There is no freedom without police abolition
Jayland Walker, a 25 year old young Black man, was shot by the police at least 60 times, he died. I’m tired of writing different variations of this sentence. I’m tired of writing this sentence where I change the name, the age, the number of shots. I’m tired of writing this sentence where Black is the only thing that is static. Black sometimes becomes Brown. I’m tired of living in a world where we have accepted racial hierarchy and it’s a given that of course the cops killed another Black man. It would be weird if they didn’t. It would be weird if the cops treated a Black person as a human. This is the world that we live in and we’ve chosen to accept. I say chosen because we don’t tear this shit down and burn it to the ground. What else is there to salvage? Gushers are not worth it. Sorry about the gushers thing, my brain is trying to make jokes again to cheer me up because it senses that I’m going into a deep dark hole and it’s not sure how I’ll be able to come out. Jayla is gone and nothing we can do is ever going to bring him back. But we have to fight y’all, we have to get rid of the police, there is no freedom until they are gone. They are the ones standing between us and a better world.
It’s time to channel your inner Harriet and Malcolm
People are really unhappy with the United States that 25% of them are now saying they are willing to take up arms against the USA. If your first thought was, well I hope it’s not the “right” ones, but the left ones, you are with me. Unfortunately, it seems like the “right” side is most interested in taking up arms. 45% of republicans believe in taking up arms, 35% of the independents, and 20% democrats. I’m really crossing my fingers that the 35% independents are Black anarchists and the 20% of the democrats are Black people, otherwise we are screwed. I don’t trust white people with guns unless they are John Brown. Also, of course republicans believe in taking arms because nothing is more oppressive to white people than constantly being told that they are equal to everyone else because that means they can no longer benefit from other people’s suffering. We aren’t even there yet, but they are worried that all this talk of equality and learning about the truth about where they got all their fancy things is going to get us there. They will not stand for that. They will not wait more than two days for Amazon to deliver their dildo, all because Amazon’s predominantly Black and Brown warehouse workers want “rights”. They will burn all this to the ground before they let that happen. So if you are a Black person, I’m begging you to get a gun right now and learn how to shoot it because worst case scenario you will be able to protect yourself when things unravel and best scenario you’ll just be a badass with a Glock. Being a badass with a Glock is our ancestors wildest dream, just ask Harriet, Malcolm X, Assata, and the Black Panthers.
Biden doesn’t care about the planet either
The supreme court has been doing a lot of heavy lifting this week to help the capitalists create a capitalist theocracy because the current capitalist fake democracy is becoming unstable. I do, however, want to take this moment to remind y’all that they are able to get away with this because the democrats ain’t shit. Yes, the supreme court is not allowing the EPA to limit greenhouse gas emissions, but Biden doesn’t really seem to care about greenhouse gas emissions either because his team just revealed a proposal that would open up drilling in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico. This is the same Biden who told everyone that they should peacefully protest after the government just did the most violent thing which is telling us we don’t own our own bodies. Biden is swimming in the same nasty oily ocean that the supreme court is swimming in. The only difference is that he cleans himself up with a towel so no one knows where he has been.
That’s it for the news, but don’t go yet
I know this issue has been very light on jokes and it’s because I honestly just didn’t want to be funny. So if you are looking for a good laugh, this really tickled me.
If you’d like to learn more about police abolition, read everything from Mariame Kaba and Ruth Gilmore.
I’m really trying to start an anarchist late night show so please tip me, become a patron, or become a paying subscriber below if you can so you don’t have to settle for John Oliver. Yes, you can tell him I said this. He is funny, but he has never advocated for abolition once and I have a problem with that.
