In 1930, the German state of Thuringia was the first in which the Nazi Party won the elections. This week, the fascist party Alternative für Deutschland won the highest number of votes in Thuringia. The resurgence of fascism in Germany is reflected in a wave of Nazi street violence around the country.

Around the world, neoliberal regimes have brutally repressed anti-capitalist movements, creating a situation in which fascists can pretend to represent the only alternative. Fascism will continue to gain momentum until we create grassroots movements that can crush it while addressing the problems capitalism creates.

In the words of Dmitry's father,

"Brothers and sisters! I am writing about my son. He is my flesh and blood. He is my best friend. And my main opponent. A gifted scholar. A talented author. A brave man. Willing to go all the way. For what he stands for and what he believes in. He’s my hero.

"When talking about him, my wife and I don’t use the past tense. Just the present. And the future. He is perhaps the only absolutely whole person I know. He always and in everything follows the dictates of his conscience and the ideas that unite us. At the same time, he is not only an ideological and straightforward person. He is not only a gifted scientist who studied the Russian North 'in the field' and Kurdistan in the desert. And not only the author and editor of many articles and several books.

"One should read his recent texts and see that he is a strategist of the movement that today opens new horizons... To discover new things. To be free to define yourself in a world that does everything it can to prevent it. To be able to make the right choices. To be clear about your values and act on them. To love those close to you. And love those far away. But also to pay attention."

The attacks of September 11, 2001 left everyone stunned. Yet politicians had prepared in advance for the opportunity to initiate a new round of colonial wars and domestic crackdowns.

More than a million people died as a consequence of the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq and the resulting turmoil. The rise of the Islamic State and—later—the disorganized US withdrawal from Afghanistan showed how little those operations achieved their supposed objectives. Yet by creating this disaster, George W. Bush rode the coattails of war to another term.

Since October 7, the Israeli government has pursued a similar course, seizing the opportunity to destroy Gaza and butcher tens of thousands of Palestinians. This will not make anyone safer in the region—neither Palestinians nor Israelis nor anyone else. It is calculated to create an ongoing crisis that will keep the most chauvinistic Israeli politicians in power at everyone else's expense.

Today as in 2001, our leaders will not protect us, but they can get us killed.
