<\/a><\/p>\nFor much of the year, the blog was mostly show notes for Yeah Nah Pasaran!<\/a>, but I managed to squeeze in a few other bits and pieces. So — also for the record — we spoke to the following during the course of the year:<\/p>\n \u2022 Emmi Bevensee \u2022 Joan Braune \u2022 Shane Burley \u2022 Seyward Darby \u2022 Zvi Dav \u2022 Alex DiBranco \u2022 Caterina Froio \u2022 Hannah Gais \u2022 Emily Gorcenski \u2022 Abner Hauge \u2022 Patrik Hermansson \u2022 Sarah Hightower \u2022 Nina Jankowicz \u2022 Greta Jasser \u2022 Laura Jedeed \u2022 Max Kaiser \u2022 Anastasia Kanjere \u2022 Shalini Kantayya \u2022 Annie Kelly \u2022 Samantha Kutner \u2022 Talia Lavin \u2022 Eviane Leidig \u2022 Alana Lentin \u2022 Graham Macklin \u2022 Shannon Foley Martinez \u2022 Charlotte Mears \u2022 David Neiwert \u2022 Roy (Paparoa<\/b>) \u2022 Antti Rautiainen \u2022 Stephanie Reist \u2022 Matthew Remski \u2022 Alexander Reid Ross \u2022 Kaz Ross \u2022 Shuddhabrata Sengupta \u2022 Evan Smith \u2022 Jeff Sparrow \u2022 Megan Squire \u2022 Spencer Sunshine \u2022 Emily Tamkin \u2022 Tom Tanuki \u2022 Elise Thomas \u2022 Louie Dean Valencia-Garcia \u2022 Kelly Weill \u2022 Jason Wilson \u2022<\/p>\n Thanks to our guests and thank you<\/em> for listening!<\/p>\n January<\/b> (5)<\/p>\n I kicked off the year by announcing that I gots stickers. In December, I still do, so if you’d like some, drop me a line via slackbastard[at]protonmail[dot]com. I also wrote about a CANCELLED!<\/a> gig organised by some local nazi metalheads: ‘Sad!’. As for YNP!, it began with an interview with Jeff Sparrow about his book Fascists Among Us: online hate and the Christchurch massacre<\/em><\/a> (Scribe, 2019); you can read a recent review by a member of Aotearoa Workers\u2019 Solidarity Movement here<\/a>.<\/p>\n February<\/b> (6)<\/p>\n I wrote about Tsar Vladimir chucking anti-fascists in jail<\/a> and took a closer look at some of the Australian users of the defunct neo-Nazi website Iron March<\/a>.<\/p>\n March<\/b> (6)<\/p>\n In addition to the usual, I published some antifa notes<\/a>.<\/p>\n April<\/b> (6)<\/p>\n Five years after they shambolically staggered onto the Australian political stage, I took a moment to ask ‘Reclaim Australia, Five Years Later : Where Are They Now?’<\/a>. I also paid tribute<\/a> to the Black Star kolektiv.<\/p>\n May<\/b> (6)<\/p>\n I republished \u2018The Australian Scene\u2019, Jack The Anarchist, Red & Black, No.5, April, 1973<\/a> by sadly-departed Sydney anarchist Jack Grancharoff<\/a> (1925–2016) and also done a Trot Guide update<\/a>.<\/p>\n June<\/b> (7)<\/p>\n June was a laddish month, in which I disclosed the location of the nazi groupuscule’s social centre in Rowville<\/a> and published some further details about its membership<\/a>. The lease on the property was subsequently CANCELLED! but the boys are eagerly preparing for the upcoming RaHoWa! by carrying on as they always have. I also published some further antifa notes<\/a>, being an attempt to make notes about antifa.<\/p>\n July<\/b> (7)<\/p>\n I published an updated version of A Brief Guide To The Australian Far Right<\/a>, took note of #j25antifa<\/a> and had another opportunity to yell at Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n August<\/b> (8)<\/p>\n ‘The Base’<\/a> got a guernsey this month (not that any body was paying much attention), Cucker Tarlson went full antifa<\/a>, I wrote a letter<\/a> to Nick Cave about CANCEL! culture and stuck my nose into Friendly Jordies ~versus~ Australian Unemployed Workers\u2019 Union<\/a>.<\/p>\n September<\/b> (7)<\/p>\n In September I wrote about Rehabilitating fascists : Lauren Southern, Sky News & Media Diversity<\/a> (and how the fascists among us and the Christchurch massacre can be only dimly glimpsed thru the rear-view mirror of NewsCorpse) and examined some of the daft material assembled by the NSW state government and its anti-radikal program Step Together<\/a>.<\/p>\n October<\/b> (5)<\/p>\n On a roll, I wrote about Rise2Peace & Step Together to combat ANTIFA!<\/a>.<\/p>\n November<\/b> (7)<\/p>\n I made a token, trump-related post<\/a> and looked at how local nazis progressed From Antipodean Resistance to the National Socialist Network<\/a>, which included naming Antipodean Resistance’s co-founders as being Matthew Baston and Douglas Paterson.<\/p>\n December<\/b> (7)<\/p>\n Well, there’s this post, but also some token anarchist notes<\/a>, more antifa notes<\/a> and a post about how some local semi-pro anti-semites got cucked<\/a>.<\/p>\n Finally, I done a coupla interviews this year (for Mont Icons<\/a> and Where’s My Jetpack?<\/a>) and published a few things elsewhere, including Galea in prison, Southern on TV: the state of the far right<\/a> (Overland).<\/p>\n Oh yeah. Like every other schmuck, I gotta Patreon<\/a>, which you’re welcome to throw money at if you’re so inclined. It contains a few score more posts about All The Things, and because one or three people have requested it, I plan on doing some (more) merch next year.<\/p>\n See also<\/em> : Blogging 2019 : A Summary<\/a> (December 27, 2019).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For the record, like … For much of the year, the blog was mostly show notes for Yeah Nah Pasaran!, but I managed to squeeze in a few other bits and pieces.
