Anarchism is a social movement that seeks liberation from oppressive systems of control including but not limited to the state, capitalism, racism, sexism, speciesism, and religion. Anarchists advocate a self-managed, classless, stateless society without borders, bosses, or rulers where everyone takes collective responsibility for the health and prosperity of themselves and the environment.

Giuseppe "Pino" Pinelli (1928 - 1969) was an Italian railroad worker and anarchist who fell to his death on this day in 1969 while being detained by Italian police. His death became the subject of the play "Accidental Death of an Anarchist" by Dario Fo.

Pinelli was a member of the Milan-based anarchist association named "Ponte della Ghisolfa", and was also the secretary of the Italian branch of the Anarchist Black Cross. He organized young anarchists in the "Gioventu Libertaria" (Libertarian Youth) in 1962 and helped found the "Sacco and Vanzetti anarchist association" in 1965.

A few days before Pinelli's death, Italian fascists from the "Ordine Nuovo" orchestrated a bombing campaign in Milan; one bomb in Piazza Fontana killed 17 people and injured 88. The bombing was blamed on Italian anarchists, and Pinelli was detained along with many other leftists, including Pietro Valpreda, who was falsely convicted and served eighteen years in prison.

Just before midnight on December 15th, 1969, Pinelli fell to his death from a fourth floor window of the Milan police station. Three police officers interrogating Pinelli, including Commissioner Luigi Calabresi, were put under investigation in 1971 for his death, but legal proceedings concluded it was due to accidental causes.

Calabresi was later gunned down at his home in 1972, for which left-wing journalist Adriano Sofri was convicted in 1997.

What do they think the secret ingredient of bud light is? HRT? COVID vax? Bill Gates mind control chips?

Idk, that shit was annoying as fuck, imo. Democrats decided they'd finally stop "taking the high road" and what they decided to do instead was the equivalent of trying to convince everyone the kid you don't like has cooties.

... Which is still better than constantly accusing Republicans of being closeted queers / fat / autistic / mentally ill / DEI hires / etc, I guess.

Was reading Domineco Losurdo's Western Marxism over a pint at the pub last night and heard the question I dread when I'm reading a text like this in public.

"What are you reading?" the server asked as he was bringing me the bill. I took a breath and explained yes bud actually I am some sort of weirdo actually (I actually just explained the premise of the book) and he was like "oh interesting! I studied philosophy in university with a minor in political science, who wrote it?" and ended up asking if he could take a snap of the cover before peacing haha

Crazy to think Jimmy Carter could have met with Joseph Stalin and most of Soviets leaders. Living to 100 years old must be very weird.

The thing where Chomsky, MLK and Anne Frank would be roughly the same age, if the latter two weren’t dead.

Just want to remind y'all that I'm still (technically) here. Rough few days at work, not that I was ever a prolific poster.

In the third Indiana jones movie they went to Petra and it made me want to visit Petra. I checked the travel advisory for Jordan and went β€œoh right, there’s tragedies in every direction”

Got a post office snapback at the thrift store lol

Do you think if I wore it and just went into the post office and started sorting shit for them and asked for a paycheck they'd hire me?

Also tempted to turn the bill up like a hardcore bro and write like, "GOIN' POSTAL" on the underside of the visor in a paint pen or something lmao

Delenne from Babylon 5 was supposed to be trans. Her sesson one full mimbari form was supposed to be played by a dude and then after she got out of cocoon she was then supposed to be played by a woman.

Had our first new blueskyer banned already, rip. I'm searching Hexbear on there and so many of the original poster's followers are resharing the message and getting their friends to make accounts. It's pretty wild to see.

I love that the music basically never stops playing. If I had John Williams doing the score I’d do the exact same thing.

I worked at a large scale catering place and when we had to plate desserts we'd play the Indiana jones theme, basically we'd take a basketball court worth of space, line it with tables, and each person ran a serpentine route with one stage of the plating each, especially if whipped cream or something that would melt was involved. It worked

Last year I went to Taiwan to visit my wife’s family and this year I’m going to the US to visit my relatives. It’s always nostalgic to walk off the plane and see Upstate New York being as scuffed as ever.

Dating advice vid watching them again for nuggets of advice but I click off when they start taking about their course or whatever. At least I'm not being recommended any red pill stuff anymore or if I do hear it it's usually through a filter of someone else dissecting it. Mentally I feel fine by myself but I wouldn't say not to having a social life you know?

The music in Creature Commandos is quite suited to my tastes. I didn't know anyone but me and five other people that liked Caravan of Thieves.

What if instead of proselytizing it was Proustelytizing and it was about spreading the good word of the best French writer of the 20th century

I found these banana bread candles that I really like, so I've been burning a bunch of them here lately, but I'm afraid that I'm going to get burnt out on them πŸ˜…. They just smell so good.
