“The reason anarchists like direct action is because it means refusing to recognise the legitimacy of structures of power. Or even the necessity of them. Nothing annoys forces of authority more than trying to bow out of the disciplinary game entirely and saying that we could just do things on our own. Direct action is a matter of acting as if you were already free.” —David Graeber

“I’ve come to believe that D.I.Y. collective action — specifically, the punk variety — might be our only way through the darkness...."  

“Your homework is to stop canceling each other, find out about punk, and get laid while you’re at it.... Punk isn’t a hairstyle; it’s getting your friends together to make useful stories outside approved systems. And it’s still happening right now, all over the world....”  

“So, how can all of us access the punk? Get in the room with other people (more D.I.Y. and I.R.L.). Embrace the analog, which can’t be surveilled by artificial intelligence. Reach out to unexpected, even problematic...allies, with different but compatible definitions of justice. Luckily, kindness looks the same to most of us. And as you start making that useful thing, you might lock eyes with the person working at your side, and maybe this time you won’t flinch. The walls of identity crumble in the face of our greatest human strength: empathy.” —John Cameron Mitchell

“The feeling that nothing you do will change anything has a cumulative deadening effect on people, a state of inertia sets in. This has been palpable in Serbia in the past, but it feels like a kind of psychological rewiring is going on, a rewriting of the narrative. The students have given people permission to hope again.” —Natasha Tripney
