Fascism isn’t just when the vibes are bad. It’s a specific arrangement of capitalism that cannot be beaten without overthrowing the capitalist mode of production that feeds it.

Took many months of collaborative effort, but after a public lecture last May, and several other consultations with other groups on the topic, @arc-org.bsky.social has released its full analysis of Fascism.

Countering Fascists in a park is not the same as organizing against Fascism.

Counter-demos are inherently reactive.

Antifascists can no longer afford to base their actions upon whatever their local Fascists are doing.

We need to organize beyond them and act on our own terms.

😃everything is great!😃

Everyone over 30 wears a mouth guard at night to save their teeth.

😶

I used to be a dipper, they don't even need to ask the question to adopt this, trust me. 😄

This event is not even remotely as based as the name suggests.

People kicking the tires, considering being more serious:

"Maybe we shouldn't be basing membership soley upon whether or not someone has a credit card. Maybe we should set very some basic ideological standards."

NDP Social Democrats:

"NO PURITY TESTS!

thank you for making sure everyone knows how bad you think communism is, as nazis take over the world. that's very brave of you.

I absolutely do not want to hear about your outrage in regard to the floatilla, if you've never once recognized the steadfast and objectively righteous heroism of the armed Palestinian resistance coalition, Yemenis, and Hezbollah.

Someone I've worked with occasionally for nearly 10 yrs, and I've got along with very well told me today that they're "strongly considering" a career change to pursue their "passion".

"Oh, good for you. What's that?"
"Policing"

😶

F*ck

All the Charlie Kirk defenders like:

As scientific socialists, ARC understands economic relations develop and influence the social and political structures, behaviours, and relations of a given society; however humanity has agency to change. Structures, behaviours, and relations within a society affect one another and also shape and condition economic relations. Through investigation and practice, humanity can turn from the present colonial and capitalist reality and move toward a future free of these old relations of domination.

Fascism is already here.

It is already tentrenched.

What you're witnessing today is their reassertion.

Organize like you've got an entrenched Fascist system to overthrow, because that is the reality.

We love chasing away Facists. It's a lot of fun, but countering means THEY are actually in the driver's seat.

The common narrative in support of playing Fascist in a park whack-a-mole is to prevent them from gaining a foothold.

Well, they actually gained theirs near 100 yrs ago.

Countering Fascists in a park is not the same as organizing against Fascism.

Counter-demos are inherently reactive.

Statement on the Davis Cup showing the relationship between this event, Canada, and Israel. Collaboratively written with Clean House For Palestine.

This event is not even remotely as based as the name suggests.

Criminally under rated book.

Also the response of too many:

"Well have you considered that both are bad? I rest my case", as they proceed to wash their hands in blood.

This is a common move toward innocence. These people will support and do anything that allows them to keep their moral compass stain-free.

* 🇺🇸/🇮🇱 attack Iran*

Ttoo many western leftists:

"What is really needed is regime change in Iran!"

Petition to deny their exit. 📝

Liberals are more concerned about the idea that the military parade may have been to stroke Trump's ego, than they are about the American military actually represents.

The military industrial complex must account for like 90% of the ad revenue of the Ottawa Airport.
