Athens, Greece: Claim of responsibility for attacks on real estate agencies, Airbnb and My Flat buildings by Anarchists

Claim of responsibility for attacks on real estate agencies, Airbnb and My Flat buildings

In a world where all goods, material and non-material, are slowly being commodified in the most brutal and cynical way, it was only a matter of time before we saw a coordinated effort by the State and capital to transform our basic needs into class privileges.

Alongside the privatisation of electricity and water supplies, we are witnessing the invasion of large real estate investors in the centre of Athens, who are trading properties at an uncontrolled pace and these are basically included in short-term rental platforms. This has resulted in thousands of people being displaced from their homes either due to inability to cope with rent increases, or through evictions, or forced relocations as the owner chooses selling or Airbnb.

In short, in an attempt to squeeze every possible perspective of profit out of our neighbourhoods, houses are being converted into tourist accommodation and of course the local city is being reshaped to adapt to the new needs of the neighbourhood… Hipster shops of all kinds are springing up all around to sell the neighbourhood lifestyle to eager consumers while we see our squares and parks being choked with their shops and tables.

Greece: Taking responsibility by ALF in Thessaloniki

On the evening of June 13, in New Beach, Thessaloniki, we vandalized the car of businessman Georgios Galis, who owns a company that sells livestock equipment. The company in question, through its website, advertises the upgraded and modern machinery that contributes to the best conditions in livestock units.

For us, animal farms are prisons, in which hundreds of millions of
animals around the world are forced to endure a life with the sole aim of exploitation by humans for their milk or eggs and their death for their meat and skin. And all this to end up to the human consumers.

Information about the new prosecution against us and our court trial coming.. (Athens,Greece)

actforfree received in English and spreed :

—————-

Human dignity is a term we meet in the dictionary, and it defines the choice of a person to act based on solidarity, punctuality, consciousness and the uncompromising struggle against the enemies of freedom.

The history of all hitherto societies is the history of struggles for dignity, a social – class war.

Free man or slave, patrician or plebeian, invader or resistance fighter, in one word: oppressor or oppressed, are in constant opposition to one another. A continuous struggle which is expressed either covertly, or openly.

The ruling classes of each age use justice and the legal system to neutralise those who, with their struggle, question the status quo of those above, those who choose to react to the unjust.

Grete chania,Greece: Snails released from Halkiadakis supermarket chain

Snails released from Halkiadakis supermarket chain

Snails are the only animals sold live in supermarkets. Most are hibernating, huddled together somewhere next to the vegetables. A few have woken up and are sticking out their antennae that find stacked shells and nets. If they had a voice, you would pay attention to them. Somewhere between fasting, gourmetism and Cretan tradition, the next stage is to buy them, soak them, get rid of the dead ones and boil the rest alive.

We “see” the rest of the animals in the supermarket dead in the refrigerators and on shelves. Their chopped and packaged bodies and derivatives are passed by in the aisles, since for the depraved human-consumer, this horrible reality is a common sight. Their corpses are completely disconnected from the animal itself that was tortured and killed in order for civilized man to buy it, without dirtying his hands or his conscience. As objects, the other animals are placed as marketable products, all at his disposal always according to his pocket, to cover his imaginary needs.

Rhodes island,Greece: Dying in a slaughterhouse

Rhodes, Dying in a slaughterhouse

Slaughterhouses are factories of death. No power, no system, no habit legitimizes the slaughter of innocents. Every living being has the right to life — without exception, without negotiation. We are not asking, we are demanding. We are not retreating, we are fighting. Our struggle will not end until the last slaughterhouse is demolished. Until violence ceases to be normal.

Δεν ζητάμε, απαιτούμε. Δεν υποχωρούμε, συγκρουόμαστε. Ο αγώνας μας δεν τελειώνει μέχρι να γκρεμιστεί και το τελευταίο σφαγείο. Μέχρι να πάψει η βία να είναι κανονικότητα.

