This is a projection in Oakland. You can find the original art here.

The way-back machine found a March 2023 Reddit post by Aaron Bushnell where he said, “I’ve realized that a lot of the difference between me and my less radical friends is that they are less capable of imagining a better world than I am. I follow YouTubers like Andrewism that fill my head with concrete images of free, post-scarcity communities, and it makes me so much more prepared to reject things about the current world, because I’ve imagined how things could be and that helps me see how extremely bullshit things are right now.”

If you care to see the full quote, you can check @tinythunders on Twitter or Andrewism’s YouTube Channel, the community tab.

He made the ultimate sacrifice for what he believed, and I hope we never stop talking about him.

I think a lot of news sites have already moved on

Most news sites moved on before it happened. They would never talk about it because it's bad for them. They aren't a reason he shouldn't be talked about everywhere else.

moved on before it happened

Uhhm

They aren’t a reason he shouldn’t be talked about everywhere else.

I just meant that since news sites affect the general discourse so much, I'm not feeling too optimistic about the topic being talked about. People are so quick to move on to new topics these days.
