V ENCUENTRO ANARQUISTA CONTRA EL SISTEMA

TECNOINDUSTRIAL Y SU MUNDO

Durante los días 27, 28 y 29 de Mayo tendrá lugar el «V Encuentro Anarquista contra el Sistema Tecnoindustrial y su mundo». Un lugar donde encontrarnos, conocernos, debatir, difundir y afilar nuestras ideas contra la organización técnica del mundo. Pretendemos que el encuentro sea una herramienta más para combatir el sistema tecno-científico-industrial, porque pensamos que el terreno del enfrentamiento se debe concentrar en el campo del progreso tecnológico, puesto que es y será lo que trace las presentes y futuras dinámicas de la dominación sobre todos y cada uno de los aspectos de nuestra vida: sociales, políticos, económicos y ambientales. Durante la duración de las jornadas habrá un espacio para distribuidoras (aquellas que quieran montar la distribuidora en el espacio les pedimos que confirmen su presencia con antelación) y comedores 100% vegetariano.. En los próximos días difundiremos el programa completo del Encuentro, que este año se realizará en el PVA Sputnik (C/Gonzalez soto, 21, Vallecas, Madrid)

Históricamente, los sistemas de dominación han aprovechado los momentos de crisis o catástrofes para transformar el mundo, para realizar una metamorfosis del mismo. En otros tiempos esta metamorfosis fue llevada a cabo cuando el capitalismo se vio amenazado por el avance de la lucha de clases o por la necesidad de cambios económicos y productivos con los que maximizar beneficios. En nuestro tiempo vemos como la tecnocracia aprovecha las emergencias ya sean energéticas, sanitarias, económicas, climáticas… para acelerar el tecno totalitarismo que supone el mundo-máquina. Se está llevando a cabo una nueva “gran transformación”, impulsada por las élites tecno-financieras, un Gran Reinicio. Reiniciar la vida en todas sus dimensiones para imponer una nueva forma de vida y un nuevo mundo bajo los imperativo de la 4º Revolución Industrial, es decir, reiniciar la vida para someterla al mundo-máquina que persigue optimizar al ser humano y todo lo vivo para convertirlo en un engranaje más de dicho mundo. Una vez artificializada y controlada la naturaleza el objetivo ahora es el ser humano. Continue reading “Spain: V Encuentro Contra el Sistema Tecno Industrial y su Mundo. 27,28 y 29 de mayo.

Putting the system of property in danger- Anarchist Block 1st of May demo 2022 Berlin. EN/DE

Posted on 2022/04/20 by darknights

„The coming change can only come through a revolution, because the possessing class will not allow a peaceful change to take place; still we are willing to work for peace at any price, except at the price of liberty.“
Lucy Parsons

„We are carrying a new world in our hearts, and this world is growing right now right here“
Durruti

„What the eye sees, the hand holds. The inflammable material of property explodes the flame of revolution“
Stirner

Very often we easily claim to be against capitalism, but we sometimes lack to truly think what capitalism means. Lost in the abstract fight against the insatiable beast, we forget how real it is.

For ages the arrogance of the rich and the people in power to proclaim exclusive domination upon our lives has been increasing. Controlling our time towards labour, they want to appropriate our emotions and social relations. Tiredness is no longer part of us, but the duty of our weekly hours. The same hour count that erases our desire for leisure time with friends and beloved ones. It is this duty that pushes our bodies and with them our first space of enunciation into the capitalist hands of the state and their servants. Connecting our lives into the most intimate weaving with property. Establishing the prison of binarism as an absolute truth and classifying some bodies and behaviors as more valuable than others.

Private property as we know it, the one we know in the capitalist system in which we were born and raised and which is therefore perceived almost as something „natural“, actually dates back a few centuries ago. It is only since the 17th century common ground that property is a fact of nature and an inviolable right of every citizen. Today, private property is considered in all countries a true sacred and natural right, absolute and inalienable, necessary and inviolable, worthy of being protected by the force of ideas and protected by the force of arms. Wealth has become an absolute good, and capitalism the best of all possible worlds. Continue reading “Putting the system of property in danger- Anarchist Block 1st of May demo 2022 Berlin. EN/DE” →

Czech Rep: Money for anarchists, necklace for Lukashenko

Posted on 2022/04/20 by darknights

Some time ago, a decision was made to raise funds for the anarchists being prosecuted in so-called Belarus. First there was a tattoo fundraiser and later a fundraising D.I.Y. book published under the title “Words Against Isolation or As Long As There Are Prisons, Let’s Write Letters.” So far, these activities have raised 700 euro. These funds will support five anarchists convicted for their willingness to resist the dictatorship. Namely these people: Nikola Dziadok (sentenced for 5 years), Sergei Romanov (sentenced for 20 years), Igor Olinevich (sentenced for 20 years), Dmitri Rezanovich (sentenced for 19 years) and Dmitri Dubovsky (sentenced for 18 years).

