“This proposal for security culture is based on reframing on shifting our focus from fear to confidence, from risk aversion to courage, from isolation to connection, and from suspicion to trust.”

The Sun Still Rises
“Our own celebrations are during the night, when the shiny lights give their place to the thick darkness of delinquency and become the gasoline for the fire, the movement, the destruction. Because national unity is for the frightened, we shall never compromise with any state and any nation. Our only country is the Revolution, Violent and Subversive in its steps, bound to annihilate your old world.”
Communization: The Senile Decay of Anarchy
“Today’s era smells like engine oil, cheap labor, sweat and naphthalene of the morality of voluntary obedience… We do not want to be defined by the culture of techno-industrial fascism, the white uniforms of scientists, the neckties of technocrats, the eager silences of ordinary people, the stupid smiles of consumers… We do not match with the aesthetics of the glass world of flat television screens, the digital imitation of the life of social media, the display windows of lifestyle, the lens of security cameras. We do not fit in the society of captivity, the police checks of our identification papers, the supervision of security guards, the laws of the judges, the locked doors of prisons. We do not settle for the average normality dictated by morality, we don’t amuse our boredom with psychotropic drugs, we aren’t covered by the coldness of empty relations, we don’t read… Marx.”
Always Against the Tanks: Three Essays on Red Nationalism
“In ‘Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Tankies, But Were Afraid to Ask,’ Mike Harman uncovers the history of the term ‘tankie’ and its relationship to various strains of Marxism-Leninism. Then ‘Ending the Idealization of the Other’ draws on Su-lin Yu’s critique of Orientalism to explain why some queer people of color in North America support repression when it is committed by ‘socialist states.’ Finally, in ‘Is Genocide Denial Anti-Imperialist Now?’ Darya Rustamova confronts the fetishization of the USSR while expounding on the harm caused by those denying or minimizing genocide and war crimes.”
Stop Huntin’ Sheep: A Guide to Creating Safer Networks
“There appears to be a rise in known infiltration investigations in North American radical networks, with thorough destabilizing effects on our capacities to struggle, comrades facing heavy repression and of course, the less obvious consequences on our personal mental states. The place that we start is with dialogue. “
Fighting Back: Self-Defense for Women and Girls
“If we want to improve our lives as women, we need to look at our realities,
learn survival skills and support each other. With this, we can fight back
against intimidation and being pushed around, and take back control over
our lives.”
Cars as Cameras – A Short Overview of Tesla Surveillance Features and Lessons for Attack
Zine PDF
“While the rapid expansion of home surveillance systems like doorbell cameras has been extensively noted and attacked by anarchists,³ there has been less focus on the equally rapid expansion of vehicle-based surveillance systems.”
Blessed is the Flame
“The anarcho-nihilist position is essentially that we are fucked.1 That the current
manifestation of human society (civilization, leviathan, industrial society, global
capitalism, whatever) is beyond salvation, and so our response to it should be one
of unmitigated hostility. There are no demands to be made, no utopic visions to be
upheld, no political programs to be followed — the path of resistance is one of pure
negation”
Why I Left The PSL
“This world is ending. No global revolution is coming to save us. What worlds emerge is dependent on the particular trajectories the collapse will traverse in each region. Empire will survive in places where workers still prioritize the needs of the techo-industrial economy – be it capitalist of communist – over the needs of the world they inhabit.
Elsewhere, anarchy spreads like cracks in concrete. Anarchy, not anarchism. A diverse, decentralized mosaic of struggles for autonomy.
Until the land beneath the ruins of the colonial order is reclaimed by a life beyond Leviathan.”
Fuck Around and Find Out: An Obituary for Victimhood
“I wonder if without social law and order people would be encouraged to re-
engage with their senses and survival instincts – to discover a self-love so vivid
in the ecstasy of embracing one’s self as worthy of violent self-defense. In a
dangerous space, there would be no victims – only independent individuals in
full ownership of their lives, each peacefully existing with a mutual
understanding of assured consequences”
