This article by Elio Henríquez originally appeared in the September 29, 2025 edition of La Jornada, Mexico’s premier left wing daily newspaper.

San Cristóbal de las Casas. The Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) released images of vehicles belonging to the Mexican Army, the Chiapas Attorney General’s Office, and state and municipal police from Ocosingo “at the service of Huixtán landowners,” who recently seized a “recovered” piece of land from Zapatista bases.

In a two-and-a-half-minute video released Monday night on the official Enlace Zapatista website, titled “Images for the Farmers’ Morning Conference,” footage of Ocosingo municipal police trucks patrolling near the property was first revealed.

Images then appear of a convoy of five units from the prosecutor’s office and the state police. Two trucks carrying Mexican Army personnel are then seen.

Once all the vehicles have passed, the sign reads: “Serving the farmers of Huixtán. Result?” Immediately afterward, a sign appears next to the wire fence of the property reading: “Private property. Huixtán joint ownership. No entry.”

The Assembly of Collectives of Zapatista Autonomous Governments and the Common Governments denounced on Sunday that, with the support of members of the Federal Army, the Ocosingo police, and the State Attorney General’s Office, residents of Huixtán “burned and destroyed houses” belonging to EZLN support bases and took over a property in the town of Belén, Caracol 8, Dolores Hidalgo.

Books, pamphlets, manifestos, you name it/whatever. Please just leave out terminally online "bread"tubers, thank you.

Ideally from a few reputable Anarchist to get a better picture. The literature doesn't have to be exclusively about authority, but should mention it in relative detail.

Edit: Since I rightfully got called out on the following sentence in another thread as being demeaning of online educators work

Please just leave out terminally online "bread"tubers, thank you.

I should maybe clarify that I meant people like Contrapoints who have delightfully little to do with any kind of leftistm, let alone Anarchism

Georgia prosecutors are facing what one expert called “probably the highest-profile failure of using conspiracy charges to indict a protest movement” in US history, after a two-year attempt to prosecute a criminal conspiracy in connection with opposition to the police training center known as Cop City.

Fulton county superior court Judge Kevin Farmer announced his decision to dismiss charges against the case’s 61 defendants during hearings this week on a handful of defense attorney motions.

After an hour-plus of discussion in this week’s hearing, Farmer came back from a break and used only 18 words to stymie the state’s prosecution, nearly three years after arrests: “At this time I do not find the attorney general had the authority to bring this Rico case.”

So, I've been toying with this idea of applying the anarchist concept of means ends unity to art (to be honest, mainly as a theoretical justification for doing what I wanted to do anyway). So, if you want to do art, and especially anarchist art, shouldn't your tools also be artistic and preferably anarchist?

I'll give an example. Poetry is art. Tools of poetry include things like language and font. Constructed languages can be seen as art projects, and they can implement and emphasize the values of anarchism. Fonts are also art projects and they can for example be inspired by anarchism and be freely distributed etc.

Other examples could include making specific image manipulation programs and algorithms and creating new image formats for visual arts, making esoteric programming languages for programs etc.

So, my idea is starting an avantgarde group/movement where we make art with artistic DIY tools and document the process in the art itself so that it doesn't hide its structure but shows how it was made.

Attached is the first poem I made specifically with this project in mind. But of course, not everything we produce as a group needs to resemble these little examples I came up with. The main thing is to try to break the expectations of art (if such a thing is possible anymore) and also to be an anarchist.

If any of this inspires you, hit me up. Perhaps we can start the group together.

This week, we’re sharing an interview with Heatscore and Nuke of sub.Media about their new documentary series, InterRebellium. The first episode, entitled El Estallido Social about the social uprising that flared up in 2019 in lands controlled by the state of Chile featuring anarchist and Mapuche voices on the conditions in which the uprising developed, experiences of it and its aftermath. You can view the film for free at sub.Media/InterRebellium alongside materials for discussion. We also speak about the role of film and media production in radical organizing and critique and upcoming episodes of the series.

Back in 1973, Rene Vienet, a member of the Situationist International, detourned an entire kung fu film, making “Can Dialectics Break Bricks?” Worth a watch if you have the time.

Wealth above, and death below: in recent history this arrangement has proven to be remarkably tolerable. Everyone of course is aware that ever more people are immiserated and discarded, that ever more of the Earth is destroyed. But for the better off, the very worst is kept at a very comfortable distance, and life more or less maintains its rhythms.

