READY YOUR FLAMING ANTLERS, WE'RE TAKING OVER THE CITY: TO THE BASTILLE!

I get weepy when I think about the felling of the Bastille. Hello enlightenment political theory, hello birth of the Declaration of the Rights of Man, hello Tennis Court Oath. And with that we weep at the inception of rationalism and its enabling of colonialism and discrimination. It's still beautiful. O! Felled Bastille! Let me be your Sans-Culottes. Let me be your Foucaultian overthrower. Let me smash the panopticon with you, fair reader.

here's all you can fit into a damn weekend. reprinted from the antlered list. to get on said email list, just ask: antlered(at)gmail.com