Volos, Greece: Attack on a bank branch by Anarchist Action Group.

Attack on a bank branch

In the early morning hours of Wednesday, May 28, we placed gas canisters at Alpha Bank in Larissis Street in the city of Volos.

We dedicate this action to our comrades outside but above all to those within the walls, to those who fled, to the people of our class who are killed and sacrificed daily because of the capitalist machine on the altar of profit, as well as to all the rebels of this land.

(Greece) Taking responsibility for incendiary barrage – COMMANDO “KYRIAKOS XYMITIRIS”

The comrades lost in struggle live on in the flames of the revolution.

Following the red path of blood we go back to 10/31, 2024. Following the traces of blood we travel in time and space. Arcadia Street, noon, the armed revolutionary Kyriakos Xymitiris leaves his last breath of life and freedom in this rotten world and travels. He will travel forever, he will fly over the metropolises armed with will and determination for the Cause. From 10/31, therefore, the world of struggle remains torn apart. The dead revolutionaries are honoured in the fire of struggle, on the barricades, in the explosions. And those who are left behind struggle with the ghosts of the living and the corpses of the undead, confront injustice, exploitation, the authoritarian network of relations. Until the end.

On 31/10, comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris lost his life fighting for an unsubjugated life, trying and struggling with all his strength to attack the world of power. Not safely from a secure position, not within the sanctuary of non-consequences nor with words and hollow proclamations. But using means of struggle that cost life and freedom.

Let’s take queer history into our own hands: Ballroom Culture (Greece)

We publish the text “Let’s take queer history into our own hands: Ballroom Culture” in english that was written in 2023 and presented in Antiviosi squat in Ioannina. The text was translated for BAB2025. We take a look at the history and the historical context in which ballroom culture was created and flourished and how we value it as part of the queer experience. We also draw a parallel to the Transvestite pageants that were held in Greece from some available sources. The text in greek can be found here: https://athens.indymedia.org/post/1623133/

———————————

Let’s take queer history into our own hands: Ballroom Culture

The beginnings of the drag ball culture can be traced back to the second half of the 19th century in the USA. The first masquerade queer ball was held in 1869 at the Hamilton Lodge Hall in Harlem, New York, where 500 same-sex couples attended to dance. Its format was similar to that of a ball of the elite.

Balls as a form of entertainment were maintained in the following years, and by the beginning of the next century they had taken the form of drag balls, i.e. fashion shows with performances in which drag queens participated. The events were organized by white gay men and were spaces accepting to homosexual and bisexual visibility, and even trans identities. From the late 19th century, with the abolition of slavery, balls were able to be multiracial, which potentially meant the gradual participation of black people in them.

[GR/EN] Κουίρινγκ του χώρου/ Queering of space (Greece)

We publish the text “Queering of space: Historical and militant structures and communities” which was presented in the context of Antiviosi squat’s 14th Birthday in October 2022, Ioannina and was translated in english for BAB2025.

—————————————————————————-

[ΕΝ] Queering of space: Historical and militant structures and communities.

Queer struggles and stories have always been omitted or even subdued from the tellings of history, resulting in both the erasure of the radical past of the queer liberation movement and its connection with self-organization and anti-authority, resulting in the loss of its subversive multidimensional beginnings. We, therefore, consider it important to highlight a part of queer history which is connected to squatting, anti-authority, and direct action as a means of creating (reimagining) a world we want to live in.

Queer identity, like any other sexuality and gender identity, is considered a purely personal matter. Neo-Marxists have disparaged it from political analysis on the pretext that desire is a matter of body politics alone, and thus it hinders our engagement with more “serious” issues. They relegated sexuality to the bodily/local/personal which they considered less worthy of attention than the class/global/political. Ergo, the exploration of sexuality relative to space has been underdeveloped in the discussions concerning globalization and transnational capitalism. As if the division into local and global is natural, and the struggles involved in each are unrelated. At the same time, and perhaps more calamitously, the methods that various(marginalized) communities used to “conquer” a space they could belong and be able to act for themselves (and their communities) were ignored.

