Climate Stalin, I think, begins from a messianic belief that a messiah could wield incredible “righteous” violence against those who destroy the world. Whither class and climate struggle when one can hope for the rise of Climate Stalin?

A new zine has been added to the website!

Don’t Just Do Nothing to Counter Fascism

Big thank you to @cbmilstein for sending this to us!

This zine is a communal effort, with advice gleaned from the following Jewish anarchists: alice, asher, cat, chanaleh, cindy, cindy barukh, hannah, jhaavo, lilli, mazel, scarab, simcha, and vicky.

“Don’t Just Do Nothing: 20 Things You Can Do to Counter Fascism — Yes, You! Yes, Now” is intended as inspiration for everyone who is striving toward a world without fascism — whether or not they’re Jewish or an anarchist. Please share this zine freely and widely.

I'm concerned about this meme about climate Stalin, a hypothetical strongman who can leverage carceral power against those who are destroying the world. What benefit does this carceral ecology bring us? Abolitionists must increasingly forward abolition ecology, but the contours of what that could mean have yet to be mapped.

I keep getting ads for professional signature commissions. Imagine that, commissioning someone to make your signature, which is supposed to be unique, something intensely personal to you. What the heck. What stage of capitalism/Spectacle is this?

Tradcaths: Paganism now recognized by the Church. But what about the Latin mass? 🥺🥺🥺

Cope and seeth snowflakes. 🤣😂🤣🤣

Vatican just approved an indigenous form of liturgical mass called the Mayan rite of mass. Tradcaths are coping and seething. 🥰

I'm late to the party but why are liberals mad at the Haka at the Kiwi parliament? I didn't see anything weird by it, just an extra-parliamentary protest action at parliament.

Remembering my college years and even my youth with people (including myself) conceptualizing three worlds theory in teleological terms, vis. The Philippines is a third world country but through development it can become a first world country. Even a presidential candidate (Mar Roxas) framed three worlds theory in these terms, as if being first world was something to aspire too. But three worlds theory isn't a theory of modernization, but of international power blocs. Fun fact, the Philippines was once considered a first world country due to its extremely close (vassalage) association to the United States. I wonder how Filipinos would react to that.

“If one thing is certain, it’s that we don’t need any Bonannoists, but rather anarchists who can think for themselves, take what’s useful and adapt it to their own contexts, not simply copy-and-paste.”

@HeavenlyPossum so true. Just telling the libs about Gaza puts them on the defensive about voting. What I don't get is that they don't need to provide ideological cover for genocide. They could just shut up and vote. No one would know since the ballot was secret. But noooooooo. They HAVE to defend genocidal policies. I don't get it.

I need to get this comprehensive exam over with so I can write my thesis, which I'm already convinced is gonna be a certified banger on the Philippines left, and then work towards a PhD.

Now that MEGALOPOLIS is on streaming, sharing again my review of the movie, which seems to be one of the few reviews that takes the movie's politics to task that isn't a Twitter thread, especially in determining the extent of David Graeber's influence on the movie, since the director-producer Francis Ford Coppola readily cites Graeber as an inspiration for the film.

Is the whole series gonna be this? 😭

Watching Derry Girls for the first time and it's only episode 2 and it seems like the show is spurned forward by Michelle doing something and everyone having to deal with the consequences.

Something I'm working on for the Marxists Internet Archive.

@KekunPlazas do you mean Haitian revolution

The first working class revolution was not the Paris Commune, but Haiti, and the class conditions of the very first working class revolution was not proletarianization, but enslavedment.

Californians voted to keep slavery legal for people convicted of a crime. There were no arguments for keeping slavery legal, nor an organized opposition to keep slavery legal.

Millions of people just collectively decided to keep slavery legal.

What kind of country is that?
