Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 06/05/2026While states try to divide us - excluding some for the benefit of others, plundering the world only to shut the gates on those who flee the consequences - we fight for a better future for ALL, recognising & amplifying the work already being done, encouraging us all to take action wherever we can. 100
Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 06/05/2026These actions bring together our shared struggles - from housing and the cost of living, to the impact of racist policing, prison, and detention centres on our communities, to anti-imperialism and the struggle for liberation in Palestine, Sudan, Iran, and beyond! 100

Reposted by Books Against BordersPuff the Magic Hater @mskellymhayes.bsky.social · 27/01/2026This makes more sense, but it still isn't a good idea. It's important that a thoughtful, conscientious person on the ground decides when to film and when not to. Sometimes, protesters break the law. If everyone's continuously filming everything, there's a lot to subpoena. 518538

Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 08/10/2025so basically, fuck anyone using the language of 'democracy' to legitimise their policies of premature death. They are not interested in democracy but in power, and that should be obvious. They do not need some faux democratic legitimacy they need a punch to the throat 000
Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 08/10/2025Of course this has 'democratic' appeal in our warped society! And this narrative is used not only by fascist parties themselves, but by the media establishment and mainstream political parties to normalise and implement fascistic policies. 100
Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 08/10/2025Policies of mass deportation and militarised borders are not any less fascistic because they have popular support. Fascism operates through offering majority groups superficial (and often material!) benefits at the expense of the subordination, expulsion, and extermination of imagined 'Others'. 100
Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 08/10/2025Whatever false understanding of "democracy" we have under a capitalist and colonial system is still an avenue towards fascism, as the system itself breeds fascism. 100
Books Against Borders @againstborders.bsky.social · 08/10/2025One dangerously normalised thing (alongside all the other things) is this idea that if there are lots of people supporting something, it's not fascism, it's democracy. Masses of people supported slavery, segregation, apartheid, the british empire... Hitler was elected! 100
