As Ben Morea, a crucial part of the anarchist milieu since the mid-60s, continues to participate in public events in his 84th year, he needs our help. We offer this shirt, featuring the cover of Black Mask #9. Proceeds go towards his living & travel expenses, in lieu of another economic safety net.
Bluesky is owned and operated by capitalists. We are doing ourselves harm by depending on these communication platforms.

The Greek anarchist group Revolutionary Struggle was added to the FTO list in 2009 by Obama's Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. Another Greek anarchist group, Conspiracy of Cells of Fire, was added in 2011, five years before Trump's first election.
Wow: the Trump administration is for the first time ever designating four "Antifa" groups as Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
This is a big step. Until now, they had only pursued a domestic terrorist org designation, which has less teeth than FTO.

what if the vast, complex conspiracy of powerful men to ensure they evade consequences for violence and exploitation is just the description of every government.

On November 11, 1887, four anarchists were hanged, after being found guilty of murder of a cop in Chicago's Haymarket Square, though the prosecutor admitted that they were actually tried for being anarchists.

I'm dead serious y'all, you can keep being fooled into thinking that politicians are here to help you, or you can get to work building a world that isn't dependent on the abusive relationship that is government.

Fuck right wing populism, fuck the cross crass alliance, in which the white working/lower class allies with the white owning class against, or at the expense of, people they deem others. It's not cool, it's a deadly scam. Abandon whiteness, destroy class society.
You do not, under any circumstances, "Gotta hand it to Marjorie Taylor Greene."

the US prison system is one of the worst things to happen in the history of the world, but this statement isn't true.
It's true that there are potentially more prisoners in US prisons right now than there were at the height of the gulag system: about 1.8M USA 2025 vs 1.7-2.4M USSR 1953.

Not actually looking forward to this next cycle of people being disappointed by politicians.
I really don't enjoy watching people get duped by politicians every 2–4 years.

just an fyi, naomi klein went to a village in eastern greece that was fighting a gold mine, and rather than encourage direct resistance to the mine (which the villagers were already doing, and going to jail for), she channeled their energy into SYRIZA and her book, all while spouting NVDA fluff

The only bad thing about Dick Cheney dying is that he got to die a natural death instead of being taken out by one of his countless victims.

I am once again reminding folks that Democrats continuously voted to increase funding to ICE, paid lip service to the panic over illegal immigration, and campaigned on being tougher on the border. This shit isn’t happening in a vacuum.
