Statement from Anarchist prisoner Toby Shone 10th May 2022 (UK)

Statement from Toby Shone
10th May 2022
Thanks to all those who came to express their solidarity and rage at Bristol Crown Court on Friday. After 15 months of solitary
confinement, it was the most amount of comrades I had seen in a long time. Your strength and warmth stays in my heart.
This was a major defeat and humiliation for the anti-terrorist
prosecutors and police, but we should not rest easy. A state methodology has been put together which they will use to attack others in the anarchist space when they can.
Operation Adream is also still not closed and so we should remain ready. There are many lessons to be learnt here and a more complete analysis will come out in time.
I am due for release in late December and will be on license until
November 2024. The prison Offender Management Unit (OMU) confirmed to me that the anti-terrorist units still intend to keep me under surveillance after my release. I am sure they will try to take revenge, but with the love and complicity of all the comrades, we’ll turn up the heat. Liberty and discord are one and the same. Always unrepentant, always anarchist.
Nothing is over, everything continues.

[ES+IT+EN+FR ] En contra del 41 bis, solidaridad revolucionaria con el anarquista Alfredo Cospito (Italy)

EN CONTRA DEL 41 BIS, SOLIDARIDAD REVOLUCIONARIA CON EL ANARQUISTA ALFREDO COSPITO
Este jueves 5 de mayo el preso anarquista Alfredo Cospito recibe la notificación del cambio de régimen penitenciario al que está sometido: se dispone para el la aplicación del 41 bis. En este momento Alfredo está aun detenido en la cárcel de Terni, en el módulo adecuado para el 41 bis. Aun no sabemos si este será su destino final o si aun le moverán a otro instituto penitenciario. Cómo previsto por la norma, esta disposición desciende directamente por la ministra de justicia Marta Cartabia, ya presidente de la Corte Constitucional. Vamos a recordarlo muy rápidamente: el 41 bis es un régimen penitenciario especialmente aflictivo, que, para prevenir cualquier forma de comunicación, prevé el aislamiento, la ausencia de sociabilidad y de cualquier actividad para los internos, el silencio, intervención del correo, una hora de visita por mes con cristal integral y telefonillo, y además la grabación de la misma, 10 minutos de llamada mensual, sólo en caso de que no se haya recibido la visita, que los familiares autorizados tienen que efectuar desde un cuartel de Carabinieri. A los internos está prohibido recibir periódicos y libros, para prevención la gran parte del correo es intervenido y bloqueado a causa su contenido; está prohibido comprar periódicos y hay una fuerte limitación de los objetos que se puedan poseer al interior de la celda (libros, ropa, comida, papel y bolígrafo, etc).
No es la primera vez que este régimen se les aplica a unos revolucionarios: en 2006 cuatro presos de las Brigadas Rojas fueron encerrados en estas estructuras (una de ellos, Diana Blefari, se suicidó en 2009, nada más salir del 41 bis). Es un antecedente que, no obstante las movilizaciones, aun no pudimos desarticular.
En estas primeras horas, llenas de rabia, queremos subrayar dos asuntos.
Por un lado, tomamos actas de ese ataque personal, físico, a un compañero anarquista que en estos 10 años nunca bajó su cabeza: un compañero que revindicó con su cabeza bien alta el haber disparado en las piernas del administrador delegado de Ansaldo Nucleare, el ingeniero Adinolfi. El hecho de que no conseguiron aislar a Alfredo y de no haber podido callar su aporto revolucionario ha sido una espina en el costado de los investigadores. Esto conllevó en los últimos años más medidas cautelares en contra suya, cómo la intervención del correo y la notificación en la cárcel de otra orden de detención por la Operación Sibilla el 11 de noviembre pasado, con la cual las fuerzas represivas han intentado hacer desaparecer una revista y unas publicaciones que, en los años, han dado voz a los artículos y a los escritos del compañero. Al Alfredo, tenemos que hacer llegar la solidaridad de un movimiento que no está vencido, que no le ha olvidado, que no le deja a solas; tenemos que conseguir que esta solidaridad pueda con los vetos y con el aislamiento.

Spain: V Encuentro Contra el Sistema Tecno Industrial y su Mundo. 27,28 y 29 de mayo. Madrid / V Meeting Against the Techno Industrial System and its World. May 27,28 and 29. Madrid

V ANARCHIST MEETING AGAINST THE TECHNO-INDUSTRIAL SYSTEM AND ITS WORLD

During the 27th, 28th and 29th of May will take place the “V Anarchist Meeting against the Technoindustrial System and its world”. A place where we can meet, get to know each other, debate, spread and sharpen our ideas against the technical organization of the world. We intend the meeting to be one more tool to fight the techno-scientific-industrial system, because we think that the field of confrontation should be concentrated in the field of technological progress, since it is and will be what will trace the present and future dynamics of domination over each and every one of the aspects of our lives: social, political, economic and environmental. During the duration of the conference there will be a space for distributors (those who want to set up a distributor in the space are kindly requested to confirm their presence in advance) and 100% vegetarian canteens. In the coming days we will disseminate the full program of the meeting, which this year will be held at PVA Sputnik (C / Gonzalez soto, 21, Vallecas, Madrid).

