  • More buzzwords than a terrible business seminar

    My favorite is when they say stuff like 'It happened in so-called Oregon.' So-called indeed.

  • Must listen podcast

    IGD covers a wide range of self-organized and autonomous movements. They call it like it is and don’t fall for the corporate funded ngo manufactured stories that get wide coverage on the left. This is the show we need and a model for others to follow.
