1973年9月11日，智利军队推翻了萨尔瓦多·阿连德的社会主义政府。奥古斯托·皮诺切特将军的独裁统治在智利建立。

这些事件今天依然有很多值得反思的教训。例如，智利的历史讲述了政府更多地依赖教条而不是对现实的分析所采取的鲁莽行动（这既适用于努力建设社会主义的阿连德，也适用于皮诺切特和“芝加哥男孩”，他们的处方并不适合所有地方）。

但智利也有一些其他的东西 —— 权力的和平移交（尽管前独裁者及其同伙后来受到清算）、后独裁联合政府以及对过去的反思。

智利的经验表明，两极分化的言论通常不会产生任何效果。一个突出的例子是，左翼势力提出的新宪法在2022年的全民公决中遭到失败，之后右翼政客也参与了修宪工作。

经济学人曰："为了向前迈进，阿连德和皮诺切特必须成为历史的一部分，而不是激励和榜样的源泉”。同意这一说法。

毕竟，归根结底，这个故事与其说是关于智利的，不如说是关于 整个政治进程的。

两极分化和独裁统治的危险，对过去徒劳无益（但却激烈痛苦）的争论的泥潭，以及最终的合作和对未来妥协的希望 —— 这不只是关于智利，也是关于我们所有人的。

Happy birthday, Leon Czolgosz! (May 5, 1873) :antifa_100:

Born into a #working class Polish-American family and hailing from Detroit, Leon Czolgosz began working at a young age, taking factory jobs in the heartland of American industry. Exposed to labor #radicalism through strikes at the factories where he worked, Czolgosz began exploring socialism and eventually turned to #anarchism, although his shy and awkward nature made it difficult to form connections with other radicals, who assumed he was a police agent. He did make the acquaintance of prominent anarchist Emma #Goldman, and after learning of the assassination of King Umberto I of Italy, Czolgosz came to agree with the anarchist philosophy of “propaganda of the deed,” the use of #directaction, including the targeted killing of #political and #economic leaders, to serve as #revolutionary example and inspiration. Czolgosz put this philosophy into action on September 6, 1901, when he killed President William McKinley with a concealed pistol. He was executed for the murder, but remained steadfast and unapologetic. Contemporary reaction to Czolgosz actions among the radical left was mixed, but among the modern left he has attained the status of a veritable folk hero.

“I killed the President because he was the enemy of the good people, the good working people. I am not sorry for my crime.”

"HBDH Zekiye Alkan Militia: “We Performed Actions in 7 Points in 4 Cities!”

The fascist state, which carried out assassinations in #Rojava, attacked Zap and Avaşin in Southern #Kurdistan, and murdered freedom fighters with chemical weapons, on the other hand, never ceases its relentless attacks on #revolutionary prisoners, whom it sees as #political hostages.

The executions of the prisoners held in the dungeons for thirty years are burned and their release is prevented, and the sick prisoners on the verge of death continue to be held in the dungeons for revenge. All kinds of oppression, torture, exile and brutal isolation are escalating against the #revolutionary sons of our working #peoples.

Your streets will be on fire against every massacre you commit in Rojava, Southern Kurdistan, our mountains and our cities! On the night of August 25, we took to the streets in four different cities with this awareness. We saluted the indomitable resistance of all revolutionary prisoners in the person of the People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan, with seven different actions we carried out; We wanted to support the honorable fights of freedom fighters in the mountains and in the cities.

We Want Freedom

I was born black, I live black
And I'm a die probably because I'm black
Because some cracker that knows I'm black
Better than you nigga, is probably gonna put
A bullet in the back of my head!

Yeah our lives fucked up, no doubt
All this shit we go through every day
Sometimes a nigga don't know what the fuck to do
But see I got my niggas

And we gone organize a people army
And we gone get control over our own lives
And I mean that shit right there from the bottom of my shit
I Ching

Yeah, yeah imagine havin no runnin water to drink
Chemicals contaminate the pipes leadin to your sink
Just think, if the grocery stores close they doors
And they saturate the streets with tanks and start martial law

Would you be ready for civil war
Could you take the life of somebody you know
Or have feelings for if necessary? I got cousins in the military
But far as I'm concerned they died, when they registered

Yo, this world is oh so cold, I think about my ancestors
Being sold, and it make me wanna break the mold
Fuck the gold and the party, train yourself, clean your shottie
Tell me what you gone do to get free, we need more than MC's