Alexander Lukashenko is the leader of a dictatorship that defends its existence by torturing and imprisoning the opposition. It is good not to forget this, which is why an unusual ‘necklace’ has been created for Lukashenko. It is only a drawn one, but perhaps one day someone will make him a real one.

Montevideo, Uruguay: Llamado/Incitación para un 1ero de Mayo en las calles ES/EN

Posted on 2022/04/12 - 2022/04/12 by darknights

A medida que nos acercamos a esta fecha tan histórica y trascendental, a lo que la lucha revolucionaria representa, desde lxs anarquistas en Uruguay nace, surge y se cuestiona el posicionamiento del movimiento, tanto colectivo como individualmente. Sobre todo teniendo en cuenta y recordando la historia de lucha que lxs anarquistas han aportado al movimiento obrero y la lucha en general. Hoy en día la situación es diferente, no son los mismos tiempos, la sociedad, el estado y el capital sufrieron transformaciones; sin embargo hay cuestiones que no cambian…y hablamos, nada ni nada menos, que de vivir en base a la explotación, ya sea de la tierra o de los cuerpos la idea es la misma, exprimirnos hasta la ultima gota.

La vida en Uruguay no es ajena a esa explotación, el negocio inmobiliario, el turismo y el ¨campo¨ se llevan el podio (y toda la moneda) a la par que contribuyen a la precarización de la vida. Si a todo este cóctel le sumamos la tibieza de algunos sindicatos pertenecientes a la central obrera y los clásicos ¨teje y maneje¨ de la política empresarial de turno…el resultado es evidente: paz social – espejitos de colores y mucho humo. Podríamos estar rato largo evidenciando y contándoles lo ¨bonito¨ que se ve Uruguay desde afuera y la realidad de lo que nos toca vivir por estos lares, pero no es la idea de este llamado.

Escribimos esto para alentar e incitar a la acción en la calle!!! Para que no sea un 1ero de Mayo mas, sino uno bien pesado y encendido, ruidoso y revoltoso, que se note en las calles el descontento y la memoria de lxs compañerxs caídxs. Nuestra lucha no la marca el calendario pero las fechas nos recuerdan la importancia de la lucha, nos hace reflexionar sobre el pasado y el presente. Luchamos a diario por otro mundo…un mundo libre donde la injusticia, el hambre y la explotación no exista.

Lo que estas leyendo es una incitación a seguir conspirando, a juntarte con tus compas de laburo, con tus ñeris del barrio o del liceo y salir a la calle, las formas de agitar y la imaginación no tienen limites, la desobediencia es encantadora.

VIVA LA MEMORIA COMBATIVA DE ¨LOS MÁRTIRES DE CHICAGO¨

VIVA LA LUCHA REVOLUCIONARIA EN LAS CALLES!!

Call for submissions for a new publishing project: No Path – Against Speciesism, Civilisation & The Reign of Ideas

Posted on 2022/03/11 - 2022/08/05 by darknights

AGAINST SPECIESISM, CIVILISATION AND THE REIGN OF IDEAS

“There are paths that can be followed, and there is a path that cannot – it is not a path, it is the wilderness.”

Call for submissions for a new publishing project:

At the forefront of this call is a wish to deepen the conversation between anti-spe and anti-civ anarchists. Whereas these currents are normally kept separate, this doesn’t resonate with us at all – we want to better understand their shared potential. We also want to explore more deeply the topic which, for lack of a better term, might be described as “nihilism”, along with the critiques of ideology, rationalism and in general the civilised obsession with surrendering our lives to daydreams.

We warmly invite our unknown comrades to submit original essays, English translations of beloved texts, poetry, artwork and whatever else potentially relevant to the following topics: anti-speciesism, anti-civ anarchy, nihilism, egoism, gender chaos, rewilding, irrationality. Beyond these more specific concerns, we also wish to pose a riddle: How are we to affirm the here and now, with all its toxic overflows, not pretending to be somewhere else?

(Submissions by mid May or sooner would be great – we hope to release by summer 2022). nopath [at] riseup [dot] net

Madrid, Spain: GUERRA A LA GUERRA. FUCK OTAN. NATO SUMMIT IN MADRID ON JUNE 29 AND 30 EN/ES

Posted on 2022/03/06 - 2022/03/06 by darknights

GUERRA A LA GUERRA. FUCK OTAN
NATO SUMMIT IN MADRID ON JUNE 29 AND 30

On June 29th and 30th a new NATO summit will be held in Madrid. This military organization was created after World War II as a weapon to defend the interests of the winner of the war: capitalism.

