I want to share some translated textes from a german collective which is working on a new social/technological critique. I´m very interested in a discussion about the toughts mentioned and how you see the future. Most interesting would be how resistance could work in a digitalized society.

If there is any real content here, which it seems there is, the translation is almost too poor to read and comprehend. It's almost as if you the creators just chucked their PDF into google translate and pushed it live.
Anyways, most people (even involved such as myself) aren't really interested in reading a 40 page PDF on their Friday nights. If you have any involvement in their organization, I recommend relaying them to cut down on their length and create more direct media. Or at least refine their media to a more consumable format in general.
Otherwise, keep up the great work.

>>2269"From Karoshi to Surplus" is short, well written and nicely translated. "facebook the conqueror" is even shorter but very badly translated. "Disconnect" is a bit longer but it really is a collection of shorter articles, nothing to be afraid of. Sometimes the translation is a bit rough but it's manageable. This thread won't suddenly disappear, take your time reading them.
