Momentum doesn’t magically appear—someone bleeds for it. If a comrade asks you to show up to the “nobody’s there yet” spot, say yes. That’s the moment that makes the moment. That’s where movements are born.
Hive mind, I need a travel boost. One grant got nuked. Another in limbo. I’m headed to the Netherlands later this month to run my mouth about radical film. Point me to Canada orgs that fund last-minute travel for troublemaking filmmakers. Comment or DM. #radicalfilm #cdnfilm #artistgrant
So uh… turns out we accidentally tried to charge y’all the GDP of a small country for a fuckin’ T-shirt. 😬 If you're in so-called Canada and saw our merch prices recently and thought, “Damn, these punks really went full capitalist,”—nah. What actually happened is our store was converting USD to CAD like we were selling gold-threaded hoodies blessed by the Pope. (We’re not. They’re just cotton, made with solidarity and spite.) Anyway—we fixed it. Prices are now what they should’ve been from the start: fair, not exploitative, and still supporting the work we do. And to the beautiful weirdos who did buy something at the jacked-up price—yo, THANK YOU. Seriously. You helped keep this project alive, even if it was an accidental donation. We owe you a high five and probably a sticker pack. We’re not capitalists. We barely know how to run a store. But we do know how to tell stories that punch colonizers in the teeth. So if you wanna wear that on your chest, now’s the time to cop one. #WeLiveOnStolenLands #RedRoadToPalestine #DIYAF #NotAShopifyWizard #SupportRadicalMedia image
If you haven’t checked out It Could Happen Here, you should. It started as a novel about the collapse of the US and spun into a podcast that actually makes sense of the mess we’re in. The latest episode breaks down the #CharlieKirk hit and ties it to past waves of political violence, especially in Italy. Smart, heavy, worth your time.
And yeah, shit’s bad. But before you start spiraling about how “the end is near,” remember: for Black and Indigenous folks, the end of the world already happened a long fucking time ago. They’ve been living under existential threat for centuries. So yes, organize, fight back, but keep perspective—this crisis ain’t new for everyone.
I wonder how long this article about #Antifa, that positively portrays the movement, will be allowed to remain on the Smithsonian magazine's website. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/brief-history-anti-fascism-180975152/
If you need to unplug from the flaming trash heap we call reality, here’s two gems: 1. Portrait of a Lady on Fire – easily one of the most gut-punchingly beautiful films I’ve seen in forever. 2. Blackfish City – a brutal #cyberpunk novel with killer whales, polar bears, and the kind of dystopian grit that'll melt your face off. Go watch/read, thank me later.
So the alleged Charlie Kirk shooter ain’t some “radical leftist” after all. Dude’s a gun-humping Trump fan per The Canary. But too fucking late—Trump already screeched about the “destruction of the far left,” and his cult will keep running that play no matter what the facts say. Propaganda doesn’t need truth, just a target And before I forget, fuck Charlie Kirk
Canada just handed 10 years to “Dark Foreigner,” the #Atomwaffen Division’s PR goblin. Atomwaffen were a #neoNazi death cult that worshipped mass murder and tried to spark race war. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/patrick-gordon-macdonald-dark-foreigner-1.7624892
I just wrote up how I cut “George Bush Don’t Like Black People” in under 24 hrs back in ’05. No SoundCloud, no Spotify—just a TiVo full of Katrina, a smoky Canon GL2, a beat-up PowerBook, and a metric fuck-ton of rage. I synced TV corpsespeak to Legendary K.O. / K-Otix’s CC track, slapped grimy titles, exported a crusty QuickTime, and hurled it onto the Internet Archive. We embedded it on subMedia, the NYT linked it, and the site face-planted from traffic. Point is: remix isn’t a genre, it’s a weapon. When the state abandons people and corporate media gaslights, jack the feed and make your own damn video. #NOLA #Katrina #RemixCulture #CreativeCommons #subMedia #AnarchistMedia #LegendaryKO #Kanye #MediaLiteracy #DIY or #DIE
