Become an Anarchist or Forever Hold Your Peace crimethinc.com/becomeananar... Neither courts nor laws will suffice to halt the descent into autocracy. Massive numbers of people will have to take direct action on their own initiative, on a decentralized basis—in other words, to become anarchists. 🏴

Capitalism is organized crime. "The real gangsters don’t have to get their hands dirty—they have police and courts and prisons to do their dirty work for them. They don’t have to run drugs or guns or illegal gambling rings—they run everything else." crimethinc.com/posters/capi... 🧵⬇️

"One of the chief deciding factors in what scale of social change we will see in our lifetimes will be determined by whether people like you invest your time, creativity, and resources in changing the world rather than in merely attempting to improve your personal situation on an individual basis."

"In this society, nearly all power is distributed according to the imperative to turn a profit. And since the essence of profit is the concentrating of wealth in fewer hands, it should be no surprise that the disparities in our society are intensifying so rapidly." crimethinc.com/antiwork

In the not-too-distant past, before everyone became so reliant on the internet, we mass-produced print versions of everything we published. Here, you see some of the stock of issue 4 of our paper, Harbinger, and its centerfold. We distributed 50,000 of them in 2001. crimethinc.com/journals/har...

In den USA wird gerade im ganzen Land vor Tesla-Läden gegen den Faschismus protestiert.🔥 Zum 1. März wird dazu aufgerufen vor sämtlichen Tesla-Standorten im Land zu protestieren. Den Aufruf dazu und ein Poster gibt's hier: de.crimethinc.com/posters/depo... Auch in Deutschland hat Tesla Standorte.

Should we count on the laws to protect us from Trump? Staking the defense against the oligarchs on the principle that "no one is above the law" has failed for eight years now. Worse, with Trump back in control of the government, it's a self-defeating narrative. Permit us to make the case. 🧵⬇️

For Presidents Day, rather than celebrating George Washington, we invite you to learn about how the people that he enslaved or indentured sought to escape from captivity, and about the Native Americans who defended themselves against his attacks. A real fight for freedom. crimethinc.com/Washington

"Picture a self-education society without instructors, ranks, or lesson plans in which learning is not a distinct sphere of activity, but an organic component of every aspect of the community." -Punk—Dangerous Utopia: Revisiting the Relationship between Punk and Anarchism crimethinc.com/PunkUtopia

Those who imagine it is possible to wait out the Trump administration are naïve. Trump seeks autocratic power. He won't be satisfied with minor concessions. He will take everything he can. Learn a lesson from anarchist organizing. The first compromise is the last one. crimethinc.com/eightsteps

As people around the country protest against Donald Trump and Elon Musk, remember—the real problem is not the greed and megalomania of a few billionaires, but the political and economic structures that systematically concentrate power in their hands at our expense. In other words—capitalism.

If you're being forced out of the military on account of your gender as a result of Trump's return to power, we invite you to enlist in the real struggle for freedom. This is more honorable than fighting on behalf of those who hate you—and it's a fight that we cannot avoid. crimethinc.com/transban2

We spoke with @miawong.bsky.social from @coolzonemedia.bsky.social and @crimethinc.com about need for people to push back and defend each other. We also spoke with organizers in #Olympia and #NorthCarolina about the recent 'Festivals of Resistance.' thebeautifulidea.show/resistance-f...

Tomorrow, people around the country will mobilize at Tesla dealerships. If no action is planned near you, you can still go to a Tesla outlet and express your feelings. Here's a flier to distribute explaining the need for these actions and calling for more March 1: crimethinc.com/posters/depo...

Love is a quality of attention, a sensitivity to the world and everything that is possible in it. When we fight on the basis of what we love, rather than in service of ideology or cowardice, we open ourselves to serve as a channel through which everything beautiful in the world can defend itself. 🧵
