My local 50501 just ousted its main leader because he got into a polycule with 3 other leaders (hes like 50 they were in their 20s. divorce incoming)

There was an orgy after a protest. Someone took blackmail photos. So so messy.

Its so fucking easy to stay professional and yearn on bsky instead

Trainings available in indianapolis! get a group together and who knows we could come out to "a city in ohio" dm me for signal

I hear volunteers talk about activism before fnb. Stories of being passionate enough to start an action

But they didn't have the connections, resources or confidence to succeed. It's so discouraging!

Anarchists have a responsibility to give them those tools and show what ~real shit~ feels like

They came for lots of reasons but it boils down to two things.

1) the democrats are failing and now its their responsibility

2) meeting their own emotional needs that capitalism takes from them: connection w/ radicals, authentically seeing an issue, and feeling effective solving a problem

Sometimes it just isn't worth giving something airtime when it isnt popping off on the internet, and i get y'all only have so many hours in the day

i got recommended it by a friend gave it and the jakarta method a try

I gave If We Burn a read earlier this year. It was really harsh critique and i took it with a grain of salt- my long term takeaway was to be more careful of centralized political elements. It would help if i had more context about the author and hear others accounts about the events

And i notice this in myself too!! I'm averse to doing things that might carry even light concequences until someone is like hey lets go out together

Repeat after me: "i will not buy fake medical supplies on amazon"

"I WILL learn how to use this in person with a trained professional and now just buy a kit to feel safer"

How could you not?? It comes with the territory of writing and reading out something beautiful and tragic and inspiring.

currently organizing stop the bleed classes and giving out first aid kits to the homies. If youre inspired to help - then ur local food not bombs might know who to call

Haussmannisation is one example! after the Paris commune France poured so much fucking money into moving Parisian buildings further apart and widen the narrow streets into boulevards so theyre harder to barricade

Moreover, friends should show up for the homies!

You can do the consumption thing and give food, clothing, makeup ect BUT what they might rly need is

connection authenticity and efficacy. Get folks together. have a meeting. Make a plan!

Nobody is going to survive this alone including you, reader

No wonder leftists are talking about "hyperboject" this and "climate disaster is far away until youre recording it" that. - When the everyday persons politics is mediated by the spectacle then of course everything feels like a fucking dream we cant wrap our brain around
