Daily reminder that the American petrocrescent in the Gulf South is home to numerous Black and poor communities that suffer the horrific cost of feeding the world’s energy demands. Endless wars, esp in the Arabian Gulf, only raises the stakes for them. scalawagmagazine.org/2025/10/toxic-…

Federal terrorism convictions based on zines, wearing bloc, using Signal, attending a noise demo, amorphous "antifa" bogeyman. This is catastrophically bad. Beyond canary in the coal mine—this is paving the way for a new front of fascistic lawfare. archive.li/YXlkv
