June 16, 2024 - Around 10.000 antifascists marched through Brussels to show their disgust with the Belgian EU election results, in which fascist party Vlaams Belang got 14,5% of the votes, and other far-right parties also got huge shares of the vote. During the march the headquarters of Vlaams Belang was pelted with rocks and trash and covered in graffiti. [video]

If youre voting remember thats the lesser of your actions. Start unionizing, start beating up fascists who invade our protests and protect our protesting college kids from cops. You wanna win dont just put the onus on voting the lesser of two evils the major length of your resistance simply must be more than that. Consider everything legal and choose your battles.

Clinically relevant anxiety is the result of a brain that was forced to remain in a state of caution and fear for too long without respite.

We live in a world where we are increasingly aware of the constant danger we are exposed to.

Climate change, COVID, wars, bigotry, terrorism, poverty and human suffering, the once-more rise of far right power are all persistent sources of concern and worry. Capitalist society however tells us that these things are simply without alternative. Capitalism says there is no way but to live like this. Some people tried to be cautious about COVID for a while and then started repressing their worry and stopped being cautious. Some people repressed it all along and pretended COVID never existed. They lost themselves in conspiracy ideologies to escape that dread.

And those of us that are still cautious about COVID are gaslit constantly. The reality is this: the world is dangerous. COVID is a danger to us all. But as long as society (capitalism) claims that there is simply no way to change or remove that danger (this is false, of course) most people see no other way than to repress their own fears and gaslight those that don’t. The reason people lash out at those that are still cautious (like when we wear masks in public) is because it hinders their attempt at repressing this otherwise seemingly inescapable mental torture.

And when we as COVID cautious people struggle with the clinically relevant anxiety that constant caution breeds we are gaslit once more. We are told that our anxiety is clinically relevant and requires treatment and all too often clinical professionals claim that our anxiety stems from irrational worries and caution unnecessary. The truth is that our fears ARE rational. We live in a dangerous world and its NOT a healthy thing to repress it. The natural and healthy thing would be to CHANGE conditions to not be a source of constant worry but as long as capitalism blocks that it appears that the most prevalent coping strategies are either repression or taking constant psychological damage. And when we seek support for that sustained damage its the opposite of helpful that our reality is invalidated and we’re told our fears are clinical. The way we live is unhealthy. The way we live is not natural. The way we live is damaging. But we still need to find ways to manage our anxiety and our existential dread WITHOUT damaging ourselves but also WITHOUT closing our eyes to the horrors of this world entirely. To be aware and awake and STILL find ways to destress and live because it won’t help the world NOR us if we destroy ourselves and burn out.

Fascism relies on fear and withers against mockery.

We are all terrified, for excellent reasons. We keep getting reminded that we need community and joy to survive this.

I propose we #RockytheInauguration

Organize as many stagings, showings, and shadowcasts of "Rocky Horror" as humanly possible on Inauguration Day 2025.

Make it a newsworthy event. Showcase queer joy and queer love. Fill every capital city, especially DC, with people dancing in fishnets. Have an Eddie brigade re-enact Rolling Thunder wherever they can. Play "The Time Warp" on the steps of every Capitol building.

Make our militant, joyful defiance a news event for the history books. Let all coverage of Fueher Scheisshosen's coronation be forever linked with Dr. Frank-N-Furter.

Let's make this happen.

Reminder to literally everyone: You should be using a VPN. Especially if your web habits are completely inane and you have nothing to hide. Somewhere out there is (for example) a woman trying to research how to get an abortion in a state where it's illegal, and she needs the net traffic of "upstanding citizens" so that she can safely get "lost in the crowd". Because if criminal activities are the only thing coming out of a VPN, the powers-that-be can justify pulling the plug on the whole thing. Be the smokescreen that hides the vulnerable. Use a VPN.
