'Itβs no surprise to discover that anarchist theorist Pyotr #Kropotkin was interested in #Christmas. In Russian culture, St. Nicholas (ΠΠΈΠΊΠΎΠ»Π°ΠΉ Π§ΡΠ΄ΠΎΡΠ²ΠΎΡΠ΅Ρ) was revered as a defender of the oppressed, the weak and the disadvantaged. Kropotkin shared the sentiments
[....] It was important, nonetheless, to detach the ethic that Christmas supported from the singularity of its celebration. Having a party was just that: extending the principle of mutual aid and compassion into everyday life was something else. In capitalist society, Christmas provided a space for special good behaviours. While it might be possible to be a Christian once a year, anarchism was for life...'

Gary Younge's new #documentary
'Angry, White and American'
https://youtu.be/khp7ihmNxec
if you read the UK Guardian you probably know the columnist Gary Younge, a black Brit living in the USA β now he's teamed up with UK Channel 4 and made this amazing 45min documentary about #TrumpWorld. Basically people who think it is only about race or only about class are not getting who the two mix together. Fantastic work.
Watch it now before the copyright police take it down.

Can anarchists ever work together, or is it better to just adopt this idea for one's self and find a way of working with others (even if not anarchists)?
'...The notion that Twitter couldnβt curb spam bots and Nazis or that Google couldnβt blacklist 4chan from its news overview is absurd. The issue is that, for revenue purposes, engagement with the informational equivalent of a leaking septic tank is indistinguishable from engagement with news sources that arenβt explicitly trying to deceive and defraud readers. The political Facebook ads that were allegedly purchased by the Russian government went into the same money vault as ads from Nike and Pepsi, and rape-threat tweets count just as much on Twitterβs quarterly earnings calls as announcements from NASA and Dennyβs. The increasingly toxic internet is working as designed by the companies that control most of it β corporate monoliths that hold the primary channels of digital information distribution and obligations to shareholders, not civil society..'
