Bremen, Germany: Fire for Tesla! Charging stations and switch cabinets set alight!

Posted on 2025/11/25 by darknights

Switch off Tesla! Switch off AI capitalism! Switch off fascism!

Smash COP30: Last week, representatives of UN member states flew into Belém, Brazil, with their insanely large entourage of journalists, security forces, and scientists to ponder their inaction, take group photos, and announce statements they will not keep. All this while we are governed by people who care more about supplying German industry with enough critical raw materials and positioning themselves for careers after their term in office than trying to prevent the complete destruction of the Earth.

Belém has been upgraded for tourists, the rich, and politicians because of the COP summit. While tourists stroll along the shiny new harbor dock, houses have been cleared and the exploited and poor pushed to the margins of the city. Neighborhoods have been buried under concrete. It is the same dynamic of gentrification and repression that we know from other meetings of the world’s powerful.

The tradition of colonization manifests itself through the exploitation of the rainforest, industrial agriculture, mining, and oil production, which destroy indigenous territories. Solidarity greetings to the indigenous people who stormed the climate conference building and sparked a moment of revolt. https://www.zdfheute.de/panorama/klimakonferenz-cop30-indigene-aktivisten-protest-100.html

We think this is a good moment to point out that we should not believe their lies for a moment longer. The displacement in cities, the destruction of the earth, the colonization of territories—all these struggles are interconnected.

That is why we set fire to four Tesla charging stations and two adjacent switch cabinets with gasoline. Let’s sabotage this deadly regime! Let’s sabotage their (green) capitalism!

Musk stands for exactly this logic and is not without reason the richest person on this planet. We want to see his empire in flames!

Switch off Tesla! Switch off AI-Capitalism! Switch off Fascism!

Berlin, Germany: Fire for Tesla

Posted on 2024/02/11 by darknights

Two Teslas were set on fire in Rummelsburg on February 7 and two Tesla charging stations on Vulkanstraße on February 8.

We think that Tesla is an ideal target for our attacks.

Because:

> Several armies use Tesla’s Starlink satellite system in their wars. Including Israel in Gaza. Also Ukraine. Tesla’s Starlink infrastructure is an important military player and attacks on Tesla can be a sign everywhere: against every war!

> Tesla is a symbol of “green capitalism”. But it is anything but green: the lithium batteries come from toxic mines in Chile and devour other rare metals, which means misery and destruction for the mining areas. “Green capitalism” stands for colonialism and land theft!

> Tesla wants to further expand its Gigafactory in Grünheide near Berlin. We want to defend ourselves against this! We don’t want any more Teslas on the roads! The Gigafactory became known for its extreme exploitation conditions. In addition, the factory contaminates the groundwater and consumes huge amounts of this already scarce resource for its products.

> Tesla is militarizing our roads. Their cars are equipped with high-resolution cameras. In “guard mode”, they film everything and everyone. Make sure to make yourself unrecognizable during actions.

> Elon Musk is an arsehole!

Therefore:

Let the air out of the tyres of expensive cars? great.

Even better: let Teslas burst into flames everywhere!

A few barbecue lighters and spring can begin!

Berlin, Germany: Fire for Green Capitalism – Solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2023/01/24 by darknights

In the night from Thursday (the 19.01.) to Friday an electric car charging station at the Engelbecken in Berlin Kreuzberg was set on fire. It happened in a night full of international actions to show solidarity with our comrade Alfredo Cospito. It is reported that he will soon be force-fed, against which he clearly and forcefully opposes. In a letter to his lawyer he writes:
“[…] Life is meaningless in this grave for the living.”

This act is also an act against green capitalism, which is sold as a holy solution to today’s capitalism. This is, of course, nonsense and continues to reinforce mechanisms of oppression that are already inherent in the system today. Among these can be named colonialism, from which many countries in the global South suffer because capitalist companies from the global North plunder the resources there. Because, in order to satiate the rush for an electric mobility, tons of rare earth, minerals and raw materials have to be extracted and thus countless human lives are stolen, families torn apart, communities ruined, ecosystems destroyed. We would like to share with you a detailed article about the connection between capitalism and colonialism with the following link:
https://kontrapolis.info/7953/

Furthermore, consequences of destructive capitalism, to a lesser extent, are also felt near us. We think of, the people who have defended Lützerath to the end and welcome those who have resisted with all means. But after the eviction is unfortunately still before the eviction, so we send out a lot of strength to all other (forest) occupations (Heibo, Fecher, etc.).

