I kind of hate that anon where they're like "oh you focus on US and Europe too much to claim to talk about international stuff". Besides relying on your volunteers to dig up stuff when they can, the policies of the US and Europe translate to affecting the international world. Tech capitalism from the West is fueling the genocide in the Congo in Africa. Military imperialism from the West is fueling genocide in the Levant area of West Asia. The West often ends up being an unremovable part of international problems either directly or indirectly, so the West is international by force.
Good points all!

Anonymous asked:
love how the "international" name of this blog seems to only mean "u.s. & europe" (and only if antifascist action in those places are being done for causes within u.s./europe)
Hi there Anon,
We’re an international anti-fascist social media collective in three senses of the term:
1) Our members are in Belgium, Canada, Germany, Greece, Netherlands, Sweden, Taiwan, and the US.
2) We try to cover antifa stuff internationally but of course being a volunteer-run project, we’re often limited to what our members are able to find out about, which in turn often limits us to stuff going on in regions are members are familiar with & in languages they understand.
If you’re writing to us today because you know of some really good antifa bloggers/accounts from other regions or in other languages that we should check out and potentially invite to join our collective, why don’t you leave them in the comments below?
If you’re writing to us today to condemn our project for “not being international enough” to meet your lofty standards, please let us know in the comments all the amazing and TRULY international anti-fascist work you’ve done, so we can learn from your superior ways.

ALERTA! ALERTA! UTRECHT ANTIFASCISTA! Zaterdag!
Antifascist prisoner Krystina “Kita” Charankova was released from prison in Belarus earlier this month, after serving years for the “crimes” of opposing the invasion of Ukraine and being critical of Belarus’ dictatorship. The International Anti-Fascist Defence Fund has helped her to find her feet and get re-established now that she’s returned to the world. Full story here.
