‘The Death Machine’ by Paul Cudenec

Posted on 2022/05/15 - 2022/05/15 by darknights

The Death Machine is an enormous and ever-expanding apparatus which today covers vast swathes of the surface of the Earth.

Its task is to suck in everything that it finds – mineral, vegetable, animal and human – and reduce it all into a lifeless grey toxic sludge.

Rumour has it that it also produces tiny quantities of a rich, powerful golden fluid, a honey-heroin, which none of us here have ever seen, let alone tasted.

It is said that this is piped directly into the veins of the Death Machine’s owners, soul-sour vampires who creep in cold caverns deep below the sunlit surface of our world.

The aim of the Death Machine is to destroy and pollute more and more forests, hills, valleys, plains, rivers, lakes and seas, to murder more and more birds, fish, animals and human beings.

Its aim is grow ever bigger and bigger, to boast even more rows of steel teeth and concrete claws, to belch out even greater clouds of suffocating poisonous smoke and waves of deadly radiation, to find ingenious new ways of torturing Mother Earth.

Tiohtià:ke/Montreal, Canada: RBC – Divest from CGL

Posted on 2022/04/14 by darknights

Anonymous Submission to North Shore Counter-Info

Wet’suwet’en Solidarity
Monday April 11th, 2022
Tiohtià:ke/Montreal

In the early afternoon, a small group of anarchists snuck into the RBC offices at Place Ville-Marie. Armed with flyers, stickers and spray paint cans, they left a message for the bank: DIVEST FROM CGL. Since the Fall of 2021, the Wet’suwet’en have been actively campaigning for RBC to stop funding the destruction of their land, but RBC continues to ignore them.

As long as RBC is funding pipeline projects, they will find us in their way.

– some fucking angry anarchists

Further Reflections On Ongoing Anticolonial Solidarity:

Imminent Threat:
Coastal Gaslink (CGL) is set to drill under the Wedzin Kwa this Spring 2022. The people, land, language and culture of Wet’suwet’en as well as the animals residing on these territories are facing annihilation of their lifeways. For those who have heard the call to action, this upcoming year is crucial to the future of Wet’suwet’en self-determination and sovereignty.

Hamilton, Canada: RBC Branches Attacked For Funding Pipeline

Posted on 2022/04/12 by darknights

Anonymous submission to North Shore

This week across southern ontario and quebec, we’ve lost count on how many RBC branches were targeted (we estimate 10+) for disruption and attack. So-called toronto, hamilton, montreal… friends in places as small as orillia and as distant as nanaimo. These actions respond to a need to target investors in the Coastal Gaslink pipeline project – which is currently behind schedule thanks to the direct attack that took place in february as well as the successful campaigns to block the project thus far lead by Gidimt’en Clan – but is still rapidly being constructed on unceded Wet’suwet’en territory.

RBC is one of its largest financial backers, and in the past week and preceding months, has been the subject of pressure tactics ranging from direct action interfering with bank branches, to pushing elites/clients to pull their money out of RBC accounts, to organizing to disrupt RBC’s Annual General Meeting in Toronto. The message is clear: the Royal Bank of Canada needs to divest from CGL immediately.

In hamilton, where we’re writing from, bank branches were vandalized, had their locks glued, and ATMs damaged. We chose these methods to directly interfere with the operations of the bank, hurt them financially and in their public image, and to contribute to the spread of easily-replicable, anonymous actions.

RBC was the central target this week, but they are not alone in complicity. We can also set our sights on other big banks, TC Energy, many related contractors and developers, the RCMP, and the State of so-called Canada.

This is only going to escalate. CGL, and their financial allies like RBC, perpetuate the situation by continuing their exploitative projects and violent attacks on Wet’suwet’en territory. The Wedzin Kwa remains under the looming threat of being destroyed via drill. Elders, matriarchs, supporters, comrades, and land defenders face daily assault. We all need to prepare for more, to respond with more boldness, to do more damage. If they push, then we then will push back, but harder. With only a bit of planning and courage, we can act in ways that feed our spirits and keep the fight alive. Stay safe, and we look forward to seeing your work out there in the days to come.

