Excellent reporting by Phil Williams on the neo-nazi active club network in TN. In April, Sean Craig & I reported that Tristan Rettke—a registered EMT in Nashville—joined riot-style combat events at a compound in VA. theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2026/apr/07/neo-nazi-virginia-combat-event

A few days ago, Shandon Simpson, a nazi who famously goes by "Zoran Zoltanous" online, was arrested in Chicago, Illinois. According to his own words, he was arrested for "beating the shit" out of a black woman using a baseball bat.

The 1998 murders of Dan and Spit represent the cutting of threads in a fabric woven across time by countless contributors and crews before and after. The entire tapestry is changed by their absence, offset by the shape of their loss. Every anti-racist must know their story and continue earnestly.

The hunger strike that detainees at Delaney Hall Detention Center are maintaining despite violent repression from ICE is only one of several hunger strikes taking place in detention centers around the country. Do you live near one of them? If you do, you could help spread resistance on the outside.
SUPPORT THE HUNGER STRIKES

One year ago, four detainees broke walls and escaped from Delaney, taking
cover in a protest outside. Now detainees are on strike, and hundreds of us are
building barricades to prevent ICE from transferring them. Now, hunger
strikes are spreading at detention centers across the country.

MN Torrance County 
Detention Facility, NM
MN Adelanto Facility, CA 
MN Desert Annex, CA 
Prairieland Detention Center, TX 
Northlake, MI 
Delaney Hall, NJ 

They push from inside, we push from outside.
Together, we can break down the walls.

Hi there and welcome to #FridayFucksorSucks, a weekly game with simple rules. This week the Pedersen Device. Built during WW1 they converted 1903 Bolt action rifles into Direct Blowbpack semiautomatic pistol caliber carbines. Chambered in .30-18 Auto, they had 25 round magazines. 100,000 were made.
The original device inserted into a 1903, from the side. The magazine extended out to the right and up.The magazines were spring fed but gravity assisted. Technically the magazine would feed the gun from the bottom but the design of the implementation made putting the magazine below the gun basically impossible without drastically reconstructing the rifle.The device, when shouldered, was supposed to give a capable semiautomatic platform to the shooter, especially as they would not likely be carried long distances with the magazine extending out from the top of the gun.The device itself. You can see how the barrel lines up with the chamber and barrel of the gun rather than being a whole gun on it's own.

The Pedersen devices were developed and tested at the very end of WW1 and as a result most of them were destroyed.
