all of the infrastructural manifestations of fascism are here: sweeping police state (bodily autonomy, crackdowns on anti-zionism), paramilitary infiltration (3 percenters, proud boys), dehumanization of the other (queer, immigrant, muslim, arab, jews especially anti-zionist ones), etc. is already here.

the last things left are explicit bans on proletarian organizations (unions, socialist parties) and sweeping restrictions on information (internet monitoring & censorship, especially of sexuality and anti-imperialism). oh wait, they’re already getting started on those (new york & antizionist social media, kosa/restrict, porn bans). fuck

Wear a face/eyes covering (e.g. mask and goggles), long black clothes that cover any body identifiers (e.g. tattoos), and perhaps some Kevlar gloves if you are paranoid. Ideally cycle to the location to & from a discreet clothes-changing station. The main threat here is doxxing and not legal-related.

I would approach this with the same caution that the Black Bloc approaches protests, especially since the "safety in numbers" is less of a factor here. Although if you are willing to accept some social risk, feel free to drop some of the more prohibitive precautions.

i'm sure that the IDF will totally respect even the 4 hours per day, and that the American media will totally hold them accountable.

when fascists say "so and so revolutionary movement will have you degenerates imprisoned and killed" they're not doing so out of concern. it's a mutually-suicidal curse directed outwards by those who will never be happy, and don't want anybody else to realize their true potential either.

 

Do they think the Catalan Anarchists had no bourgeois blood on their hands? Do they think the Makhnovites never executed counterrevolutionaries? Fucking idiots. I preferred it when anarchists actually threw pipe bombs.

The proletariat of the Arab nations would riot. In the imperial core, the media will pretend it is just another day in Israel’s “peaceful” ethnic cleansing. Except in Germany, where so-called leftists will attack Palestinians and call it “direct action”.

ahh the us senate, that sham institution cosplaying as a democratic legislature.

the only thing "green" about the German party is their love of US greenbacks.

Basically it’s self-professed centrists who support “the gays”, NATO, & Ukraine (PS) plus their right-wing Christian conservative allies (OLa’NO) vs nationalist welfare chauvinists who hate Roma people and “George Soros” (Smer-SD) but are NATO-skeptic and want out of Ukraine, plus their right-wing nationalist allies who like Josef Tiso (SNS). Our good Nazis versus their bad Nazis, am I right?

Slovakia is a socially-conservative country in which since the fall of the socialist bloc, the nominal center-left and center-right have both expressed reactionary cultural attitudes. PS is a relatively new party that has been an exception; given that they would govern in coalition with right-wing Christian conservatives and with a socially-conservative center-left in opposition, I doubt their professed stance would do much other than pinkwash NATO. I’m not going to hold my nose and cheer for Smer, although if they actually pull Slovakia out of NATO it would be extremely funny (albeit unlikely — Smer is a party of the establishment and has governed for most of post-2000 without doing this, not some radical populist party as the media paints it).
