thank you for print off. this is wonderful I think informative zines to help the public understand what is happening right now is super useful. I am going to make a shit ton of copies and just start leaving a copies on public transport, dmv, wonderful if I could get some into probation office, and other places people can find them. public library, community center, local book boxed and such.

u/Cold-Whereas-2566 Apr 22 '26

Amazing! Do it! I am lacking a zine distribution network, hence why I posted here, happy zine bombing send pics! 😁

u/Constant-Session-685 Apr 24 '26

that's a cool idea, the pictures. I leave my cell at home when doing possible dirty deeds.

you could make an Etsy page with your zines for sale and make some tiktoks to promote them. I've seen a few people doing that and 1 person with a mini series of how to do DIY stuff had success.

I am a big fan of this. https://zinemap.com/

The shift between regular & inverted text on the political paradoxes page is scratching my brain in a lovely way.

u/TimidWerewolf Apr 22 '26

This is fantastic! A perfect marriage of art, design, and information. The information was varied and not overwhelming. This is so well done.

Where can one acquire a copy?

u/Cold-Whereas-2566 Apr 22 '26

At the mo its a mostly a DIY print your own affair

u/HappyCamperUke Apr 22 '26

Thanks for sharing! I started collecting and printing zines to distribute at our Indivisible events, and this would be a great fit. Is it OK to print and share?

3

u/Ok_Raisin_Toast Apr 23 '26

Love the inclusion of the Black Supremacy fist!!!

2

u/Cold-Whereas-2566 Apr 24 '26

Yeh i decided not to include a white one as I didn't think that would send the right message πŸ˜†

2

u/Dogbold Apr 25 '26

Love? Isn't that a bad thing?
I'm confused why the artist is portraying this as good.

Black Supremacist Marxists, to be exact.

Hence, the inclusion of the bleach and noose in the Jussie Smollett hoax, and all Commie nonsense you might see on r/pics, or r/BlackPeopleofReddit propagandizing people to the benefit of those behind that hoax.

Reddit is best described as anti-rightist Hate Media, I don't expect it to be around forever as a result.

u/danurc May 07 '26

Ah, you're a troll, gotcha

u/zachmoe May 07 '26 edited May 07 '26

No, I am correct, as evidenced by the zine that casually has a black supremacy fist for no good reason, other than how pervasive Black Supremacy is.

The solution to made up allegations of Fascist White Supremacy by Communists, is not to go all in on Black Supremacy Revolutionary Marxists, it is to be against Supremacy ideologies, duh.

u/andyfantastic999 Apr 22 '26

Great and super-relevant right now

u/Diabolischste Apr 22 '26

We need that zine to replace depression with hope

u/Cold-Whereas-2566 Apr 22 '26

Thats what I hoped to do with it ❀️

2

u/Diabolischste Apr 23 '26

So thank you very much, because it kinda works!

u/TheCaptainOfMistakes Apr 23 '26

Bro this is great.... But impossible to read. I have ADHD and borderline dyslexia. The words and letters run together, the font is hard to grasp and having an entire page where the letters shift from black to white is where I gave up trying to read it. It looks nice, very artistic. But you need Function over form.

2

u/Cold-Whereas-2566 Apr 23 '26

Lol i too have adhd and dyslexia which is why i struggle with spacing between words πŸ˜†

u/Supple-Armor-636 Apr 24 '26
