Introduction
[…]we enter a vicious circle with mournful calls to a miserable bartering with the State one wanted to fight.
When individuals find themselves alone at night, no longer supported by “collective strength”, the arms of Morpheus transform the imprisoned comrades one wanted to support, to whom one wanted to express one’s solidarity, into a real nightmare with no escape.
So! Should we no longer show solidarity to imprisoned comrades given that it serves no end? Continue reading About Munich 2019-2025 : Petrol, Printer Ink and Paranormal Activity
These pages address the excesses of repression in the Bavarian kingdom and attempt to view the repressive strikes in the context of the broader state militarization taking place. Furthermore, this publication also touches upon the history of censorship in the BRD, the spectre of “eco-anarchism” and sabotage, what actually sucks about wind turbines and how it might be possible to deal with increasing censorship measures against subversive publications in the future.
First and foremost, however, this publication is above all a declaration and expression of solidarity with the repressed anarchist projects, the imprisoned comrades M. and N., as well as all the other anarchists impacted by repression in the Bavarian kingdom.
Since 2022, there have been a series of repressive strikes against anarchists in Munich. The preliminary highlight was the arrest of the anarchists N. and M. at the end of February 2025 on charges of publishing the newspaper Zündlumpen with another person. The Munich Public Prosecutor General’s Office decided to prosecute and censor Zündlumpen and its alleged editors as a criminal organization. The crimes committed by the criminal association of the Zündlumpen editorial team are to have published and distributed incitement, counseling, and condoning of criminal acts.
If it is a crime to endorse violence against this murderous system, then we are all guilty as charged.

From February 2019 to September 2021, “Anarchistisches Wochenblatt Zündlumpen” [“Zündlumpen Anarchist Periodical”] was published in Munich, at first on a weekly basis, and at increasingly greater intervals over time, but also with an ever increasing page count. It was never really clear whether Zündlumpen was more of a street paper or a discussion paper for anarchists – it included elements of both approaches, depending on the issue, sometimes veering more in one direction and sometimes the other. The texts were both introductory and in-depth, new and old, translations, analysis and commentary on current local events as well as happenings from further afield, communiqués, instructions, discussion texts and polemics as well as news from Munich and all over the world, from torched e-scooters in a Munich park to prison riots in Italy, along with photos of graffiti – the “Graffiti of the Week” – were wildly compiled.
The Munich paper underwent quite a few developments throughout its existence. Apart from several radical changes in design and format, it evolved from a weekly local anarchist paper encompassing various leftist tendencies which covered one A3 page, into a discussion paper of dozens to sometimes even hundreds of pages in length, starting more or less at the beginning of “covid”. It was notorious for its combative style, which formulated a radical critique of the covid measures and all of their supporters, whether they call themselves anarchist or not, and it reinforced and developed this critique over time with ever more detailed and in-depth analyses.

The autonomous demonstration has returned to Philadelphia. On June 10th and June 14th respectively, two self organized autonomous demonstrations were called to fight back against ICE and in solidarity with the rebellion in Los Angeles. To read a better understanding of what went down, I recommend you read the Unicorn riot account (https://unicornriot.ninja/2025/philadelphia-police-crack-down-on-anti-ice-marches-twice-in-one-week/) and an article I have deep disagreements with (https://phillypartisan.com/2025/06/15/headless-courage-anti-ice-protests-vs-police-brutality/). Both give brief overviews of what happened at these demos.
As an older anarchist, I was glad to see younger comrades organizing against ICE in a militant fashion. It is a rare thing to see publicly organized autonomous demonstrations in the United States despite the fact that they are common in many other places like Latin America or Europe. Autonomous demonstrations are critical for real combative street movements. For over a decade, the activist/organizer culture has plagued Philadelphia’s street movements with their cowardice and liberalism.

