The military coup in Sudan is, in part, a result of repressive global immigration policies—not to mention arms profiteering.

Resistance committees in Khartoum are the only obstacle to massacres and tyranny. Their struggle must be ours.

The networks Facebook offers aren’t new. What’s new is that they seem external to us. We’ve always had social networks, but no one could use them to sell advertisements—nor were they so easy to map.

The rebranding of Facebook as Meta as they seek to expand into the world of Virtual Reality is another step in this process of alienation—the colonization of our relationships and imaginations.

Nothing scares the daylights out of our rulers like the specter of anarchy—the abolition of all the means by which they hold power.

How (Not) to Abolish The Police—A Guide from Minneapolis

https://cwc.im/AbolishMPD

There has been lot of talk about police abolition over the past year and a half. But very different proposals coincide under this language. The coming years could see the phasing out of police departments—and in their place, an array of other agencies, activists, psychiatrists, and neighborhood watch organizations enforcing the same social order under a different name.

In reference to the elections of 2021 and the referendum in Minneapolis—

Reformism functions to replace the memory of what people achieved together with government policy initiatives that can only be implemented from above.

Let no one overwrite the grassroots victories of 2020 with the legislative failures of 2021. We remember.

We seek to carry out abolition from below, not to petition for solutions from above.

Happy birthday to Gaetano Bresci—who risked his life to rescue Errico Malatesta from an assassination attempt, then gave his life to inflict consequences on the king of Italy for ordering the slaughter of hundreds of workers.

Three years ago, the #GiletsJaunes protests erupted into the spotlight—a populist movement that initially offered fertile ground for the far right, though anti-fascists ultimately won the day. The questions it raised remain relevant in the Biden era.

By creating a false dichotomy between environmentalism and the needs of the poor, President Macron gave nationalists a narrative with which to capitalize on economic desperation. The initial #GiletsJaunes movement showed how centrist administrations can benefit the far right.

When centrists use their authority to stabilize capitalism at the expense of the poor, nationalists can present themselves as rebels who are trying to protect “ordinary people” from the oppressive machinations of the government.

Fortunately, anarchists hurried to contest nationalist participation in the #giletsjaunes. Every struggle is, in part, a struggle to shape the popular imagination regarding what kind of change we need.
