DITW: On Terrorism and the State by Gianfranco Sanguinetti (RIP)

Andy, Varn, and Alex of Antipolitika Journal read and discuss Gianfranco Sanguinetti's 1979 text "On Terrorism and the State."

A follow-up on his "Truthful Report on the Last Chances to Save Capitalism in Italy" hoax from a few years earlier, the text accuses the Italian State of arranging the kidnapping and murder of Aldo Moro, and being behind all acts of terrorism as a short-sighted strategy of defense. The piece also condemns leftwing arm struggle as reproducing the Spectacle, ultimately proposing its own vision of proletarian insurrection.
