This is true, and this is false - source: me?”
No, I don’t have the expertise in indigenous metaphysics to write that dialogue. It was written by James Cross after many long conversations we had about soulism and Tiwi beliefs.
Soulism, put simply, is the theory that hierarchy is bad, and reality is a hierarchy we have the ability to abolish. You can read My manifesto on soulism at http://soulism.net/
As to why I made this comic? If you go to the polcompball wiki page on soulism, you’ll see a disclaimer stating that soulism is fictional. The soulist community has had many arguments with the wiki’s admin team about this label. Today, this comic suddenly came to Me, and I just had to draw it. I thought I might post it somewhere on Lemmy. Blahaj’s soulism community was deleted by the admins, and this was the next best place. I do wish I’d been able to post it to a Lemmy community where the background required to fully appreciate the meme was more normalised, but such communities seem not to last very long. Last year I attempted to create lemmy.soulism.net, but I ran into problems with the cost of VPSes.
Yes, much in the same way that syndicalism or mutualism are anarchism with extra steps. Soulists are anarchists who are a little more open minded, and willing to challenge a couple more hierarchies. Realism, the belief in an objective universe, is the root of all conservativism, and must be destroyed in order to reach liberation.
