Was CrimethInc correct to expel traveler kids?
0
votes
So revisiting the CrimethInc decision to expel traveler kids. They seemed to had good reasons for doing so. However, another interpretation I'm working with is that itinerant ways of life offer something that might be more interesting had they attempted to connect it to the (pre-)historic movement of people away from sedentary ways of life.
Today, indigenous cultures that decided against sedentary ways of life attempt to keep their culture through living on the road. While not quite the same as being a gatherer-hunter, these ways of life have existed before history and have on occasion sprouted up through history. There are individual attempts at traveling as a way of life, but they don't hold the same emphasis as a cross generational attempt at living, which may be a desirable approach.
What these old cultures hold that individual traveling doesn't is ties to spirituality and finding ways to co-exist with dominant cultures. Other than foraging and pastoralism, nomads (as they have at times been called) have taken on skills and trades that could be done while on the road. Other traveler cultures, like carnys, exist because of a specific trade, the carnival/circus way of life.
What could be learned from these ways of life that might help create an anarchist traveler culture that is less of a youth phenomenon and/or individual expression and potentially become a cross generational resistance culture?
