some hearts are true

Feeling positive and seeing opportunities in people who often carry reactionary impulses or ideas excited about an action is not the same as advocating red-brown alliances. The fact that many anarchists and communists conflate the two is a sign of severely undeveloped ideas.

If people’s takes on twitter directly corresponded to their activity in times of social rupture a lot more shit would have burned in 2020


Hand wringing about the CEO guy getting merced is wrong but let’s not go so far as to tie a persons wrong take on fucking twitter with whether or not they’ll be on the right side of the revolution c’mon


One of the worst in vogue ideas amongst radicals is that for us to change the world we have to first solve our internal problems


Anarchists so attached to formulaic rhetoric that you can’t see when positions that had been marginal 10 years ago are now far more popular and acceptable. Sometimes this means they’re watered down, but the answer to that isn’t retreat & resentment but deepening and leveling up

Police kill every single day. There comes a time in your life when you have to say "no more." For us, that time has come. We will not continue to shrug off responsibility for our future. Cop City will never be built.


It seems particularly American to demand every piece of creative expression be immediately comprehensible to you or it’s useless and pretentious.

The 6 jailed protesters are having their new bail hearing currently. We hope the judge will recognize the absurdity of the charges against them and grant them signature bonds.

Myself and basically every other YPG veteran just learned yesterday that we lost another one of ours over a year ago. He had served four years in the SDF but passed away about a month after coming home. Rest easy Reşid 💔

Action does not solely emanate from rational thought. This assumption grounds so much of our thoughts and it’s a lie


The way people on the Left talk about covid safety as some sort of stable list of dos and don’ts mirrors the irrationality of the covid denialism of the Right except that it encourages people not to act, to restrain themselves from social life.

Yesterday, Ryan Millsap of Blackhall Studios had contractors tear up the trailhead and bike path of Weelaunee People's Park. Despite this, nearly 75 people gathered last night to celebrate the changing season. Read the report-back from the Solstice Party: atlantapresscollective.com/2022/12/22/und…

RIGHT NOW: Atlanta Police are shooting pepper balls and tear gas at environmental protestors who are occupying trees to block construction at the proposed site for #CopCity


Also, some of the people who were “right about Ukraine all along” got behind a piece that argued that a Russian win in the war had anti-fascist value. Just sayin, no one’s hands are clean here despite your best efforts


Maybe the problem with radicals today is they feel some drive to have a “position” on everything. Positions are only useful when they are grounds from which to fight. Otherwise they’re just opinions on twitter, adding to the data stream.

Perceiving a world peopled not with things but with forces, not with subjects but with powers, not with bodies but with bonds.


You lost the plot when you thought just your opinion about something mattered
