really hardcore activist groups these days tend to be full-lifestyle cliques. you can't fake hormones or diy face tats, and it's hard to maintain any charade three tabs deep.

this has the benefit of isolating these groups, but it also has the detriment of isolating these groups. you can do almost anything when you know wider society has no place for you, but you have a chosen family with a shared purpose and intention.

This entire post applies to the police as a group.

"The revolutionary is a lost man; he has no interests of his own, no cause of his own, no feelings, no habits, no belongings; he does not even have a name. Everything in him is absorbed by a single, exclusive interest, a single passion--the revolution." --Mikhail Bakunin
