Abeng, a short-lived newspaper, offers a window into Jamaica's revolutionary currents in the late 60s. Acting as a theoretical nexus between communism and black power, it also served as a means of practical communication between different currents of class struggle on the island

This essay was weird, wonderful, and fun. Really glad the first issue of Heatwave is online.

Dams & Deluge: on communist niche construction This article ran in @htwvmag.bsky.social issue #1. Infinite thanks to the friends who provided encouragement during the writing process, and to the wonderful Heatwave editors. More is on the way, hopefully. heatwavemag.info/magazine/iss...

“Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi was a Palestine liberation activist from Seattle, Washington in the USA who was murdered by the Israeli Occupation Forces at a Palestinian demonstration in the West Bank in late 2024.”

Why is Israel invading Gaza again? To commit as much genocide as they can get away with. What about Hamas? Just as US politicians say "crime" whenever they call for more state repression, today "Hamas" is simply the noise Israeli politicians make to mean "We're going to murder more Palestinians."

Joshua Clover's recent passing is a tremendous loss for the communist cause. Not only was he a close friend and mentor to many in our collective, but he was also exemplary in his clarity, breadth, and dedication. We aspire to be like Joshua as we navigate this world on fire.

While "The Commune Form" demonstrates "commitment to participating in and interpreting cycles of struggle in the unfolding ecological crisis," it mistakes the form of occupations for their function, occluding their inability to undertake communist measures. Reviewer F.P. writes:

Whose lives do we value? Whose deaths do we mourn? Whose do we take for granted? We honor the memory of Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi.

I finally got around to this excellent article from the first issue of @htwvmag.bsky.social. I highly recommend you read it, especially if you're searching for where to place your hope during these horrific times.

"In a sense, Mae Sot is an extension of that little sandbank, where the concept of 'nationality' is unsettled. It’s on the Thai side of the border, but it feels more like a Burmese city." -Wu Qin, in her dispatch on the Myanmar Civil War featured in Heatwave Issue 1

I cannot stress enough how clever and fun this essay is

When profit rate got low, I listened to Lady Gaga. When profit rate was better, I listened to Infest.

What can Lady Gaga, Kesha, and Katy Perry tell us about economic crisis, secular stagnation, and contemporary class imaginaries? Apparently, quite a lot! Jean Maro walks us through these lessons in "What Was Recession Pop?" in Heatwave Issue 1.

Looks like the entire dossier is out. This piece by Chuang was especially good.

"The imaginary crisis of the border must stumble into the crisis of capital everywhere. ... The chokepoints of intersections and freeways present the unfolding of tactical escalation to the transportation of abductees..." - Mapaches Clandestinxs w/ Cuauhtli

In our final dossier installment, Marco Túlio Vieira and Charles Jr. examine the impact of tariffs on Brazil's export sector. They pay especially close attention to agriculture and the triangular trade relation between Brazil, China, and the United States.

Jasper Bernes responds to Réalité's recent piece on the Miran Doctrine and Trump's tariffs. "Réalité is most credulous when it comes to the long-term implications of Miran's détournement of the global trading system." 👇 heatwavemag.info/dossiers/tar...
