Hi Bluesky people, I’m Roger, founder of Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil.

I’m in prison for 5 years for resisting the carbon regimes.

I worked as an organic farmer in Wales for 30 years before unprecedented rains destroyed £100,000 worth of my crops 🧵

What matters is building the conditions for something better — not just resisting collapse, but remaking the world as the old order breaks down. “People power” is simply the name for what happens when ordinary people organise into a force that can reshape reality.

Happy to see both the work of Ernest Becker (The Denial of Death) and Greenberg, Solomon, and Tom Pyszczynski's terror management theory mentioned here. Both were such paradigm shifting schemas for my understanding of the polycrisis.

Liberal culture cannot say the word “death,” even as billions face it.

Euphemism has become a form of violence — and the first step to resisting collapse is naming reality without flinching.

If you keep hacking away at your legs, it's just a matter of time before you fall over - right? Meaning, if you are to stop committing suicide then you have to stop the hacking.

Community assemblies are the new frontline of class conflict: the administrators vs the administered. They’ll try to derail the common will with “engagement” and pompous speeches, but change is coming.

I’ve been out of prison six months and I’m back organising: door-knocking, assemblies, building resistance. I write plainly about what’s coming and what we must do. No bullshit, no cold comfort. Subscribe if you want truth and strategy. Donate if you can.

Sharing this piece by @rogerhallam.com (co-founder of Extinction Rebellion): 'How to Start a Revolution in 2026'

It’s a provocative read about why the current political system is failing. The points on 'going to the people' and building power outside of traditional politics really speak out to me.
