It’s obvious why law and order, time and again, is a boon to the right. The Republican celebration of Penny as a kind of Kyle Rittenhouse of the Big Apple has made that clear. nplusonemag.com/online-only/on…

“To list out the thousand methods and ways of sabotage would be an endless rosary,” Émile Pouget wrote in 1898. Reflections on sabotage from @LizzieBordenLA, Darius James, James N Kienitz Wilkins, RH Lossin, @MedinaMora, @graysontscott, & Shanzhai Lyric: canopycanopycanopy.com/contents/schem…

On Saturday, November 2 at 3pm I’ll be on a panel as part of @Triple_Canopy’s 2024 Symposium. The panel is for the 80th Anniversary of the publication of Horkheimer & Adorno’s DIALECTIC OF ENLIGHTENMENT. *The whole world is passed through the filter of the culture industry.*

Thanks to @nplusonemag for republishing our note on the student movement. “Palestine has compelled a new generation to come face to face with the urgent, essential paradoxes of building an anti-imperial politics within the belly of the imperial beast.” nplusonemag.com/online-only/on…
