  1. Here's the latest from my ongoing translation of Rudolf Rocker's memoirs. I missed the past two weeks because I've been pretty overwhelmed with other work, which seems reasonable enough, but I really hate to say I'm going to do something (e.g., post weekly updates) and then not do it. So my apologies to anyone who's actually keeping up with this.

    At any rate, this one deals with adolescent Rudolf and his earliest forays into socialist literature in his beloved uncle's apartment in Mainz. This is a short excerpt, but it says some things about the value of a culture that can foster a political imagination and pass on political ideas and experiences from one generation to the next. Both of these functions are often sorely lacking in our current moment (the latter in particular, given the enduring state of inter-generational rancor).

    At any rate, enjoy it. As I've said before, this is a draft and may be edited before publication of the actual book (parts may even be deleted altogether). I should be back on schedule next week.

  2. After years of delays, I am once and for all plowing through what I think will be an fairly important and meaningful project: translating Rudolf Rocker's memoirs for @pmpress.

    For the uninitiated, Rocker (1873–1958) was a labor organizer, orator, and leading early theorist of anarcho-syndicalism. His contribution to both anarchism and labor organizing was tremendous, yet the only substantive text about his life that is available in English is The London Years, which is an excellent book, but it only covers a relatively brief period of his life. The project I'm working on will fill in a lot more details about his commitment to the social democrats in his youth (at a time when social democracy was illegal in Germany), his disillusionment with party politics, his discovery of anarchism, and his repeated flight from various countries in Western Europe, among other things.

    The full manuscript clocks in at some 2,000+ typewritten pages, so I am studiously reading the whole thing and editing it in the hope of producing a book that will be somewhere between 300-500 pages. So far, I've gotten through about the first 300 pages, or ~15% of the total.

    I plan on posting draft excerpts on Medium no less than once a week to keep people up to speed on the progress I'm making, to keep myself accountable, and to hopefully generate some interest in what I think will be a valuable and meaningful text. The first installment is at the link below.

    However, this project is a ton of work, so if you've got a few ducats lying around and you don't know what to do with them, I'd be grateful if you would kick in a small donation at the link below.

    Please pass it on! More soon...

  4. @ptrkdbrwsk A u nas na wiosce takie harce: #Rudowoj wchodzi tam, gdzie mu nie wolno. A #Szaromysł poza kadrem - pewnie łatwo sobie wyobrazić, jak wygląda. 😉

    "Die Politsekte des Genderismus, ist angetreten, das Individuum von der Identifikation mit seinen biologischen Geschlechtseigenschaften – also seiner Rassifizierung – zu befreien." (Lorenzo Ravagli, Redakteur #Waldorfschule, '#Erziehungskunst')

  11. @Rudolf_Muehland @RoterClaus @pallenberg

    Es ist einfach nur die Wiedergabe von schon veröffentlichten Schriften. Ich wollte bisher viel zu wenig über direkte Demokratie direkte Mitwirkung und auch nur verschlüsselt als #subsidiaritätsprinzip über die Entscheidungen vor Ort gesprochen.

    Daraus entstand die demokratie-möglichkeit und der Glaube an die Obrigkeit die #CSU nutzt die schamlos aus. obrigkeitsstaatliches #polizeiverhalten folgt
  12. @Rudolf_Muehland Das materialisierte Chaos. Befristet eingestellte Unterqualifizierte, die von ihren Vorgesetzten gegen andere Prekäre in die Schlacht geführt werden. Selbst die leitenden PR-Manager dieses Systems blamieren sich regelmäßig mit ihrer Ignoranz auf diesem Feld. Frag mal Kommunalehrenamtler, die im Beirat Jobcenter ihrer Kommune so was immer wieder mitansehen und -hören müssen. #DiktaturdesKapitals
