Description
We’re an international collective of activists, artists, writers, designers, musicians, philosophers, poets, punks and wild hearts.
Join us as we take down Big Tech. Clean up the toxic areas of our mental environment. Reverse the upward flow of wealth. Punish every corporation that betrays the public trust. Hold corrupt politicians accountable. Wake up a thoughtless, complacent culture. Fight the psychological takeover of the all-seeing advertising–surveillance industry. Quit following and retweeting . . . start thinking, speaking and acting for ourselves.
Our aim is to catalyze a sudden unexpected moment of truth, a stunning reversal of perspective — a global mind shift — from which the corpo-consumerist forces never fully recover.
Join us . . . and fuck up every system that keeps you from living your dreams.
AB 164: The Big Ideas of 2023
The question’s as blunt as the times are dire. Are we winning or losing the planetary endgame?
In our year-end issue we argue both sides, with our most optimistic, bright-eyed inclinations colliding in the middle with our bleakest and grimmest intuitions.
It’s a stitching-together of two warring tendencies. Truth is, neither one is sufficient for our salvation: to win the endgame, we desperately need both.
To stave off extinction, we’re going to have to muster both the courage to face the harshest truths about our reality and the guts to imagine a radically different one — and then see it through.
So summon all the chutzpah you can muster. It’s going to be the match of the millennium.
