Great read on lessons learned in #Poland about how to resist authoritarian regimes.

theguardian.com/commentisfree/

The fight continues and will not end until everyone is free and equal. Sometimes we may be losing ground, but that ground can be won back and then some. It may feel hopeless sometimes but we must find what hope we can and continue for the sake of ourselves, our children, and those around us.

On why allying with a liberal capitalist establishment in the throes of free market fundamentalist ideology, isn't a viable long term answer for a labor class tired of authoritarian police states and living on a boiling rock.

Theory Blog: There’s No Going Back to “Normal”

ninaillingworth.com/2025/03/13

"Whether you want to acknowledge it or not, the bipartisan fascist police state that protects oligarchs and projects corporate power is the same fascist police state Trump is using to protect and install a fascist political order. The same racism, marginalization, and callous indifference to human life required to make capitalist extraction possible, is fueling popular support behind the rise of de facto fascist political parties all over the Pig Empire. The same national security state created to fight an endless “war on terror” is now being used to hunt down and silence opposition to Trump’s fascist agenda. The chickens have come home to roost and an unholy union of capitalism, imperialism, and hierarchal class warfare that is all completely “normal” in our society, has given birth to the very same fascist monsters that threaten to destroy everything labor class people care about today."

Nina Illingworth Dot Com | "When the revolution is for everyone, everyone will be for the revolution" · Theory Blog: There’s No Going Back to “Normal” | on NIDCThere is no way to defeat fascism that doesn't involve repudiating the free market fundamentalist order that built the police state he's using against us now.

In 1981, 12 young men in Bradford were arrested by a racist police force for preparing to defend their community from fascists. 4 decades on, I spoke to them about their trial and the solidarity that helped secure their freedom. The Bradford 12 case was a pivotal moment in British legal history.

Speaking to Tribune, they recall the solidarity that helped secure their freedom, and the ongoing urgency of resistance.

Today in Labor History April 26, 1937: The Nazis and Italian fascists bombed Guernica, a town in the Basque region of Spain, at the request of Spanish fascist leader, Francisco Franco. Later that year, Picasso painted his famous painting, Guernica, in protest of the atrocity. This was during the Spanish Civil War. The Republicans, a coalition of anarchist, socialist and communist partisans, were fighting the Nationalists, led by Franco. They bombed Guernica for two hours, killing between 1,000 and 3,000 civilians, or 20-60% of the population.
