Nice! I hope the increased targeting of 3D printed gun manuals is discussed at some point.

Some exciting news: 404 Media just won a grant via Muckrock to investigate book bans and educational censorship in the U.S. The plan is to file hundreds of public records requests around the country and to report on and archive all the documents for public use:

You said a trans anarchist was being funded by Putin and Thiel, you're more similar than you would like to admit.

Stephen Miller and the Trump regime are deliberately provoking violence in American cities so they can blame it on a vast terrorist conspiracy of “Antifa” and “radical left Democrats.”

The plan is clear—but is it a “false flag” if they tell you?

Is It a “False Flag” If They Tell You?

Historically, people who want to overthrow a government usually try to hide it.

100%. Cars backfiring, fireworks, construction. It's total bullshit to justify more money to police and more surveillance.

This shit doesn’t get any better. Ever since the first time they tried it, it just keeps on flagging drum lines and marching bands and shit like that as gunfire. Fucking useless and creepy and weird even if it did work. There are enough people that will call the police if they hear actual gunfire.

as a kid growing up right-wing i regularly heard people express their desire for "a government so small I can drown it in the bathtub". imagine my surprise growing up to realize i was the only one who actually believed that.

it's so funny to see right wing media claim these are the guys ISIS nicknamed "the Crusaders" as if the bulk of the killing in that war wasn't a mix of Iraqis from Baghdad, Kurds from northern Iraq and Syria, and shitloads of airstrikes.

Today marks the two-year anniversary of the horrific October 7 attack.

As we mourn the 1,218 lives lost that day, let us also keep alive the dream of a lasting peace and a better future for all.

Ceasefire now. Every hostage must come home. And a safer world for everyone.
