Esta semana sale Un país entre dos tiempos (@lenguaycirculo.bsky.social y @cbamadrid.es). Un ensayo para recordar las transformaciones políticas de los últimos años en España, comprender su relevancia histórica - sin idealizaciones ni cinismo - y recuperar herramientas para nuestro presente. /1

Aprender de los aciertos
Cerrar el ciclo político sin identificar sus aciertos solo refuerza el no se puede dominante

I have to give it to my man Jack here. It's true: Antifascists have been around for almost 100 years now. Exactly the same time since there have been fucking fascists and fucking nazis around.

From Donald Trump's Roundtable on Antifa just now —
"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

Fascinante lectura sobre la influencia de René Girard sobre Peter Thiel. Sobre oscuras e irónicas dialécticas: Anticristo/katechon, competición mimética/chivos expiatorios, Apocalipsis/salvación. Y entre teólogos pacifistas y billonarios idiotas y, en el fondo, con mucho miedo del mundo.
The Real Stakes, and Real Story, of Peter Thiel’s Antichrist Obsession
Thirty years ago, a peace-loving Austrian theologian spoke to Peter Thiel about the apocalyptic theories of Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt. They’ve been a road map for the billionaire ever since.

I’ve received multiple death threats + doxing (including my home address) directly following harassment from Turning Point USA, Jack Posobiec, Andy NGO, + Fox News which called me an antifa ‘financier.’

I have been forced to move my classes online.

If journalists want to talk, DM me or reply here.

Breaking news: ICE stops family at gunpoint—smash car window on top of newborn baby.

"I was screaming that there was a baby. But they didn’t care," cried mother.

“I covered my baby with my body—I was so scared he was going to be hurt because glass was landing on him."

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 3: Earl Manigault

When he stepped onto the court, the world watched. No one dunked harder or jumped higher. But the GOAT never made it pro.

There are countless NYC stories like his. Brilliant talents lost to drugs or crime. It doesn’t have to be this way.
