Some folks initiate a dance party

"To say that plainly: so long as we can’t do without nuclear power plants and dismantling them remains a business for people who want them to last forever, aspiring to abolish the state will continue to draw smiles; so long as the prospect of a popular uprising will signify a guaranteed fall into scarcity, of health care, food, or energy, there will be no strong mass movement. In other words: we need to resume a meticulous effort of investigation. We need to go look in every sector, in all the territories we inhabit, for those who possess strategic technical knowledge. Only on this basis will movements truly dare to “block everything.” Only on this basis will the passion for experimenting towards another life be liberated, a largely technical passion that is the obverse, as it were, of everyone’s state of technical dependence. This process of knowledge accumulation, of establishing collusions in every domain, is a prerequisite for a serious and massive return of the revolutionary question."

as for general thinking about shutting shit down, zines like this are good: https://ruinsofcapital.noblogs.org/files/2015/07/PowerIsLogisticIMP.pdf

there's a chestnut about attacking your enemies' plans instead of your enemy. we don't want to harm fascists, we want to disrupt their political project. so that requires thinking about what they're trying to do, and move perpendicular to that. don't let them set the terms of the struggle, let's decide for ourselves what we want, and make the struggle far too big and diverse and creative for aggressive fash to handle

Yes, this all feels so vital and like the next steps. Really love the piece about attacking enemies plans rather than the actual enemies. "we don't want to harm fascists, we want to disrupt their political project" <— thank you @lithiumroses! Street fights feel like a clever diversion & waste of our brilliance right now and stunting for the movement as a whole.

Pre-clearance of sites and site security needs to be added to our security culture as a movement. We already have more heart than the right, and more familiarity with being a group instead of Rambo wannabe lone wolves. We do mutual aid better, we do self care and introspection better. Now it's time to tune up our security culture and start talking about defined guard units in armor and prepared to deescalate violence. It's time to start talking comms and establishing people at height watching over the crowds for threats.

We. Protect. Us.

We have to work with the community and public we got, they ARE swayable, and edm is just more palatable to a lot of people. Once we get them in we can radicalize and educate them. I roll my eyes when anyone bitches about property damage, but I'll also draw them in with visuals like edm getting gassed for a candelight vigil before then educating them on how lives are more important than property and the history of riots (stonewall, civil rights, boston tea party) - I have found this effective. Some people are just too brainwashed by capatlism to start with spicier methods... But we can get them there
