Critical Brisk Stroll is a new international movement with an as-of-yet-unscheduled first event to be held in Rochester. The aim of this movement is to assert the rights of pedestrians everywhere to sidewalks and crosswalks. Plans are being formed for an inaugural walk to take place within the next month, beginning at the Village Gate and ending at an as-of-yet-to-be-determined bar in the South Wedge.
You are encouraged to join the mailing list here to involve yourself in the community, aid in planning, or to keep tabs on this grassroots movement for law enforcement purposes. Synopsis (draft): While the Critical Brisk Stroll movement eschews all labels, it is closest in its ideological bent to the Contemporary-Neo-Randian-Post-Malthusian-Conservative-Anarcho-Capitalistic-Classical-Socialist-Tibetan-Green movement, predicated upon the assumption of validity in the philosophies espoused by Adorno in his seminal work: Negative Dialectics.
Self declared members of the movement, in a strictly binary deconstructive sense, could perhaps all be accurately described as conscientiously striving to reflect the universal class struggle as illustrated by the evolution of the C++ programming language. Borges, Akirakawa and Gins, Hitler, Alizee, Noam Chomsky, Malaysia1, and Adolf Wolfli are our mortal enemies.
We, as a decentralized movement, agree that Genocide is morally abhorrent, strive for the eradication of all prime numbers, and actively fellate the patriarchy—yet, while still remaining consistent with the underlying thrust of 5th wave feminism—and in turn necessessarily loathe even so much as a mention of evenly numbered denominations of currency. Critical Brisk Stroll is both the ineffable and Critical Brisk Stroll. We are as strictly regimented as an MLA formatted document and as flexible as the truth.
We are the voice of reason—with footnotes. We are the innocent, blind, oppressed, and pure. We are the voice of the working class. We are pedestrians.
It was independently conceived, having nothing to do with Critical Mass, despite any similarities in concept or name or reality.