Atlanta Forest: Fuck cops, Join us in the forest!

Posted on 2022/02/06 by darknights

The time is now! This is a call from some of us living in the Atlanta Forest; We invite you to join us in its defense.

The forest, which is stolen Muscogee land, is slated to become a mock-city for police training. We have no intention of allowing this, nor of limiting our efforts to tree sits and lockdowns (already there have been 3 arson attacks, damaged machinery, home and office visits, barricades, etc.). The more people there are staying in the forest, the more options are open to us. Living in the forest gives us ability to immediately respond to any threat the forest faces. We must not allow them an inch without meeting opposition. Not one blade of grass. As it stands, the forest feels autonomous and the police are reluctant to go deep within it. Help us keep it that way. Come now to defend the forest, in struggle against the police and the civilization that needs them.

Check out https://scenes.noblogs.org/ for more info/past communiques and email atldtf@riseup.net to get in touch if you’re interested in coming.

Elefsina, Greece: Intervention Against Animal Poisonings

Posted on 2022/01/19 - 2022/01/19 by darknights

As a minimal sign of rage against anthropocentric cannibalism and the culture of speicism, the following posters were put up in neighbourhoods of Elefsina, Mandra and Magoula.

(Here is the text of the 2nd of the posters:)

Modern civilized societies are structured on the basis of anthropocentrism.

They have ample space for prisons, industries, the construction of huge modern psycho cells and other units for the perpetuation of exploitative relations in order to serve the interests of the householders and the bosses.

Any remaining elements of fauna and flora within it are therefore exterminated for the sake of a development that profits from the corpses of animals, human and non-human.

The current suffocating conditions within urban landscapes are coming to make it clear that any individual who goes against the imposed way of life will be suppressed.

In order to preserve social peace, therefore, the sterilisation of the grey city is being implemented. Continue reading “Elefsina, Greece: Intervention Against Animal Poisonings” →

Maule, Chile: Arson attack against the companies Áridos Bullileo and Asfaltos Maule

Posted on 2021/12/17 by darknights

We claim the sabotage carried out in the night of September 18 against the companies Áridos Bullileo and Asfaltos Maule, which belong to the Vega-Ruiz family. This family has accumulated its wealth at the cost of the destruction of the ecosystem and the precariousness of our lives. We solemnly declare that there is no such thing as innocent wealth, that anyone in possession of capital has gone through a path of abuse and prevarication, which makes them a target. We know that this family has a long list of abuses against its workers and against the ecosystem of the region; its participation in the destruction of the Achibueno River and its ecosystem is well known.

We denounce its complicity in the plundering of the environment, in all areas and in all corners of this territory called Chile.

The result of this action was the total destruction of :
3 truck mixers
2 hopper trucks
1 truck tractor
1 tractor
1 mobile sorting installation [the one in the picture above; NdAtt.]
1 backhoe

To make a long story short, an amount of 800 million pesos [about 835,000 euros at today’s exchange rate; NdAtt.] of damage. Continue reading “Maule, Chile: Arson attack against the companies Áridos Bullileo and Asfaltos Maule” →

France: [Zine] History and context of the struggle in Bure

Posted on 2021/09/01 by darknights

Source: Bure Bure Bure

Here is a map of the territory around Bure, with indications in the following text. It is a representation of the area, in order to better understand the different places and the high points of the struggle (Andra laboratory, the former station of Luméville, Lejuc wood, the struggle against Unitech in Joinville, the archives of Houdelaincourt, the GIP,…). The map, which is more of a bird’s eye view of reality, could be completed with other more precise documents, for a more refined vision of the territory. What was important to us here was the space left to the text.

