Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you
Ye are many — they are few.Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) English poet

Why no foreign uprising about Gaza genocide ?
One person on Mastodon asked why people in Western countries, the countries complicit in the Gaza genocide,
do not rise up and overthrow the regimes.Very interesting question.
And can I write about this here without getting arrested immediately ?
You never know in this “cool”, former colonist, Netherlands country.
Therefore I’ll keep it polite and “classy”.My gut feeling not based on facts tells me that this is not feasible in Western Europe.
In South America maybe. In Africa and Asia it’s possible.And then there’s the mysterious USA.
One wonders what happened to all the bragging gun lovers wanting to defend themselves.
Now that the enemy within, the fascist Trump regime, is destroying parts of USA (with Putin
in Russia laughing” there is still no civil war. Ironically Elon “Nazi salute” Musk who
made hints about civil war in the UK is still influencing millions of people without
any repercussions.How about the Netherlands (further abbreviated as NL) ?
Since a really long time I have been thinking that the middle class has grown too big,
and too many people have been happy with their TVs, cars, and more recently an
incredible amount of people appear to be married with their phones.As long if there is not a critical mass of angry people in a country
who want big chances there’s little chance for an uprising.But in general for uprisings various other ingredients can be important.
For example, a corrupt military.However, one thing is that mass surveillance is pretty strong in NL.
Cameras everywhere, and climate activists getting arrested for no reason, just
for intimidation.
(With some “funny” exception like diamond stealing. A bunch of guys stole several
diamonds during the day at an exhibition and <checks notes> they got away by
using electric steps, and still not arrested as far as I’ve seen in the news.)
The other thing is that fossil fuels dependency (and possibly lobbying, bribes)
is pretty strong, as well as the “special” relationships with the USA and Israel,
meaning that there’s all kind of companies involved backing the government’s
status quo.Add to that the massive rise of fascism, with fascism ideas been normalized in
talkshows, newspapers, TV, radio and so on.
Currently the Netherlands has these fascist political parties in the 2nd Chamber :
PVV,FvD,JA21,Groep Markuszo, and the fascist leaning VVD,BBB,SGP.
That’s a scary seven political parties.Regime change in the Netherlands, whether that is by voting, discrediting
fascists, demonstrations, writing to your MPs and so on, is not realistic
any time soon.What can do you if you’re in the Netherlands apart from boycotting Israel ?
Take on the fossil fuel, by doing this it basically weakens the power of the
current government.– Buy a solar panel for your balcony.
If you don’t want to spend money on it start a crowdfunding campaign.– Experiment with wind energy for small things that need little amount
of energy.– Stop cooking on gas. Buy a rice-cooker. Eat more raw food and bread.
– Break with the banks that support climate-destruction, war, apartheid.
– Break with health care insurance companies that support
climate-destruction, war, apartheid.– Urge your city to do more for public transport.
– Start talking about Israel’s apartheid. NL has a history with
apartheid in South-Africa, that is an emotional connections. Lots of
politicians, newspapers and journalists are still very afraid to use the word
genocide in regards to Gaza. Therefore empathize on the word
apartheid. Israel is an apartheid state and NL is shamefully supporting
that very much.– Ask your work to be allowed to work more from home if you need to
travel by car to your work.– Donate to projects that will support Palestine, for example
Plant een olijfboom.– Call out government and complicit people about them falling for the
lobbying by CIDI. If they really stand for all Jews in this world why
is a Jewish group like Een ander Joods geluid every time excluded
from talks with the government ?– Promote music that is anti-genocide and pro-Palestine, for example
the Irish band Kneecap and Bob Vylan.– Consider traveling to the West Bank to support Palestine people
against the Zionist settlers violence simply by staying there.– Follow the Global Sumus Flotilla sailing with more than 100 boats to Gaza
to break the illegal siege.– Write angry letters to your newspapers about the shameful Israel apartheid
complicity of NL.– Tell people that the slogan “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will
be free” is not a violent slogan. Go read about the violent Christian Crusades
history and you’ll see the name Palestine. Jews and Palestians have lived
in peace in the past in the same area.– Share this story.
Boosting is not immediately endorsement. You can boost
a Mastodon post to share ideas, food for thought, food for discussion,
food for change. Go for critical thinking.Like in the Monty Python movie Life of Brian where Brian from an open window
shouts to the huge crowd outside below “You need to think for yourself!”
(and the crowd, like a unison choir shouts “We need to think for ourselves”).Critical thinking is something we need more than before in these times
where silence and looking away has become normal for many people.Free free Palestine!

