Very potent and inspiring text from Marcello Tarì, newly-translated. Crucial meditations on autonomy, destitution, fragmentation, and the commune. Drink up, it feels like a sorely-missed hug 🧡

"Either communism is among us, within us and through us, or it is nothing. It’s like love which, it seems to me, shares many things with communism: we miss it although it is always there, we hear it beating in the depths but we can’t grasp it. And even buried under millions and millions of bits, pixels, lies and pain, betrayals and tears, we still hear it."

Our goal with this project is similar to the goal stated by folk singer Pete Seeger; to scatter some seeds around as we walk in hopes that some might grow.

Building autonomy on a regional level is the opposite of the Texas grid and ERCOT — it means bottom-up power and justice and a profusion of neighborhood-level projects like in Southern Illinois.

"We can no longer assume revolution within the world of endless progress. Revolution today is more a metamorphosis: individual bodies + social relations along with the other struggles. What's the new form of happiness? The nature of our relation to the planetary body" -Sabu Kohso

“The model of revolution as a kind of internationalism, as a kind of totalizing expansive entity of the world: if this is the world, the only way is to decompose it, to fragment it. The vision of changing something, of changing reality: rather than making the whole thing better, it is first necessary to fragment it." - Sabu Kohso
