Why Trump’s 2025 USA Is Not Fascist: An Anarcho-Communist Analysis

From The Polar Bl@st

In 2025, as Donald Trump re-enters the White House, a familiar discourse reignites across left-leaning and liberal spaces: “Trump is a fascist.” For many, especially in the mainstream, it’s an emotionally satisfying shorthand for what they experience as authoritarian, cruel, and dangerous leadership. And to be fair, much of what the Trump regime has done—both in the past and now in its return—has been undeniably authoritarian and reactionary.

“Should Anarchists Vote?” is the Wrong Question

by Wayne Price

As I write this, we are moving ever closer to U.S. Election Day November 2024. (Although if this is read after that election, the issues discussed should still be relevant.) The small number of people who regard themselves as anarchists are discussing whether to vote. From Michael Bakunin and Peter Kropotkin in the late 19th century onward, revolutionary anarchists have rejected participation in elections.

Anarchists Confront Far-Right and TERF Coalition in DC

We were about 25-30 people deep that day, armed only with whistles, pots and pans, tranarchy flags, protest signs and one (surprisingly loud) bullhorn. The transphobic coalition that converged on June 23rd , ostensibly for the 50th anniversary of Title IX, was a mix of far-Right wing christofascists and TERFs. The groups involved were Independent Women’s Voice, WoLF (Women’s Liberation Front), WDI USA, Concerned Women For America, Independent Women’s Network, Independent Women’s Law Center, Family Research Council, Save Women’s Sports, Alliance Defending Freedom, The Heritage Foundation, Young Women For America, and the Independent Women’s Forum.

War diary from Ukraine [Part 1]: Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

via Enough14

Comrades from the Enough 14 and Cars of Hope collectives were in Ukraine. Here are some first impressions by Riot Turtle.

Much is happening under the radar here, partly because although the Kremlin narrative about “denazification” is bullshit, there are very real problems with fascists. Anarchist comrades are also not appreciated by the Ukrainian state. The cooperation between cops and fascists is sometimes similar to the situation in Germany. They are well connected with each other.

Review: The Anarchist-Individualist Origins of Italian Fascism

In 1910 Luigi Fabbri and Armando Borghi abducted an anarchist woman who had shamed their friend by divorcing him. Together, they forced her into a gynecological exam so the doctor could publicly pronounce her deformed and incapable of sex.

The Latest Witch Hunt

from Scarlet Imprint by Peter Grey

Social media is designed to manufacture the three cons: conflict, conformity and consumption. The sheer level of toxicity has led the silent majority to abandon platforms such as Twitter and Facebook, leaving them largely to the purveyors of outrage who align most perfectly with the three cons.

The requirement for conformity has produced an absolutely chilling effect on free speech and the imposition of a rigid binary. That kind of black and white thinking is anathema to the practice of magic and witchcraft. It is the new puritanism, to which I reply non serviam.
