“Battle or Death. Bloody struggle or non-existence. So inexorably comes the question “ – George Sand

As anarchists, communists, we struggle daily and by all means against the degradation of labor into a commodity, of the worker into an object, against the patriarchal devaluation of femininities and LGBTQ+ subjects. We fight, in other words, against every existing capitalist productive and social relation. This struggle confronting the bourgeoisie and the state is the necessary condition for the abolition of classes and for our liberation. The movements and means we use are always judged in the necessity of the class struggle.

Necessary are the means that rally the working class and the revolutionary proletariat, that fill their hearts with irreconcilable hostility to oppression, that intensify their contempt for bourgeois legitimacy, morality and their democratic mouthpieces, and that remind us of the consciousness of our historical mission.

Thus there are social and political developments and events that mark moments in the class struggle when we must escalate the intensity of our struggle. It is at these moments that revolutionary vigilantism is the only and immediate answer to express and defend the interests of the oppressed class.

One of these crucial events is the case of the (child) rapist and New Democracy appointee Dimitris Lignadis. Dimitris Lignadis is an integral link in the chain of the Greek bourgeoisie as well as a personal friend of New Democracy executives and ministers. At the starting point of the case, government spokesman Christos Tarantilis, tried to cover up for Dimitris Lignadis by stating that he resigned for personal reasons, while Lina Mendoni concealed their personal relationship, claiming that she was deceived by Dimitris Lignadis’ ‘deep hypocrisy’. Moreover, during the hearing of the case it became apparent that, unlike other cases of government scandals, he is not just a “front man” or “scapegoat” of the government to wash the political system, but a deeply rooted and organic part of the bourgeoisie and the New Democracy. A fact that is moreover obvious both from the release from prison and from the public moral support of Dimitris Lignadis in the recent articles of Kathimerini. At the same time the anarchist political prisoner Yannis Michaelides who is on hunger strike since 23/5 demanding his release is being exterminated by the judiciary and the government of the N.S. For all these reasons we chose to express our anger against the Ministry of Culture. Thus, after the end of the demonstration in defence of Exarcheia we attacked with 8 Molotov cocktails the grounds of the ministry on Zaimi street, delivering two of their official cars to the flames.

The day starts well with hatred for the bosses

It is provocative for the golden boys of the electricity companies to think that they will show off their wealth through their luxury cars, worth thousands of euros, which were granted to them for free thanks to an amendment by the Ministry of the Environment, and to believe that they will remain immune to the public’s anger.Nowadays, the cost of living is increasing geometrically. Electricity, water and gas bills come inflated by hundreds of euros. Basic foodstuffs such as bread, rice, pasta and vegetables have become luxury items. House repossessions and power cuts are on the increase. Rents are constantly rising. While the fake ‘electricity subsidy’ to the social base presented as a financial relief, in fact it is a scam of just a few euros, so few that sometimes they are not paid into our bills, is a communication weapon in the quiver of the criminals and crooks of the ND government. In the face of this constant devaluation of our lives, we are not prepared to simply watch journalists announce how much inflation has increased. Impoverishment and destitution are a consequence of the political choices of those who administer power. The economic crisis has demonstrated most emphatically that the ‘value’ of life depends on whether you are rich or poor. The rich enjoy their bloody privileges and have freepasses to rooms and intensive care units when needed, while the poor are left to die stained in the corridors of understaffed and underfunded hospitals. The only freepass the poor are to be given is for the front lines of imperialist wars. The state officials who organize our exploitation, the banks, the big bosses and the goldenboys who plunder our nature and our lives, the “parrots” of power who turn white into black and instruct us, as the new Antoinettes, to eat sponge cake if we have no bread, must be put in the crosshairs of the oppressed and the exploited. For all these reasons, at noon on Friday 8 July, we handed over to the flames a luxury car of large capacity parked outside the offices of the Public Power Corporation and belonging to a major executive of that company.To our plundering and impoverishment we must respond with assemblies, occupations, strikes, expropriations, conflicts, arson, demonstrations