These charging stations are often used to charge electric SUVs or car sharing cars, for those who can afford something other than public transport. This sends electricity into inefficient individual transportation options and money into the pockets of private companies. Even more money is wasted in this, as the Berlin Senate is supporting the “implementation of the electrification of commercial motor vehicle fleets in the capital” through the WELMO funding program. At a time when more and more people are having trouble paying their (electricity) bills…. we do not need to explain further.

This one action remains symbolic in itself. One column among hundreds that exist in Berlin is not much. But this night we have seen that these stations are relatively easy targets for direct actions and are difficult to delete. Once you need good strength and a DNA-free tool to crack the door, and a flammable package that can be placed inside.

Herein we also want to call for the days of action in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito! https://de.indymedia.org/node/253254

Croix-Daurade, France: Fire of an electric car charging station in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2023/01/13 by darknights

Croix Daurade, charging station on fire, if we don’t burn them, we’ll have the EPZ!

At the end of December 2022, while some people are driving a Tesla and are warm at home, we don’t have the money to pay our bills. To keep warm we made a good fire with a charging station for electric cars in Croix-Daurade.

The ZFE will prevent the poorest from accessing Toulouse under an ecological pretext. Driving a Zoe will only stop pollution in your dreams. The EPZ excludes the poor, the poor want to exclude the EPZ.
The State ecology goes through the all-electricity, in particular by the nuclear power, which is an industry of death. The death of the proles colonized in the uranium mines, the death of the production and management of waste, in short the death of the living which would be only a collateral damage.

Ten years ago, after the minor accident at Fukushima, fellow revolutionaries shot the CEO of an Italian company that exported nuclear technology in the knee. Today, one of them, Alfredo Cospito, is in jail and undergoing total isolation. For two months, he has been on hunger strike to alleviate his conditions of detention.

Strength to him, to Anna Beniamino who also assumed the jambization [Note to those who translated into Italian: Anna Beniamino has never assumed any jamming], and to all the comrades who fight against the nuclear.

Against the Empire of green capital, let us be Spartacus!

Lecce, Italy: Sabotage of electric car charging stations in solidarity with anarchists Alfredo Cospito, Anna Beniamino and Juan Sorroche

Posted on 2022/12/19 by darknights

We learn from the media that at least seven electric vehicle chargers, located in various places in Lecce, have been sabotaged and rendered unusable by foam. On some of the columns were found the inscription “For Alfredo, Anna, Juan,” in reference to the imprisoned anarchists on hunger strike against the 41 bis prison regime and the hostile life sentence (Alfredo Cospito, imprisoned under 41 bis in Bancali Prison in Sassari, has been on hunger strike to the bitter end since Oct. 20, Anna Beniamino has been on hunger strike in solidarity since Nov. 7, while Juan Sorroche has been on strike for a month, from Oct. 25 to Nov. 24). According to local media reports, the sabotage took place “starting from at least last Friday [Dec. 2].”

France: Numerous direct actions in solidarity with anarchist comrade Boris

Posted on 2022/09/18 - 2022/09/18 by darknights

Toulouse: Scopelec vehicle on fire in solidarity with Boris

This world is becoming more and more unbreathable every day. The techno-industrial system has a lot to do with it. In order not to be suffocated, on the night of September 12 to 13, we chose to attack. Under the gaze of the crows and the moon, we burned a Scopelec van.

At the moment of writing this communiqué, our thoughts flew to Boris who, after being locked up in state cages, continues to suffer repression by the judicial and medical authorities. The defenders of these institutions are seeking to deprive him of his autonomy in order to punish him for burning down cell towers and more generally for his hostility to their world.

If we want to stand in solidarity with people who are attacking domination, we also want to bear in mind that “their world” runs through us and that the struggle against gender oppression cannot be relegated to second place in our actions or our relationships.

Solidarity with the anarchist prisoners!

Toulouse: Action against the ZFE, in solidarity with Boris

In the night of 5 to 6 September, a charging point for electric cars was set fire to in the sept derniers area in Toulouse.

A nuclear shower has caused new mushrooms to spring up all over the metropolises, and Toulouse is going all out. Neither economic reasons nor the so-called “ecological” transition can justify either the social carnage or the destruction of the air and water.
Let the markets dry up instead of the rivers, let the birds sing and let the governance experts finally shut up.
