  • Hello. I am psychiatrically disabled and neurodivergent; I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia and agoraphobia with panic disorder.

    I will share a bit of my story:

    Since I was 16 years old, I have been interested in social movements. At that age, I started attending demonstrations and getting somewhat involved in them. It was then that I had a group of friends who were like brothers to me, although they were not involved in social change. Around the age of 19, I began to regularly go to an occupied social center, and although I didn’t get too involved in the management or daily affairs of the center, I went there almost every day; I attended some assemblies and debates, but the activity I enjoyed the most was the punk concerts. It was during this time that I began to radicalize, especially after my involvement in the Indignados movement, in which I participated a lot, including assemblies; however, I realized that it had a somewhat reformist nature. After some time following this radicalization, I started to feel pursued and spied on by the police. I was about 21 years old then. Additionally, my group of friends turned their backs on me, those I considered brothers. My family forced me to see a psychiatrist due to this paranoia, and shortly after, the psychiatrist started medicating me. I began my treatment at 22 years old. Now I am over 30. Since I started treatment, things have gone from bad to worse. That’s why I plan to stop taking antipsychotic medication; I have been without a psychiatrist for several years because the public healthcare system in Spain is messed up. As soon as I can, I will suggest it to my psychiatrist in a persuasive and appealing way so that they will allow me to do it.




  • I really make backups only a few times. I have the configuration files of my systems on my GitHub and Codeberg. The rest, I don’t need; the only things I keep are books and music that I download from the internet, which I have on a 1TB external hard drive.

    When I have made a backup for a specific reason, I have done it with rsync. It’s a tool that works quite well and is for the command line.







  • I have also been an anarchist for most of my life. But thinking it over, many of the anarchist ideas regarding class struggle and capitalist critique come from Marxism. Nevertheless, the desire for a revolution that brings about tangible change, or at least the beginning of significant social transformation, and the unwillingness to play into the hands of social democrats (reformists), leads me to adopt a perspective closer to Marxist-Leninism.

    I am still in formation, but that is the path I am currently taking. I have wondered if there is something like Bolshevik anarchism, but I found nothing. The closest I found was Mao-Spontex; the truth is that I find it interesting, but I don’t think it is a real movement beyond the meme.

    I believe that as the final phase of communism, anarchism is the ideal to be achieved; however, that state of affairs cannot be reached through anarchist tools. By this, I mean that in the process of making the revolution, a well-executed democratic centralism is more important than the rather “dispersed” decision-making, so to speak, of anarchists. Another point that comes to mind is that for anarchism to succeed, it would need a simultaneous world revolution, because otherwise, the external enemy could easily crush that society.

    In short… I am in a small “crisis” in my political thinking.
