FASCISM.

This is so naive it actually blows my mind.

Let this radicalize you:
Nothing makes me more pessimistic about a possible electoral solution to fascism than Senator Sanders saying
“If you don’t have any borders, you don’t have a nation.”

to keep functioning a society must discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

i’m down with art burglary as as art, but these people stole freaking jewelry

i taught film for 35 years and the video store wasn’t bad in either its VHS or DVD era, but I liked the era before that when a few cities had multiple repertory cinemas, art / import cinemas, and hella first run houses. To me the political potential of movies isn’t allegory it’s seeing them together

Imagine that

It’s also important to note that Fascists seem poised to win elections there because the left coalition who stopped them last time has been unable to wrest power from the hard core capitalist ‘center.’

People need to look more closely at at popular risings in France. This century most of them have been against police violence and emerged from suburban ghettos where North and Subsaharan African people live. There’s other stuff too but it’s hard to seriously analyze on a micro blog.

I don't think it's going to work out in the way they think because what they are doing is to actually promote the protest and the date in a way that the organizers can't on their own. So lots of people will now be searching: October 18 protest who would have had no clue before.

Between the Devil and the Green New Deal | Commune We cannot legislate and spend our way out of catastrophic global warming.

The climate justice folks seem to have been silenced of late, which is a bad sign i think, as is the suppression of serious historical materialist voices such as this one (though they were always barred from mainstream debate, they are I’m afraid, correct) communemag.com/between-the-...

It’s not enough to critique Machado. One must support the councils of Los Altos and the Bolivian revolution they made.

the "doing politics the right way" continues

It's not enough to reject the Nobel Prize, you have to not deserve it in the first place.

There has been a lot of ICE activity in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago today. There has also been a lot of ICE watch and rapid response activity. We love our community, and we are showing up for each other.

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

I'm furious on behalf of everyone who was brutalized by ICE today in Chicago. My GOD, this is completely horrible.

I've been in meetings most of today and I just checked messages and see that comrades & friends were part of the people they brutalized today.

My husband was detained by ICE today

Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

as a a former film prof, that guys affect is truly cinematic.

Reading Marx, Debord, Brenner, Wood, Comninel, Mooers, and Clover makes it clear that revolutionary hope takes the form of critique, and the most loving thing the dispossessed can do is to rid one other of magical thinking.

TPUSA doesn’t have a right to exist. Prove me wrong.

Beautiful to see more support infrastructure joining the flotilla - much of which exists because they are responses to border violence.

Life Support medical vessel now joining has been doing missions in Central Med - world's deadliest border, and has done over 3000 rescues.

"Why do you talk about genocide at parties"

"Why do you talk about genocide with kids around"

"Why do you talk about genocide during work calls"

"Why do you talk about genocide with people who have their own shit going on"

Why do you talk about genocide when...

BECAUSE there is a GENOCIDE.

Oh no someone rolled an ankle

when i used to be a fairly serious distance runner and lived in Iowa, I’d combine running on the road with treadmill and elliptical at the gym when it was awful out. I’d let my winter miles go down a little so that 8 miles was the weekly peak. I was in my 20s and 30s so easy to increase in spring