Historically, the systems of domination have taken advantage of moments of crisis or catastrophe to transform the world, to carry out a metamorphosis of it. In other times this metamorphosis was carried out when capitalism was threatened by the advance of the class struggle or by the need for economic and productive changes to maximize profits. In our time we see how technocracy takes advantage of emergencies, be they energetic, sanitary, economic, climatic… to accelerate the techno-totalitarianism that the machine-world implies. A new “great transformation” is underway, driven by the techno-financial elites, a Great Reset. Restarting life in all its dimensions to impose a new way of life and a new world under the imperatives of the 4th Industrial Revolution, that is, restarting life to submit it to the machine-world that seeks to optimize the human being and all living things to turn them into just another cog in the machine-world. Once nature has been artificialized and controlled, the objective now is the human being. Continue reading Spain: V Encuentro Contra el Sistema Tecno Industrial y su Mundo. 27,28 y 29 de mayo.

JOIN US IN THE HAMBACHER FOREST FOR A GATHERING FOR ANIMAL LIBERATION! 21-24 of July 2022

FOREST ANTI-SPE DAYS #3
CHAOS AND RAGE, SMASH EVERY CAGE
BORDERLESS CALL:
JOIN US IN THE HAMBACHER FOREST FOR A GATHERING FOR ANIMAL LIBERATION!
In the factory farms and vivisection labs, our nonhuman comrades are already fighting back. The time is ripe – let’s share skills and
perspectives on how to support their resistance! By “anti-speciesism” we don’t mean online activism, vegan capitalism or cop-hugging pacifism – we’re opening a space to plot against human supremacism, and we’ve no need for bureaucratic organizations of any kind.
Many animal rights groups have become a hotbed for
fascist/homophobic/cissexist/macho/white supremacist/colonialist views and behaviour. Others promote liberalism, the state or single out human activists as animal “saviours”. We want to build on two years of anti-spe days explicitly pushing against these tendencies,
uncompromising in our rejection of all forms of oppression and
domestication. Let’s meet each other and make some trouble!
You can find us again in the Hambacher Forest, one of Europe’s largest autonomous spaces, still squatted after almost 10 years. (It’s a forest so be ready to camp).
We want the workshops to be more horizontal this year – you can help us by proposing your own! Some ideas we have so far:

New electrical sabotage: Inovallée targeted in turn?
Le Dauphiné, April 14, 2022

After the large high-tech companies of the Crolles basin last week, it is most probably Inovallée, the main technology park of the Grenoble region, which was the target, on Wednesday, of a new sabotage action carried out on an electrical installation. A destructive action which, according to our information, is not in doubt, the public prosecutor of Grenoble having moreover, two hours after the facts, confirmed to the Dauphiné Libéré that the hypothesis of a “criminal act” was privileged. The fire broke out at about 3:30 pm in the enclosure of a high voltage source station of Enedis located at 19, chemin du Vieux-Chêne in Meylan. This installation is located between company buildings and the A41 motorway, in the heart of a technology park with around 380 companies working in the field of digital technologies.

Lacroix-Falgarde (Haute -Garonne): the antenna did not withstand the shock

Lacroix-Falgarde. The burned antenna must be completely rebuilt

La Dépêche, April 22, 2022

On the night of Friday 25 to 26 February, the telecommunications tower overlooking Lacroix-Falgarde was destroyed by a fire of criminal origin, rendering the 4G/5G antennas of Bouygues, Free and SFR and those of TDF for TV unusable.

In mid-March, temporary repair work began with the installation of new antennas on the burnt out tower. Today, the antenna’s supporting structure is too damaged for the equipment initially installed to be restored to its original state. For example the TV service cannot be reinstalled. In order to regain full functionality, a new antenna has to be rebuilt in order to be able to re-equip it properly.

Moscow, Russia – Military enlistment Office set on fire

Fire against the military enlistment Office

During the night a man set the local office of military enlistment on fire in Lukhovitsy, Moscow region. Here is his declaration:

The other day I set the military register and enlistment office on fire in Lukhovitsy, Moscow region, and filmed it on GoPro. I painted the gates with the colours of the Ukrainian flag and wrote: “I won’t go to kill my brothers!”; then I climbed the fence, poured petrol at the entrance, destroyed the windows and threw molotov bottles inside. The aim was to destroy the archive with conscripts’ personal data, which was in the office. This should prevent mobilization in the district. I hope I won’t see my conscripts in jail or on death lists. Continue reading Moscow, Russia – Military enlistment Office set on fire

Poster : I don’t vote

A4 color poster, found on Indymedia Lille, March 10, 2022

I don’t vote

I don’t vote. Because I don’t want to choose a master, to choose the one who will decide for me what is good for me, and will force me to respect his choices, which he will pass off as my own. I don’t want the majority to determine my servitude, for the cattle to build the fences that enclose them and appoint those who will rule me too, no matter what I think.

I don’t vote because I don’t want the world they impose on me, I don’t recognize the idea of nation, of a people, of citizenship, considering that the States always manage to fabricate identities that give the illusion of a unity in a population. Continue reading Poster : I don’t vote (France)

Messina, Sicily – Protest against Mattarella [president of the Italian republic]

Mattarella guarantor of rearmament

NOT IN OUR NAME

On 13th April a celebration for the 50 years of Gazzetta del Sud, where the president of the republic was present, was met with protests in Messina.

After a meeting against war in Piazza Municipio we moved closer to the Teatro Vittorio Emanuele at the start of the celebration, in spite of the fact that the city centre was militarized and the streets adjacent to the theatre were blocked for Mattarella’s arrival.

We tried to oppose this circus of power by unfurling a banner, shouting chants against rearmament and military bases, which are everywhere on the island, and improvising a cacerolazo with pans, bowls and spoons. Police seized the banner and broke the microphone used for speeches after about ten minutes. Continue reading Messina, Sicily – Protest against Mattarella [president of the Italian republic]
