Joe Biden’s calling for people to be prosecuted just for being anarchists and if you honestly think you’ve still got an electoral way to avoid fascism this should be a wake up slap
Biden says he wants to throw me in prison, and you still expect me to not say anything bad about him that might “discourage people from voting”?
Even on this post the ‘okay but vote’ crowd shows up to preach their pointless electorialism over any kind of actual resistance.
I swear, the Gestapo could be rounding up minorities in their street and executing political opponents in broad daylight and they’d still be talking about how it’s important to vote for the next Gestapo-In-Chief because Candidate Heinrich Mc Fascism Light promised not to execute political opponents on Sundays and that’s like 1/7th less murder time.
Liberals are the most spineless fascists I have ever seen.
all I can see is “no, you don’t have our solidarity”, and the message has been received loud and clear
@scottishwobbly I wanted to send an ask but it wouldn’t let me. I find this very interesting and agree with you that both candidates are Bad™️ and it’s like America is being forced to choose between two people that they don’t even want. I hate it. I’m wondering what you think the solution should be? Like what should we do? Because I am interested in what other like-minded people think would fix this problem. I am surprised there has not been a revolution in our country over our government yet and I keep wondering what is going to be the last straw, if ever. (You can send back an ask if it would be easier).
yeah my blog is fucked that way, i won’t show in your notifications or notes either, but honestly going through my posts from the last few days n reading the articles etc should provide insight for starting points, as far as organisations go, the IWW is a directly democratic worker’s union with several community defense committees across the so-called united states: https://iww.org/
Try find a local Food Not Bombs chapter or other mutual aid networks - searching your area + mutual aid / food not bombs on social media is the easiest way to find them usually.
But most importantly, talk to your friends and neighbours, get to know what their political motivations and limits are, and start discussing potential actions you could realistically achieve together to contribute to an aspect of the struggle that motivates you most
“On Saturday, July 25th, 2020, revolutionaries gathered in cities
across the country in response to the deployment of unmarked vans filled
with ICE and other fascist personnel to Portland, OR, snatching
comrades off of the streets in recent weeks; as well as plans to send
these thugs to other cities in the weeks to come. Meanwhile, the murder
of black people by police and right-wing civilians continues unabated.
Precincts were attacked, State vehicles burned throughout the night, and countless federal buildings were smashed.
Here is a brief rundown of some of the events that transpired in the U.S. on July 25:
ATLANTA, GA: Revolutionaries attacked a Department of Homeland
Security building, blasting it with fireworks and smashing windows.
AURORA, CO: Revolutionaries took over an interstate highway and lit a courthouse on fire.
AUSTIN, TEXAS: A protestor was murdered by a fascist.
BALTIMORE, MD: A Baltimore Fraternal Order of Police building was
attacked by revolutionaries. Its building was defaced and its American
flag was burned.
LOS ANGELES, CA: A number of federal buildings were attacked.
Revolutionaries smashed windows and launched water bottles at police.
LOUISVILLE, KY: More than 300 members of the Atlanta-based Black
militia NFAC, or “Not F**king Around Coalition” came to Louisville
demanding justice for 26-year-old Breonna Taylor, an ER technician who
was fatally shot by pigs in March. Wearing all black and carrying
assault rifles, members marched in military-style formation from Baxter
Park in the Russell neighborhood to Metro Hall where they
stopped around 2:45 p.m. at police barricades.
Right across was a smaller group of 50 far-right “Three Percenter”
militia members, who were also heavily armed. These right wing armed
vigilantes came to support the pigs.
NEW YORK, NY: At least one NYPD vehicle was smashed and revolutionaries set barricades on fire.
OAKLAND, CA: Militants set fire to a courthouse, vandalized a police station and shot fireworks at officers.
RICHMOND, VA: A garbage truck was set on fire outside police headquarters.
SACRAMENTO, CA: Windows at City Hall were shattered and protest
slogans were spray-painted onto the front doors of the Sacramento
County Main Jail.
Revolutionary anarchists in the U.S. stand in solidarity with these
uprisings. The impending collapse of the U.S. empire is long overdue.
Abolition has never been so palpably within reach. Alongside
revolutionary activities taking place worldwide, in response to fascist
regimes and the inherent cruelties of capitalism alike, these events
make clear that the people of the world have had enough.
We are ready and willing to take back what’s ours!”
