Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 22/11/2024your 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). 091
Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 18/11/2024"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. 073
Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 18/11/2024thing 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. 0200

Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 17/11/2024a 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...kshb.com'We want answers': Independence apartment complex holds vigil for mother, baby killed in police shootingEight days ago, a baby and her mother were killed in a shooting involving Independence Police at Oval Spring Apartments.

Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 17/11/2024crimethinc 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. 1101

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. 070
Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 31/07/2023a 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. 060

Wendy Trevino @prolpo.bsky.social · 02/07/2023point is products designed by capitalists for the sake of profit should not be depended on by anti-capitalists. & as much as some ppl *now* think uprisings need social media more than social media needs uprisings, i do not agree. 030
