That something, a riot, a protest, a blog, anything. could be used by the right hardly seems to be an argument against it. My point, the point that I wanted to pick up on, is that we are living through a reinforcing downward spiral of austerity and security, in which each reinforces the other. The failures of each of these strategies only reinforces the other. Overcoming this will depend on developing new tactics, tactics developed from the quotidian acts of refusal and resistance, not from condemnation.unemployed negativityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01251742512967070290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31783628.post-39958437561011853132011-08-14T17:23:18.268-04:002011-08-14T17:23:18.268-04:00Thank you soooo much for posting this movie!
