/multisolving" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://islandpress.org/books/multisolving</a><a href="https://scholar.social/tags/nva" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nva</a>

Wäre es nach der <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/DDR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DDR</a> gegangen, wäre ich während meines Studiums zum Reserve-Offizier ausgebildet worden.

Michael J. CoffeyToday's nonviolent action is to differentiate your thinking a little. Be clear about the differences between:- There's nothing that can be done - I don't know what to do - I don't know IF there's something to do - I know what to do but don't want toIt's too easy to lump these all together and do nothing. If separated, next steps are easier to identify: pick a new focus; ask others working on it; learn or plan; and find another source of motivation (or take a brief rest).<a href="https://scholar.social/tags/nva" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nva</a>

Michael J. CoffeyToday's nonviolent action (<a href="https://scholar.social/tags/nva" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nva</a>) is to be encouraging. If you've got the mental/emotional bandwidth for it, and someone else expresses frustration or despair or fatalism or nihilism, your job in that moment is to just talk about why it matters. Describe how you think this action or that one will lead to something else that makes a real difference. Plot a course first to a small actionable step to be taken, and how that snowballs in the right direction.1/2?

Michael J. CoffeySome folks standing out in front of the post office today 'demonstrating' in support of federal workers (holding up thank-you signs to the postal workers and talking to passersby).
