Cracking Screens: A Scam App Primer
While we look for ways to mitigate the way technology mediates our lives, we also ought to find ways to hijack tech to get free shit and carry out new experiments in autonomy.

If we are slaves of technology, this is precisely because there is a whole ensemble of artifacts of our everyday existence that we take to be specifically “technical” and that we will always regard simply as black boxes of which we are the innocent user. […] Understanding how the devices around us work brings an immediate increase in power, giving us a purchase on what will then no longer appear as an environment, but as a world arranged in a certain way and one that we can shape.

In light of failed the /pol/ attempt to instigate a trucker strike in support of Donald Trump and the very real Teamster strike underway in New York let’s take a moment to explore some potentialities here.
While the social aspect of struggles shouldn’t be ignored and is often a core feature of their power there is a power in blocking important logistical choke points for ‘the economy.’ There’s a reason miners’ struggle were some of the most impactful, they sat atop a critical energy source and exerted leverage over it. It is also not an accident that some of most currently militant and powerful unions like the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the longshoremen’s ILWU.
We can also look to the airport shutdowns that fought Trump’s muslim ban as an example of logistics-aware struggle that flexed its power. We can also see this in the train-track blockades that swept Canada in defense of tribal sovereignty and against devastating resource extraction. There’s also the example of highway blockades that have used logistics disruption to bring attention to BLM and police brutal struggles. All these methods have effectively targeted logistics to achieve their aims.
Just something to mull over in the coming days.

Nice introductory essay on libertarian municipalism and finding political empowerment through building directly democratic institutions in our communities. Send it to your mom or your uncle or your Q-Anoner cousin:
Why libertarian municipalism is more needed today than ever before:To fight fascism and climate change, the left must rebuild political life

Help us kick Bezos in the dick - Boss Baby Bezos is at it again!
Amazon opened a union busting website for people to report workers unions.
So lets do the world a favor and waste Jeff´s time, money and live energy (i hope) by spamming his website with bogus reports.
Eat shit, Jeff.

"It is only after a community affirms that they themselves belong to a specific territory, to this forest, to this river, to this neighborhood, and that they are ready to fight for it, that the possibility of a political ecology becomes clear. To make ecology truly political, we must ask the following question: what makes it possible for this or that community to live a fulfilling life, to increase its happiness?"

Not a rose, and don’t really gaf about trading. But saying “if u like WSB, wait till u hear about General Strikes” is tone deaf:
People are demonstrating in real time how wild and innovative they are, weaponizing apparatuses used to keep us dumb & segregated like social media, and the tools used to keep us poor, like the stonks. This is why $gme / wsb is awesome.
If you wanna go further say: collectively invest, hold the line, then flip the stocks when the squeeze is squoze and invest in breaking out of a dying civilization: collectively work through what that would be for your territory, rinse, repeat.

The problem isn’t planting trees. It’s technocratic #climatesolutions, intended to maintain the economy & our divide from nature. We need bottom-up agroecology, building soil, restoring worlds & feeding all kinds of beings.

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."
