"I don’t believe in conspiracies, except for the ones that we’ve seen proven true (and those are usually proven true quickly enough). I don’t actually believe the rich are collectively plotting to just to kill us all after we’ve been rendered obsolete.

But I suspect none of them would mind if that’s what happens."

Birds Before the Storm

Nogle unge folk havde i onsdags sat sig ned foran hoveddøren til #Mærsk i København. Det var i protest mod firmaets leverancer af våben til Israel.

Politiet tæsker så bare løs på dem med knipler og hunde. Det er virkelig fucked up at se på: https://politiken.dk/danmark/art10842639/Knippelslag-regnede-ned-over-rolige-demonstranter

Her ser vi politiets sande rolle i samfundet: Det er ikke enkelte betjente, der overreagerer. Det kan vi se på at ingen bliver fyret og politichefen er ikke ude at undskylde bagefter. Det er heller ikke politiet som helhed, der er stukket af. Det kan vi se ved, at medierne gentager politiets PR-materiale, politikerne bakker dem op (nogle kritiserer endda voldsofrene) og akademikere forklarer, at politiets handlinger er lovlige.

Fuck politiet og fuck hele det lortesystem, der bakker op om dem!

»Det ligner, at de er i en total voldsrus«: Knippelslag regnede ned over rolige demonstranter

Ungdomsbevægelse overvejer at klage over politiet efter konfrontation ved Mærskbygning. Efter at have set video vurderer ekspert, at politiet holdt sig inden for loven.

Solidarity Without End

This year as we are marking the International Day of Solidarity with Marius Mason and All Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners we are thinking about the nature of solidarity as ever-changing and never-ending. Our solidarity is not just for those who are imprisoned, but for all those who are harassed, intimidated, deported, hunted, on the run, tortured, and even killed — not just for individuals but for the struggles they are a part of. Just as repression ebbs and flows and state tactics adapt, transform, and innovate, so must our practice of active solidarity. We must adapt to the changing terrain and needs of our movements.

Solidarity does not end when trial ends and a verdict is reached, when a hunger strike has gotten its demands met, or even when somebody is released from custody back into the arms of their family and friends. The consequences of state repression last long beyond big moments and media attention. Whenever one cycle of struggle winds down as the target of the state, another will take its place. Whenever one comrade is released from prison, another will be taken in. Our support must continue to ripple out beyond our friends and immediate networks. It must extend beyond the borders of states into all lands and territories where people are fighting. It must expand beyond the present moment, honoring comrades of the past and thinking of what legacy we will leave for those who come after us.

While our tactics and strategies change and evolve over time, we must always meet the moment with an impulse to push ahead and not remain waiting. We may take moments of evasion and defensive posture, only to come back stronger and more intransigent. The context we find ourselves is always changing, but our purpose remains the same. Solidarity without end means always acting towards the goal of destroying the prevailing order.

The stakes remain the same even as the terrain shifts. The threats remain the same even if they are becoming more common. Previously short sentences have become longer with terrorist designations and enhancements. Camps develop beside prisons. Policing becomes a more obvious occupation. Murders become genocides. This isn’t new, but really a return to a previously escalated state that built the settler-colonial empires. The far right reactionaries of the world have been regaining influence and power for quite some time, building off of the fear of concurrent crises, while the moderates try to cling to a modern status quo by treading water in a rising, turbulent tide. The crises are real — so are the economic downturns and increasing shortages, and so will be the violence handed down from on high as authorities try to maintain and further centralize their power.

Anarchists and others who speak and act out are already being explicitly targeted in Iran, Russia, Belarus, Indonesia, Italy, Greece, Mexico, the US, and elsewhere. Those who seek to maintain the status quo cry out, “they can’t do that!” We acknowledge they always have, if only on smaller and more polite scales in the recent past. The fear of those in power is also being realized, as we see the proliferations of uprisings around the world crashing like waves upon an eroding beach. We see how authority is vulnerable in crisis as the fight returns to old venues like workplaces and barricades, while we also plot out new avenues of attack.

The consequences for acting against the dominant order seem to be escalating, so we are pushed to acknowledge what we’ve always known to be true: half measures are a trap. Collaborating with the left and moderate statists on their terms is just empowering them to their own coercion and top-down violence should they win out. We find productive accomplices when we act on anarchist principles, building empowerment of everyone against any new authority. The power over our lives must remain in our own hands — unmediated — and it seems a great deal of people acknowledge this when data centers and artificial intelligence become a focus of resistance.

The ongoing climate catastrophe was acknowledged by our imprisoned fighters decades ago while new technologies like AI continue the ecocidal course. Preparing for the shortages, we shell up to counterattack — ideally without fortifying to the point of not being adaptable. As the terrain shifts we can remain mobile, without waiting for the new repression. Solidarity without end is anticipatory as much as it is active.

Confronting the real stakes of our struggles – life and death – need not lead us down the path of constant pessimism. Instead, it can provide us with the gift of appreciation for each small victory and mundane, beautiful thing. This too, is a cycle of solidarity. There are days that break our hearts. There are days that once again fill them up again so much we fear they might burst out of our chests. Each comrade is precious. As is every release, acquittal, dropped charge, or non-cooperating plea to get time-served, each small victory won through a strike, each collective action or bold individual revolt despite everything telling them its not worth it. We must allow every one to bring a smile to our faces, even while so many others remain caged. We must allow each small victory to take its place in the narrative of our struggles, connecting past to future. We must let this appreciation give us strength and daring. This year, we are celebrating the recent release of Hybachi LeMar, Peppy, and Casey Brezik. Marius Mason, after nearly two decades in federal prison, is set to be released to a halfway house in May of this year. Charges are starting to get dismissed for the Stop Cop City defendants in the U.S. Monica Caballero in Chile is up for another chance at parole. Charges have been dismissed against a comrade in Munich and 5 anarchists in Belarus have been released. Active, principles, and expansive solidarity continues across the world, especially exemplified by comrades in Greece around the Ampelokipi trial...

Så godt at nogen bliver ved med at presse Mærsk!

Men DR. "Aktivisterne mener, at Mærsk er med til at fragte våbendele til Israel. " Nej, det er er ikke noget de mener. Det er veldokumenteret af bla.

do you ever just think about watersheds

I'm an old battered rat surviving late state capitalism, like most of us here, I presume.

Sometimes it is dangerous to try and be helpful, especially if the best help that can be offered is not in line with the interests and laws of capitalist states.

This account was created to safely share subversive activist tips for anarchists, antifascists, anti-capitalists and thus be the splinter in the eye of our capitalist overlords.

Don't expect much interaction. I've seen my share of human output in previous incarnations, and I don't care to interact with it much here.

Your replies will be read, but hardly reacted to. If you suggest something insightful in a dm, I may write a post inspired by it, or edit an existing post where I was ignorant. You may get a nice star.

The intent here is to undermine centralized authority, legal or illegal, and create a naturally survivable environment for critters like this one. We'll see how that goes.

Total societal collapse, but with as low a body count as possible, that's what we should seek.

May we thrive in the ruins of the empire.

Why is it almost impossible to eat a #peanutbutter sandwich if it's just bread and peanut butter? It stick to the top of my mouth and is very difficult to chew and swallow. But if I add a little jam or a slice of banana - not even enough to cover the peanut butter - then everything flows smoothly. What is the cause of this strange phenomenon?
