Hi, do you want to write something about #anarchism, or something relevant for anarchists?

I'm in the editorial working group for @Freedom_Press the London-based paper founded in 1886 by Kropotkin and friends.

Send me a DM here, or email all of us on editor@freedompress.org.uk

Hi, I've just published a series of articles about autism and anarchism.

My aim is to say some useful things about the autistic experience, and how we, as autistics, can gain more control over our personal - and collective - liberation.

If you found them useful, please tell someone, or share.

Part 2 https://freedomnews.org.uk/2024/03/20/autism-and-anarchy-self-diagnosis-is-community-diagnosis/

Back in October I accidentally blocked the whole of mastodon.social. I stopped following several hundred people, and I'm still finding much-loved accounts that I've been missing.

If you are on that server (mastodon.social) and want to help me find people, I'd appreciate a boost. https://mastodon.nu/@Loukas/111160830899102763

I still think Mastodon is the superior system, but more people I know from real life and from other social media are on BlueSky, so I post a lot more over there.

Ping me if you make an account there and I'll follow you back.

Dear Europe, whatever happens today in the US, remember we promised to #StandWithUkraine.

And for as long as it takes.

Let's have some self-respect.

Disgusted by much human food.
Hates direct sunlight.

A death cult has taken over Israel, pushing settler militarism from apartheid to genocide. Holding up Netanyahu’s own crowd of opportunists, buffoons and evil rejects, the ethno-nationalist far right is calling the shots, writes Freedom's editor Uri Gordon. https://freedomnews.org.uk/2024/09/09/anti-fascism-and-the-gaza-genocide/ #israel #palestine #antifascism #anarchism

Dear National Trust members, this is your annual reminder to vote in the upcoming AGM. The "anti woke" Restore Trust, who are backed by The Tory Common Sense group are again listing 6 candidates. Although NT membership is over 5 million, only 0.5% actually vote. Restore Trust has a very active membership so don't let apathy give them a beach head for their anti woke vision. You can use the quick vote button to vote for NT preferred candidates. Voting closes 25th October. Please boost.
