Trumps round-table described the movement to Stop Cop City as a domestic terrorist organization. We heard this before, from local Democrats. Today, we echo calls to unite against autocracy. Wherever 5 or 10 ppl come together, let fear subside and tactics begin. crimethinc.com/2025/10/09/n...

University of Michigan regent has house vandalized for the third time, due to the institutional support for Israeli genocide in Palestine, as well as wars of aggression in Lebanon and Syria. All of these military adventures are organized and sponsored by the USA.

revolutionary movements do themselves a disservice when they form alliances of convenience with established powers, since the global confrontation of those powers in finance, real estate, energy, and ultimately war, tends to destabilize larger and larger swaths of the planet.

While we're celebrating and cheering for the suspects safety, it is important to restate a basic fact: heroic deeds, inspiring acts, courageous interventions are not adequate for the task we face. We need a veritable revolution to break the back of the state, and to build popular power in its wake.

Force, when used by the people, is called "violence" and "terror." When used by the powerful, it is called "law enforcement" and "policy."

Israel is creating the “buffer zone" in occupied Golan Heights, Syria

They already call their occupation of the Heights a "buffer zone." Their real intention is to expand their territorial control deeper into Syria, as Turkey does the same from the north.

It is understandable why Syrians would be celebrating the overthrow of the dynasty that has governed their country for so long. Still, it is likely that the US-Israel-Turkish alliance benefits more than anyone else. Erdogan can get his gas pipeline to Qatar now.

VCU Richmond VA at the Gaza Solidarity Encampment. This picture shows frontliners repelling police, moments after a small group pushed from the flank into officers and others used projectiles to stop their forward movement. Look close to see "House of Mirth" in the face of a cop.

What we are seeing is not born of secretive plotting + paid professional agitation. Its open-source resistance. This is how all contemporary movements work: participants share reflections, guides, + infographics online and in person to learn quickly without central planning.

Those on the frontlines of demonstrations may be assaulted with blunt weapons, fists, or other means of causing physical harm. Several options exist for protecting at-risk individuals from these threats.

Earlier today, Atlanta protesters used umbrellas and hard banners to defend themselves from police attacks, as protesters called an end to Georgia State contracts with Israel and Cop City.

A "negotiation team" has coordinated a sham process with UC Riverside, for which they are offering to surrender the Gaza Solidarity encampment. A "task force that...explores the removal" of Israeli contracts is not adequate. The people of Gaza need real, material, action now.

don't lose faith now. we are all learning. we are all experimenting. we have no choice, and we know that. millions of people are wondering how to respond to the police brutality while continuing to pressure decision-makers.
