Comradeship

“Like a new invention, a new philosophical idea is always both liberating and dangerous in an unprecedented way. Like a new flag, it rallies previously unknown comrades to action. Like a giant mythological bird, it protects numerous territories even while abandoning others to the flames” (Harman 2002, 79).

“Facing the catastrophic present and futureless future resulting from the extinction wars waged against everything living, demands that we—earth workers—unite. It demands that we recognise each other as Comrades in a collective struggle for living worlds against the racial-ecocidal-neocolonial capitalist death-form” (D’Souza and Staal 2024, 14)
