not sure, but maybe the discussion/narration would be easier to listen to if the host weren't busy getting shitfaced and stoned

looked around a bit and couldnt find an answer, is there anywhere i can just download the podcast? everything i can find wants me to have an app i listen to it in. i just want an mp3 so i can listen to this while not having wifi.

Yet more Facebook morons and/or cops who thought it was a good idea to go solely through Spotify (arguably the worst audio-focused platform out there) because usual "convenience" argument or maybe even "reaching to the masses"...

You can't download something, like Dark Green Ad-archy podcast, off spotify unless you use the spotify app or a program that has access to spotify's connect api. Even then, you can't download this to your computer and listen to it on another music player program.

I'd recommend not bothering with Dark Green Anarchy since they 1) only put their podcasts on these shitty streaming services like Apple or spotify, and 2) they DMCA people that have bothered to record their podcast and uploaded it elsewhere. Dark Green Anarchy doesn't wanna miss out on any of that sweet spotify or apple ad-bucks. Yum yum. It's a win win, apple/spotify gets your data which = $$$ and Dark Green Adarchy gets ad revenue.

The production is terrible and both dudes sound like dumbasses. Why are they talking about leftcoms and Kevin Keating?

Because leftcom and Keating are on a popular cusp at the moment, a type of merging of an increasing left leaning neoliberal/socialist demographic with the softening more libertarian marxist communists. They are playing their cards now during this weak moment in U.S political arena with sleepy Joe at the helm of an office that faces an increasingly hostile right wing Post-Trump demographic.

Typo: “dank” green anarchy. Not “dark” green anarchy.

But tbh, on a somewhat tangential note: anarchys relationship with drugs, alcohol and hedonism in general is a problem. It’s part of the reason why anarchists are so chronically disorganized and lacking credibility. Too many weak-willed junkies on our side.

Or to put it in different terms:

Today, a fascist ate healthy and exercised.

...and did you? Probably not.

I’m straight edge and your comment has me yawning. Who cares? Do you know how many fash piss boys are out there cultivating their beer gut for the next gravy seals convention. Let anarchists have fun.

The greatest ideas cometh not from the muscled gym junkies, but from those who exercise climbing the mountains of their minds with elixirs and weavers of the imagination.

Yeaaa, except the latter don't do shit except to just keep musing in circle jerks in a corner... Yawn.

Most successful people's revolutions of the last century have been fought on meth or cocaine hombré.

Caught pants down depicting Nazis on meth or CIA coke gangs as "revolutionaries"...

Ooookay, idiot.

You wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for the 60's hippie revolution! Your granma and granpa wouldn't have met if they hadn't shared that joint on that balmy summer night in Berkeley or whereever!!

Haha, nope.

Oh! Well maybe your granpa came over from Cuba in the early 80s when Castro released all the petty cocaine dealers and thieving junkies from the prisons and sent them over to Miama and he met your granma on the boat?

I know this site is open to theoretically everyone regardless the age, but like, what around doing on a rather mature site that publishes mostly analysis and report-backs from anarchyland?

There's people here whose parents weren't boomers, you dolt. Like it's a vastly increasing trend especially since the zoomers who're born from either Millenials or Gen-X.

I saw on TV Pablo Escobar almost overthrew the corrupt capitalist Columbian Goverment using cocaine money and he had devoted army of farmer peasants with machine guns and ruled OK!

plenty of fash are out of shape slugs, just as there are plenty of anarchists who are as well. the healthy/unhealthy distribution among fash and anarchists is probably about the same as the general population (a bell curve with 10% super healthy and 10% super sluggy with 80% who might be able to do 25 pushups right now but who can't run a 9-minute mile). the main difference is that straight edge anarchists are so fucking whiny about other people using substances. the fash, if/when they get the chance to implement some kind of health policy, will happily execute the chronically sluggish. don't get me wrong -- i hate meat and drugs and alcohol and tobacco, but i'm not a fucking mormon when it comes to other people's shitty habits. i just avoid junkies and the self-indulgent, mostly because they're a security risk.

"Too many weak-willed junkies on our side."

True... and get ready to be treated like some bully or weirdo the moment you show some will power as well as consistency with your ideas.

nothing worse under the sun than an anarchist who's only anarchist so that they're not a fascist, and who only does something because a fascist didn't do it.

Welp no wonder anarchists like, 'anon 12/27/2020 - 13:17', come across as really lame and one dimensional to me. They think hedonism is bad and sinful that it's holding them back lol.

hedonism is so... hedonistic. the hedonosity is only lacking in hedonary hedonisticism.

RAAN Fraction? Surely that's not referring to the Red & Anarchist Action Network, the ones who cheered for the "dictatorship over the proletariat" and used a hammer-and-sickle as their official emblem? Please tell me those clowns aren't still around!

Oh hey, it's fake Makhno. If you weren't commenting on the 3rd largest anarchist news site, I'd say "kiss my ass", but because you are commenting on the 3rd largest anarchist news site, slurp my butt.

If you listened to the show, you'd know what the fuck is going on.

For everyone and the record, I didn't post this here, though I dont mind that it was. Comments on Spotify: Not our only platform and we publish through the Anchor App and Spotify is my target service because it is the one I regularly use. So I publish only the Spotify links.

Those crying over having to use wifi, boo fucking hoo. I got an Android phone like any other piece of white trash and I live in the hills with my fellow billies with shit internet connection, so deal with it or don't listen, like you would anyway.

Spotify is the future, dead sites with no social media presence can dance their happy asses back to the 90s. I'd publish on archive.org like my previous show "Dorks of Destruction", but for those listening, my schtick is low effort fun.

I got an average of 30 regular listeners and that is plenty enough for me. If you like the show, hit me up @hpwombat on Twitter, or hit up the site on Facebook at the Society Dispatch, home of Anglophone eco-extremism.

I remember you and Lord Rambler often on @news in the 2008 -2010 epoch, used to get into interesting comment threads with Rambler, sometimes you, you once said my mom had hemorrhoids lol, nice. My pre-Stirner days when I was finding out about anarchists like Bob Black and stuff.
It seems you took my advice and headed for the boon-docks.

is anews really the 3rd largest anarchist news site (in english)? what's first and second?

There are genuine reasons to not want to use Spotify. It doesn't work with Tor or a VPN so I can't use it on my desktop or phone.

That said, I have your podcast up and running just fine as a podcast via Antennapod, and iirc it's on YouTube too, so idk what the above commenters are talking about.

There's a proxy setting area in the advanced settings and you can definitely run it through Tor, n00b!

Spotify's account registration uses the same VPN/Tor blacklist as Netflix etc. You can't register without giving them your IP. Yes you could use the proxy setting to bounce via an unblocked IP somewhere, but that's beside the point. The point is Spotify is much harder to use anonymously than any other audio platform. I don't know why people are pretending it isn't.

Meh. Not impressed. Why should I care about TOR listeners? I don't care about Amish listeners or hardcore anti-tech consumers, when both would be a decent audience, should I pull the reins in and perform in front of a live audience. Maybe 1 or 2 would trickle in and love the show. But alas, the world continues to move forward, the death march of technology will not halt for the privacy concerns of uber hackers that haven't adapted to smartphones. If your security is that important to you, my show will probably not matter. I do respect the ancient web 1.0 dweebs as I do other esoteric things, like theistic Satanists and Christian anarcho-primitivists, but I just am not going to gear my approach to your little world. If you can find a way to listen, goodie, I appreciate the audience. If not, my own fault for designing my show around a public media audience. Thank you for your interest.
