This is some funny ‘long tail’ shit.

Yes, California and Texas were part of Mexico.

“We can’t return what we stole, they’d do ethnic cleansing to us.”

“it is easy to call land stolen, but what about the innocent purchasers who acquired in good faith in the interim? Are they thieves?”

This is the kind of shit that makes me think capitalists don’t actually believe in property. They only have an issue with theft when the loot isn’t laundered properly. ‘Civilization’ is just a word that means ‘fence’ to them.

National Shutdown, this Friday.

Anarchy is invigorating. Living under a tyrannical regime is exhausting.

Bryan answered by explaining in a post that the song “hits on both sides of the aisle”. He later added: “Left wing or right wing, we’re all one bird and American. To be clear, I’m on neither of these radical sides.” But this both-sides-ism felt incongruent with the song’s scathing message, heard in full for the first time on 9 January: law enforcement, ICE, and the onslaught of gun violence in America are contributing to the “fading of the red, white and blue”. (Bryan’s team declined an interview offer.)

It’s a start, but it is so milquetoast.

Just discovering this, top shelf.

China will lose for the same reason the United States is losing. Making decisions that benefit people generally, either short term or long term, is exactly what autocracies are terrible at. For all the 'green washing' of China's domestic policy, they are tacitly supporting and funding a war of aggression in Ukraine, and expanding their military in order to annex Taiwan. If their goal was ecological harmony, neither of those things would make sense.

China's central leadership will burn their nation's children to fuel their expansionist ideology, not to mention coal or petrol. Incandescent lightbulbs and disposable plastic is peanuts compared to incandescent diesel tanks and disposable jets.

The 'China is winning' headline is effective clickbait for jingoistic nationalists, but it's misguided to think fanning a national spirit of competition will change US government policy against the will of US national corporate interests. The United States and Chinese government are the same parasite with different flags.

It's nice to see someone publicly admit their mistakes, criticize the inherent autocracy in building new utopian cities, and move away from corporate idealism toward participatory politics.

Come on, bring your friends!

This text is a classic; it has been deeply influential in anarchist circles. Despite the title and the author, it is not an attack on anarchist philosophies or tactics. It is a very effective critique of groups that are doing something hierarchical and masking it as anarchist when it merely lacks visible structure to outsiders.

Your font choice looks great as always.

If you want strangers from the internet to show up, you can also advertise the event on !inperson@slrpnk.net. If you want to introduce some of your friends to SLRPNK, @prodigalfrog made some fliers aimed at protests you can use.
