On July 22, 1916, someone set off a bomb during the pro-war “Preparedness Day” parade in San Francisco. As a result, 10 people died and 40 were injured. A jury convicted two labor leaders, Thomas Mooney and Warren Billings, based on the false testimony of Martin Swanson, a detective with a long history of interfering in San Francisco strikes. Not surprisingly, only anarchists were suspected in the bombing. Swanson maintained constant surveillance and harassment of Mooney and Warren Billings, as well as Alexander Berkman & Emma Goldman. A few days after the bombing, they searched and seized materials from the offices of “The Blast,” Alexander Berkman and Emma Goldman’s local paper. They also threatened to arrest Berkman. Billings and Mooney ultimately served 23 years in prison for a crime they had not committed. Governor Edmund G. Brown pardoned them in 1961.
Billings and Mooney were both anarchists, and members of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW). As a young man in San Francisco, Tom Mooney published The Revolt, a socialist newspaper. He was tried and acquitted three times for transporting explosives during the Pacific Gas & Electric strike in 1913. Consequently, the cops already believed he was a bomber, prior to the Preparedness Day parade.
In 1937, Mooney filed a writ of habeas corpus, providing evidence that his conviction was based on perjured testimony and evidence tampering. Among this evidence was a photograph of him in front of a large, ornate clock, on Market Street, clearly showing the time of the bombing and that he could not have been at the bombing site when it occurred. He was finally released in 1939. Upon his release, he marched in a huge parade down Market Street. Cops and leaders of the mainstream unions were all forbidden from participating. An honor guard of longshoremen accompanied him carrying their hooks. His case helped establish that convictions based on false evidence violate people’s right to due process.
The Alibi Clock was later moved to downtown Vallejo, twenty-five miles to the northeast of San Francisco. A bookstore in Vallejo is named after this clock. On May 11, 2024, I did a reading there from my working-class historical novel, Anywhere But Schuylkill, during the Book Release Party for Roberta Tracy’s, Zig Zag Woman, which takes place at the time of the Los Angeles Times bombing, in 1910, when two other labor leaders, the McNamara brothers, were framed.
In 1931, while Mooney and Billings were still in prison, I. J. Golden persuaded the Provincetown Theater to produce his play, “Precedent,” about the Mooney and Billings case. Brooks Atkinson of the New York Times wrote, “By sparing the heroics and confining himself chiefly to a temperate exposition of his case [Golden] has made “Precedent” the most engrossing political drama since the Sacco-Vanzetti play entitled Gods of the Lightening… Friends of Tom Mooney will rejoice to have his case told so crisply and vividly.”
During the Spanish war against fascism (AKA the Spanish Civil War), many Americans volunteered to join the antifascist cause as part of the Abraham Lincoln Brigades. One of the battalions was named the Tom Mooney Machine-Gun Company. It was led by Oliver Law, a communist, and the first black man known to have commanded white U.S. troops.

To all the people who keep reporting my mutual aid posts for "spam", just know that my instance admins arent gonna listen to your bigotry and classism. You are just wasting your energy. If you dont want to see my mutual aid posts then go block me or cry about it. Mutual aid posts are not "spam" no matter the circumstance. Asking others for good faith and help in desperate situations should be met with love and support, not hatred and neglect.
If you truly want me to stop posting mutual aid posts, then why not donate to me so i dont have to ask anymore? I only ask because i am so genuinely desperately poor that i have to ask random strangers on the internet to donate money to me. I can't even reliably afford my own basic necessities like food and healthcare costs. Please donate so i dont have to ask anymore, thank you. Please choose kindness instead of hatred.
If u all could at least donate 20$ i could afford a decent amount of food off that alone, and if i could get multiple 20$ donations or even more amount i would be so greatful, i rlly need the money badly! and if u could donate 50$ or more i could hopefully get enough to afford new glasses or afford hrt!!!! but any amount would do! and i would also appreciate any amount of sharing, preferably off-platform (if u use bluesky, twitter, reddit, even threads, i would appreciate if u could spread the word on those platforms too, cus i rlly need the help and i would appreciate it a lot), but im also ok with u sharing it on-platform too, preferably through boosts but also through reposts if u wish, any help counts!!! pls and thank u for reading!!!! pls help me thank u!!!!!!!!
