| Re: <nettime> Manifestos, Twitter, and Action Against The Autocrats. |
Hi Nettime,
I had a large response to the Twitter thread I posted. It does
seem that there is a distinct appetite for analysis of how
populist autocracy is operating, and (encouragingly) appetite
to take on board tool-kits to form resistant responses.
The thread has been reworked into an article for ByLine Times,
available here:
https://bylinetimes.com/2020/07/30/johnson-cummings-are-waging-war-on-the-british-state/
Whether this is the start of wider engagement, or of the de-natureing of resistant rhetoric into media product is to be seen. It appears to read well, but I have yet to analyse precisely which bits of the text have been excised, and what effect that may have.
Either way, again, I hope it helps!
Best Regards,
James
