Liberation insists on what could yet be, breaking down what is. And we must never stop insisting... From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

"that vulnerability is itself socially produced and thus capitalist policies which kill vulnerabilised people function just as if they were expressly created to target them, regardless of the stated intention." Prometheus putting out banger after banger!

Joe Gallagher and Arianna Introna look at recent British state policy as targeted social murder, contextualising its eugenic function and clarifying the horizons of working-class resistance to this rising tide. prometheus-mag.com/2026/09/03/h...

For Prometheus, I wrote about the concept of Social Murder developed by Engels and @nhold.bsky.social, as a way to explain the dialectic of fascism in terms of its points of continuity and rupture with liberal capitalism, and its new libidinal economy of cruelty. prometheus-mag.com/2026/03/26/t...

The US and Israel are bombing Iran. Anyone reporting it as “preventive” is engaging in propaganda, by definition. There is no interpretation of what’s happening as anything else than a crime. You don’t have to like the Iranian regime to understand why this is bad.

The thing is, there's plenty of analysis going on and more to come. But honestly this morning I just woke up and laughed at the thought of Keir Starmer's face seeing the news.

Historically the colonial politics of recognition required there to be a subject to recognise. But recognition was always conditional on being the right kind of indigenous subject. So i guess that subject can now be automated based on what's statistically likely for the idealised subject to say...

Teleological thinking re: biology is a big driver in fascism, it seems. Supposedly neutral facts about our bodies are "meant to do" are load-bearing for fascist attacks on trans people and cis women.

There's a through line from Labour/Steve Reed saying 'build baby build' and effectively trying to deregulate construction sector to the attack on human rights law. A fascistic embrace of efficency that rejects regulation, considerations about social benefit and rejects thoughtful consideration

Suella Braverman, "There is a very strong case to increase the powers of any immigration enforcement officers that we deploy" "At the moment they're hamstrung by human rights laws, by health and safety laws, by all sorts of needless and obstructive bureaucracy"

Israeli forces are massacring Palestinian journalists - committing war crimes on a scale that would normally make headline news - and yet Western media are still calling this a "ceasefire". Pure propaganda.

There’s a reason why Carney’s speech made numerous mentions of ‘great powers’ and ‘intermediate/middle powers’ but not a single mention of the implied third category.
