“You must not forget, we also know how to build. It is we the workers who built these palaces and cities, here in Spain and in America, and everywhere. We, the workers, can build others to take their place, and better ones! We are not in the least afraid of ruins. We are going to inherit the earth, there is not the slightest doubt about that. The bourgeoisie might blast and ruin its own world before it leaves the stage of history. We carry a new world, here, in our hearts. That world is growing this minute.“

- Buenaventura Durruti (CNT - F.A.I)

"The way man treats women is much worse than the way landlords treat servants and the high-caste treat the low-caste.

These treat them so demeaningly only in situations mutually affecting them; but men treat women cruelly and as slaves, from their birth till death.”

– Periyar EV Ramasamy

"How a woman can degrade herself by marrying a measly man who does not dare to join a union is beyond my comprehension."

"If we teach that there is nothing else below the bottom line, then ideas about sustainability, diversity, responsibility and so on become mere decoration.

The message that management research and teaching often provides is that capitalism is inevitable, and that the financial and legal techniques for running capitalism are a form of science.

This combination of ideology and technocracy is what has made the business school into such an effective, and dangerous, institution."

“Fuck cops, bosses, rapists, racists, Presidents, the money economy, Border Patrol, prisons, cat callers, haters. Go feminists, anarchists, indigenous communities, gift economies, queers bashing back, apolitical violent hoodlums, border crossers, friends, and totally making out for like hours.”

"We want to be rid of all roles and identities based on the phallus.

We want to be rid of sexual segregation.

We want to be rid of the categories of man and woman, gay and straight, possessor and possessed, greater and lesser, master and slave.

We want instead to be transsexual, autonomous, mobile, and multiple human beings with varying differences who can interchange desires, gratifications, ecstasies, and tender emotions without referring back to tables of surplus value or power structures that aren’t already in the rules of the game."

Guy Hocquenghem, To Destroy Sexuality

"Government itself is a class relation.

You can’t abolish class society without abolishing the asymmetry between ruler and ruled. Economics is only one of many spheres in which codified power differentials are imposed by means of social constructs; politics is another.

Private ownership of capital is to economics what state power is to politics."

'The very concept of a group of activists is an example of this trend of self-segregation. It is as if activism has morphed into a specific identity that centers on a hobby—like being a skier or a theater person—rather than a civic responsibility that necessarily traverses groups and interests.

In a way, the very label activist—its individualizing, identifying affects—excuses everyone else from civic responsibility. I may or may not have an opinion about a given issue, but I can’t be expected to do anything about it because, well, "I'm not an activist," or "I'm not political."'

"The BJP’s rhetoric has emboldened India’s myriad of powerful right-wing Hindu groups, like the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), which has around six million members. These groups are now increasingly leading violent mob attacks against Christians, their churches and pastors."

"Clock time is not what most people think it is. It is not a transparent reflection of some sort of true and absolute time that scientists are monitoring.

It was created, and it is frequently altered and adjusted to fit social and political purposes."

"At Cop27, held in Egypt last November, there were scores of oil and gas lobbyists from UAE, and Gulf states with strong oil and gas interests were thought to have been among the blockers preventing stronger language on phasing down fossil fuels."
