Meta Anarcho-Media Suggestions

34 Upvotes

Hey friends. The list of media resources on the side bar and the wiki here is out of date and I'm willing to take on the labor of updating it. But I would appreciate your help.

What podcasts are you listening to?

Which YouTubers are you subscribed to?

Which streamers are you watching?

Who is out there making anarchist media?

What are your favorite zine distros?

Where do you get your anarchist news?

Are YOU an anarchist content creator? Share your stuff here please (if you want to share it attached to your reddit account - if not you can send me a dm with your links)

I've curated a fairly extensive list on my own but I know that I don't have every thing.

It would be especially cool if it isn't all English language either.

Internet activism is not enough

305 Upvotes

I say this with much love to the modern anarchist movement and to my fellow anarchists of all tendencies, from egoists to platformists, but internet activism is not enough, I know many of you are involved in organization, but I also know many of you are not. This may be because you live in a rural area or are young, but if you are not either of those things I think it is time to look into organizing. The harsh truth is that posting about anarchist movements means little if you do not seek organization yourself. Food Not Bombs has dozens and dozens of chapters across the US, most large cities have at least a few anarchist or AFA groups. I know too many anarchists, people who I consider friends, I have nothing but love for them, but they do not take the opportunity to organize even when it is right in their face, because while I do love them, to them, and unfortunately to many anarchists, anarchism is seen as a hobby. Reading theory, debating ideology and posting old pictures from Spain doesn't mean anything if you are not taking action when you have opportunity.

I recommend looking into Food Not Bombs, that is who I organize with, as well as various other local organizations across the US. The main distinction between anarchists nowadays is not between left and post left, not between Platform and Synthesis, the division is between anarchists who do things when they have the opportunity and those who do not. An anarchist who lives in New York or Boston or Seattle or Chicago or Houston who refuses to organize presents more of a threat to the anarchist movement than any ideological debate could. Internet activism is not enough, do not let anarchism become just a hobby.

groups pictured in order:

Filler Distro

Black Rose Anarchist Federation

Anarchist Federation (UK)

Food Not Bombs

Crab Anarchist Collective

Space City Anarchist Organization

Northeast Anarchist Union

Fuck a Permit, Reclaim the Streets: A report back of the 2026 Dyke March in so-called Portland, OR

Upvotes

On July 18th 2026, some anarchists and fellow travelers answered a call to show up in a bloc contingent at the Portland Dyke March to combat the march's liberal co-optation and rebuild our collective memory of what pride is really about. What began as a small, banner-carrying group amidst the parade became a larger contingent who found it within us to collectively break the cycle of useless, permitted protests.

a political rage playlist about refusing obedience and surviving the machinery

hi guys! i made a political playlist that begins in exhaustion rather than triumph: being governed, watched, overworked and repeatedly told that systemic violence is merely unfortunate administration

it moves from indian indie and political hip-hop through feminist punk, anti-capitalist music, afrobeat and quieter songs about preserving one another after the spectacle of revolt ends

survival of the loudest
comrade, pass the aux

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4EfxWU0FGgQF5w7ttmcFQt?si=882b7e3cbff64df1

i’d love anarchist and anti-authoritarian recommendations that aren’t limited to traditional punk - especially folk, indie, electronic, hip-hop and music outside the anglosphere

internet activism is fine actually, especially if that's what your capable of.

0 Upvotes

we need to stop treating "internet activism" as though there isn't valid and necessary work being done every day by people from their homes. we are so dismissive of the internet as a means and method of communication, as though that isn't how most people communicate now, where most media is produced and shared.

pew research shows that for the past few years a little over half of U.S. adults get news from social media.

if your suggestion for activism is "go outside and organize" without recognizing that there's a problem for people who aren't able to then we're just being dismissive and demeaning.

what are you doing to make sure that your organizing is accessible? because if the answer is "nothing" then this is not a problem for the people who aren't getting outside. they have nowhere to go and that isn't their fault. that's a lack in the organizing that anarchists are so happily crowing about how doing "organizing" is the only way forward toward anarchy.

people do the things they're able in the spaces where they feel welcome when they have enough information about how to do so.

sup wichita (and surrounded places)

there were three people at the first ever meeting and that was cool. i'm still waiting on confirmation from the library for the reservation but if you're not doing anything from 3:30-5:30 on Saturday you should come hang out. we'll be at the Advanced Learning Library - Keeney Stevens Board Room

also i made a little website: https://mcegbc.neocities.org/

information on the readings will be updated when we start new pieces. we'll be starting anarchy by errico malatesta.

we also will not get through the whole thing in one session so don't worry if you don't finish the whole thing. the website also has links to audiobook versions of the reading as well links to the epub and pdf versions of the pamphlet.

everyone is welcome, even if you haven't read the reading because we'll read it together.

looking forward to seeing you!

New User Democracy feels like an illusion

34 Upvotes

We're told democracy means "rule by the people." But does it?

I don't think so.

In this country... you already know how messed up it is. If you go against people with power, you might get silenced. Education has become a business. Comedians are getting arrested for making jokes, but criminals are free (if they're rich). Justice is for sale. The law is strict for the poor and flexible for the rich. The government expects accountability from its people but rarely holds itself accountable.

Many people are supporting "Sonam Wangchuk" by posting stories on social media and joining protests. But in the end, it feels like peasants giving suggestions to a king about how to run his kingdom, while the king doesn't care and will do whatever he wants.

The future I see is this: people will eventually get tired of realizing that their efforts mean nothing. And, over time, the change that everyone is fighting so hard for will once again become just a dream.

I hope I'm proven wrong.

“The paramount issue is the character and integrity of the movements we are building. We must confront, vilify, and destroy traitors at every opportunity; deal with them as the dehumanized vipers that they are; instill ‘the greater fear.’ The political terms must always be clear: discredit and destroy all traitors.” – Sekou Odinga, Kuwasi Balagoon, Judy Clark, David Gilbert, Silvia Baraldini
