Important new article on responding to March for Australia. #AntiFascist redblacknotes.com/2025/09/03/mar…

Important article on @redblacknotes imo "Where did the success of March for Australia come from? What does the far right look like in Australia today, and how does it mobilise? And most importantly, how should we prepare to confront them in the future?" redblacknotes.com/2025/09/03/mar…

New on @redblacknotes: Sam Murray asks ‘How much is the planet likely to warm this century?’ “…as the worst cases have improved, the best cases have deteriorated… We are fucked, but we can still fight over how fucked.” redblacknotes.com/2025/05/26/how…

New on @redblacknotes — @correnterosso tackles the Greens militarism, and the failure of socialist organisations in Australia to “address the fundamental political questions of how revolutionaries should relate to the capitalist state” & ‘defence’ policy. redblacknotes.com/2025/04/18/an-…

New on @redblacknotes: Why do anarchists object to electoral projects - even when run by self-described revolutionaries, like those in Victorian Socialists? And what is our alternative? redblacknotes.com/2025/04/09/why…

Spannende Kritik am Programm der US-amerikanischen Genoss:innen ⤵️

@basicflannel We're keen to publish responses :)

Its positive interest in 'organised' anarchism is growing, though I have my own misgivings about aspects of 'especifismo'. In the meantime I pretty much endorse all of Dan's comments (with some reservations re the Malatesta part - the critique of Italian ancom is good, however).

A good critique of some fuzzy analysis, particularly around class, which has crept into the work of those who identify with the label especifist. I think it stems from wanting to avoid anything that could be interpreted as ‘Marxism’. Disagree with Dan’s take on Malatesta though!

Popular power or class power? Daniel Rashid critiques @BRRN_Fed 's programme, Turning the Tide. redblacknotes.com/2025/02/13/pop…

Geelong Anarchist Communists remain committed to spreading anarchist ideas and fighting for socialism.  While Warrnambool City Council attempted to suppress political discussion, it only highlighted the importance of developing radical politics in regional Australia.
