My interpretation of "uplefting" is more uplifting news about or involving anti-capitalists. News of successful direct action, shows of solidarity, recent achievements by activists, etc. Uplifting stuff we're actually responsible for, that's what I really find "uplefting".

Bolsonaro potentially dying of cancer may be good for anti-capitalists (assuming he's not just replaced by the next fascist in line), but it's not like he was assassinated - it's just him randomly suffering a hit.

PDF seems to be wrong. Most of the pages have apparently been replaced by a different text: "A Brief History of Terrorism in the United States" by Ann Larabee.

Douglas Pearce, leader of Death in June, has Nazi sympathies - specifically with the Strasserists and SA. The name 'Death in June' is a reference to the Night of the Long Knives - when the SA was purged from the Nazi party.

Death in June often uses fashy imagery and themes in their work, sometimes subtle but often not. For example, the line "On a marble slab in Yalta Mother Europe was slaughtered" from the song 'Sons of Europe'. (A reference to the Yalta conference towards the end of WW2.)

Unfortunately, a lot of neo-folk bands are the same.
