Call for International Week of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners 2022 // 23 – 30 August

The fact that capitalism does not focus on our needs but on profit, is demonstrated with all its brutality in times of climate crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic and the collapse of socioeconomic systems all around the world. Those who profit from capitalism enrich themselves through times of disaster. But with ongoing crises we are also experiencing a new era of uprisings from below.

Resistance to the war in Ukraine, Sudanese protests against military rule or the social revolt in Chile are some examples that not only show us the possibilities of organizing and collective struggle. They also highlight how important it is for social movements to learn from each other and support each other in these times. Not only outside the walls but also behind them.

Solidarity Means Attack

ANOTHER ANTI-ABORTION CLINIC ATTACKED — EASTHAMPTON, MA

In the early morning of August 18th, the Bethlehem House, an anti-abortion center in so-called Easthampton, MA, was paid a visit by community members who condemn its fascistic Christian, patriarchal violence toward pregnant people. The Bethlehem House hides behind a facade of “non-judgemental” and free resources for pregnant people, while working diligently to spread the anti-abortion agenda. They lie to and mislead pregnant people in order to prevent them from accessing abortions. Fuck CPCs and their coercive tactics that threaten medical and bodily autonomy.

The building, decked out with talking security cameras and motion activated lights, inspired fear. But after the first rush of nerves, we realized that it is not us that should be afraid, but them. The forced pregnancy center was decorated with brilliant red paint splatters. Words spray painted onto the sidewalk and benches nearby read, “If abortions aren’t safe, neither are you!” and “Jane’s Revenge.”

” Aux quatre coins du globe, au beau milieu d’une accélération désormais indéniable de l’emballement climatique auquel la civilisation industrielle semble bien déterminée à répondre par une intensification de sa guerre au vivant, des tas d’héritages toxiques légués par notre monde s’accumulent jour après jour. Leur terrible charge ontologique a rendu bien futile toute tentative de les dissoudre dans les océans, de les enterrer dans les entrailles de la terre, de les transformer en fumées dissipées dans les airs ou de les recycler afin de nourrir la bête insatiable de la production industrielle. Les déchets constituent en effet le cœur même du processus industriel, qui en contractant la
notion de passé, de présent et de futur en un insupportable présent
éternellement empoisonné, sont devenus des facteurs intrinsèques de toute expérience humaine actuelle et à venir.”

Brussels, Hanging a banner – Solidarity to Th. Xatziagkelou and G. Voulgaris.

On Sunday 7 August we organised an anti-speciesism event at the La Clé squat in Brussels.

The event included anti-speciesism games, vegan food, information sessions and various musical performances.
We believe that these days are important for people who are not familiar with this struggle, to be among comrades and militants and to build comradely relationships and friendships.

As a minimal act of solidarity with comrade Thanos Hatzianggelou and comrade Georgia Voulgari, we put up banners during the event.
Thanos, who is being held in Korydallos prison, was in our thoughts that day and will always be!

Italy: Let’s spoil their party!

Let’s spoil their party!

The elections are the apex of the theatre of democracy.

The grand gala evening of the whole infamous orchestra of democratic power.
The apparatus of dominion, with all the calm it has deemed appropriate, has finally come round once again to the ‘ritual of the ballot box’, to renew the illusion of the ‘decision-making power of the people’ a little in the few who still believe in it… despite the fact that the Italian state and its various appendices have abundantly demonstrated that one can do without even the (farcical) democratic form to impose dominion without being accused of ‘dictatorship’.
In the territory dominated by the Italian state, the government of technology has found an avant-garde pole once again… and indeed Western power always looks to our latitudes with a desire to emulate them.

The need to save a little slice of power, after ‘the man of providence’ Draghi did ‘what had to be done’, has led the various politicians to decide for elections: everyone must be able to gorge themselves on the cake of power, in rotation, all on the blood of the oppressed, on the depredation of the Earth and those who traverse it.

