New International Counter-Information Project – ‘Dark Nights’

darknights.noblogs.org
“In the Dark Nights there is always the warmth of the fire!”
‘Dark Nights’ because we found each other during these dark times, we do not fear them, instead we as anarchists see the moment between sunset and dawn as the moment to attack, to strike the powerful in their hearts, to make the fear change sides.
We are an anarchic, anti-info project of incendiary critique and direct action. Against the State, capitalism and the techno-industrial system that is rearing its head more powerful than before. Our network holds onto the principles of DIY, that we don’t expect anyone to fight the social war for us. Neither do we form any sense of a traditional hierarchical or even any organisation to adhere to or issue membership for anything, we met and act together, beginning an informal network, that goes beyond a circle of friends or contacts.
Our outlet is a destructive alternative to the spectacle and disinformation that is the mainstream media that are the weapons of the state and capitalist system we oppose. We publish direct action reports from revolutionary/insurrectional/anarchist groups, not in the interest of reproducing endless streams of empty words and theory but to support said groups and to spread the ‘propaganda by the deed’, to avoid the blatant attempts by the system to eliminate them and any memory of
anarchist and revolutionary struggle.
Solidarity for us is not based on ideological dogma, what matters more to us is the direct attack upon what we perceive as the enemy. We DO NOT support the cops, they are not our friends, neither our protectors, they are our enemy as much as anyone who snitches, provides information on comrades, allies or co defendants.

Athens,Greece Event: Procession for the Exarcheia area of Rebellion not Capital.

Event: Procession for the Exarcheia of Rebellion not Capital.
Day: 16/6/2021
Time: 19:30
Place: Plateia Exarcheia
Exarcheia does not only have a history, it has a present. And in this moment the neighborhood is a glimpse into the uprisings and repression, hope and battles captivating the world.
Exarcheia is not a museum to be showcased, a moment of fun had and discarded and certainly not a space for capitalistic efficiencies creeping need to devour.

London, UK: Two Manifestations – In the Context of June 11 International Day of Solidarity with Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners

Images from the wild demonstration on 11th of June  at  HMP Pentonville prison in North London

images of the  wild demo visit at Google London HQ  11th of June 2021


We decided to mark June 11 by calling our little ‘manif sauvage’, with two targets: HMP Pentonville and the forthcoming Google London HQ. The point of this is twofold. Firstly, to start again a trajectory which has ebbed during lockdown – that of constant antagonism at the houses of confinement. In a sense, this seems to us to be an affirmation of the sense of the day of June 11th: to clarify that any repressive installations are a part of the global self-sustaining matrix of social control and exploitation. As such, we have seen no contradiction whatsoever in offering a brief disruption to the grotesque regime of control in an English prison, and agitating, speaking in the language and reality of, the international anarchist tension.
But, unsatisfied with simply repeating a well-trod ritual, we also decided afterwards, to move to the Google ‘Campus’, still under construction only a short while away, overlooking the central metropolitan artery of Kings Cross station. There are material reasons for this: Lendlease the construction company is a main contractor for the UK prison industry, responsible for building the new megaprison in South Wales (a recent spontaneous insurrection in that territory should tell us something as to why authority has granted these contracts at great expense). On top of being responsible for a hideous ‘luxury housing development’ on the site of the former Heygate housing estate, they are now constructing Google’s London HQ: this repulsive worm, which will be as long as the ‘Shard’ skyscraper is tall, when completed. This is a monument to the power of social planners and technology multinationals to run the new crisis-ridden economy and categorise, collect and control all the minutia of our lives.

Berlin,Germany : Rigaer 94, Which side are you on?

