There Are No Easy Fights In The Struggle Against The Empire

You fight them because what the hell else are you going to do? Even if the treads of the machine are going to roll over us all in the end, at least you’ll go down knowing you left it all in the ring.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

when the drones are perching on the telephone wires
and boats are exploding off the coast of Venezuela.

when there is black smoke over Palestine

A powerful quote from Bruce Lee:

“To me, ultimately, martial art means honestly expressing yourself. It’s very difficult to do. It is easy for me to put on a show and be cocky... or I can show you some really fancy movement. But to express oneself honestly... that, my friend, is very hard to do.”

I was sentenced to five years in prison — for a Zoom call.

This is what I learned about suffering, transcendence, and why resistance still matters.

47.4°C in Iran — nearly the hottest October temperature ever recorded in the northern hemisphere. 🔥