We need Hueys, and revolutionaries
The niggas on the streets today, it's kinda scary
The smell around my way ain't roses or strawberries
In fact it's kinda poisonous, bringing out the boy in us

But I'ma stand up on my own, like a man do
Dominate the land and make wealth, like Fu-Manchu
Yes the peoples army stick together like glue
We represent the I-Ching and to this we stand true

Military formation, anyone participation is welcome
Each one teach one, son help son
Just one gun is all it take to get it started
Living in the wilderness of the west we cold hearted

If you don't think it could happen think again my son
Be prepared for the worst that's yet to come
We want freedom, prophecies and ancient wisdom
Cataclysm, niggas be like fuck the system

I don't wanna be no movie star, I don't wanna drive no fancy car
I just wanna be free, to live my life, to live my own life

If you don't think it could happen think again my son
Be prepared for the worst that's yet to come
We want freedom, prophecies and ancient wisdom
Cataclysm, niggas be like fuck the system

I don't wanna be no movie star, I don't wanna drive no fancy car
I just wanna be free, to live my life, to live my own life

Yeah, I'm for peace
But I'll kill ya if ya fuck with my moms or my niece
See we all want peace, but the problem is
Crackers want a bigger piece

Got it where the niggas can't get a piece
That's why police get stabbed and shot
'Cuz a nigga can't eat if the ave is hot
Locked up you get three hot meals and one cot

Then you sit and rot, never even got a fair shot
That's where a whole lotta niggas end up
My man moms even got sent up, tryin to keep the rent up
When I'm bent up I think alot about the reason I'm here

I think about the things I fear in the comin years
Ahead of me, I'm ready for whatever they bring though
I'd go against a tank wit a shank for my dreams
And that's my fuckin' word

One day the whole world will smoke herb
And niggas won't get took to jail for hangin on the curb

If you don't think it could happen think again my son
Be prepared for the worst that's yet to come
We want freedom, prophecies and ancient wisdom
Cataclysm, niggas be like fuck the system

I don't wanna be no movie star, I don't wanna drive no fancy car
I just wanna be free, to live my life, to live my own life

If you don't think it could happen think again my son
Be prepared for the worst that's yet to come
We want freedom, prophecies and ancient wisdom
Cataclysm, niggas be like fuck the system

I don't wanna be no movie star, I don't wanna drive no fancy car
I just wanna be free, to live my life, to live my own life

I don't wanna be no movie star, I don't wanna drive no fancy car
I just wanna be free, to live my life, to live my own life

If you don't think it could happen think again my son
Be prepared for the worst that's yet to come
We want freedom, prophecies and ancient wisdom
Cataclysm, niggas be like fuck the system

I don't wanna be no movie star, I don't wanna drive no fancy car
I just wanna be free, to live my life, to live my own life

Today in Labor History August 4, 1878: Ukranian revolutionary, Sergey Stepnyak Kravchinsky, assassinated General Nikolay Mezentsov in Saint Petersburg. Mezentsov was chief of the Gendarme corps and head of the country's secret police. Stepnyak was a member of the Circle of Tchaikovsky, along with Kropotkin. Their goal was the “liberation of the people.” In 1874, he joined the Balkan rising against the Turks. In 1877, he fought with anarchist Errico Malatesta in his rebellion in Benevento.

One of the things I think has been a failing of many Marxist-Leninist movements is the lack of long-term thinking.

People often talk about how ancoms and MLs agree on the ends but disagree on the means. However, if the long-term goal of MLs is the withering of the state, they rarely put effort into building the non-state structures that will eventually lead to that.

They should be building decentralized, democratic power. Embracing anarchists and building a culture of autonomy is how you develop a society where the state will wither. Many of the great successes of #socialism occurred when we worked together.

"I think now is a good time to have a bit of #revolutionary #optimism. If you are a young #person basically anywhere in the #world, there is a very real chance that you will outlive your #government. If #capitalism isn’t overthrown in the next few decades, it will almost surely collapse due to its inherently unsustainable #nature. If you ever feel like there’s no hope, just know that things will #change. Stuff will still suck because that’s what stuff does, but the #oppressive and #authoritarian #systems we have in place now can not survive the #future."

