Present Time No. 191
(Vol. 50, No. 2) April 2018
One of the most revolutionary things we have to offer is discharge. No oppressive society can survive if discharge is allowed, and no revolutionary change is going to be more than temporarily successful unless people can discharge. Long-term there is no other choice but to change both society and people’s access to discharge.