The time to search the conflict and intensify it is long overdue.  It’s time to go against the idea of property and the owners and take on the fight on our side, the side of the disposessed, the renters, the homeless. It is also time to resist against the occupation of our neighbourhoods, against the state and a society, that supports and contributes to its agenda and actions of systematically opressing and exploiting people based on racial ascriptions, drives away, displaces and excludes those that don’t fit or don’t want to fit in with the city of the rich. There is no reason to defend the existing and take the side of those profiting of the capitalist system. There are many reasons though to get organized together and rebel against state and capital, against authorities and its defenders and fight for the principles of selforganisation, mutual aid and a life in freedom and dignity. That is the context in which we see the defense of Rigaer94.
Rigaer94
To us, this house is a place where we chose to live and fight collectively. It is a place of organization of different local and international struggles in which we involved ourselves over the years. As a piece of the ongoing resistance in this city. Against the policestate and with it the transformation of parts of the city into so called “danger zones”, in which cops harass, control and hunt people. Against gentrification, rising rents, real estate projects, the destruction of public spaces and forced displacement. Against social isolation, egoism and the narrative of “everyone fending for themselves”.

Capital and pandemic (Spoleto, Italy, May 29, 2021)

A year and a half after entering into a ”state of reanimation”, the world’s economic power has not yet been able to emerge from the violent crisis that erupted with the spread of Covid-19. On the contrary, in perfect confusional state, the more the crisis worsens, the more its courtiers preach of wonderful news in store for the near future. The magnificent and progressive destinies of science promise a totally renewed world, a humanity freed from fatigue and disease.
Behind this miraculous delusion, however, lies another reality: ecological destruction, physical and moral poverty, exploitation; a process inaugurated by the prison massacre of March 2020. The economic transition is accompanied by a change in the features of the state. An authoritarian turn of events that is transforming the new democracies into the kind of society that – from the vaccine passport to the curfew, from social distancing to the virtual network – we are just beginning to glimpse.
WE WILL TALK ABOUT THIS ON SATURDAY, MAY 29th, AT 5 P.M.

Solidarity campaign, appeal court for the anti-fascist demo at 17/9/2015 (Athens,Greece)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEXAjhK-Zzw
video in Greek : ΑΝΤΙΚΡΑΤΙΚΗ ΠΟΡΕΙΑ και ΕΠΙΘΕΣΗ ΣΤΟ Α.Τ ΕΞΑΡΧΕΙΩΝ 17/9/2015

—–

At 17/9/2015, 2 years after the murder of antifascist Pavlos Fissas by the hand of fascist Roupakias, an anti-fascist – anti-state – anti-capitalist demonstration (https://athens.indymedia.org/event/60243/) was called at Kaningos square by the «Anarchist’s assembly against state, capital, fascists».
As it has been historically proved, fascism is the right hand of bosses and states. Fascists are the useful front-men for the expansion of the capitalist interests on military terms, always embraced by the narrative of national consciousness and supremacy. Whenever needed, this narrative has been ideologically and materially employed on the purpose of redefining the social balances and the exploitative conditions.

[MADRID, SPAIN] Ante la militarización de la frontera en Ceuta: CONCENTRACIÓN – viernes 21 mayo 19H, Tso de Molina ¡NI CIES NI FRONTERAS NI NACIONES!

Actforfree received email:
La situación en Ceuta es el resultado de las tensiones entre los estados español y marroquí, mostrando la auténtica cara del capitalismo y los estados como traficantes de nuestras vidas. El sistema no tiene escrúpulo alguno en edificar alambradas y checkpoints, levantar muros y cárceles para personas migrantes como los CIES, campos de refugiados regidos por dura bota militar, y todo ello rodeado de la más alta tecnología, custodiada por cuerpos policiales y, cuando se tercie, militares. Nada como la democracia para gestionar el racismo y la xenofobia. Todo ello para regular el flujo de capital humano, es decir, la población forzada a desplazarse en las rutas migratorias mundiales, fruto de las guerras, la represión y la miseria de las que los estados y
el capitalismo son directamente responsables. Sin olvidar la imperante necesidad de la clase empresaria de obtener una mano de obra barata a la que explotar.
