“You are hierarchical. That's the older and more entrenched characteristic. We saw it in your closest animal relatives and in your most distant ones. It's a terrestrial characteristic. When human intelligence served it instead of guiding it, when human intelligence did not even acknowledge it as a problem, but took pride in it or did not notice it at all... That was like ignoring cancer.”
― Octavia E. Butler

We will never know--and that's a very good thing indeed.”
― Mark Bray, Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook
