A year ago, following the fall of Assad, as Russian occupying forces withdrew from their positions in Syria, they passed a Russian anarchist who gazed into their eyes. The anarchist's side in the conflict had outlasted them.
May the same thing happen in Russia one day.

In order to keep Donald Trump’s voter base entertained with spectacles of predatory violence, recruiters are offering bribes of up to $50,000 to seduce gullible individuals into hiring themselves out to United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). While Trump’s henchmen falsely claim that ICE is targeting “criminals,” the real wrongdoers are those who are prepared to do harm to their neighbors in return for a bribe.
In cooperation with subMedia and the Coordinadora Anarquista Tejiendo Libertad, we have prepared a video and poster campaign to counter ICE recruitment. Please help us circulate these everywhere that people are at risk.

When autocracy takes hold in a country, everything goes on as before—police go on policing, landlords go on collecting rent, people go on showing up to work. The transition takes place so smoothly because all the elements necessary to fascism were present under democracy.
https://crimethinc.com/democracy
People imagine fascism as the opposite of democratic governance. In fact, it employs the same police, courts, property rights, patriotic mythology, and habits of obedience as state democracy. Wherever there is a powerful state with a monopoly on violence, fascism is only an election away.
This is why resistance to authoritarianism must take place at all times, not simply when an army is invading under swastika flags. We must never conflate the smooth functioning of the state with freedom itself. Assuming that the "rule of law" is identical with self-determination gives aspiring despots a free hand.

At the Turning of the Tide: How to Fight Our Way out of the Trump Era
https://crimethinc.com/TurningTide
A year into the second Trump era, authoritarians are in control of the federal government, but they have yet to gain control of society at large. They have done tremendous harm, but their assault has hit a plateau, if not yet an impasse. They have to project strength at all times precisely because they are not invincible. It is finally possible to imagine how we might not only defeat them but take advantage of the situation to make more profound changes than were thinkable before.
In this analysis, we revisit the structural forces behind Trump’s return to power, review the events of 2025, and propose a strategy for how to fight our way out of the Trump era together.

что такое культура безопасности
Этот зин вы можете напечатать и собрать самостоятельно, скачав с сайта дистро:
https://crimethinc.com/zines/chto-takoie-kultura-biezopasnosti
Культурой безопасности называют совокупность привычек, заведённых в сообществе с целью снизить риски для его участников и участниц, которым грозит внимание государства. C опорой на культуру безопасности нет необходимости под каждый новый повод заново вырабатывать меры предосторожности, в напряжённой обстановке она поможет заглушить паранойю или панику и, может статься, даже убережёт тебя от тюрьмы.

Say it loud, say it over and over:
The violence that the Trump administration is perpetrating is not the consequence of the resistance that people are engaging in. It is the consequence of the fact that not enough people are engaging in open resistance yet.

The Trump administration's efforts to criminalize opposition to fascism are taking effect overseas. Two banks are shutting down the accounts belonging to Rote Hilfe—a German legal aid organization over a century old—because of Trump designating so-called "Antifa Ost" as a "foreign terrorist organization."
The designation has no equivalent in German law. It's based on a single case with extremely questionable evidence. The German government has not adopted the designation, repeatedly emphasizing that the purely legal construct "Antifa East" poses no significant threat.
Nonetheless, these cowardly German banks are permitting Donald Trump to determine who they work with—despite the fact that the Trump administration has made it clear that not only do they oppose anti-fascism in general, they explicitly consider those who resisted the rise of Hitler to be "terrorists."
