Die aktuelle moralische Panik um die 'neue autoritäre Linke' ist vor allem ein weiterer Ausdruck der gegenwärtigen Faschisierung. nothing more, nothing less.

Sehr guter Bericht von Michèle Winkler, der sowohl die Terrortaktiken von ICE als auch hyperlokale Widerstände in den Blick nimmt: www.grundrechtekomitee.de/details/soli...

Amazing, congrats, Anthony!

Congratulations Anthony! 📕🎵
Everyone who wants to read a splendid analysis of abolition in the making by black leftists in the 1930s in the US (like Du Bois, Richard Wright, Marvel Cooke, William L. Patterson, Louise Thompson, and Langston Hughes) should read this book!

Can Trump’s Plan for Warehouse Immigrant Detention Camps Be Stopped? ICE has the money it needs to turn warehouses into prisons for immigrants. But local pressure stopped one project in its tracks.

The huge budget for ICE mega warehouses reflects the most Trumpian mix: cronyist dealmaking in service of white nationalism... if local self-interest becomes a barrier to the expansion of Trump’s deportation regime, that’s no bad thing @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2026/02/17/w...

Posting this gem by RWG on post-Keynesian militarism, crisis & surplus as a reminder, as it seems that some folks still do not understand what abolition is actually about (e.g. heard a convo where someone said that abolition is about abolishing "things"): journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Danielle Araújo & Silvia Rodríguez invited us to be part of a symposium on anti-black violence in 2022, while there was some delay, I am so grateful that all the great pieces are now out in the world with antipode, including my piece on policing, un-breathing & black geographies in europe (oa).

This Isn’t the First Killing by ICE — and It Won’t Be the Last ICE shot a woman point-blank in Minneapolis. The agency’s raids and impunity were always going to lead to death.

Given ICE’s violent, impunity-drenched core, at a moment when the Trump regime is leaning heavily into a vision of dominance grounded in aggression and lawlessness, such a killing (certainly not ICE's first) was all but inevitable. @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2026/01/07/i...
