“When the oppressor gives you two options, always take the third.”
-Meir Berliner, who died fighting against the SS at Treblinka Death Camp

“My flank is collapsing. My center is giving way. Situation excellent. I am attacking.”

Marne, World War I

Background

When I was tortured at Mansfield Corruptional in 2012 and 2013, I attempted resolution through the hierarchs’ alleged methods of redress, only to find (not surprising) that every single avenue for challenging the system’s wrongs proved totally useless. I exhausted every single remedy available to me and even contacted the office of Governor Kasich and the legislature’s oversight committee (called the Corrections Institution Inspection Committee), all to no avail. The torture continued.

Concluding that the fascist police state was operating beyond all limits and reserving to itself recourse to ideological profiling and torture, I saw the need for a kind of direct action approach to hold state terrorists accountable. I drafted “BLAST! Blog: A Proposal.”

Swain 2016 Campaign T-Shirts available now from PDX ABC

Crete:Incendiary attack against Armed Forces Officer’s Club in Rethymno

I’m Anarchist Prisoner Sean Swain, and I’m running for president. As far as I know, I’m the only presidential candidate who has been completely silenced by the FBI, forced to smuggle communications out of prison. And for good reason. My only campaign promise is to remain in office only for ninety days, with the expressed aim to abolish the United States, once and for all. Yep. I promise to take this motherfucker down.

The idea is, we can all conspire to highjack one election and toss swivelization on the trash-heap of history where it belongs.

Fuck hierarchy. We deserve better.

My stylish campaign t-shirts are currently on sale at the PDX ABC website. Just in case I lose the election to one of the corporate-party fascist fuckweasels, which is very likely if I don’t get your support, you can then use the t-shirt to make a homemade balaclava and get business done.

Warren Correctional Institution, not content with merely restricting Sean’s communications with the outside world, has now assigned a lieutenant to read through all printed materials sent to Sean.

Please take a minute to send Sean some reading material. That stack of zines in the bathroom? That one book you’ve had for years but will never read? All those fancy new publications you designed? Send them all! Let’s help Sean (and the fuckweasels who intercept his mail) something to pass the time.

Send reading material to:
Sean Swain #243-205
Warren CI
P.O. Box 120
Lebanon, Ohio 45036

Up until now, I’ve taken on a lot of controversial topics from a radical perspective, and I have often taken the most militant, anti-authoritarian position in many current  debates, but there has been one very serious topic that I have avoided. It’s kind of a “third rail” of broadcasting, something you just don’t talk about, a position you just never articulate if you want to keep your job.

Now, I know – there are haters out there who can’t wait to send the hatemail. They say I’m full of overblown rhetoric … and they say I don’t really know what I’m talking about … and they say “what kind of anarchist watches ‘Dancing with the Stars’?” and all  of them may be celebrating the end of my radio career – if that’s what this is. Here goes:

BATMAN MUST DIE. Continue reading →

I’m ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard, but I’m still swinging with all that I’ve got. I gave the state an ultimatum: reinstate my communications or I’ll refuse blood pressure meds – which will lead to heart attack, stroke, or aneurysm. The state hasn’t budged and neither have I. I’m now out of meds and facing a spike in blood pressure. If I die I hope everyone reading this holds the same people responsible for my death as I do.

Odds aren’t so good that I’m going to live through this no matter how it stacks up. My website is in a state of transition, my access to the radio show is essentially cut off, and it feels like I’ve been obliterated beyond prison fences.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is clearly using the Ohio prison system to rig the 2016 presidential election. The FBI is so completely and absolutely terrified of the possibility of a Sean Swain presidency, they have directed prison officials to suspend all of my communications permanently. Everything else is smoke and mirrors. It’s all about 2016 and preventing me from becoming president.

You can’t really blame them, I guess. A federal court has declared me a “unique security threat,” so it’s pretty easy for the FBI to reasonably conclude that I’m the single greatest danger they’ve ever faced, and if somehow I got elected president, well, that would be the immediate death of swivelization.

They can’t let THAT happen. Continue reading →
