UNDERSTANDING REPRESSION AND COUNTER-REPRESSION
by Unity of Fields
Full article: unityoffields.org/counter-repression
This week, the fascist counterinsurgency against the international anti-imperialist, anti-zionist movement escalated to a new phase. It is more important than ever that this movement prepares for a strong counter-repression strategy and studies up on ongoing and historical counterinsurgencies.
In recent days and months, the imperialist ruling class has designated Samidoun Palestinian Political Prisoner Solidarity Network as a “terrorist” entity, threatened Unity of Fields with a "domestic terrorism" investigation, raided the house of Electronic Intifada journalist Asa Winstanley in the UK, detained other journalists including Richard Medhurst, Richard Lofreddo, and Scott Ritter, restricted the 🔻 emoji and the word “zionist” on Meta, banned Resistance News Network in the EU, martyred Palestinian resistance leader Yahya Sinwar, and more.
The purpose of all this repression is to scare us, to intimidate us, to break our souls and crush our spirits. The imperialist ruling class is cracking down on our movement because we are strong, because we outnumber them, because they are paper tigers.
Let repression breed more resistance!
