The Future Was Up For Grabs
14/06/20182016: “We do have an opportunity, and it’s our opportunity to lose. We have to get our shit together and seize it. Periods of repression and hardship don’t automatically translate into more resistance.”

SIGMATA: Is Popular-Front Antifascism a Fantasy?
01/06/2018We’re probably incapable, as a society, of forming even a tenuous temporary popular front in the case of extreme emergency. We can’t even appeal, it seems, to the basic precept that genocide is bad. That’s scary.
This Is What Antifascism Looks Like
15/05/2018The more publicity this case gets, the safer our comrades will be in remand prison from violence at the hands of prison stooges and more torture at the hands of the FSB.
Climate Crisis
The Death of Civilization and the Life Beyond Hopelessness
03/08/2018Beyond hopelessness there is a new kind of hope that opens up, which is a faith in the basic tissue of human existence, our connection to one another, our ability to persist in even the worst conditions, our ability to make joyful, meaningful, rich lives in the shittiest places.

Racism, Poverty, War, Climate Destruction: “All of these things have to be solved together.”
16/05/2018If we combine the ideas of ending tax cuts for the rich and cutting the military budget, we would have all the money we need for all these things we need for our survival.

A Planetary Paradigm Shift
15/05/2018Seriously thinking about how to confront climate change exposes the limits of our political imagination. We have to begin by realizing where we stand in the longer arc of the Earth’s natural history.

Climate Trauma: From Denial and Panic to Anger and Action
04/03/2018There is no way that we can get out of the warming condition or prevent climate breakdown without destroying and terminating things that are dangerous.
Dreaming With Our Hands
16/01/2018In the sudden absence of basic supplies, people have found the means of survival in each other, and in the resources and land at their disposal.

Calling Forth a New Internationalist Left
19/06/2018For migrants and their autonomous struggles, the factor of “race” is a social relationship through which “class experience” is made. Not the other way around. An internationalist leftwing counternarrative must take this as its starting point.

The Freedom to Go Anywhere
16/06/2018As long as there are individual states, there will be borders that determine which state is responsible for which section of the Earth’s surface. But there is no reason to assume that these borders must be “closed.”
The Struggle of Women Across the Sea
30/04/2018What falls out of sight through the constant repetition of victimhood narratives are the moments of survival, political agency, and resistance that demonstrate migrant women’s tenacity and the ways in which they transform themselves, others, and the spaces they pass through on their journeys.
This is Hell!
The Death of Civilization and the Life Beyond Hopelessness
03/08/2018Beyond hopelessness there is a new kind of hope that opens up, which is a faith in the basic tissue of human existence, our connection to one another, our ability to persist in even the worst conditions, our ability to make joyful, meaningful, rich lives in the shittiest places.
There’s Work to Do in Rojava
15/07/2018It’s not utopia; it’s very difficult here. But there is the opportunity to come and learn from local people who know very much about the land and very much about the situation here, to study together, to build things together, to share knowledge.
Overcoming Identity Politics Paralysis
30/06/2018If we’re going to criticize identity politics, it must be from a perspective that is itself antiracist and feminist, one that is seeking the most useful way of thinking—and acting—to oppose racism and sexism.
Localization, Worldwide
19/06/2018Do people know that supermarkets routinely fly apples to the UK from South Africa to be washed, and then they’re flown back again? Norway flies fish to China to be de-boned and then flies it back. We are talking about the most outrageous waste, and a major cause of climate change.
