This is a great blog post which I agree deeply with! In fact, it was one of the guiding principles in the micro games we put in the Griot Anthology: games rooted in Black experience, not Black pain and trauma.

If you’re taking Covid precautions and got sick, please don’t feel guilty You made the effort. That’s more than most are doing. It’s harder to protect yourself when everyone else is practicing “you do you” eugenics. Masking means transmission stopped with you. You protected others. That’s a win.

We are seeing this in Portland right now as well. As socialists get into government and demonstrate pragmatic approaches to expanding public amenities and a social safety net in the capitalist economy we live in, detractors start glitching. They won't just say "we don't want these things."

Too many of the people cluelessly calling for an immediate "General Strike" can't even seem to hold themselves to boycotting Target and Chick-Fil-A. Come on, now. Organize and drive those company's stocks down, traffic down, profits down, and THEN we can talk about a more "General" strike. Yeesh.

Portland knows how to party in the face of fascism. Here’s Brassless Chaps playing a fun version of “Killing in the Name of” at Punk Rock Pride on SE Foster. People gathered all up and down the street.

They are actively arresting peaceful protesters for wearing medical masks at the protests. Now if you are wondering how police are treating nonviolent protesters. Have a feeling this is going to turn into a thread of actions today

"...for protests to succeed, they must be backed by movements with the ability to promise to withhold—labor, debt payments, rent payments, or consumer support—and to follow through if demands aren’t met." Glad to have gotten the opportunity to push this line in Time time.com/collections/...

Everyone saw Grand Park's hot pink benches being stacked into a barricade on Sunday. What an exceptional statement from RIOS, the benches' designers instagram.com/rios.imagines "These pieces were designed to move, adapt, welcome, connect — and now protect"

Funny how there’s always more outrage in the media when a shop window gets broken than when people get kidnapped & sent to a gulag.

how to use civility to stop the borg

submitted 98 days ago • 31 comments

I'ma tell you all what I tell my clients. You feel bad because it is bad. You are unmotivated to go to work because the world is on fire & the government is sending people to kidnap children and adults & maiming people who try to stop them. You are having a normal reaction to obscene circumstances.

“Trump is using military forces to stop a protest — I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us.” Doechii at the #BETAwards

The idea that protesters in LA shouldn’t give him a pretext for violence presupposes that he needs or cares about a pretext. If you protesters stay home, then he’s going to keep kidnapping people and use the lack of protests as proof that everyone agrees with him.

There's a lot to be said about the protests against ICE, but one thing I really want to say is thank you to the people protesting. You have saved people from being kidnapped. You have kept families together. You may never know how far reaching your actions are, but know that much.

The crew of the Madleen deserves all of our love and solidarity. They knew they were on a dangerous path, but also understood the necessity of trying. The siege of Gaza must end, aid must be delivered, and the crew of the Madleen must be freed.
