The Relentless Suffocation of our Community Spirit and Radical Selves. By Marc 
Garrett.

This text reflects on the sacrifice of Palestine Action hunger strikers in UK 
prisons, who are protesting military ties with Israel. It contrasts the ideal 
of Christmas compassion with global injustice, arguing that societal 
complacency suffocates our radical spirit. Drawing on Peter Linebaugh’s “The 
Incomplete History of May Day,” it connects environmental (“Green”) and 
workers’ (“Red”) struggles as one unified fight for justice. Similarly, the 
DIWO essay asserts that ecological and social justice are inseparable. In 2025, 
we stand at a precipice: we must reclaim our history, reject oppressive 
systems, and choose collective, urgent resistance to avoid a future of fascism 
and ecological collapse.
