Inspired by the Bash Back! News of yesteryear (and by the current counter-information eco-system) we launched bbnews.noblogs.org a week ago. In that time, we’ve been delighted to receive and transmit several submissions, including some direct responses to previous posts. We’re excited to see a rejuvenation of long-form dialogue between various queer constellations of the anarchist galaxy.
We also received some texts we have not published, namely a pair of death threats related to masking and a handful of statements (some pretty incriminating to specific individuals) about the dread-cutting incident at the convergence earlier this month.
As stated, this website is not the mouthpiece of any organization, and the editorial group makes self-interested decisions about what to publish. This means not posting statements calling for the mass murder of our friends, spreading deliberate misinformation, appealing to some non-existent authority, legally jeopardizing individuals, or (worst of all) boring us.
More importantly, self-interested publishing means putting out things we’re excited to transmit to the world. Those of us involved in this project also live full lives, rich with other endeavors to pour our energy into. We don’t publish out of obligation or demand. We’ll continue to accept submissions that advance the conversations we’re interested in or, at the very least, entertain us.
And so, dear readers, some things we’d be excited to see:
- night games
- juicy cummuniques claiming clandestine attacks
- illicit orgies in prohibited places
- discursive faggotry
- high-brow theory
- low-brow praxis
- queer criminality
- names and addresses of our enemies (kidding!)
- looting sprees
- beautiful vandalism
- t4t missed connections (where t=t-word)
- bloc-couture
- rituals to summon the destructive forces of the underworld
- fresh TRANSlations
- profanity-laced screeds
- regional convergence announcements
