Liberation, not Assimilation
Be gay, do crimes! https://fediverse.blog/~/YacCtPublications/liberation-not-assimilation/
They can also be generally socialist
Ideas for fun LGBT anarchist slogans to put on a banner for a pride parade?
Tech/online organisation question
What is a good way to store passwords for a group of people? Would a Signal group be a good way of doing this?
All of our members have now finished writing exams, and as such we are resuming normal operations and meetings.

The Youth Anarchist Collective of Cape Town wholly condemns the racist, far-right coup in Bolivia and stands with the people. We extend our support particularly to comrades in FEJUVE and the indigenous people of Bolivia fighting the coup.

The Roots of Turkish Fascism And the Threat It Poses
"This photo shows Turkish fascists marching with tiki torches three years before US fascists did the same thing in Charlottesville. This article explores the rise of Turkish authoritarianism, including an interview with Turkish anarchists."
With Erdoğan arriving in DC, we look at the roots of present-day fascism in Turkey to understand how Turkey came to invade #Rojava, identify potential comrades and fault lines within Turkish society, and recognize the future that awaits us if we don't stop the rise of fascism."

Instance recommendation request
Hahaha, fediverse.blog just went down with 502 bad gateway, so maybe its uptime is not very good anyway...
Instance recommendation request
Hello fediverse! As we tooted about earlier, we are looking for a federated blogging instance to sign up to in order to post our articles as they are written. Do you have any suggestions? So far we have seen fediverse.blog but obviously it is better to sign up to smaller instances. There is also cafe.sunbeam.city, but we are unsure if we should join there, since we are not all solarpunks. Thank you in advance!

Towards a Working Class Environmentalism for South Africa https://africasacountry.com/2019/10/towards-a-working-class-environmentalism-for-south-africa
Our banner made it into this article 
request for software recommendation
PS: on the subject of federated blogging applications, do you guys have any suggestions for good instances to sign up to?

One of the options that we thought of would be to publish individual articles using some kind of federated blogging platform, such as WriteFreely or Plume. Would this be a good idea? Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you!

Hello Fediverse! As we are going to begin setting up publishing for our newsletter and any other articles that we write, we were wondering if any of you knew of a good hosting solution. Firstly, we need to be able to upload PDFs, to upload our newsletter as a PDF. Secondly, it would be nice to be able to upload and read the articles individually too. They could be published separately as well, using an entire different software if that is better, too.

NATO supporting the use of chemical weapons
#Nato is blocking an investigation of the turkish invasion into #Rojava related to the use of chemical weapons. Nato is not just silence of war crimes, they activly support it.
...there're numerous claims from several different sources, showing that white phosphorus is used, which leads to burned scin and flesh.
#turkey
Die #NATO blockiert die Untersuchung des Einsatzes von Chemiewaffen der Türkei gegen ZivilistInnen in #Rojava. Damit verschweigt die NATO nicht nur Kriegsverbrechen der #Türkei, sondern leistet aktive Unterstützung.
#RiseUp4Rojava

verschiedene Quellen zeigen die Benutzung von weißem Phosphor, welches zu Verbrennung von Haut und Fleisch führte.
The vast majority of our members are now studying for exams, and as such we will be inactive for a month or so (both in social media and in real life). We have suspended meetings until December, when we will resume normal activity ✌️