A few words about the Exarchia riots on 12th April 2025
In the evening of April 12th, we chose to confront the forces of repression in the streets of Exarchia. This conflict erupted in a climate of intense police presence in the neighbourhood by the state and attempts to instill fear among those who resist.
Exarchia constitutes an area claimed by the state and capital of all kinds (tourist-hotels, restaurants, bars, construction, housing-real estate, airbnb). By fast-track procedures, especially since ND has been at the helm of the state but also with increased acceleration from the covid and post-covid era, a relentless attack has been taking place on the characteristics of the place in an attempt to extirpate the fighting past of the movement, the insurrectional tradition and riots. Beyond the presence and attacks of the cops this is also carried out through territorial claims by the state with the eviction of the squats (in which SYRIZA was also a participant). This state/investors’ attack consists of the elements of repression toward the people in struggle, the displacement of anyone that ‘does not fit’ and cannot withstand the cost of housing and the establishing of a sterilized reality characterized by investment, over-consumption, surveillance, violent ‘touristification’, hipsterism, alternativism and police reppression.

Two years of Switch-Off – an evaluation
April 2024
It has been two years since we first spoke. The call was made in the middle of the ongoing strategy debate in the climate movement. At that time, after Hambi, Danni and directly after Lützerath, the potential of mass actions seemed to have been exhausted for many. In the context of these and other climate protest and mass actions, we wanted to propose a project with a focus on decentralized and direct actions.
At this point in time, the view of and fear of the impending climate collapse made it clear to us that radical methods and an intensification of revolutionary practice within the climate movement were urgently needed.
We formulated anti-state, autonomous, anarchist perspectives on sabotage and wanted to incorporate these more strongly.
In terms of content, we focused on an anti-colonial and technology-critical analysis. We were inspired by indigenous struggles and their practices resisting against (neo-)colonial exploitation and the destruction of their territories. Colonial exploitation is not only part of the racist ideological history of the West, but continues to be part of the economic and imperialist expansion efforts of large corporations such as Deutsche Bahn with the Tren Maya megaproject. With our analysis and call, we stood in solidarity with international struggles. In the ongoing destruction of the earth, we saw the necessity of attacking industrial infrastructures and the possibilities of a strengthening international points of reference in these struggles.

“An extra eye on the network”: how SNCF is using drones to monitor its railway tracks
Le Figaro, May 3, 2025
The rendezvous is at 11pm in the middle of nowhere, in an undisclosed location. There, on the eve of major departures for the long weekend, the SNCF is organizing a rather special surveillance operation, using a drone at the intersection of several high-speed railway lines. High-quality equipment resembling a small plane, capable of flying more than 100 meters above the ground and more than ten kilometers away from its pilot, making it invisible to even the sharpest eyes. Equipped with a thermal sensor and able to see “as in daylight” despite the advanced darkness, it can spot the slightest intruder as well as confirm that the catenaries and other technical installations are in a good condition. “The advantage of the drone is that it can monitor a large area in a very short time, and possibly detect anything abnormal,” explains SNCF Réseau’s Executive Vice President Projects, Maintenance and Operations Olivier Bancel.
The aim of this operation? To prevent the slightest risk in these tense times, but above all to communicate the SNCF’s ability to take advantage of new technologies to protect its 28,000 kilometers of track. As we watch, the exercise begins shortly before midnight, and the drone takes off. A few meters away, the aircraft spots an unmarked car in the vicinity of an SNCF critical juncture that, on the face of it, has no business being there. On the ground, the telepilot indicated this disturbing presence to the rail safety authorities, who immediately took over and sent a team to check it out. Five minutes later, the verdict was in: “all’s well”. “That’s the end of the exercise for us,” says railway safety officer Sébastien Conseil, team leader for the evening. Although this was just a practical exercise, the SNCF assures us that it carries out “doubt verification almost every time a drone is deployed”.

It’s always the same in wars. Those who start and organize wars benefit the most. When there is a war, the bourgeoisie increases the profits, but the proletarians count the graves. It is the working class that suffers most in wars: at the war front, on the home front and in civilian life.
The logic of war is reproduced when proletarians dressed in army uniforms fight inter-bourgeois conflicts and murder their class brothers and sisters on the other side of the war line. But the same people also have the power to stop wars. Every deserter brings us closer to that goal. Desertion is not just an individual form of self-defense. It is a class struggle. The struggle of the working class, against the bourgeoisie and the wars it produces. That’s why the logical step is to expropriate capitalist resources and share them with deserters.

