Israel's pager attacks were one year ago today. This piece by Jake Romm still resonates, particularly after Trump's "designation" of "antifa" as a "domestic terror organization."

@jakeromm.bsky.social's review of this Schlockumentary™ has surfaced again in the wake of the recent Ritchie Torres interview, and it's incredibly well-written and insightful

"Ross finds in the precapitalist rhythms of the paysans the seeds of a postcapitalist ecology." @jakeromm.bsky.social‬ doesn’t put peasantries aside in NYRA no. 46/47. nyra.nyc/articles/to-...

going back through some algeria photos I haven't looked at yet: year of the snake, millennium of the desert

I found it very inspiring to hear Jake talk about the amazing work the Hind Rajab Foundation is doing to document the war crimes of IDF soldiers and pressure governments around the world into taking legal action against them

Went on TrueAnon to talk about the @hindrajabfoundation.be & the global fight to hold IDF soldiers legally accountable for the genocide in Gaza. www.patreon.com/posts/episod...

There's no statute of limitations for war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide, and the prosecutor’s Sword of Damocles will hang over perpetrators for a lifetime. For those demanding justice for Gaza, the message is clear: let a thousand prosecutions bloom.

For @theintercept.com, I argue that a laser focus on the ICC and ICJ misunderstands and overemphasizes their role in achieving justice for Israel's atrocities in Gaza. It also misses what's happening in national courts as more states launch homegrown investigations and prosecutions.

From Issue V: Kate Wagner (@mcmansionhell.bsky.social) on the art and life of Yugoslavian painter France Michelič, known for his depictions of folk deity Kurent. Stamped by the 20th century's trials, he became a searching interpreter of nature, ritual, and death. proteanmag.com/2025/07/25/b...

the course will build on this essay for @parapraxismag.bsky.social—together we'll update/expand the analysis, always with an eye towards understanding both the continuities btw Zionism & exterminationisms past as well as what is frighteningly unique about the present

Here is the course description: We'll cover texts by Adorno, Horkheimer, Sayegh, Bonefeld, Abu el-Haj, Amery, Diner, as well testimony from the genocidaires themselves (all subject to change as the needs or desires of the course evolve through discussion)

+ an intro on how reading their studies on anti-Semitism & racial prejudice in the 1940s must reckon with what Adorno calls their “Eiertanz” of the neither/nor to naive assimilationism & Zionism (w/ a shout out to @jakeromm.bsky.social at the end) Link: open.substack.com/pub/jamescra...

Reminder to read this stellar paper by @jakeromm.bsky.social on the ties between zionism and nazi ideology (amongst other things), easily one of the most insightful, carefully crafted and intellectually challenging thing I've read in the last few years. www.parapraxismagazine.com/articles/ele...

Jake wrote about whiny Zionist propaganda "film" (screenshots from Twitter) October Height-te

The paranoid fantasies of ‘October 8’: defector.com/the-paranoid...

A very good review, and this point is absolutely key to what is going on in the minds of rabid Israel defenders

For @defector.bsky.social, I wrote about the Zionist propaganda film, “October 8,” paranoia, Adolf Eichmann, and why these people are all obsessed with their phones. This was—even leaving content aside—one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen in my life. defector.com/the-paranoid...

Important article here. "The phone screen and the social media feed together have a symptomatic primacy here: Together they are the perfect medium through which to both channel and deepen the violent paranoia at the core of the Zionist psyche." Read and share and #FreePalestine

“It is as if Gaza does not exist at all”

“October 8 is not so much a film as it is a way to experience being trapped in a room with someone as they show you posts on their phone.”