Earlier today I attended the panel on "Exploring the #borderlands. A #revolutionary #potential for #DH" at #DH2023 where half of the panel "participated" remotely. Yet, remote participation was reduced to pre-recorded videos due to technological restrictions. Remote panelists used the Whova app to "join" the discussion. Yet, the in-person audience was largely unaware of this side channel, which one can find here: https://dh2023.events.whova.com/CommunityBoard/topic/1787112

Today in Labor History July 10, 1921: Bloody Sunday: Seventeen people died and 200 houses were destroyed during rioting and gun battles in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The violence erupted the day before the beginning of a truce that was supposed to end the Irish War of Independence. As the truce approached, police launched a raid against republicans. However, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) ambushed them, killing an officer. In retaliation, Protestant loyalists attacked Catholic enclaves in west Belfast. As a result, Protestants and Catholics paramilitaries battled each other in the streets. There were also gun battles between Republicans and the police. And police also fired indiscriminately at Catholic civilians. Belfast saw almost 500 people killed from 1920–22 in political and sectarian violence related to the Irish War of Independence.

The Irish War of Independence has been portrayed in the play “The Shadow of a Gunman,” by Seán O'Casey, the 1929 novel, “The Last September,” by Elizabeth Bowen, the 1931 short story, “Guests of the Nation,” by Frank O'Connor and the more recent novels: “Troubles,” by J. G. Farrell (1970), “The Old Jest,” (1979) by Jennifer Johnston, and “The Soldier's Song,” (2010) by Alan Monaghan.

Today in Labor History July 10, 1894: The Pullman Rail Car strike was put down by 14,000 federal and state troops. Over the course of the strike, soldiers killed 70 American Railway Union (ARU) members. Eugene Debs and many others were imprisoned during the strike for violating injunctions. Debs founded the ARU in 1893. The strike began, in May, as a wildcat strike, when George Pullman laid off employees and slashed wages, while maintaining the same high rents for his company housing in the town of Pullman, as well as the excessive rates he charged for gas and water. During the strike, Debs called for a massive boycott against all trains that carried Pullman cars. While many adjacent unions opposed the boycott, including the conservative American Federation of Labor, the boycott nonetheless affected virtually all train transport west of Detroit. Debs also called for a General Strike, which Samuel Gompers and the AFL blocked. At its height, over 200,000 railway workers walked off the job, halting dozens of lines, and workers set fire buildings, boxcars and coal cars, and derailed locomotives. Clarence Darrow successfully defended Debs in court against conspiracy charges, arguing that it was the railways who met in secret and conspired against their opponents. However, they lost in their Supreme Court trial for violating a federal injunction.

By the 1950s, the town of Pullman had been incorporated into the city of Chicago. Debs became a socialist after the strike, running for president of the U.S. five times on the Socialist Party ticket, twice from prison. In 1905, he cofounded the radical IWW, along with Lucy Parsons, Mother Jones, Big Bill Haywood and Irish revolutionary James Connolly. In 1894, President Cleveland designated Labor Day a federal holiday, in order to detract from the more radical May 1st, which honored the Haymarket martyrs and the struggle for the 8-hour day. Legislation for the holiday was pushed through Congress six days after the Pullman strike ended, with the enthusiastic support of Gompers and the AFL.

Since before 2015 i have had this dream of starting a type of anarchist academy in stockholm. A school. A learner hub. A permanent place where people can find anarchism for the first time, or engage in deeper level analysis. A place where radical and anti-authoritarian pedagogy is explored and nurtured.

Over the last 6 months these ideas have once again become increasingly intrusive and I believe that this might actually be something I want to spend time and energy doing.

The first and foremost problem is that of finding those who want to be part of the pedagogic crew, the ones who would be the "teachers" but not in the traditional sense, rather the ones who can help participants create courses, lectures and structure learning. The second question is all about how other peoples projects along similar lines have gone, and what the main taleaways from those projects could be.

So, I guess this is a first attempt at asking for help. Are u an anarchist teacher? How would you do this? What are the things you see as possible downfalls? Have you already done this, and in that case where do I find your stuff?

Today in Labor History July 8, 1968: A wildcat strike began in Detroit, Michigan against both the Chrysler Corporation and the UAW. At the time, the Dodge Hamtramck plant was 70% black, while the union local was dominated by older Polish-American workers. In response, black workers formed the new Dodge Revolutionary Union Movement. The Revolutionary Union Movement quickly spread to other Detroit plants: Ford Revolutionary Union Movement at the Ford River Rouge Plant, and Eldon Avenue Revolutionary Union Movement at the Chrysler Eldon Avenue plant. They united in 1969 in the League of Revolutionary Black Workers.
