Repression breeds resistance. A statement that carries with it a thousand caveats. I say this not in the framework of liberal cowardice of do nothing rather a pleading of strategic realignment based off historical repression. While we can look to Gaza and Palestine as examples of this, the Palestinian resistance exists in a fundamentally different… Continue reading No Guarantees

In The Ashes of Antifascism
Anti-fascism is intellectually and strategically bankrupt as an ideology, incapable of actually fighting fascism. I illustrate this through breaking down a trifecta of authors known for their work on fascism and antifascism, Robert Paxton, Mark Bray, and Alexander Reid Ross. I feel a little bad for Mark Bray, as Paxton and Ross are both zionists… Continue reading In The Ashes of Antifascism
Anarchist (and other) Counterinsurgents
Moving from simply shitting on legalitarians, so-called anarchists, antifascists, and militants are again indistinguishable from liberals on the topics of such things as.. assassinations. Rest in Piss, Charlie Kirk, it should’ve happened sooner, but let me make my point. These “radicals” cannot fathom that when politics or values finally click for some random adult about… Continue reading Anarchist (and other) Counterinsurgents
Preemptive Mourning
We had a gathering recently of all kinds. Long time radicals, newer folks struggle to reconcile with the status quo, but largely all under the typical formulations of a non-profit movement space. My interest was not so much the event itself, but capturing the would-be disenfranchised who will realize how far this space does not… Continue reading Preemptive Mourning
A Small Word on Blood Money
Online discourse once again shows its ass, but this time it takes form in folks misunderstanding what it means to be a settler and complicit. For all the hollow conversation about privilege, they did not take the logic present and take it to its furthest conclusion. I’ll present the argument being made then I will… Continue reading A Small Word on Blood Money
Guiding Lights for this Rupture
Finally, we’re seeing some semblance of the George Floyd Uprising now and the militants in action. The west coast has been particularly example setting, but we also must commend those incarcerated uprising in Delaney Hall, a detention facility in New Jersey, along with the militants who’ve arrived to support the unrest. Solidarity to those not… Continue reading Guiding Lights for this Rupture
Bombing Social Relations
In 1978-1979, the Libertarian Socialist Organisation in Australia published a complete liberal, counter-insurgent drivel that the state couldn’t have written better titled “You can’t blow up a social relation”. Thank god that not only do I not have any expectations of Australian anarchists similarly to UK anarchists, but I expect them also to be anti-militant… Continue reading Bombing Social Relations
Coping Mechanisms as Symptoms of Failure
The deaths of Margaret Thatcher and Henry Kissinger are reoccurring celebrations for left social media among many other of the capitalist elite. The jokes about public toilets, the celebration of their dying, I’d partaken it in it myself once. You’d almost forget they lived full lives with zero consequences and died in a way most… Continue reading Coping Mechanisms as Symptoms of Failure
Leftwing Conspiracy Theorists are Counter-Insurgents
I was a teenage conspiracy theorists. I’m a few decades from that point and I find myself with nothing, but contempt for the full-grown adults that engage in infowars level of conspiracies. The George Floyd Rebellion resoundingly showed that conspiracy theorists, especially those identified as leftist, were among the front line of counterinsurgency and the… Continue reading Leftwing Conspiracy Theorists are Counter-Insurgents
You Ask Bad Questions About Anarchy
Maybe there’s just increasingly less good places on the internet to discuss anarchy or I continue the grave mistake to pop into anarchist subreddits. Why? I don’t know. If it isn’t apparent by how I write my other pieces, my audience is often a mix of me trying to get my thoughts out to anarchists,… Continue reading You Ask Bad Questions About Anarchy
