Hello comrades!

subMedia is asking for some help...

While this is a huge task for one person, many hands make light work! If you know of an Anarchist Film Festival near you please reach out on either this thread or DM and let us know!

Hello Fedi friends!

I just published a blog post on my site inspired by the #NOWpage movement - recapping highlights from June and July (so far).

It was a nice opportunity to revisit the generosity of the Fediverse in helping with my promo video.

A tiny excerpt:

"These days I’m finding a lot of joy and hope in the Fediverse, feeling its full potential. I’m hoping to recruit more people in this 'rebel alliance' standing up to Big Tech."

Before you buy on amazon, check if the product-company has their own website and order it there.

This way the shop gets the full price, and corporations have less investment.

Have a great weekend you all. 😊

“We are talking about technologies that are trying to subvert democratic rule, trying to entrench surveillance, and about a government that uses surveillance technology against its citizens,” EFF’s Saira Hussain told Prism. https://prismreports.org/2025/07/10/surveillance-state-in-u-s-is-far-worse-than-you-imagined/

Urgent support is needed for freedom fighters in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, after cops arrested 10 people outside an ICE detention facility.

The state has gone full-court press with ridiculous $10 million bails, bombastic terrorism charges and a media blitz to try and scare people away from resisting deportations.

A support committee of comrades, friends and loved ones of the defendants has formed and needs urgent funds for legal fees and expenses like rent and child support. Please spread amongst your networks and give generously. Our movement is only as strong as our support for our prisoners!!

Slow down on building power plants for all those new #AI datacenters, report warns - https://www.theregister.com/2025/07/10/us_datacenter_growth/ "Projections are likely exaggerated, a new analysis from an environmental group says" - of course they are, it's all based on a bubble...

Will people PLEASE stop talking about the "Tax payer's union"/Curia poll as if it is real?

The TPU is an #AtlasNetwork front. People disagree on how they cook their poll, and they probably use all the dirty tricks together.

The pertinent bit is that they've always been an outlier. They're trying to be inaccurate.

Instead of talking about how right wing party is up or left wing party is down in the Curia poll, the story is that their propaganda is working.

Removing a news outlet from a government media list because its reporter caught a U.S. attorney claiming he lived in a boarded up house to satisfy residency requirements is almost as petty as it is unconstitutional.

US attorney John A. Sarcone III should reverse this ridiculous order before New York tax payers have to foot the bill for a First Amendment lawsuit.
