Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules: 0. Post content that is thoughtful and relevant to social liberation from an anarchist, autonomous, antifascist perspective.

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don't be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.

Declaration of Educational Warfare — A Manifesto from the Classroom Frontlines

> This is not a reform. This is a rebellion.

I wrote this as a public declaration—because the education system is not broken.

It was built this way.

What we call “school” is often just a pipeline: from trauma, to obedience, to silence. This isn’t about fixing it. This is about burning it down and building something that actually nurtures minds.

Wow, I really appreciate this response. You’re right—what we’re dealing with isn’t just an education system that’s “not working,” it’s one that’s working exactly as intended. The standardization of thought, emotional suppression, and the illusion of choice all serve the same machinery.

You nailed it with: “Our most powerful weapon is questioning and reading from all sources.” That’s literally the whole point of my piece—if we aren’t allowed to ask who benefits from our ignorance, then we’re not being educated… we’re being indoctrinated. Thank you for bringing that clarity.