I love how seamlessly rural ties into, well, to quote the tagline of Foghorn Mag, the marginal life. I love how building bookshelves and plotting an outdoor kitchen for gatherings feels like a logical extension of when I used to couchsurf and hitchhike full-time.

Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, un antifascista checo y un partisano yugoslavo se encontraron en una playa del Adriático.

Al final, surgió la pregunta inevitable. «¿Qué hiciste en la guerra?», le preguntó el antifascista checo al partisano.

Emma Goldman (1869 - 1940)

Sun Jun 27, 1869

Emma Goldman, born on this day in 1869, was an anarchist writer and activist in the United States whose works, including "My Disillusionment in Russia" and her journal Mother Earth, influenced anarchist movements all over the world.

Attracted to anarchism after the Haymarket affair, Goldman became a renowned writer and lecturer. She and anarchist writer Alexander Berkman, her lover and lifelong friend, planned to assassinate industrialist and financier Henry Clay Frick as an act of "propaganda of the deed".

Frick survived the attempt on his life, and Berkman was sentenced to 22 years in prison. Goldman was imprisoned several times in the years that followed for "inciting to riot" and illegally distributing information about birth control.

After their release from prison, Goldman and Berkman were again arrested and deported to Russia. Initially supportive of the October Revolution that brought the Bolsheviks to power, Goldman changed her opinion in the wake of the Kronstadt rebellion, denouncing the Soviet Union for its repression of political dissent. She left the Soviet Union and, in 1923, published a book about her experiences, "My Disillusionment in Russia".

Goldman was an extremely well-known anarchist in her lifetime, with a reputation as a powerful orator. Her writing and lectures spanned a wide variety of issues, including prisons, atheism, freedom of speech, militarism, capitalism, free love, and homosexuality.

"If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution."

- Emma Goldman

I love Rudolf Rocker and his views on authoritarianism, and felt the urge to make something simple like this new flag! Feel free to download and/or use it for whatever. I made them with GIMP!

The Norwegian Syndicalist Federation is an anarcho-syndicalist group in Norway.

Established in the 1910s, the NSF worked within existing Norwegian trade unions in order to radicalise them towards revolutionary syndicalism.

// using anglish https://wordbook.anglish.org/

// using my own words, look at wordbook below

I'm very gleeded by the tongue. It shapes how we view our world. It chooses how we frame everything from the everyday to the All That Is.

As an withermighter (or anarchist if you will), this makes fullstanding sense to me, but it seems like this samspeech is barely touched by anarchists.

Let's not misunderstand, I am not saying the tongue is more weighty than other forthgangs. We need to dream, to do deeds, to wither might, and to folkweight.

But we are not going to make a change, to loken Gaja, if we are using the tongue of our fiends. Because this is what has happened with our tongues over the thousands of years of might.

Might has shaped our tongues so that we don't think clearly. We think of the industrial machine as the Tree of the Machine that can - and has to - grow unendingly to provide for an unendingly greatening folkrime. We speak of the mighty as newthinkers, jobmakers, mankindloving, dreamers, investors and wise. When the Tree of the Machine begrips freeland, it is seen as a loke for the holy tree.

Herethrough when we use a word, we strengthen the framework of that word. For deem, the word civilization was made in the aroundings of trying to overlingen overgrippers. To make it seem like the overgrippers are rightwised to step on others. To miscare for the mansworth of those being stepped upon.

We need to feel our words and bespeak whether they help us, or misguides us. Are our words meltful? Do they match their retching and metings? Does the word meting match with how our world works?

By greatening meltfulness, our thanks will spread more easily. By having our metings match our retching, we will understand our words. By matching our words with the world, our thanks will guide us unto a good path.

wordbook:

• folkrime :: The muchness of a folk.
• tind :: Something that glows a force of life.
• meting :: The weight of a word, for deem the word horse is weighted with all our undergoings with that which we have been told is a horse. overgrippers :: When somebody wield over a folk without their thave.
• overlingen :: To make somebody seem better than others.
• retching :: The meaning of a word.
• samspeech :: Speaking together.
• thank :: To think, but in the past.
• thave: When two players agree upon something.
• tongue :: The forthgang of how folks speak with eachother.
• freeland :: Where the deers roam, the fishes swim, the trees dances in the wind, the bumblebees taste uncountful amounts of flowers.
• withermighter :: Somebody who stands against might, since all might is bad. --
