i know people in NATO who assess artists' EFFECTIVENESS and either support 
them materially or disable/ kill them depending on whether their message 
supports the desired narrative

do you try to protect yourself and loved ones from propaganda in your own 
personal life and practice ?

how do you deal with friends, family and comrades that start to subject 
you to propaganda ? do you have a security strategy you can make public ?

i have learnt to navigate situations emotionally and to weaponise 
intimacy in extreme situations of dentention, stalking and isolation

i have been very inspired by assange conceiving two children with his
lawyer whilst in arbitary detention - not sure how i would feel about
this though if i was one of his kids, knowing i was the embodiment of
an act of rebellion

hope all is well