μια συζήτηση με τον Alfredo Salerni που ανακαλύψαμε σχετικά αργ́ά καθώς είχε ολοκληρωθεί η ανάλυση μας για τις πολιτικές καταβολές του Alfredo M. Bonanno, ωστόσο περιλάβαμε κομμάτια από την συζήτηση στο Α επίμετρο με το εξής σχόλιο:
“Αν και ο ίδιος δεν δήλωσε ποτέ ότι ήταν μηδενιστής, ωστόσο δεν μπορούμε να μην επισημάνουμε τη μηδενιστική προσέγγιση της διαρκούς σύγκρουσης που οδηγεί στον επαναπροσδιορισμό της μεθόδου της οργάνωσης -μέσω της αυτο-συνείδησης του ατόμου- στην πλήρη ανάπτυξή της, από την πρακτική εξάσκηση στην γενικευμένη αυτοδιαχείριση που περιέγραψε προηγουμένως. Η άποψη μας είναι ότι η ολοκληρωτική κοινωνία αποτελείται από ανελεύθερα άτομα ενώ τα ολοκληρωμένα άτομα -οι μηδαμινότητες- αποτελούν μια ελεύθερη κοινωνία που πραγματώνει τον κομμουνισμό της χαριστικότητας.”
Συνάντηση με τον Alfredo Salerni:Συζητώντας για τον Στίρνερ και τον Κροπότκιν.
Alfredo Salerni: Ανακαλύψαμε ότι τις τελευταίες ημέρες οργανώνονται τουλάχιστον τέσσερις πρωτοβουλίες για τον Στίρνερ -αυτό έχει σημάνει συναγερμό, το ερμηνεύσατε με κάποια δυσπιστία. Ας αναρωτηθούμε όμως γιατί μιλάμε τώρα για τον Στίρνερ. Σαφώς αν αυτή η συζήτηση γινόταν στην τηλεόραση θα λέγαμε ότι οφείλεται στην κατάρρευση του πραγματικού κομμουνισμού. Ίσως ο Στίρνερ να είναι επίσης ένα άλλοθι που οι αναρχικοί έχουν φέρει μαζί τους: ένα άλλοθι ενάντια σε ορισμένες παραδοχές προς ουτοπίες που είναι υπερβολικά αρθρωτές και βασίζονται στον κομμουνισμό… μπορεί επίσης να είναι και αυτό… Continue reading GR: [Μετάφραση] Alfredo M.

Using Arms… They Don’t Resonate, They Explode – A Few Words About the Continuity of Insurrectional Action Against Those Who Oppress Our Lives: Between Universities and Laboratories
Self-determination and autonomy over our bodies in this world is a chimera; we know this. Within a system of domination that is spreading to more and more corners and dimensions, it seems not only improbable but actually impossible. Facial recognition machines controlling more and more accesses to buildings, an Artificial “Intelligence” that makes reality more indistinguishable from fiction every minute, genetically engineered foods and a seemingly infinite etcetera are part of the landscape our bodies inhabit.
Complete autonomy over our bodies doesn’t exist, but there have been numerous and repeated battles of some aspects that we could frame as self-determination: reproduction is one of these.

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.

All across the country a combative movement has directly stood up against ICE, DHS and the broader
machinery of deportation and border enforcement. We are not just LA, but we are MPLS, NYC, Phoenix, Atlanta, and many more cities.
As ICE continues to invade, as police continue to protect them and the supposed opposition can only manage nice words we see clearly that “sanctuary” is paper thin and if it’s ever to be it’s up to us to make it. And look how we’ve done it, all over the country putting state security forces on the run. In Newark an uprising in a detention center joined with combative action on the outside enabled 9 people to flee captivity, with 4 still on the run.
