To my recent point about the left needing to develop propaganda literacy as one of the top three most critical tactical advances, everyone needs to emblazon, “Not sharing the disinfo/propaganda because that’s what they want” on their eyeballs. Repeat it as a mantra three times before you log on.

“When I hear about Democrats, I immediately think of corrupt Nazi whores,” bogus Sarah Jessica Parker says in one. “If you love America, never vote for Democrats.” Most are ripped from Cameo vids. The campaign is (per usual) ham-fisted and hasn't spread. Not sharing bc that's what this op wants.

This is Dez. He's a really sweet anarchist artist who draws cute possums and got 30 years for carrying a box of zines. He wants folks to send him (paperback) books on animals and nature, magazines about tattoos, comics and manga. You can just open up an amazon cart rn with delivery as a gift.

The end of noblogs.org does not simply represent a threat to anarchists or volunteer-run tech collectives. The Trump administration aims to shut down any institution or project that it perceives to stand in the way of its pursuit of totalitarian control. We must fight them every inch of the way.

At the Turning of the Tide

We revisit the structural forces behind Trump's return to power, review the events of 2025, and propose a strategy for how to fight our way out of the Trump era.

The tech collective behind NoBlogs.org and a host of other free online initiatives has announced that they are shutting down as a consequence of the US State Department designating them a "global terrorist." This represents a significant blow to online freedom. keepitfree.ai/announcement...

The day we discovered we had been designated a global terrorist organization, we promised that we would try to resist as long as this was possible, that we would not back down as long as we could see options to stand our ground. For years, we have proudly maintained and defended a free, privacy-friendly, autonomous and politically committed infrastructure. 

“Stay human” is not an empty phrase to us.

It means, above all, that we have a responsibility to protect our users, those who build the human networks we rely, and for the communities who flooded us with messages of support and solidarity.Now turn off your PCs, get out of your homes, struggle, hug each other and keep on smiling. We are stopping, but the Resistance and ideas do not stop. Stay human.

We will soon send instructions on how to back up the content of your blogs, mailboxes and websites, along with more technical recommendations. But keep in mind that, just as the autistici.org domain was made unreachable without previous notice, in the next few days we might suffer similar issues that we may not be able to predict.

US Government Designates Host of NoBlogs.org a “Global Terrorist” crimethinc.com/noblogs Building on years of social media bans, the terrorist designation of Autistici/Inventati is another step towards state repression on the basis of ideology alone. This will not stop with anarchist projects.

Illinois law says local officials can't help federal agents deport people. So how did so many residents end up on ICE's radar through information shared by local police, sheriffs, and prosecutors? I filed 394 FOIA requests to find out. (An @injusticewatch.org partnership with @theintercept.com!)

Illinois promised to protect immigrants. Local officials helped deport them anyway.

In over a third of Illinois counties, cops, sheriffs, and even prosecutors helped federal immigration agents route at least 150 people into the deportation system since Trump returned to office, despi...

ICE abducted 4 community members today in Chicago, the first day of school. In one case, they crashed into a car on the highway & took the driver. Then, ICE's fucked up car was stuck in the neighborhood, where no tow truck company would rescue them-except Vic's Towing in Schiller Park. Collaborators

Please call Vic's in Schiller Park *67 8472330733 and let them know how you feel about their collaboration with ICE.Vic's Towing - this was the truck that rescued ICE's vehicle after they crashed it into a car deliberately and abducted the driver, who was in a work uniform. No business for ICE collaborators.

NEW: Flock has said for years that its cameras "cannot track individuals." We found the code for its new AI tool. It's preloaded w/ prompts like "Find me witness" & "find relatives." One tracks visitors of multiple hotels, another if you visit banks after midnight. www.wired.com/story/flock-...

A white supremacist band from South Africa, The SoapGirls, is playing a show Aug 26 in Chicago at the Liars Club. Their songs celebrate violence against Black folks and spread lies about so-called Black-on-white violence. 1/2

Lyrics from the SoapGirls song Black Mass: "Get ready savager are coming around, it's a black plague, savages are coming around..." it goes on like this. It's a bunch of racist bullshit.X post from the SoapGirls from December 13, 2020 that states "Absolutely disgusting don't let America become like Africa @realdonaldtrump should put laws to stop these terrorists called #antifaThe SoapGirls are also fans of Qanon conspirarcy theory according to a post on X from January 19, 2021.

New: We pieced together dozens of violent incidents from the ICE agents seen in viral videos from Virginia this week. They've roamed across multiple states, but are most often working in Chicago. We also verified the identity of Martin Lagunas, the fed who pointed his gun at a woman on Monday:

Dont wanna be overly alarmist but why don’t I see more people and designers freaking out over PPWR? It affects everyone shipping anything to any EU country. Starting Wednesday. I’m thinking web shops but also kickstarter fulfillment etc. Feels like the whole industry should be talking about it?

Yep. See also Mussolini constantly quoting anarchists. Fascism arose as a response to anarchism, we both cut through the tangled delusions of liberalism, but fascism simply inverts anarchist moral values so that might is right. Fascists are often sharply clearheaded about what the state is.

Schmitt did read bakunin, and the term "political theology" is a direct lift from some of his writing

Thomas777 is a neo-Nazi w ties to old school boneheads in the Chicago area. He's become a fash intellectual & took his carefully curated hipster costumes w him to Jared Taylor's annual AmRen conf - a gathering of white nationalists like Patriot Front - in 2023. Young bucks revere him as an old head.

In that same interview, TC’s favorite “historian” talks about writing the foreword to a new book by Thomas777. That Thomas fellow (pictured below) has said that "Hitler will be remembered in 1,000 years as the warlord who prevented Soviet world domination."