Greece: 10 years later, the memory of Spyros Dravilas is our strength and pride! (Greece)

10 years after his last battle on May 29, 2015 in N. Anchialos, the memory of Spyros Dravilas remains vivid: opening paths to freedom from prisons and fighting his tormentors, expropriating the property of the legal bandits and attacking their structures and their uniformed protectors.

Without any back-up, “dancing on the shark’s wing” with that unparalleled boldness and weapon, that unforgettable smile of his soul, with which he flew forever, breaking the circle of his persecutors, defeating them again!

Spyros, we will remember you forever. Your memory is our strength and pride!

Spyros Christodoulou (Chania Prisons) and comrades

Translated by Act for freedom now!

Actforfree notes: Just like Spiros Dravilas… He had tasted it from the age of 21 when he first came into contact with the harsh reality of incarceration. Since then, with many years on his back as a prisoner, escapee and fugitive up to the age of 34 when he consciously rejected the lengthly deprivation of his freedom.

He refused, like very few can, to see himself walking
through those miserable corridors and cells of the correctional
hell-holes, leaving the last years of an unsubjugated youth in the
modern galleys.

Mauricio Morales & Kyriakos Xymitiris Forever Alive in the Social War (Thessaloniki,Greece)

Banner hanging in Thessaloniki for the 16th anniversary of the death of Comrade Mauricio Morales in Chile

No one will save us from the desert.
Only this promise to ourselves
how we will die enemies
an oath to life.
As long as there are those who are lost
for the purposes of that
which others said was a cause
we too have ignition.
For the conspiracies that died at birth
to those who are missing
to those who were captured
to those who have not forgotten the colour of fire.

In the early hours of May 22, 2009, in Chile, anarchist comrade Mauricio Morales died when a device that he intended to place in the Police Guard School exploded in the bag in which he was carrying it. He was a comrade who gave his life to the anarchist Cause, spreading propaganda, supporting imprisoned activists, and participating in every aspect of the struggle.

At noon on October 31, the anarchist armed fighter Kyriakos Xymitiris lost his life in the battle for social and class liberation when an explosive device detonated inside an apartment on Arkadias Street in the Ampelokipi area of Athens.

Athens, Greece: Taking responsibility for the incendiary attacks on the houses of the politician Maximos Charakopoulos and the cop Giannis Meidanis

We take responsibility for the double attack with low-powered incendiary devices at dawn on 14/05/25 at the entrances of the apartment buildings where the MP of the New Democracy Maximos Charakopoulos and the uniformed scum of the Greek National Police, Giannis Meidanis, reside.

Our moves were not at all accidental as they are a first sign of aggressive solidarity with those arrested for the events at the DAP-NDFK event at the Law School. Our attack had been decided to take place some weeks later. However, we found it necessary to bring it forward because of the events, redefining the climate of fear that Chrysochoidis in unbridled collaboration with the media wants to imbue us with and returning fear to the eyes of those who should be blooming. Because for every visit you make to the homes of your comrades and comrades-in-arms, we will make a visit to yours.

EDITORIAL

We have entered a condition in which the war rhetorics, actions and policies are proliferating and presented by the dominant groups as a ‘natural’ outcome – for some of its actors inevitable and for others legitimate – of the immediately preceding era, that of fear and imperilment. Now, the economic plunder, the strategies of customs tariffs and inflation, with all the techno-scientific controls at their side, are expressed in warlike terms.

On the 3rd of May 2025, at 5 am in the morning, Snizana Paraskevaidou lost her life because of the premature detonation of an explosive device she was placing outside a branch of the National Bank of Greece in Thessaloniki. The tragic death of this comrade lead to a widespread media terror-lust and so far, two arrests and the search of the cell of imprisoned anarchist comrade Fotis Tziotzis. We recognise and remember Snizana as a fighter and a heroine who died in battle, whose name and life is not forgotten.
