Manifesto 

This manifesto is part of an anti-capitalist, anti-liberal, anti-conservative and anti-fascist approach. It is on the left-wing, fundamentally anarchist, and promotes responsible freedom, and not absolute freedom disconnected from the multiple realities of individuals. This manifesto is an assumed revolutionary message.

We have lived for a very long time in a world of the standards. A world in which it is forbidden to be true to oneself, even when facing the others. Where it is not allowed to be different from everyone else. Especially if everyone is a white man, cisgender, heterosexual, athletic, wealthy, and praying the right god. In this world, some people can oppress others they consider deviant, as soon as the latter do not correspond to the norm. In this world, we make fine speeches about charity, but we even oppress our own children as soon as they do not suit the schemes of the powerful.

Sacrificed to fear and ignorance.

Numerous people dare to break the standards.

To criticize dogmas, shake up the gender, love who they like, share and give, or to take their time. Because yes, taking your time is also not allowed in the standards. Time is money. Time is life that can only belong to the powerful. These deviants who defy the standards, who do not fit into the theoretical frameworks predefined scientifically or religiously according to a single universal model that would be the white man, cisgender, heterosexual, athletic, rich and praying to the right god. These deviants have, therefore, braved the doxa and generated all kinds of achievements, and won victories which are still unfortunately too fragile for the moment.

The standard has set...

In what you should eat, depending on your gender most often, but also your financial means. Meat, fish, shellfish, because you have to be a real man. In your love or sexual life, when you must to have the woman... and therefore a nice car. In your body, when you are required to wax, to torturing yourself with clothes that cut off your breath or endanger your ankles. In the expression of your faith, or of your personal aesthetics, when you are prohibited from entering public service, or from going to school, because of the presence of a Hidjab on your head, or of his absence depending on where you were born. In your privacy, your life, your memory, when you become a mine of monetizable data for huge corporations.

...in your dignity.

The deviants tried to come up with something else. But, for each of these things, the powerful have found a way to extract wealth from them. Have emptied their substance. Have them dried up and replaced with the standard over and over again. Like vampires who suck up all life and leave only a world of the living dead. On the web, we saw in the 90s and 2000s, free expression, without graphic charter or imposed design. The artistic style could be of all eras, in black and white or multicolored. The text like the image, or the structure, depending only on the author of the site. There was no question of seeking anyone's approval, nor of competition. No frantic racing. We took the time to make our site, and we did it according to our own likes. It was a form of freedom.

And capitalism won.

The standard is everywhere.

And it is capitalist, reactionary and conservative. It is found in our relationships, making them toxic. In our view of the world through liberalism, to the point of making it difficult to think of it otherwise. Today, it tries to repress the excesses of a representation of freedom of expression that is nevertheless deeply conservative. It is still and always the white man, cisgender, heterosexual, sometimes athletic, rich or almost and no longer necessarily praying to the good god, but always faithful to his civilizational heritage, who casts doubt on the existence of people transgender, feels threatened by homosexuality, and invaded by black people. This man who denounces progressive good thinking and who expresses himself freely even on TV and radio sets. It is this conservative man who would be suppressed by the ... conservatives consortia.

Ridicule doesn't kill. The standard, yes, however.

So, what to do ? Despair and return to the standard. Open a Twitter or Facebook account, support liberals or fascists, go to confession, and eat lamb every Sunday ? Or be deviant, and continue to build the alternatives, again and again ?
I chose the second option. And I will summarize what I do to inspire you.

  • Refuse intoxicants: Cigarettes, recreational drugs, alcohol, all those things that exclusively serve the interests of the capitalists, and destroy both your health, the health of your loved ones, and the environment.
  • Going vegan: Because it is the only solution to spare non-human animals who should also not be oppressed, exploited or killed in the name of human pleasure, the market or a divinity.
  • Becoming Ignostic: Questioning religions and beliefs. Prioritize critical thinking, epistemology, and facts. No one has the right to prevent you from asking questions. But neither should anyone be oppressed or discriminated against because of their religion.
  • Be queer or ally: Fully embrace your gender, sexual, emotional identity, and thrive. Or allow the development of others by accompanying them in their steps, and by informing and relaying the word of the concerned.
  • Oppose racism and xenophobia: Because skin color, hair type or language are no more relevant criteria to discriminate against someone. Because there is no threat from those who come from outside, or who have a greater genetic variation than yours. No racialist theory has any reality in science.
  • Practicing responsible free speech: Words have an impact, and they can kill. People's experiences are not opinions that can be constantly debated. Mocking or questioning progressive struggles is neither funny nor innocent. This encourages harassment and violence, but also depression and suicides of those concerned. Respect for others must be the cornerstone of your freedom of expression.
  • Cultivate your independence: So that no one exploits your data, your private life, and above all cannot afford to prevent you from creating freely, favor decentralized solutions. Free yourself from graphic charters and other aesthetic standards. And whether it's your own body, your clothes, or your means of communication and presence on the Internet, defend your right to self-determination. Your life, your body, your personality, your identity belong only to you and no one else.

This manifesto was not only about the creation of its own website outside the centralized web. The revolution cannot come from just one aspect of our daily lives. It goes through self-respect and respect for what surrounds us emancipates us from domination, and makes us happier. It embraces all our life.

Freedom cannot exist without it.
