Just read The Dialectic of Enlightenment instead
You don’t need to read Noam Chomsky but knowing the concept of manufacturing consent is still useful broadly even if Chomsky has been proven as a shithead

Writing is great. Join/start a collective
i know that this is an unpopular take, but everyone starting their own newsletter as a revenue stream is not a sustainable model for writing and reporting or for people who love and want to pay for media.
A lot of people cannot just start a paid newsletter or become freelancers to sustain their careers. The sports, metro, and international desks did work that requires *team* resources, like legal checks, documents, access to archives, and long-term beat experience.

This is historically and culturally ignorant. There are plenty of societies that lived very well in pretty non-hierarchical systems for hundreds if not thousands of years. Many longer and more successful than our current form of society
The difference between anarchism and liberalism on this front is that anarchism has never been successful at anything. Anarchists have barely mastered "running an off-putting bookstore"

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

Trump supporters are claiming that whistles should be “considered a violent weapon,” that their use constitutes “interference” with immigration enforcement operations or even “assault.”
In other words—the rapid response networks are working. The whistles are working.
Let no one tell you otherwise.

What is violence?
Is it tossing a tear gas canister back to the mercenaries who shot it at you?
Is it blowing a whistle at bounty hunters who are trying to abduct someone?
Perhaps, rather than asking whether an action is "violent," we should ask—
Does it perpetrate oppression? Or interrupt it?

The Illegitimacy of Violence, the Violence of Legitimacy
What is violence? Who gets to define it? Does it have a place in the pursuit of liberation? This discussion never takes place on a level playing field.

My current cozy little hobby is reading up on the Nuremberg trials.
One of the key things they did was use Nazi officials' braggadocious speeches as evidence.
Give a speech taking credit for annexing Austria? Ok, that'll be a conviction for annexing Austria.

We need to create a global ritual where, everyone that has attained a certain level of individual power & influence, is forcibly launch launched into the sun every New Years Day something
this stuff has really broken me. it's simply astounding that so many people who have been allowed to amass unimaginable wealth are so droolingly stupid, so unmoored from and in fact hostile to any sense of community or social responsibility, and oh by the way they love to constantly rape children

True libertarian leftism has never been tried!
i don't particularly disagree with a lot of the critiques of anarchist activism by liberals but I bristle when they act as if their best practices are any wiser. we're here because none of us figured out how to avoid being here.
everyone should have some goddamn humility.