「毛派在掌权后为了维持统治，逐渐放弃了革命目标，转而采纳了资本主义做法。这些做法恰恰与他们声称摧毁的旧压迫体系如出一辙…
…令人欣慰的是，无政府主义运动正在悄然兴起，并日益获得认可。
有效的抵抗必须结合有组织的倡议教育、动员工作以及应对自发性群众起义的准备。引导社会运动朝着正确方向发展至关重要，尤其要管理好应对政府垮台时产生的权力真空 ——资本主义势力常趁机填补以恢复旧秩序，旧精英们会试图重新夺回权力 ……
我们给全球同志们的建议是：不仅要为反抗做准备，更要为政权倒台后的破除等级制的新结构和社会重建做好准备。」🧬日历更新《推翻政府仅仅是第一步》

Nepalesische #Anarchisten über den Sturz der Regierung: Ein Interview mit Black Book Distro
In Nepal eskalierte Anfang September 2025 eine #Protestbewegung als Reaktion auf #Polizeigewalt zu einem spontanen #Aufstand, der mit der #Brandstiftung des #Parlaments und einer Reihe von #Regierungsgebäuden, #Polizeistationen, #Parteizentralen und #Villen von #Politikern gipfelte. Innerhalb von anderthalb Tagen war #Premierminister Khadga Prasad Oli geflohen und die Regierung war zusammengebrochen. Aber der Sturz einer Regierung ist nur die erste Phase eines viel längeren Kampfes; inmitten dieser #Unruhen konkurrieren #Monarchisten, #Neoliberale und #Radikale um die Zukunft Nepals. Um ein klareres Verständnis für den #Hintergrund des Aufstands und die Dynamik innerhalb desselben zu bekommen, haben wir Black Book Distro interviewt, ein anarchistisches #Kollektiv und eine #Bibliothek in #Kathmandu.
Der Aufstand in Nepal ist Teil einer Reihe von Aufständen, die Asien in den letzten Jahren erschüttert haben. Wir können die Spuren der Funken vom Sturz des Präsidenten von Sri Lanka im Jahr 2022 bis zum Aufstand in #Bangladesch im Jahr 2024 und dem Aufstand in #Indonesien im August 2025 verfolgen, ganz zu schweigen vom anhaltenden Bürgerkrieg in #Myanmar.
Seit dem Sturz der nepalesischen Regierung sind auch auf den #Philippinen heftige #Proteste ausgebrochen. All dies ist eine Reaktion auf die weit verbreitete wirtschaftliche Not und das Versagen der Versprechen der Politiker. Die #Komplizenschaft der institutionellen kommunistischen Parteien bei dem #Massaker, das den Aufstand ausgelöst hat, sollte alle angehenden Revolutionäre daran erinnern, dass es unmöglich ist, die Probleme des #Kapitalismus allein durch die Gewalt des Staates zu lösen – selbst wenn man „kommunistisch” im Namen seiner Partei hat.
Die Herausforderungen, die der Kapitalismus für die Menschen mit sich bringt, erfordern radikalere Veränderungen, als sie mit #Polizeiausrüstung und politischen Vorschlägen in den Machtzentralen erreicht werden können.
Ebenso sollte dieser Aufstand Politikern und #Polizisten auf der ganzen Welt zu denken geben, die glauben, sie könnten ungestraft plündern und terrorisieren. Heute mag das Geld, das sie erhalten, sie vor den Folgen ihrer Handlungen schützen – aber morgen ist alles möglich.
Keine dieser Revolten hat bisher alle ihre Ziele erreicht, aber während Menschen auf der ganzen Welt mit #Oligarchie und staatlicher #Unterdrückung zu kämpfen haben, bietet jede von ihnen Lehren.
Wie ein Kommentator in den sozialen Medien es ausdrückte: „Nur ein junger Mann, der die Haut des Feindes trägt.“
Stell dein Projekt vor. Wer bist du und was machst du?
Wir sind Black Book Distro, ein anarchistisches Kollektiv und eine Bibliothek mit Sitz in Kathmandu, Nepal, die sich der Radikalisierung durch Aufklärung über die Geschichte der #Linken sowie der aktiven Beteiligung an Volkskämpfen und Bewegungen widmet, die wir für mit unseren Zielen vereinbar halten (die Proteste der Generation Z, die Meter-Byaj-Bewegung,1 die Guthi-Bewegung2). Wir sprechen zu euch als anarchistische Bewegung, die unter der Unterdrückung eines gescheiterten und korrupten kommunistischen #Regimes und #Kongresses steht.
Gib uns einen kurzen Überblick über die sozialen Bewegungen und Kämpfe in Nepal in den letzten ein oder zwei Jahrzehnten. Was waren die wichtigsten Anliegen, die zu den Unruhen in der #Bevölkerung geführt haben?
Nach der maoistischen Revolution hat Nepal mehrere Wellen sozialer, wirtschaftlicher, geografischer und politischer Umbrüche erlebt. Zu den wichtigsten Problemen gehören die weit verbreitete #Kastendiskriminierung, eine tödliche Epidemie des #Menschenhandels mit #Wanderarbeitern, die durch den Mangel an Möglichkeiten im eigenen Land angeheizt wird, regelmäßige #Grenzkonflikte mit unseren atomar bewaffneten Nachbarn und eine politische #Korruption, die so dreist ist, dass sie zu einem erschreckend starken Wiederaufleben monarchistischer Gefühle im Land geführt hat.
Zu den #Volksbewegungen für Veränderungen gehörten der Kampf der #Madhesh um Rechte und Würde, Proteste gegen die Korruption in der #COVID-Ära unter dem Motto „Enough Is Enough” (Genug ist genug), nationalistische Streitigkeiten über Grenzgebiete wie #Lipulekh, die #Hungerstreiks von Dr. KC für eine bessere #Gesundheitsinfrastruktur, der Widerstand gegen räuberische #Hypothekenzinsen und die Verteidigung der #Gemeinschaftsflächen des Volkes der #Newar.
Diese Kämpfe werden von einem komplexen sozialen Gefüge angetrieben, das immer noch von #Patriarchat, #Kastenwesen und #Religion geprägt ist, während gleichzeitig verfassungsrechtliche Bemühungen um Repräsentation, #Meinungsfreiheit, wirtschaftliche Freiheit und #Föderalismus unternommen werden. Die wichtigsten politischen Organisationen sind die #Kongresspartei, maoistische und marxistisch-leninistische Parteien sowie royalistische Fraktionen. Darunter gibt es unabhängige Jugendgruppen, linke Räume und indigene Gemeinschaftsgruppen.
Historisch gesehen wurden die meisten Proteste von den großen politischen Parteien angeführt oder beeinflusst, obwohl spontane Jugend- und #Basisinitiativen zunehmend unabhängig agieren (einschließlich des jüngsten Aufstands der „Generation Z“).
„Heute wurden scharfe Munition gegen #Zivilisten, darunter auch #Kinder eingesetzt. Wir waren an vorderster Front. Wir haben gesehen, wie viele Menschen erschossen wurden.“

