a counsel of despair

"You will argue that this is a counsel of despair. What of the anarchist dream, the Stateless state, the Commune, the autonomous zone with duration, a free society, a free culture? Are we to abandon that hope in return for some existentialist acte gratuit? The point is not to change consciousness but to change the world." (The Temporary Autonomous Zone, Ontological Anarchy, Poetic Terrorism, by Hakim Bey)