During these days the streets will be filled with military, owners of arms companies, leaders… with the aim of planning and developing new war scenarios, new weapons and ultimately prepare for all the difficulties and adverse scenarios that the techno-capitalist project may encounter.

In a world increasingly precarious and full of miseries we have been able to see how little by little the military presence in the streets has been normalized, as for example the military deployment during the pandemic generating a climate of war, terror and social control. A demonstration of force, of government of the catastrophe with military forces as protagonists such as, for example, NATO.

NATO not only defends the geostrategic projects of capitalism and imposes its way of life on the entire planet, but will also be the main shock force against the revolts that follow. One of these geostrategic conflicts is the one taking place right now between Russia and NATO, with Ukraine as a scenario. That region has been destabilized in a state of permanent low-intensity warfare and with elements of the so-called “hybrid war” between the imperialist powers since 2014.

From the media, the army has been getting a facelift since the pademia and now they pretend to sell us the idea of NATO as a pacifying force, which is totally far from reality.

That is why we launched this blog with the aim of providing information, analysis and calls against the NATO summit because we refuse to become merchandise for their wars.

OUR WAR IS THE SOCIAL WAR
FUCK NATO

Announcing a new multilingual anarchist book distribution – Rupture

Posted on 2022/02/22 by darknights

Rupture – Multilingual anarchist book distro

https://rupture.noblogs.org/

The passion for freedom, as well as the firmness to refuse any attempt to commercialise it, has led us to create this space to host a catalogue of books by different anarchist publishers. Written or translated, edited, and printed autonomously, these publications aim to give a concrete and coherent reference to the analyses, history, struggles, and experiences that have – and continue to – nourish our anarchist projectuality.

Our selection will not be exhaustive but will gradually increase. One will not find every title from the anarchist heritage, as it is not our intention here to create a supermarket of anarchist ideas, theories, or perspectives – not necessarily because we are not interested in all the forms this can take, but because we are in love with the idea, proposal, and practice of subverting the world of authority without delay. The freedom that we stubbornly seek is against any political strategy, suspicious of democratic consensus, and refractory to submission. So, this selection, available to all, carries the explicit intention of proposing, deepening, and refining anarchist practice that aims for social revolt, without mediation, without compromise, without anything to offer to the reform of this world.

At a time when perspectives of social revolution seem frozen in a sea of deliberate confusion, resigned fear, calculated catastrophes, technological colonization, and authoritarian hysteria, we relaunch, even more obstinately, the words in these books about and for struggle, to invite their readers to sail towards new and unknown horizons of freedom, autonomy, solidarity, conflict, joy.

This book distribution offers publications in English, Dutch, and German, available for single orders and for other distributions.

For anarchy!

Thessaloniki, Greece: Message of resistance of the imprisoned anarchist Thanos Xatziagkelou

Posted on 2022/02/10 - 2022/02/12 by darknights

When the hours begin to count down to the complete loss of freedom from the teeth of confinement, each moment acquires its own distinct existential meaning. A smile, a touch, the warmth of a comrade’s voice in a cold phone call, the chants outside the interrogation are the flames which burn your heart, reminding you that nothing ends. Battles have casualties. The war itself has casualties. But nothing was given to us, nothing was given to us bloodlessy because we extended our hand. Nothing was won through prayers.

“This inhuman, insidious white of your empty eyes reminds me of the armistice in battle…”

In this life, everything is won through faith and dedication to the field of social antagonism. With consistency in the battles and a relentless tension, a persistence on the offensive horizon. Through my small contribution to the evolution of the class struggle, beyond my contradictions and mistakes, if there is something that characterises me it is social consciousness and the commitment to the revolutionary duty. These are the two things that, on some evenings, become a noose around your neck and do not let you sleep. Screams, sobs, and even silences awaken, and they anger you, they enrage you, they arm you. Responsibility, comrades. We have responsibility. For all those restless nights I feel proud, because all of those nights I chose for my eyes to look at the stars. I remain unyielding, unrepetant, and angrier than ever, because I defend my proud captivity against the dead freedoms of decay.

“These a bit roughly, for the restoration of the black.”

All my thoughts, love and support remain adamantly on the side of these two people that are imprisoned next to me, giving the most important struggle of all of us. The struggle against the absurdity of repression. As for me, I will remind you that the revolution against tyranny is an account that remains open. And revolutionary violence ought to be a non-negotiable, one-way street.

Comrades, until we meet again on the battlefields, let us not compromise with anything less than everything.

Down with statism, long live Anarchy
