Barricades PAC
Abolition, Universal Healthcare & Education, Human Rights, Empire’s End, Socialism.
Before you give, demand everything.
This is not the time for compromise
Demand that the government fight for you
Why Barricades PAC?
Revolutionaries have used barricades for centuries to push back & defend against tyranny.
When a community puts up a barricade they are going on the righteous offensive by setting up strong, defensive blocks on encroaching state & corporate violence.
If elections are to retain any relevance at all in the American 21st century it will be because a vanguard decides to demand that their time, dollars & votes only go to those who fight with us, tirelessly, & without compromise.
Politics is personal, & fighting is not a metaphor. Demand more & do not accept moral compromises.
Everyone wants your vote and your dollar. Every election is supposed to be crucial. Yet, even “progressives” and “socialists” end up funding apartheid, apologizing to police, and putting up no resistance to imperialism either abroad or domestically. We don’t need to engage with politicians beyond making clear demands of them and scaring them into keeping them.
If you’re tired of giving of yourself while elected do nothing for you or your neighbors, and if you’re ready to insist on standards for your conditional support, join us. We will only give support to candidates who commit clearly & loudly to supporting the issues you care about
The necessary struggle
“If you dare to struggle, you dare to win. If you dare not struggle then goddamnit you don’t deserve to win. Let me say peace to you if you’re willing to fight for it.”
—Fred Hampton
