great book. Depressing how constant colonial racism has been right up to today. It’s one of those books like tristram shandy that would be labeled post-modernist today and is especially modern in the sense that it has little essays and histography in between jokes and meta-fiction

a good look at how violence changes a movement asymmetrical warfare is never just but it’s probably most brutal when it’s a guerrilla war within the same towns and cities. can you fight a just war in this way? a lot to think about

Very depressing. Written in the 80s and we’re in the exact same place making the exact same mistakes with the exact same discourse. Except now, the Palestinians have been genocided from gaza

What are we doing? I don’t get why people can’t just like the fascist writer. Like, Mishima has a different reading for queer people, I get that but trying to absolve him of fascism just isn’t it

the second one is from a book called lineups which is a bunch of list poems organised like a baseball lineup and it’s great

Shards of god by Ed Sanders. It‘s like voltaire if he was a yippie or the lead singer of the fugs Purely a product of the counter-culture mixing aliens, the CIA, communism, cartoon sex, occult maxims, prayers to Malcom X, etc. etc.

There’s too much to say in a bsky post. my politics are anti-clerical but I have a higher tolerance for catholic cranks than outright fascists. People call me a hater but when I criticise reactionary and fascist writing, I’ve put in the work, I read everything I criticise. i need a trash break

By what means can we bring about the conversion we so earnestly desire?' The last two sentences had occurred in one of Pankaj Rai's speeches. 'By the sword, Mr Biswas said. "The only thing. Conversion by the sword.'

the pretentious line would be that this is a great example of guattari’s minor literature but it’s strength is it’s funny and about failure which is the only kinds of books worth reading

I hate books like this because I’ve lived it and it’s not very fun being reminded of a life of poverty, drink, and violence but brian nelson did an amazing translation that keeps the humour alive. I’ve read 2 other translations of the assonmoir and this one is the best