Heute in der Geschichte der #Arbeiterklasse: 20. Juli 1549: Beginn der Ketts Rebellion gegen die Einfriedungen. Am 6. Juli fingen die Rebellen an, Einfriedungen in Morley St. Botolph zu zerstören. Als sie am 20. Juli das Anwesen von John Flowerdew angriffen, versuchte er, sie zu bestechen, damit sie stattdessen das Anwesen von Robert Kett angreifen. Der Plan ging aber nach hinten los, als Kett sich den Rebellen anschloss und ihnen half, seine eigenen Zäune niederzureißen. Ihre 3.500 Mann starke Volksarmee eroberte Norwich. Sie stellten die Landbesitzer massenhaft vor Gericht und gründeten auf Mousehold Heath eine Republik. Die Bewegung gewann an Stärke, die Armee wuchs auf 16.000 Mann an. Die Behörden schlugen den Aufstand schließlich nieder. Insgesamt starben 3.000 Rebellen und 250 Söldner des Staates in den Kämpfen. Aber Kett lehnte die Begnadigung des Königs ab und sagte: „Könige begnadigen normalerweise böse Menschen, nicht unschuldige Männer. Wir haben nichts getan, um eine solche Begnadigung zu verdienen. Wir haben uns keines Verbrechens schuldig gemacht.“ Daraufhin folterten die Behörden Kett und hängten ihn langsam über mehrere Tage hinweg.
Zahlreiche historische Romane haben Ketts Rebellion thematisiert: „Mistress Haselwode: A tale of the Reformation Oak“ (1876) von Frederick H. Moore; „For Kett and Countryside“ (1910) von F.C. Tansley; „The Great Oak“ (1949) von Jack Lindsay; „A Rebellious Oak“ (2012) von Margaret Callow und „Tombland“ (2018) von C.J.

