"Between far-right street violence and a wave of new laws restricting education, self-expression, healthcare, and reproductive autonomy, bigots are attempting to take control of every aspect of our bodies and our sexuality. We can call this gender fascism.
"This is the local manifestation of a global surge of reactionary violence and state repression. Defending each other against this assault is not just marginal 'identity politics.' We are challenging some of the mechanisms that are central to the functioning of authoritarian power in the 21st century. From Mar-a-Lago to Moscow, despots and dictators tell us that normative gender roles are fundamental to the hierarchies they are trying to prop up. They’re probably right.
"If we want to win, though, we need a transformative framework to describe what we’re fighting for.
"Many advocates use language about preserving or extending rights when they explain why they oppose oppression.
"We propose a different framework: gender self-determination."

What we can expect from Donald Trump’s second term? How we can prepare to confront it?
“This is a pivotal moment, and everyone who isn’t cynically detached is sounding the alarm. Those of us who recognize the necessity of fighting had better find each other, identify the strengths and weaknesses of all the parties involved, recall the lessons of the past eight years, and strategize.”

If people thought about real issues and needs instead of manufactured desires, the economy would collapse and we'd have total anarchy.
That moment can't come soon enough.

"The lesson is clear. We will only get what we win by our own efforts. The Trump era was not a historical anomaly. It’s not behind us. We are still in it, and we can only get through it by fighting."

Strategizing to Stop Mass Deportations
We've prepared a freestanding zine version of the appendix to "The Case for Resistance," exploring what it would look like to mobilize against Trump's promise to carry out "the largest mass deportation in US history."
https://crimethinc.com/zines/strategizing-to-stop-mass-deportations
Mass deportations will require massive logistics and infrastructure, which offer a host of opportunities for intervention.
“In 2017, a single mass occupation at JFK Airport in New York sparked occupations involving tens of thousands of people around the country. Tactics spread rapidly when they are inspiring. What can you and your community do, right now, to prepare to inspire nationwide resistance to the deportation machine?” 🏴

Insurgent Survival: Reflections on the Fight Against Sweeps Targeting the Homeless in Austin, Texas
https://crimethinc.com/StoptheSweeps
In 2019, militants in Austin, Texas started an organization with the aim of defending homeless camps against sweeps—forced removals disguised as “cleanups” carried out by police and work crews. We explore the history of Stop the Sweeps and the strategic thinking behind it, seeking to distill lessons about autonomous organization that can aid revolutionaries in future struggles.
"The camp is an image of the future—a future in which increased economic precarity, climate crises, wars, and state repression produce new waves of displacement and migration, and new forms of repression and managerial governance arise in response."

On November 27, 1884—in defiance of that day's Thanksgiving festivities—anarchists in the United States marched with the black flag for the first time, in a demonstration protesting poverty and explicitly calling for the forcible abolition of property and wage labor. This was documented in the anarchist paper The Alarm. 🏴
