Imperialism do not need more competitors

It need to be stopped as a whole

Fun that Element is on the list, while there is a 3rd bill attempt in a year to forbid or bypass encryption in instant messaging. Europe maybe not as fascist as US or Russia, it’s still is a shitty capitalist and imperialist place.

Nah. Some European fascists are anti-US too. Just not their main parties

People getting organized and strike back in many place. If we want to get inform and to support them, we need to organize internationally

This world no longer exist. Now we have laptop \0/

I would not say that European States as nothing in return. Lots of this money and material are loan, and neoliberal rules where apply since the beginning of the european backup. For example, laws against strike and unions.

News are quite anxious, and I understand that we have to take her of ourselves by categorize it. However all political contents do not bring anxiety. I’m sorry but ignoring people struggling for their lives with tag system is making hell places for them, not safe place.

I don’t see the point of that kind of contribution, and I must admit, I seems kind of suspicious to me

Understand what make our life shitty, and smashing the smallest and less protected object of those things. Tesla, ATM, Adds, …

You could organize too, but its take more time to take effect

Marxists and unionists

It’s fun with this rhetoric, 'cause if you replace imperialism by capitalism, and country name with corporation name, we immediately see how confuse it is. “You can’t say Shell is capitalist, it’s not the global leader in the Petrolum Market. BT is”

We are talking about system. The Federation of Russia engaged in a competition against NATO, which result in wars and economic predation for power and ressources.

The same logic apply for Iran and China, but not on the same scale. A state is structured with the current international relationship; it need to gather power to secure its existence. Exactly like a corporation. North Korea is weak example of imperialism, not because it would be “socialist”, but because it is losing the competition against other states.

That’s why strong workers organisations where independent from states and political parties. And that’s why we may mobilize first and mainly (but not only) against our one State imperialism, in order to not feeding this international competition.

And if you think that’s their is no colonial history in Russia, you may think again. The Eastern conquest had some similarity with the western one in the USA.

For information, a strike is going one in the video game industry in france, including ubisoft : https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@STJV/113843503849511121

And inside france :

• Social Republic 1871, Paris, Marseille, Saint-Étienne, Narbonne, Toulouse, Perpignan, Creusot, Grenoble, Bordeaux and Nîmes l
• Bavarian Soviet Republic (1918), which included Alsace

We shall stop being anxious, and start to be outraged. Organize, fight back, even at small scale

People are self hosting their emails for themselves, their collective, or their relatives. This a solution to avoid regulations, and keep a low profile. Their is others solutions (such as, not using email, or encrypt email by yourself). You could keep saying that everybody should using VPN (which don’t remove the issue, but move it elsewhere) or we could be less idealist and see what people are actually doing, and why.

All I see is Direct Action

Sooo what proton will do now if some fascist law ask proton to jail people, or worst ? Please stop to say they have no choice. They choose to make a public organization, and say it is safe. It’s not. Being public, host data for people and activists, and respect imperialist law is not possible. This was a bad solution from the beginning.

You could say that they say so in their legal term. Nobody read them, and everybody still think proton is top notch on safety. We couldn’t warn every activists that this just marketing. Their is no collective with enough people to be heard.

Maybe you think that Proton leaders try their best. That not the point. The point is that people are being repressed, and that being critical could diminish their numbers in the futur.

Proton AG do not depend of the European Union. It’s a Switzerland company, that snitched ecelogist activist to french intelligence. Swiss is very conservative, with a lot of disdain for foreign workforce. I don’t see any contradiction.

Which on I don’t see how social revolution could not turn wrong without a being run directly by the workers. So I would recommend self-managed unions, such as those taking part in the International Confederation of Labor (ICL).

Their is other international organization of unions, but their are more a coordination than an international (for example Labor Solidarity. I would like to give other options, but as far as I know, they do not exist anymore.

unionize in an antifascist and international organization ?

Yep, the uniform seems to be a thing. However, the experience of social struggle is a thing too In France, after the police making their job (using gaz and punching people in struggle), firefighters fight back. This append several time, and have impact on public opinion (and main media bougeoisie)
