permaculture

[Kelda Lorax <kelda@riseup.net>]

I'm tired of it being okay for older men to pick on me when I disagree. 
I know I'm supposed to defer, but my strategy is just to remember. No 
lawsuit here, but people DO ask me my opinions of other people in the 
permaculture community, especially as it pertains to social justice 
lens. It's called 'digging your own hole'.

Darrel Frey (I think?) said of my comment about white people being 
racist was something like "what a load of bullcrap, what idiot thinks up 
this stuff?" erked me.
Academics working on anti-racism have thought it up by the way, which I 
echo. I let it go. But Lawrence, that was okay? You probably have access 
to exact wording. Or it might have been you that said it.

And when Christopher said "self righteous self flagellating 
masturbation" that was too much for me. Crude, personal. But not for you 
Lawrence?

I see Chris has a private email to me that I've only glanced at. But in 
case you're thinking of dropping me from the list, how many insults are 
we supposed to accept before saying that we'll remember?? I am not going 
to recommend people travel to Belize to take his PDC if a student wants 
to learn from a strong social justice lens. Jason, is that a threat? I 
could have been more clear in exactly how the mayor lost his job, maybe 
you were thinking I was threatening a smear campaign. No, nor is it 
necessary. Lots of students want to learn from people who see 
permaculture through a strong social justice lens. Just as lots of 
people want to vote against a mayor who uses insults as a way of getting 
things done.
