A new magazine from RU Sirius: The Thresher-Flailing at Current Events: ‘Welcome to The Thresher, a print political journal available through Disticor and Last Gasp. When we started working on The Thresher, we expressed our intentions to potential writers thusly; “Everybody knows that the next political paradigm is post- ideological, an unpredictable hybrid of all the influences on human thought and behavior. The smartest among us are looking for interesting ways to crossbreed left, right and center; mainstream and subculture; individual liberty and community; straight and queer; spirituality and critical intelligence; high technology and zero emissions; speed and permanence; rebellion and problem-solving; Caucasian and everybody else; ad infinitum. We’re not talking dialectics. We’re talking complexity. The Thresher will attempt to navigate its way through the tangled mess that is early 21st Century politics.”

Well, things have changed. For the moment, the only realistic goal seems to be to preserve the freedom to dissent, to question authority, to express even a bit of skepticism. In the words of George Clinton (the only Clinton that matters); “Think. It ain?t illegal yet.” We hope y’all find a few things here worth thinking on.’ [via boing boing]
