Against the Behemoth

From Autonomies

The scandal that is Donald Trump’s administration – from the gutting and/or paralysing of federal government agencies, justified in the name of eliminating and controlling government waste of public monies due to indulgent, corrupt government workers and government policies, to budget plans for rampant privatisation and parallel tax benefits for the private companies that will substitute for government agencies, to an ideological war against the already modest US “welfare state”, to mass racist deportations, to a foreign policy driven by a logic of “strong men” competing for spheres of influence irrespective of the resulting human sacrifices – is shocking only to liberal sensibilities enamoured of the rule of law.

Original title: Open letter from Return Fire magazine to the 2024.03.29-31 International Anti-Prison / Anti-Repression Gathering

We welcome this initiative, and send our love and gratitude to all gathering in Brighton with the aim of together building a more durable and combative struggle against the authoritarian nightmare of the present-day. From the limits of our own capacity, we’d like to offer some thoughts; reflections that have been born from decades of shared struggle and over 10 years of publishing our magazines with a strong presence of anti-repression/anti-prison documentation and agitation.

From Il Dubbio

If the path were really to pass off Cóspito as 'crazy' in order to impose medical treatment on him that he has said several times that he wants to refuse, and if the State accepted this perspective, it would mean violating the only space of freedom that Cóspito has left, it is say, his habeas corpus. It would be true state violence.

You bet we’ll remember, and how!

We’ve heard it all. The prime minister Giorgia Meloni, with her usual victimhood, went so far as to suspect conspiracies about the coincidence of the start of the hunger strike with the launching of her government.
