NEWS FROM THE TRIAL OF THE COMRADES IN BANDUNG

Six comrades from the Political Expression Hunting Cluster (also often referred to as the Chaos Star Case) have undergone sentencing today. The outcome of the trial is that comrades AD and MNT were sentenced by the prosecutor to 3 years in prison. Meanwhile, comrades RFK, TAP, MJF, and RS were sentenced to 2 years and 6 months in prison.

A few words from a letter sent by a comrade involved in the Chaos Star case:

“We are particles of an entity called disorder, which is supposed to exist within the spectrum of defiance as our wild instinct, as unique and lazy individuals!”

No one is free until everyone is free.

Just Days Before the Federal Trial Begins, Defense Motions Seek to Suppress Evidence, Exclude Codefendant Statements at Trial

FORT WORTH, TX – Days before a widely watched federal trial is set to begin in the Prairieland ICE protest case, U.S. District Court Judge Mark Pittman ordered pretrial motions hearings for Tuesday, February 10 and Thursday, February 12. Nine defendants—Savanna Batten, Zachary Evetts, Autumn Hill, Meagan Morris, Maricela Rueda, Daniel “Des” Rolando Sanchez Estrada, Benjamin “Champagne” Song, Elizabeth Soto, and Ines Soto—who were indicted in November on a variety of charges including riot, discharging a firearm, attempted murder, material support for terrorism, and conspiracy to conceal documents will start their federal trial next week with jury selection on Tuesday, February 17.

On Tuesday, February 10 at 10am, Judge Pittman will hear arguments on a motion to suppress evidence against Prairieland defendant Elizabeth Soto, and a motion filed by Prairieland defendant Autumn Hill to exclude statements of codefendant Meagan Morris. A third motion filed on behalf of Daniel Rolando Sanchez Estrada, which is currently being withheld from the public record, will be heard on Thursday, February 12 at 2pm. The Prairieland case stems from a July 4, 2025 noise demonstration in support of detained immigrants at the Prairieland ICE Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas.

“I’m really fantasizing about the Caribbean island” – Noam Chomsky (U$A)

Posted on 2026/02/09 by darknights

USA: Within the strange, controversial and damning Jeff Epstein emails which have been released in redacted and incomplete form by the US Department of Justice, there are records that reveal a relationship between neo-fascist Steve Bannon, leftist academic Noam Chomsky and the corrupt financier Jeff Epstein.

We will not reproduce the comments here, beyond one –“I’m really fantasizing about the Caribbean island”, one of Epstein’s hideouts, but it is clear that they maintained an active but infrequent exchange, also from Epstein financially benefiting Chomsky. Chomsky is responsible for some reprehensible commenting about women and sexual abuse/rape in the DOJ emails, leading to a question about what was exactly the nature of their friendship. At the least, we could say, that Chomsky knew he was consulting with a child sex trafficker and was attracted to the attention, the wealth, the politicking.

Despite the protests coming from the left about this fact, it’s a fitting conclusion for Noam Chomsky: a money-hungry sexist and comfortable apologist of Epstein. Just another careerist fading away after serving as the faithful opposition and mouthpiece critic. The definitive end of Noam Chomsky’s association with the radical left and his supposed “anarchism”.

An Anarchist Critique of Post-Modernism and Post-Anarchism

Posted on 2026/02/08 by darknights

AN ANARCHIST CRITIQUE OF POSTMODERNISM AND POST-ANARCHISM

The 20th century, which began as a revolutionary whirlwind, ended with a collapse of emancipatory ideas, from anarchism to socialism, which were “defeated” by a capitalism that would mutate and transform itself according to its needs. Capitalist domination recovers old “revolutionary” struggles—social, economic, ecological—absorbing many of these emancipatory ideas and incorporating them into its program. On the one hand, the inability of revolutionary movements to see and analyze these new capitalist restructurings, and on the other hand, capitalism with its endless wars and conflicts of domination and destabilization of entire territories, or in its communist form, with its immense sinkholes of moral and material misery, represented by the gulags, led to the destabilization of the revolutionary movements that had cornered capitalism at different points in the 20th century.

This succeeded in shackling all yearnings for freedom and emancipation, provoking a widespread exodus of revolutionary movements that later converged in the ideas of postmodernism. Faced with the fall and crisis of these revolutionary movements, it seems that many found a way out: retreating into individual subjectivity and fleeing to the market as the guarantor of a happiness based on the privatization of life (the destruction of community) and the hyperconsumption characteristic of postmodernism. The hyperconsumption of identities is particularly noteworthy. Continue reading “An Anarchist Critique of Post-Modernism and Post-Anarchism” →

In August and September 2025, after the murder of a motorbike courier during a protest against government corruption and police brutality in Jakarta, Indonesia exploded into a huge popular uprising which rocked the regime of the ex-military President Prabowo. After the riots, the ruling elites blamed the “anarchists” for causing the unrest and they started to round up thousands of young people in major cities, blaiming them for taking part in the protests.

Across the country, young people were snatched by the anti-terrorist unit, ‘Densus 88’, and tortured until they gave false testimony. The regime attacked young people in the streets, delivery drivers, IT workers, activists, punks, journalists, musicians & others, who were all accused of serious “crimes”…

Come and find out about the ‘Chaos Star‘ frame-up of more than 70 accused anarchists. Come and find out how the cops were able to round up the anarchist, radical left and alternative scenes in Indonesia. What can we learn from the repression? What are the roles of anarchists during mass insurrections?

How we can support the hundreds of prisoners? Find out @ BASE, 15/3/26

ICE agents murder another legal observer (USA)

Posted on 2026/01/25 - 2026/01/26 by darknights

Reports are confirmed that ICE agents shot 37 year old comrade Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse, on the street, who was filming their repression in Minneapolis, USA. This took place in the context of widespread protests and an ongoing general strike. The USA has been rocked by the widespread deployment of a fascist personal army of Trump who are attacking and detaining people of colour. There is a media whiteout on the actual detailed news of what is taking place. The Trump administration has reached its point of no return.