Chile: Text Communique in Solidarity with Giannis Michailidis and Mapuche Hunger Strike

From the territory occupied by the Chilean State, to the Greek region.
From pikun mapu, to wallmapuche.

From the prisons of the Chilean State we send greetings with screams of support and solidarity, with all our insurrectionary complicity, with a fraternal hug from all of us who live locked-up as a result of our actions and conscientious convictions in our long path of social war against the State, Prison and Capital, to Giannis Michailidis, young anarchist from the Greek region that has carried out 60 days of hunger strike for his immediate release from prison, however, for Greek «justice» an anarchist bank robber and fugitive, after almost 9 years and 7 months in prison, after completing 3/5 parts of his sentence, he should remain in prison in spite of meeting all the requisites to be out on the street according to the legality that Dominion uses to quickly condemn the rebels that fight it.

Just like in Chile with comrade Marcelo Villarroel’s current situation of living under state kidnapping, the Greek State uses prison as vengeance and to send a message to those who dare attack it in order to destroy it. Using the nefarious «National Interest» they sustain a constant counterinsurgency to maintain the authoritarian social order that they defend.

From the territory occupied by the Chilean State, to the Greek region directly to the heart of comrade Giannis Michailidis, we send a subversive and anarchic hug alongside all the internationalist fraternity in permanent revolt, with all the strength of the memory in resistance and attack to the rotten world of capitalist normality.

Porto Alegre, Comrade Giannis: our simple gesture: A visit to an Ortodox Greek Church

Our gentle hand for those who struggle, our hostile hand for those who seek to oppress us.

This is not a spectacular action that’s at the level of the struggle of our anarchist comrade Giannis Michailidis, this is barely a small wink towards him, a show of our anarchist complicity. In a world that is ever more satisfied within their own digital information bubbles, we smile when we imagine the faithful ortodox churchgoers arriving at their recently painted church to see the stains of our paint bombs and Giannis Michailidis’ name, that made its way to this corner of the world by way of this simple gesture.

Besançon (Doubs),France: The medical and judicial powers are relentless against Anarchist comrade Boris

Besançon (Doubs): The medical and judicial powers are relentless against Boris

In April 2020, our comrade  and friend Boris set fire to the antennas of four cell phone operators, as well as those of the cops and the gendarmes on the Mont Poupet (Jura). Identified by DNA present on a bottle cap, he was incarcerated in September 2020 in the prison of Nancy, then sentenced in April 2021 to four years in prison, two of which are unsuspended. In a public letter written from prison*, he defended his act by his desire to oppose the increasing digitalization of our lives through direct action, with all the control, environmental and social ravages it implies. In August 2021, he was seriously injured in a cell fire, and has since been in the hands of the medical authorities. On the judicial side, his imprisonment was lifted at the time of the appeal trial of the following September (postponed sine die), while an enquiry, still in progress, was entrusted to a judge in Nancy in order to determine the causes of the fire and to investigate the eagerness of the screws to let our companion suffocate in his cell.

Alternating between artificial coma and semi-consciousness for a few months, Boris could not make his own decisions. The doctors were not without mistakes in their diagnoses, but always with unwavering confidence. At the beginning of March 2022, Boris was transferred from the “Grands Brûlés” wing of the Metz hospital to the intensive care unit of the Besançon CHRU, which in April decided to get rid of him by sending him to another unit that was not well suited to his situation, without his opinion having any importance. This decision, which had serious consequences and meant the abandonment of active care, was essentially motivated by the fact that no favourable evolution of his state of health was observed, following miserable statistical criteria. Clearly, these criteria take absolutely no account of the particular individual to whom they are applied in an absolute and chilling manner, even if he expresses his fierce will to continue to live and fight to get better. Taking advantage of his current quadriplegia, and despite the fact that he is able to speak, lucid and combative, the doctors decided not to resuscitate him if a new serious infection occurred. It was only by protesting and writing letters that they had to take into account his will to survive and resume a minimum of active care.
