Chantal Mouffe – A Left populist Strategy for Post-COVID-19

  Chantal Mouffe – A Left populist Strategy for Post-COVID-19 September 22, 2020 Source  https://braveneweurope.com/chantal-mouffe-a-left-populist-strategy-for-post-covid-19   The end of left populism has recently been announced by several of its critics who claim that, since left populist parties have not been able to reach their goals, it is time to return to the traditional class conception of politics. I want to challenge this view and argue that in the present conjuncture a left populist strategy is more relevant than ever. COVID-19 has exacerbated the existing inequalities and accentuated the organic crisis of neoliberalism. There will be no return to ‘business as usual’ after the pandemic. True, this is what happened after the 2008 economic crisis. But in those years the hegemony of neoliberalism went almost unchallenged and today the political context is different. The 2008 crisis brought to the fore the limits of financial capitalism, and neoliberal globalization...

From: The Anarchism of the Occupy Movement

The Anarchism of the Occupy Movement Author: Morgan Rodgers Gibson excerpt: Anarchism and an Anarchical Praxis In the popular imagination, anarchism is typically associated with chaos. Various self-appointed anarchists have affirmed such associations (see Bey 2003). At times, anarchists have advocated violence in the form of propaganda of the deed (Fleming 1988, 156–69) or bloody revolution (Bakunin 1972) as instrumental in achieving liberation. Nonetheless, affirmation of violence for its own sake constitutes a minority position in the anarchist tradition. Anarchism is a sophisticated ideology premised on opposition to externally imposed hierarchy. Central to anarchism is the primacy of the individual, who is seen to possess intrinsic moral worth, forming the existential core of anarchism as the teleological pursuit of individual freedom. This view is expressed most clearly by Mikhail Bakunin ([1871] 2008, 76), a Russian anarchist who considered himself a ‘fanatical lover of liberty’,...

On Moral Sense and Ethical Sensibilities...in the age of Covid

  Two names Two names to keep in mind: Alessandro La Fortezza, Andrea Camperio Ciani.  They are two teachers who are ready to resign from teaching because they reject the  green pass  as an instrument of social discrimination.  Here are some words they wrote, the first in an open letter to their students, the second in the resignation letter to the rector of the University where they teach. "Dear guys, in June we said goodbye with a" goodbye ", but today I have to tell you that maybe we won't see each other in September ... I will get the vaccine when and if I am convinced that it is the right thing to do, certainly not to go to school. restaurant, concert or wherever.  Not even to keep the job.   Let us remember that "man will not live on bread alone" (Mt 4.4) ... if one day I should decide to vaccinate myself, or if I feel the need to undergo a diagnostic swab, I would not download the green passport anyway, so that my individual choices, whatever th...

EXPLOSIVE Truth About Vaccines & COVID w/Inventor Of mRNA Vaccine Technology, Robert Malone

We tend to isolate ourselves into comfort-food-for-thought-serving-silos from the larger cohort of the great unwashed who represent the only organic/natural/instinctive opposition force to the Great Reset-engineering and establishment narratives-churning MOTU. If anything other than a NewNormal neo-fascism is to come to pass; if it matters to us half as much as the articles we post may want to suggest, we may need to do a bit less navel-gazing in our lil' discus enclaves and get out on the town to mix with the hoi polloi a bit. In that, perhaps Jimmy Dore - still naive and tenuous on a number of other related political topics; too much of a leftist legalitarian reformist - could stand as a model of an evolving RadOrg populist for the moment?  I feel that actually activated populism(working class' instinctive/organic socialism) is currently best represented on YouTube and Rokfin by working class Jimmy Dore and a more overtly revolutionary libertarianism/socialism-bridging combo ...

Let Us Go To The People

  Let Us Go To The People Author: Errico Malatesta Date: 4 February 1894 Source:  https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/errico-malatesta-let-us-go-to-the-people Editor’s Note In 1893, the Fasci movement had spread over Sicily—” fasci ” being the plural for “ fascio ” (bundle), a term that symbolized the strength of union and bore no relation but etymological with the later Fascist movement. It was a movement of peasants, miners, and workers that started with economic demands but escalated into a revolt, with strikes, attacks on city halls, destruction of custom-houses, and refusal to pay taxes. Dozens of workers were massacred by the armed forces. On 4 January 1894, the state of siege was declared in Sicily and a harsh repression ensued. In response, demonstrations took place in various Italian cities, peaking with an uprising that occurred in the anarchist stronghold of Carrara, where the state of siege was eventually declared, too. Malatesta had strongly supported the Fasc...
