Escalation and Orientation

Posted on 2024/05/27 - 2024/05/27 by bbnews

Let’s strive to deepen the political horizons of this moment as much as the tactics.

The arrival of the “student intifada” on the political scene has captured the news cycle, inspired a lot of us, and—as these things often do—given a lot of people a rude awakening as to what the police are really all about. However…people have been “radicalized” before, yet the forces against which they fought remain dominant as ever generations later. What would it take to for us to learn from and build upon the liberation struggles of the past without merely reenacting them?

STATEMENT FROM 12 OF 61 RICO CO-DEFENDANTS: Anarchism Must Not Be Criminalized

Posted on 2023/11/10 - 2023/11/10 by bbnews

This statement was written before the Al-aqsa Flood, during which Palestinian fighters broke through the fence around the open-air prison known as the Gaza strip in 29 locations. We condemn Israel in the strongest terms, & support the liberation of the Palestinian people. We know that the same weapons and tactics that have been and continue to be used to colonize Palestine have been and continue to be used to colonize Turtle Island, as we can see in the GILEE Program (Georgia International Law Enforcement Exchange) where the IDF (Israeli Defense Force) soldiers share “best practices” with police in Georgia. The proposed  Cop City [in Atlanta] will be the military base from which the occupation of Atlanta is furthered, and we oppose their progression of the genocidal project  known as the United States.

Week One: a note from the BB!news editorial group

Posted on 2023/10/01 - 2023/10/01 by bbnews

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

Bash Back News is an aggregate of info, analysis, critique, and cummuniques from queer anarchists and our fellow travelers. Admins are not representatives of any extant group and make self-interested editorial and publishing decisions accordingly. The Bash Back phantasm has always been multi-tendriled. Open debate among our dearest comrades welcome.
