Five years ago today, the Russian anarchist Aleksei Sutuga passed away as the consequence of a tragic accident that occurred as a result of his choosing, once again, to stand up for others.
His friends remember him as "a big, strong, reliable, kindhearted guy from Siberia, an anti-fascist, an anarchist, a real hero of the working class who knew how to listen, think, make decisions, and act." 🖤
We, too, remember Aleksei Sutuga.

The trial of Jair Bolsonaro and his allied generals begins today for their plot to stage a coup d'état in January 2023 after losing the election to Lula da Silva. In addition to a business-funded uprising that stormed the government headquarters in Brasília on January 8, 2023—emulating Trump on January 6—his political and military allies plotted to kill Lula, his vice-presidential candidate, and members of the Brazilian Supreme Court.
This is the first time in Brazil that a political leader and military generals have gone to court for a coup d'état or attempted coup. The country has endured several coup attempts and two dictatorships—the last of which lasted until 1985—and none of the military officials responsible for disappearances, torture, and deaths have been tried and punished.

This time, the international press and politicians are calling attention to "the maturity of Brazilian democracy" in trying Bolsonaro for his political crimes and making him ineligible to run for office so he doesn't return to power with impunity as Trump did. But it's symptomatic that Brazilian institutions only moved to act when the lives of their high-ranking members were at risk, not when Bolsonaro weaponized the COVID-19 pandemic against the poor, favela populations, and Indigenous peoples and turned entire cities into testing grounds for COVID-denialism, causing more than 716,000 senseless deaths, as attested by a parliamentary commission that investigated his crimes against the population.
We cannot expect these institutions to protect us. Historically, they have sided with coup plotters and murderers and only act to protect themselves. Our only hope is to organize a popular force capable of defending itself beyond the spectacles of media trials.

Today, we are remembering David Graeber, who passed away five years ago.
“Nothing could conceivably be more violent than to tell us—and particularly our young people—we are forbidden to even dream of a peaceful, caring world.”

A imprensa e políticos internacionais estão chamando a atenção para "a maturidade da democracia brasileira" ao julgar Bolsonaro por seus crimes políticos e torná-lo inelegível, para que não retorne ao poder impunemente, como fez Trump. Mas é sintomático que as instituições brasileiras só tenham agido quando as vidas de seus membros de alto escalão estavam em risco, não quando Bolsonaro usou a pandemia de COVID-19 como arma contra os pobres, as populações de favelas e os povos indígenas e transformou cidades inteiras em campos de testes para o negacionismo da COVID-19, causando mais de 716.000 mortes, como atestou uma comissão parlamentar que investigou seus crimes contra a população.
Não podemos esperar que essas instituições nos protejam. Historicamente, elas se aliaram a golpistas e assassinos e agem apenas para se proteger. Nossa única esperança é organizar uma força popular capaz de se defender para além dos espetáculos dos julgamentos midiáticos.

Nothing could be more naïve than to imagine that Donald Trump's effort to put the military on the streets of US cities has anything to do with "fighting crime." He himself is very clear: this is an act of war against the part of the population that does not support his autocracy.
No political party is going to protect us. We must build the capacity to defend ourselves through grassroots initiatives or watch powerlessly as his mercenaries come for our neighbors one after another until they finally come for us.
Gather the people you trust and discuss what kinds of action you are prepared to take together. The fascists are not in a position to triumph over us unless we remain passive. Get organized. 🏴

As people prepare to confront the new ICE offensive in Chicago, it's worth revisiting the day of action less than three months ago when thousands took the streets against them.

The lessons of that day should inform the next phase of resistance.

Tonight, the Israeli military has carried out a potentially lethal drone strike targeting a civilian vessel hundreds of miles away, solely on account of the passengers' intention to symbolically challenge the blockade that Israel is using to starve Gazans to death.
Although the Tunisian National Guard initially denied that a drone strike occurred, the Global Sumud Flotilla has posted both video footage and eyewitness testimony that appears to confirm that the boat was, indeed, struck by a drone attack. It seems most likely that, once again, the denial of the Tunisian National Guard simply indicates the complicity of international institutions in the perpetration of genocide in Gaza.
This attack is not surprising, considering that the Israeli military has attacked every single flotilla protesting the blockade around Gaza since 2010.

The violence of the Israeli state is systematic, indiscriminate, continuous, and targets anyone who could interfere with their program of ethnic cleansing. Backed by Christian Zionists, they perpetrate this violence right up to the limit of what they can get away with. In addition to the tens of thousands they have murdered and the millions they have displaced, rendered homeless, tortured, terrorized, and imprisoned, this also makes life more dangerous for Jewish people everywhere.

Insurrections occur in waves. We can trace the trail of sparks in Southeast Asia from the toppling of the president of Sri Lanka in 2022 to the 2024 uprising in Bangladesh to the revolt in Indonesia last month. Now the momentum has spread to Nepal.
Whatever happens next, this revolt should give pause to politicians and police who imagine that they can pillage and terrorize with impunity. Today, the money you obtain may insulate you from the consequences of your actions—but tomorrow?
None of these revolts have yet achieved all of their aims, but we can study all of them to see how they might. Likewise, the complicity of the Communist Party of Nepal in the massacre that catalyzed this revolt should remind all aspiring revolutionaries that even if you have "communist" in the name of your party, you won't be able to solve the problems of capitalism simply by wielding the violence of the state.
