โZines are really like this little atomic unit of freedom of the press with simple pamphlets that you just pass around. It begs the question of whether the prosecution believes that we should have a First Amendment in the first placeโ #ZinesAreNotACrime

ARIZONA - After a correctional officer allegedly assaulted a 20-year-old woman, as many as 200 of her fellow prisoners went on hunger strike for nearly three weeks.

This week, in the Prairieland case, Texas prosecutors are attempting to equate anarchism with terrorism.
While masked thugs in plainclothes assault and abduct people around the country.
While bombs destroy hospitals and elementary schools in Iran.

Just like during the J20 trails and the anti-Cop City RICO case, the state wants to make first amendment activity: speech, flyers, grassroots organizing - all symbiosis with "terrorism."
These attempts are a threat against everyone who is pushing for a better world.
Anarchism literally on trial today in Fort Worth, lots of back and forth about what a red and black flag means.
Dozens of people were arrested by state police and Hennepin County sheriff's deputies after a march against ICE to the Whipple Federal Building on the last planned protest of the 'Bring the Heat Melt The Ice!' week of action in Minnesota.

Important and much needed podcast and discussion from the folks at @thefirethesetimes.com and @fromtheperiphery.com on the unfolding Israeli-US war against Iran that threatens to grow into a large scale regional conflict.
Iโve unmasked a white nationalist fight club in my city: Montreal.
After weeks of work (with help!), I can reveal an Olympian as a member of the Frontenac Active Club โ one who, unbeknownst to the owners, brought them to a local gym for training and propaganda photos.
Hereโs my investigation:

Itโs been one year since the Assad regime fell, prompting a sequence of events that culminated in a new government leading Damascus under Mohammed al-Jolani, an ex-militant in al-Qaeda's Syrian wing. Here, Tรชkoลรฎna Anarลรฎst evaluates the previous year and the existential threat facing Rojava today.
Trump called for the US military to use US cities as "training grounds" to prepare for overseas wars. From Minneapolis to Iran, we face the same enemies.
Rival warlords attempting to assert control over collapsing empiresโthat is becoming the dominant form of governance.

We said this last September.
The attack on Iran will not be the last imperialist military adventure of the Trump regime. If he can consolidate enough power to do so, Trump will behave towards Latin America and even Europe the way Putin does towards Ukraine.
With horrific consequences for all.

shockingly people are capable of simultaneously,
1. Hating their government
2. Hating the people who bomb and sanction their country, making regular life impossible and murdering members of their family, even more

One of the core challenges for anyone doing liberatory work is figuring out how to meet people where they're at while simultaneously remaining principled and decent.
There is a difference between absolving the complicit and patiently finding a path to help folks recognize and end their complicity.
Sharing this interview again, as protesters in Iran make clear that continued US led massacres will do nothing to improve the lives of ordinary people fighting on the ground.
"Across the country, communities are fighting a network of warehouses the Trump administration is buying up to hold immigrants." truthout.org/articles/ice...
As people ready to rally and march against the unfolding war in Iran, sharing this 2003 documentary, 'We Interrupt this Empire,' about the direct action movement against the push towards war in Iraq. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lsod...
War is massacre of people who don't know each other for the profit of people who do know each other but don't massacre each other.
"The US and Israeli attack on Iran is morally repugnant. It is calculated only to benefit an elite of racist, Islamophobic warmongers. It will not benefit Iranians or ordinary people anywhere on earth."
Iโm now hearing up to 80 students. Iโm sure those kids will be presented as threats somehow, but theyโre little children with hopes and dreams and people who loved them and they're the exact people who are used tokenisitically in demands for regime change.
