This but also please don’t forget the death squads they sent for Fred Hampton in Chicago and MOVE in Philly and AIM on Pine Ridge, the death squads they ran for over a decade in Afghanistan and Iraq, the death squads they’re funding in Israel, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil...
Canada's forests are sticking in my lungs open.substack.com/pub/petergel...
Canada's wildfires have put 200 million tons of CO2 into the atmosphere but next spring they'll claim a 2026 emissions reduction because the official carbon accounting system does not count the wildfires that capitalist forestry practices make inevitable.
Pacifists will lump neo-Nazi murderers into their ambiguous "violence" category, where they also place so many revolutionary movements. To promote nonviolence, they erase our history of what works and what doesn't. Are they forgetting what it took to stop the original Nazis?
Also, get the answers for the last round of 3TFs and play the new one! open.substack.com/pub/petergel...
They say this, but none of the pacifists, liberals, and green capitalists in the world have any feasible plan for stopping or even slowing the ongoing ecological apocalypse. The mainstream solution is fully tied into the carbon economy, and it's only making things worse.
People seem really disempowered these days, but working for peace is easy! Just ride a bike and set the State on fire.
People seem really demoralized these days, but going green is easy! Just ride a bike and set the State on fire.
Huge agro-corporation Cargill was taking over the entire Tapajós, a major Amazonian river, for shipping its forest-destroying soy and corn. Indigenous action forced them to step down! Occupying ships, grain terminals, factories, and offices: direct action gets the goods!

Hey folks, when you see pacifist garbage like this being spread, please let them know it's already thoroughly debunked. One of the original authors of this "comparative" methodology worked for the US State Dept for f*s sake. theanarchistlibrary.org/library/pete...
Trump: Columbus left an "extraordinary legacy of faith, courage, perseverance, and virtue" Columbus: "Let us in the name of the Holy Trinity go on sending all the slaves that can be sold."
A new print run of Anarchy Works just came out from @detritusbooks.bsky.social and it's on sale! Capitalism and the State are dragging us into an abyss of multiplying catastrophes, telling us we can't exist without them. Guess what? We already have and we can do so again!
If you know anyone in Texas, please tell them: This is caused by global warming, which means it is caused by rich people and the way they treat our planet
A great example of how environmentalism can be colonial, and participate in the erasure of Indigenous peoples, knowledge, and networks. Brought to you by @nytimes.com
I don't usually do commercials and 99.9% of the time I believe movies can be at best emotionally important but otherwise reactionary or recuperative, but if there's any independent cinema near you, please see Sinners!
Ethical platforms & the purity test: a thread Assuming this guy spends so much time lecturing strangers about their impure consumer choices out of good intention and coherent analysis, I'd like to know: once you get the money from a platform that is supposedly Nazi-free, what bank do you use... 1/
If these clowns weren't deliberately ignorant of history (if they even just read that two page article they're fuming about), they would realize that, oopsie, the Communist Party and the USSR collaborated with the Nazis on multiple occasions...
What do you know, the moment this got a certain amount of traction, I started getting harassed and trolled for my first time yet on Bluesky! Just another confirmation that reformists don't have any actual arguments. Let's keep it up!
Please help fight back against these Democratic, pacifist conspiracy theories. These mf'ers work hand-in-hand with the cops and then try to speak for the movement. They've always been saying it's provocateurs, but it's people who actually care more about life than about banks and cop shops! THREAD!
Every year they erase the past: Peaceful protests accomplish nothing besides killing movements The Democrats support the genocide in Palestine, killer cops, greenwashing, transphobia, deportations, and then they act like they're the leaders of the resistance. Are we going to forgive and forget?
Our friends in Indonesia need urgent and substantial support to survive this onslaught and spread the wider struggle! more info in thread, please spread!
8 years ago today we lost a life long anarchist organizer and fighter, Joaquina Dorado. She survived the civil war, prison, clandestinity and the armed struggle, and all the betrayals of democracy. She survived to be just shy of 100, and participated in the movement until the end.
