𝙃𝙤𝙢𝙤 𝙚𝙭 𝙈𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙖, CoFestival Ljubljana, 28 Nov
A metal mouse trap is placed on a shelf in front of a row of books. Inside the trap is a miniature green potted plant and a small keyboard arranged neatly on a reflective metal base. White text in the upper left corner reads "Mariborka 26|11 – 04|12|2025." The composition appears precise and slightly ironic. A white exhibition wall displays several framed artworks containing various electronic components such as circuit boards, processors, and mechanical parts. The frames are arranged in an irregular pattern. Black text in the upper left corner reads "nGbK Berlin 28|11|25 – 15|02|26." The scene has a clean, modern aesthetic. Two humanoid robots with mechanical backs walk hand in hand into a red-tinted sea under a soft pink sky with two suns on the horizon. The image is heavily color-graded in red. In the upper part, bold red text reads "CoFestival Ljubljana Kino Šiška 28|11|2025." The mood is surreal and cinematic. The image is split into two parts. The top half shows a man with a short beard and serious expression standing in front of a brick wall. The text "nGbK Berlin 11|12|25" appears beside him. The bottom half shows another man wearing round turquoise goggles, a black gas mask, and a black helmet with antennas, standing against a plain white wall.

Resistance is not a single action but a flurry of actions.

Create:
Voting blocs
Protest blocs
Legal blocs
Mutual aid blocs
Medical blocs
Education blocs
Self defense blocs
Social media defense blocs

Every action counts if taken in the same direction. #3E

You can’t vote your way out of regressive fascism, that said voting is not useless. It’s a twist on a tourniquet, it helps tighten the wound so the body doesn’t die, however it won’t permanently stop the bleeding on its own. Every action counts and all put together you’ve got a shot at victory. #3E
