JANUARY 29, 2025

I tweet a screenshot of a text, sent to 
Me by doordash: Lenin is approaching 
With your order from Subway. I caption 
It: Such a strange time we live in. It 
Is January 29, 20
25. Donald Trump is President 
Again. & much like the President that 
Came before this, his second term, he is 
Not going to defund the police. & 
The Democrats are saying that he is. 
He's not. A comrade replies to my tweet 
With a screenshot of a poem called "Lenin:" 
Lenin walks around the world. Frontiers can- 
Not bar him. / He's got your fucking sandwich.

your political “scene” is not redeemable if there are ppl you would have to do public talks claiming the 3rd precinct was burned down by white supremacists (a racist conspiracist theory).

"social democracy with molotovs" as a desire among a certain set of supposed radicals bent on preserving liberal democracy as the "optimal fighting ground" is a very real thing & it's pathetic.

thing about most critiques of liberal anti-oppression pol is that, while they might be strong in the actual critique, their "solutions" to amount to something like "we've got to dei dei" & they tend to not value militancy & so are doomed to be doomed to return to some form of the same pol.

a little over a week ago a 2-month-old & her mother were shot & killed by police in Independence, MO. body cam footage has not been released. “A law enforcement presence was not allowed at the vigil due to tension between the family and police.” www.kshb.com/news/local-n...

'We want answers': Independence apartment complex holds vigil for mother, baby killed in police shooting
Eight days ago, a baby and her mother were killed in a shooting involving Independence Police at Oval Spring Apartments. The sentiment at a candlelight vigil on Friday evening was similar to that day.

crimethinc responded terribly after michael reinoehl shot a fascist in PDX. both online & in an essay written shortly thereafter they basically urged white people to stick together / not to turn on each other with life-ending violence. but it was far from just crimethinc that sucked in that moment.

Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 17/11/2024
& yet “we” need to take it as a given that the oppressor will have accomplices among the oppressed. stop treating this as something that could possibly not be the case. it can be better or worse, but it will always be the case b/c a shared identity isn’t the SUPER glue ppl think it is.

a thing that brings me comfort abt some of my friends is their adaptability / how they will find / create, if they have to, a sense of “community” (in the most flexible sense of that word—necessarily) wherever & i do mean wherever they are. truly humbled by the reality of this.

social media sites like twitter were never for “the people.” they are capitalist ventures made more or less useful by the ppl who use them & who inadvertently help capitalists figure out how to make them profitable…

Millennials Are Killing Capitalism: “The Messages We Refuse To Learn From” - Felicia Denaud on the Unnameable War and Afro-Assembly
This is part one of a two part conversation with Felicia Denaud. Felicia Denaud is a writer, poet, and professor of Africana Studies at the University of Cincinnati. She writes, in the words of Sylvia Wynter, toward the end of empire, war, and accumulation by elimination. She’s listens, in the words of Dhoruba bin Wahad for “.” In this part of the discussion we get into Denaud’s work around two key and very interesting concepts within her work. One she describes as the “Unnameable War,” and the other the “Master-State Complex.” We also begin to talk about the piece that spurred this conversation, Denaud’s recent essay “,” which was published by The Caribbean Philosophical Association. In our discussion of that essay here we ask Denaud about what she draws from revolutionary Grenada and Safiya Bukhari. And we close this part of the discussion with Denaud sharing some of the areas of Haitian history that are not examined and appreciated with the care and inquiry they should be if we truly have a dedication to defending revolutions. Felicia wanted us to highlight the fundraising campaign for , an incarcerated abolitionist who will be coming home soon in Washington state and the campaign to . We will include links to both of those campaigns . And as always if you appreciate the work that we do bringing you conversations like this on a weekly basis, please become a patron of the show. You can do so for as little as $1 a month, our work is only possible through - and only funded by - the support of listeners just like you. Support at  Part two of this conversation with Felicia Denaud will be released this coming week. Links: // “