On April 12, 2015, lifelong Baltimore resident #Freddie #Gray was arrested, hogtied and thrown into the back of a police van by six officers.
When Gray was pulled from the van less than an hour later, he was in a coma.
A week later, he passed away from severe injuries to his cervical spinal cord.
The incident, and the revelations thereafter, set Baltimore and the entire country ablaze.
Details of the case alleged officers had taken Gray for a “rough ride,”
a police brutality practice
where individuals are intentionally left unrestrained in police vehicles during dangerous driving maneuvers.After a coroner ruled Gray’s death a homicide,
the six officers involved in his arrest were charged with crimes ranging from false imprisonment to manslaughter.But the damage was done, not only to Gray, but to his community,
which had endured decades of deprivations and abuse by Baltimore police.The resulting #Baltimore #Uprising shook the city and the nation to its core,
fueling a fresh wave of Black Lives Matter protests building on the murders of #Trayvon #Martin, #Mike #Brown, and #Eric #Garner. -

特朗普在2024年的胜利标志着21世纪政治话语的一个关键转折点。2016年特朗普当选时，新自由主义共识似乎所向披靡；他的胜利似乎代表着一种侥幸 —— 一个离群索居的政客通过利用所谓“反全球化运动”的言论而上台的侥幸。而如今，新自由主义共识的鼎盛时期显然已经过去，下一个必须是别的东西。然而，几十年来，民主党一直与共和党合作，压制提出替代方案的运动。他们压制自己阵营中代表前进方向的力量，如伯尼·桑德斯运动；这使得特朗普有可能把自己伪装成“反叛的代表”。
这使得极右翼在下一阶段不可避免地掌握权力，因为民主党帮助压制了无政府主义、反专制主义和左翼的替代方案。
……
如果民主党的领导层屈服，接受法西斯主义的地位，那么未来确实会非常暗淡。
而另一方面，如果全国有一半的人显然会抵制特朗普的计划，那么民主党领导层中的一部分人将被迫去追逐他们作为这部分人“代表”的地位，就像2017年发生的那样。接下来会发生什么，将在街头决定。

On a sweltering evening in the thumb pad of Michigan’s mitten, a self-described prophet promised 700 Christians under a crisp white tent that they were about to #cheat #death.
They would do this by winning the swing state for Donald Trump.The reasoning was simple:
Each of the Christians assembled would soon feel a call to become a #poll #watcher or to knock on doors or to organize their church
—to take part in some act that would aid the Republican presidential candidate.⭐️And that act would keep them safe, the prophet said, because God would not call them home before they had completed the task He had given them.
🔥“The greatest argument you have with death is an unfulfilled assignment,” the man, #Lance #Wallnau, told the crowdThis was the third stop of the “#Courage #Tour,”
a traveling worship spectacle passing through key battleground states ahead of the upcoming presidential election.Organized by Wallnau, a sixtysomething Texas-based evangelical with a salesman’s persona,
the three-day event was a marriage of the religious and the political,
a swirl of prophecies and PowerPoints and speaking in tongues.It was a call to arms, a campaign strategy session, and
—above all
—an honest-to-God old-fashioned Pentecostal tent revival.It was also a showcase of the power of a rapidly growing, militant right-wing movement in American Christianity.
Wallnau is a major leader in a coalition of Christians who believe that Trump is prophesied to play a critical role in the nation’s spiritual reformation
—that the former president is destined to be a catalyst for the next Great Awakening, even.These Christians see Trump as a modern-day Cyrus the Great,
the powerful empire builder and nonbeliever who is credited in the Old Testament with returning the Jews to the Holy Land.They believe that under Trump’s protection, American Christians will rise up,
defeat their #demonic #enemies,
and take their rightful place of power in the country.This belief in a Trump prophecy has only grown stronger among the faithful since the former president survived an #assassination attempt in July.
It is so strong, in fact, that anything that could stand in Trump’s way
—democratic or otherwise
—is perceived as a force of #evil that must be battled on a spiritual plane.This has already played out once:
After Trump lost the 2020 election, Wallnau held nearly daily rants about the #stolen #election on Facebook Live;he decreed in one online prayer call that 💥God would overturn the election results.
He spoke at a major rally for Christian election deniers in Washington on Dec. 12 of that year,
warning that there was “a backlash coming”
and announcing that it would be the “beginning of a #Christian #populist #uprising.”He and other right-wing Christian leaders circled the Capitol while blowing #shofars and praying for the election to be overturned,
drawing clear parallels to the biblical story from the Book of Joshua in which the Israelite army marches around the city of Jericho,
blowing horns until its walls crumble and the Israelites conquer the city and #slaughter its inhabitants.The event, which preceded a night of #political #violence in the nation’s capital, drew thousands of attendees in what was widely seen as a precursor to the Jan. 6 riot.

