Chile: Text by Marco Camenisch for the day of Memory and Kontrakultura

Text by Marco Camenisch for the day of Memory and Kontrakultura

Dear comrades and brothers and sisters,

To begin with, thank you very much for this initiative of commemoration by our dear compa and brother Punky Mauri and for being able to participate from a distance (geographically!) with some poor words.

On the one hand, commemorations do not excite me too much. Because dear compa and brother Punki Mauri is present and alive in my mind and in my life many days of each year. At this moment or another or without specific occasion as a presence that gives me courage in moments of courage, joy and sadness, reminding me of our common courage, our common struggle in the past.

And present and future! For this reason, on the other hand, this commemoration is very just and important. Comrade and brother Punki Mauri with all our other fallen reminds us and continues to live in our common duty (individual duty in front of our conscience!) to consolidate and give continuity to this struggle in a historical moment in which the situations, the reasons and the necessity of our resistance and struggle become more and more urgent and just as the only hope for our life, for the life of our planet! And for living a dignified life! Reminding us that we are nature, freedom and life that defends itself by attacking those who definitely want to exterminate us!

In this sense, this commemoration is very important for the continuity of our struggle, transmitting from generation to generation our experiences and “historical” memories as a living contribution to the present and future struggles.

And alone, but firmly, in these struggles of all our past, present and future fighting generations our brother Mauri and all our fallen comrades and brothers and sisters remain and will always remain alive!

With a warm and strong embrace to all of you,

Marco/martino

Mezzovico, Switzerland: ‘Swiss neutrality does not exist.’ Incendiary attack on ten civil defense vehicles and three army vehicles (June 18, 2023)

Posted on 2023/07/11 by darknights

Swiss neutrality does not exist

Switzerland, which regards itself as neutral so it can maintain its privileged role as the world’s financial hub, actually bears a lot of responsibility for many wars around the world. The Swiss arms industry exports weapons everywhere, even to countries where there are armed conflicts. Lately it has even relocated some manufacturing facilities abroad so as to circumvent laws that would “ban” arms exports to countries at war, for example to Ukraine, aligning itself fully with NATO’s warmongering interventionist rhetoric.

Switzerland’s role as a financial marketplace and leading commodity trader makes this state a major player in the devastation of the planet and the plundering of the resources of countries in the global south, fueling conflicts and forcing people to leave their countries of origin. Not content with sowing misery all over the world, it prides itself with “defending” its borders against the migration “threat,” with its military guarding the borders and civil defense soldiers running deportation centers.

Campaigns against compulsory conscription in Switzerland have been pacified by the introduction of civil protection and civil service. We believe that anarchist antimilitarism should not be limited to the rejection of the military or even to total desertion from every obligation this state imposes on us but should turn into attack.

For this reason, in the night from the 17th to the 18th June, in Mezzovico, Ticino, we have set fire to ten vehicles of the civil protection, which were totally destroyed and three military vehicles, which regrettably only partially burned.

We state with strength of our ideas and actions our solidarity with all anarchists taken hostage by the state and take this opportunity to greet those on the hidden paths of freedom. Those who struggle will never be alone.

Swiss neutrality does not exist. Where there is capitalism, there is war.

Death to the state, long live Anarchy

Lugano, Switzerland: Claim of incendiary attack on a university van in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2023/01/13 by darknights

In the early hours of Tuesday, January 10, far from assembly fanfare, a van at the University of Lugano was attacked with fire in solidarity with fellow anarchist Alfredo Cospito who has been on hunger strike for 83 days.

The choice of the faculty was not accidental, in fact the complex that was attacked houses classrooms and offices of the Faculty of Computer Science (www.inf.usi.ch) of the Faculty of Biomedical Sciences (www.biomed.usi.ch/it), the Department of Innovative Technologies of SUPSI (www.supsi.ch/dti/) and the Dalle Molle Institute of Artificial Intelligence Studies (IDSIA)(www.idsia.ch).

Against the increasingly deadly future proposed by society and civilization, the only viable path is that of attack.

Strength Thanos Chatziangelou
Strength Ivan Alocco
Strength to all imprisoned Anarchists and imprisoned revolutionary fighters

A warm greeting to those who find themselves birds of the forest
May this little hearth warm you

Long live Anarchy
Long live the Black International
Death to the technoworld