I still need money for food and hrt!! please share and donate!!! i need all the money i can get!!! i dont have a lot and rlly need the help!!! pls and thank u!!!! pls send help thx!!!!!
Please help me, i cant access my venmo funds, i dont know when the lastest i will be but all the funds i have in there are trapped until i can figure out how to extract them. Please donate to my cashapp or paypal until then. Please help me, i cant afford my bike now. Help. I need like 200$ extra now to afford a bike + essentials now that my funds are trapped. It's urgent.
It has come to my attention that more people keep reporting my mutual aid posts, i should redirect you to previous posts as i have been reported before and my instance admins take no action. I do not care if you think it is spam. I do not care if me posting mutual aid upsets you. I do not exist to make you comfortable. My safety comes over your comfort. You must be so privileged to believe that i deserve to deplatformed, that i should be silenced for asking others to help me get help for my desperate situation.
You must be so privileged to have never had to worry about having regular food on your table, to not have to lack basic necessities like transportation or healthcare.
Please be mindful of how your actions affect other people. People who post mutual aid posts are allowed to post them in ways that allow them to reach the maximum amount of people possible. That's the whole point of asking for mutual aid. You do it in a way so that others know of the situation and so they can donate to help.
I dont care of you think i use "too many hashtags" or that i post "too often", if you dont want to see my mutual posts you can just mute them or block me, nobody is forcing you to see them or donate to me. Im allowed to post to as many people as i need to in order to better my living condition to a basic standard of living.
I cant even imagine the level of privilege it takes to act this way towards impoverished people. And some of the people who report my posts claim to be "anarchists" as well. Literal hypocrisy. If you claim to be anarchist and you report good-faith mutual aid posts at all, you arent an anarchist, you are a poser pretending to be an anarchist. Real anarchists dont try to deplatform poor people asking others for help. Do better.
And by the way, i can see your reports. My instance admins send your reports to me. I know the kinds of stuff you are saying. I am genuinely so tired of the disrespect i have been receiving.
As ive said before, if you actually want me to stop posting mutual aid posts, then DONATE. Donate to me so i dont have to keep asking you all for money. I literally cannot afford even the most basic of necessities because i lack the money. I ask you all because it is out of desperation. If you want me to stop asking for mutual aid, then please, donate to me like 50$ per individual to speed this up! i dont get many donations and the big ones really do help a lot! i absolutely need the help! please!

Jonathan Chait is real mad that leftists aren't taking liberal shit anymore. I got the link from archive.is to avoid giving his BS any extra clicks. It's way longer than it needs to be. This paragraph caught my attention though because it's at least an attempt at clarifying what liberals see as leftism and why they're wrong (which is why they should shut the fuck up, because they have been proven so very fucking wrong, so often, and for so long):
I don’t want to bore you...
lol
by attempting the umpteenth definition of liberalism,
Funny how liberals hate defining liberalism
so I will lay out the distinction as briefly as possible. On economic questions, leftists have an overwhelming bias for state action over markets, while liberals are more selective.
This is incorrect. Leftists differ radically on how much state action over markets is needed. What unites leftists is the belief that we need democracy in economic realms as well as political ones. (I personally don't accept fully authoritarian MLs as leftists, one can debate that, but that's where I stand.) Liberals think it's just fine for us to have democratic politics but for most people to work for institutions that are run as dictatorships.
...On politics, liberals take very seriously notions of individual rights and universally applicable principles, while leftists tend to criticize political liberalism as a recipe for maintaining inequalities of power between the privileged and the oppressed.
Sort of true, but Chait tellingly leaves out the substance of the leftist critique, the reason why they think that political liberalism is a recipe for maintaining inequality, to wit: the lack of democracy in most people's workplaces. If economic power is concentrated while political power is distributed, then inevitably political power will become concentrated as well. Because money is power.
Anyway, Chait hates "Solidarity" the book and he also hates solidarity the concept. Of course he gets paid to represent left-of-center thought at major USA publications. Feel free to discuss your disgust for this type of guy further in replies.
