  • Sorry but saying a 13th century high medieval peasant owned their hovel is just incorrect. Yeomen did, they owned their own land, but they didn’t live in hovels. Serfs and villeins were bound to their land, owned by a lord, and had to do uncompensated labor on the lord’s land for the “right” to live on the land they could not leave.

    Also, saying high medieval serfs paid “1/10 annual produce” completely ignores all the other feudal duties owed to their lord. Usually, serfs owed a third of their land value in produce to their lord off the peasant’s land, as well as not owning anything, while having to use the lord’s flour mill which was also heavily taxed. @[email protected] has it right.




  • I completely disagree. It’s not tribalism, it’s respecting coequal instance cultural differences. Each instance is self-governing, has an in group and an out group, and has culture associated with it as well as having voluntary association. If you want to erase individual instance identity and culture, good for you. Encourage that in your own instance or communities. We, as anarchists, pirates, neurodivergents and other things can decide these things for ourselves


  • How about b@ts, as in “bats” referring to many things, among them:

    • Landstreicher’s translation of Stirner’s “bats in the belfry” expression
    • “Bats,” referring to the expression of insanity for our neurodiverse and other friends
    • Bats, the animals, live in dark caves and only come out at night (pejorative for us being internet nerds)
    • It uses the @ symbol and fits all of your criteria
    • Bats are cool
