Call to action against the International Drone Show in Denmark, Odense

Posted on 2026/05/07 by darknights

On 3.-4. June 2026 at Hans Christian Andersen Airport, so-called “global players” and local startups will meet and show off their newest death toys.

These people who “just do their job” are making machines of “dual use technology”. The technology both makes you dependent on its usage in your everyday life, and can destroy that life upon the operators choice. They can try and pretend to have a cozy meeting in the middle of Fortress Europe, but we are many who live within the walls and are taking aim at the watch towers!

Drones aren’t toys, they are the very machines that terrorize and kill unnumbered people in the imperial wars haunting our times. People who have lived under the presence of drones become cautious and even afraid of clear blue skies, the perfect conditions for drone strikes. Drones fly across occupied Palestine carrying AI-assisted weaponry while playing sounds of babies crying, just to shoot the oncoming helpers. The same data center that delivers AI-girlfriends and deepfake-pornography can deliver critical information to militaries far away. Our simplest human joys and fears become the battlefield.

AI tech is rooted in eugenics, viewing the human body and experience as a complex machine that can be understood, categorized, improved and ultimately dominated (awaiting extermination). The perfect system becomes a mirror image of the perfect human: a white man. Just take one look at the Drone Shows list of speakers and you will see these Ubermenschs!

A fact not widely known is that Odense has big aspirations to become the drone capital of Europe. By inviting military and tech companies and researchers, it offers our enemies the ability to strengthen their networks of destruction and war-mongering. On Denmark’s drone playground, they want to show off and rejoice in the buzzing and zooming toys that are the wet dreams of tech-bros and patriarchal elites.

We call for an international week of action starting from the 01. June to disrupt and target the companies and institutions involved in drone technology, surveillance and AI development!

We invite you to attack the engineers of these disasters! Many of the Danish companies have offices in different parts of the country, three Danish universities are deeply involved, and there are key supplies that are needed to host such a huge event in Odense. We are of the conviction that simple protest is way past its due date, and direct action is necessary to stop this machinery! We are inspired by all the small action groups around the world lighting up the night and taking back the sky!

There are two social hangouts that we hope someone will ruin for these suits: The networking get together at the capitalist brewery Anarkist: 02 June, 18:30 – 22:00, Albanigade 20, 5000 Odense C

And the IDS After Hours networking dinner. Join them for an exclusive networking dinner at G.A.S.A. Middelfartvej 9M, 5000 Odense C, on 3 June 2026, 19:00–22:00.

And here we have compiled the domestic actors for Denmark, but there are many targets all around the world. With over 100 exhibitors and 1000 industry stakeholders visiting the show, you can happily pick and choose your local (ad)venture.
