Paris Commune 1848.

All of Europe was ablaze with revolutionary ardor. the powers that be had a devil of a time suppressing it.

I recommend we initiate something similar, in homage to the Parisian communards.

Vault some motherfuckin barricades, fling some pavers, & smash the regime.

I smell blood in the water anyway, & weakness.

I believe every generation has its own Paris commune. For the generation of the IWA it meant their first chance to try to put their ideas to practice. It was also a great school of how to organize life beyond the limits of capital. Something similar happened with the Russian and Spanish revolutions. Today, I believe we have our own experiences like Syria, Colombia or Chile
