“It increasingly seems that the Americanization of TikTok was never about protecting us from a foreign adversary. It was a tactical acquisition of digital infrastructure.”

What does it mean to be hot for revolution—to feel a desire to transform the world in your belly and your bones?
Here's my latest, on how erotic desire feeds political agency. I draw on AIDS activism, disability justice & other movements against sexual oppression.

"Words forged by revolutionary criticism are like partisans’ weapons: abandoned on the battlefield, they fall into the hands of the counterrevolution...like prisoners of war, they are subjected to forced labor.

The editorial for Issue 2 is dedicated to the late Joshua Clover. A comrade and friend to many, Joshua stands as a model of theoretical rigor, ecumenicism, and commitment to the incendiary spirit of the communist project. heatwavemag.info/magazine/iss...

When Joshua passed away in late April, social media was filled with a cornucopia of similar stories from those lucky enough to see him in his element: at the riot, the occupation, the barricade.