The struggle in Bure has been going on for almost 25 years, and in order to have a more complete vision of the past years, the second part of the zine is a chronology of the struggle against Cigéo. The two parts go together, but can also be read separatly. This is why historical sequences can be redundant from time to time (Lejuc wood and 2016-2017, for example).

As with any written perception of the territory and past events, this is a subjective (although collective) vision, a kind of tool, a mean. It should not be taken for granted and is only willing to be criticized, confronted with other opinions or testimonies.

The present zine is also available in French, German and Italian.
On this beautiful pompous verbiage, we wish you a nice reading session (and more if desired) against Cigéo!

Summury :

-> GEOGRAPHY OF A NUCLEARIZED TERRITORY :
The ANDRA’s Laboratory
La Maison de Résistance à la Poubelle Nucléaire
The Lejuc wood
The former station of Luméville-en-Ornois
In Froncles (42 km to the lab) : POMA, subcontractor of CIGEO
In Joinville (22 km to the lab) : UNITECH, another example of territory’s nuclearization
The GIP’s funding
The SAFER of land, forest and building grabbing
-> CHRONOLOGY OF THE STRUGGLES :
1) 1987-2000 : Where will be the storage site that nobody wants ?
2) 2000-2014 : Early years in Bure
3) 2014-2015 : Bure is not just a Meuse and Haute-Marne problem!
4) 2016-2017 : occupation of the Lejuc wood and agricultural resistance
5) 2017-2019 : repression on opponents intensifies
6) 2019-nowadays
7) Today’s issues : 2021 and the risk of acceleration for Cigéo’s project

Minneapolis, USA: Roseville Office Attacked In Solidarity With Atlanta Forest

Posted on 2021/08/25 by darknights

Responding to the call from comrades in Atlanta for an 8/18 day of action in solidarity with the struggle to defend the Atlanta forest; vandals broke into the office complex housing Corporation Service Company’s (CSC) regional office in Roseville, a suburb of Minneapolis. After smashing the office door and throwing cans of paint inside, a message was left sprayed across the front: HANDS OFF THE ATLANTA FOREST.

Demands are being made for CSC to drop their client, Blackhall Studios. Blackhall Studios would like to level the South Atlanta Forest to build the country’s largest soundstage and an airport, creating unprecedented levels of gentrification in the city.

Atlanta police plan to level 300 acres and create a sprawling tactical training compound featuring a mock city, with which they’ll develop the ability of police departments around the country to brutalize those practicing resistance.

Rebels in Minneapolis know what it means to inhabit a rapidly gentrifying city, and know what it means to have cutting edge police repression deployed against us. We also know what it means to fight back. Atlanta, we love you.

In solidarity,

Minneapolis

Hambacher Forest, Germany: Forest Anti-Speciest Days 2021

Posted on 2021/07/23 - 2021/07/23 by darknights

INTERNATIONAL CALLOUT!

JOIN US FOR ANOTHER GATHERING FOR ANIMAL LIBERATION

During the pandemic many people started to think that online-activism is the best way of resisting…

The Hambacher Forest is a long-standing autonomous zone fighting the biggest opencast coalmine in so-called Europe. Meet us here this summer for a weekend of exchanging knowledge on the topic of direct action for animal liberation.

Many animal rights groups have become a hotbed for fascist/patriarchal/transphobic/homophobic/white-suprematist views and behaviors. Others offer a smug vegan capitalism promising to save the world if only we change our consumption habits. At this event we want to appeal to our comrades and not the masses: this is a space for like-minded individuals to share skills and perspectives on anti-speciesist struggles, outside and against bureaucratic campaigns and organizations, uncompromising in our rejection of the state, capitalism and all forms of oppression.

No liberal campaigning or protesting. No pacifist cop-hugging. No saviour complex “rescuing”. It’s time to meet, plan and make trouble!

A list of workshops will be soon announced. They will mostly be practical, along with broader discussions on animal liberation strategy. (You are also warmly invited to propose/provide your own!)

Pack your sleeping bag, get a ride, and join us in July!
