In this article for @redblacknotes, Jackson Purdie examines how the Australian and New Zealand capitalist states introduced industrial relations reform in response to militant class struggle and its implications for anarchists today. redblacknotes.com/2026/09/03…

New on @redblacknotes from @sarah_missen:
“RAFFWU members have thought outside the box and worked around the constraints of the Fair Work Act but are now set to be punished for daring to organise themselves.”

Anti migrant protests becoming a global phenomenon as the far right matures
Important new article on responding to March for Australia. #AntiFascist

Important article on @redblacknotes imo
"Where did the success of March for Australia come from? What does the far right look like in Australia today, and how does it mobilise? And most importantly, how should we prepare to confront them in the future?"

New on @redblacknotes: Sam Murray asks ‘How much is the planet likely to warm this century?’
“…as the worst cases have improved, the best cases have deteriorated… We are fucked, but we can still fight over how fucked.”

New on @redblacknotes — @correnterosso tackles the Greens militarism, and the failure of socialist organisations in Australia to “address the fundamental political questions of how revolutionaries should relate to the capitalist state” & ‘defence’ policy.

Why do anarchists object to electoral projects - even when run by self-described revolutionaries, like those in Victorian Socialists? And what is our alternative?

Pure syndicalist cope launching a website with almost the same name and literally using the same font as @redblacknotes
Sorry that platformism is the dominant class struggle anarchist tendency in Australia now 🫡

Its positive interest in 'organised' anarchism is growing, though I have my own misgivings about aspects of 'especifismo'. In the meantime I pretty much endorse all of Dan's comments (with some reservations re the Malatesta part - the critique of Italian ancom is good, however).

A good critique of some fuzzy analysis, particularly around class, which has crept into the work of those who identify with the label especifist. I think it stems from wanting to avoid anything that could be interpreted as ‘Marxism’.
Disagree with Dan’s take on Malatesta though!

Geelong Anarchist Communists remain committed to spreading anarchist ideas and fighting for socialism.
While Warrnambool City Council attempted to suppress political discussion, it only highlighted the importance of developing radical politics in regional Australia.
Despite their attempts, @WarrnamboolCity did not manage to shut down Saturday's intro to anarchism workshop. @geelongancoms redblacknotes.com/2025/02/09…

My little report on Warrnambool City Councils freak out over anarchism. Despite cancelling the venue last minute, our comrades managed to hold the meeting and make a number of contacts!

This is an attack on freedom of speech and organisation - Warrnambool council is dictating what it's residents can and can't be politically involved in.
We are committed to holding the workshop, which will now take place on the Civic Green on Saturday 8 February starting at 2pm

This evening we were informed that @WarrnamboolCity cancelled our Introduction to Anarchism workshop tomorrow via an article in the @WboolStandard
According to The Standard, the centre claims we did not disclose the intentions of our booking, which is completely false.