#Diné #JohnRedhouse 'Fifty Years Ago: #Uprising and #Resistance'
By John Redhouse, #CensoredNews, May 24, 2024
"On this #MemorialDay weekend, we must also remember and honor the many native #HumanRights warriors such as #LarryCasuse and other brave indigenous men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in fighting for the lives and future of red people and nations on #TurtleIsland and throughout the Western Hemisphere—the red quarter of #MotherEarth.
"In the course of our long, hard, and bloody struggle for survival, since 1492, we are here only because our ancestors fought for our right to live and exist as first people and nations in the Americas.
"As an aging but still surviving veteran of the intense bordertown wars in Gallup and Farmington in the 1970s, I will remember always great warriors such as #HerbBlatchford, #RobertNakaidinae, #FredJohnson, #LucyKeeswood, and many, many more courageous fighters of that era including the late great Lorenzo LeValdo and Taft Scott who were also very much a part of the 1974 #Totah #Navajo #CivilRights campaign."

The word #شهيد, #shaheed, "carries connotations not only of seeing, but of presence and proximity. To be a #witness is to make contact, to be touched, and to bear the marks of this touch.
"Shaheed is the word Palestinians use to describe those lost to Israeli violence, a word which has drawn condemnation from American universities and press, who once again presume to know the meaning of Arabic-rooted terms, without bothering to investigate. They allege the word #martyr glorifies death for death’s sake. But in this context, it should be read as honoring the truth these brutalized bodies speak. Their flesh, marked by colonial violence, makes visible the wild injustice they endured. Which is to say, their martyrdom tells us the truth about our world."

Don’t Stop: Continuing the Fight against #CopCity
Six More Months in the Movement to Defend the Forest
2023-12-12 via #CrimeThinc"Escalating Repression: #RICO and the Furtherance of the Conspiracy
"With the benefit of hindsight, it is clear that the 'tactics of organized criminals' language Governor Kemp used on July 2 was not just boilerplate copy drafted by an intern, nor was the August 2 press conference simply propaganda to assure backers that the state could still protect their investments. These phrases and statements were shaping operations, carefully crafted interventions designed to position the government for their next operation: the blanket criminalization of the entire movement.
"On August 29, the Attorney General of #Georgia, Christopher M. Carr, filed an indictment with the Fulton County Superior Court, bringing charges against 61 people under Georgia’s version of the Rackeeter-Influenced Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act O.C.G.A. § 16-14-4. The indictment became public on September 5. The document, which is over 100 pages long and very poorly written, claims that the 'conspiracy' (which it names 'Defend the Atlanta Forest') was 'founded' on May 25, 2020—the day that #MinneapolisPolice officers murdered #GeorgeFloyd, precipitating a nationwide #uprising.
"This was a serious escalation. It did not catch everyone by surprise: the #AtlantaSolidarityFund has been braced for such charges since February. The authorities and their extreme-right proxies had been demanding a full-scale crackdown on the movement for over a year, spreading a conspiracy theory that the movement was a mafia controlled by a shadowy and well-connected group (a narrative some activists also reproduced, apparently with no sense of irony). According to one version of this conspiracy theory, circulated by far-right trolls, the Network for Stronger Communities (a Georgia-based nonprofit organization) operates a number of financial enterprises, including the Atlanta Solidarity Fund, that coordinate acts of terrorism in order to accumulate wealth and influence. Of the 61 accused, three were members of the Atlanta Solidarity Fund. The 42 people already facing #DomesticTerrorism charges were also indicted, as well as a number of other people whose connection to the movement was unclear. The indictment alleged that some people had committed acts in 'overt furtherance of the conspiracy' such as buying #GlueSticks for #SignMaking. [UK is using similar tactics, arresting people for just having #Superglue or #BikeLocks in their possession.]
"The RICO indictment was not a legal procedure but a political act. It was not a judicial intervention to suppress criminal activity but a government measure to crush what the text describes as '#anarchism,' '#collectivism,' '#SocialSolidarity,' '#MutualAid.”
"It is not simply 61 people who are on trial. By dating the case to the murder of George Floyd, the prosecution showed that their real target was the entire population of millions that participated in the consequent revolt. This is not an unusual court case, but a new chapter in the fight between those who seek to preserve the hierarchies of a structurally white supremacist society and those fighting to destroy it root and branch. The indictment does not present a list of crimes. It describes the contours and values of a rival society emerging within the movement to stop Cop City, aspiring to reinvent the world according to a different logic.
"The Fulton County Judge assigned to the RICO case immediately recused himself. Until then, judges had not recused themselves from cases related to the movement even when they possessed obvious ties to the Atlanta Police Foundation."
