Hamburg, Germany: Broken glass and flood of paint at Hamburg job centres

In the night of 14 September, job centres in the districts of Altona and Rahlstedt were attacked with hammers, stones and paint.
“The top 10 per cent of the population own about two-thirds of Germany’s total wealth” (quote: werhatdergibt.org).
The gap between rich and poor is constantly growing. Even during the Corona crisis, the wealth of the rich few multiplied. In contrast, workers, especially in the precarious sector, have lost their jobs. Many struggle with existential fears and depend on support from the state. They are exposed to the arbitrariness of the Job Centre system, which will continue its repressive measures after the end of the lockdown.

Fire Set in Prison Construction Office in Dresden, Germany

Fire set in engineering office involved in jail construction
Dresden, September 17, 2021
For some time now, militant resistance has been stirring against the ongoing construction of prisons in Zwickau. In the meantime, many companies involved in construction, planning or logistics have been affected. Particular attention was paid to the construction company Hentschke Bau, whose boss had also attracted negative attention through donations to the AfD. However, such a large project involves many participants and we do not want to be accused of forgetting anyone.
So in the night from September 16 to 17, we dedicated ourselves with a few liters of gasoline to the engineering office Rathenow in the Albertstadt. We broke two windows and placed incendiary devices in the rooms. We hope that the fire disturbed the smooth running of further prison planning and that the company understands: Whoever earns money from the construction of prisons will have to bear the consequences! On the area we found additionally still another Bonzenschlitten, we set it without further ado on fire.

France: Call for texts on rationality/irrationality

A rather vague call for texts!
-> The relationship between science and rationality/irrationality in anarchist, anti-civilization milieus. <-
Are you tired of anticivs who are against science but shit on you as soon as you mention experiences that go beyond their rationality?
Do you think that several worlds that exist side by side and not everyone necessarily perceives them?
Do you want to attach importance to your dreams and perceptions?

“La catastrophe actuelle n’a que très peu de choses en commun avec celle des temps jadis. Elle n’est plus cette foudre de la nature ou l’œuvre d’un Dieu, mettant l’être humain face à lui-même – c’est un simple produit de l’arrogance scientifique, technologique, politique et économique. Si les catastrophes du passé pouvaient inciter à regarder l’impossible en face, en mettant sens dessus dessous l’ordre établi, les catastrophes modernes se limitent à creuser davantage dans le possible. Au lieu d’ouvrir l’horizon et de mener loin, elles l’enferment et le clouent à ce qu’il y a de plus proche. L’imagination sauvage cède le pas au risque calculé, où l’on ne désire plus vivre une autre vie, mais où on ambitionne de survivre en gérant les dégâts.”

Thessaloniki,Greece: Explosive attack on the offices of the Fifth Tax Office

When the enclaves of financial totalitarianism mortgage the lives of the proletarian grassroots to fill the coffers of the temples of capitalist barbarism, we have a duty to intervene. It is a matter of social conscience and sensitivity, class solidarity and revolutionary obligation that we too should not treat our lives as mere numbers in the bloodthirsty hands of the bosses. That is why we will remind the enemy that in this war, as long as there is injustice there will always be revolutionary retaliation.
The case of 52-year-old Konstantia Eleftheropoulou, which has seen the light of day in recent days, is unfortunately not the only one, however provocative it may be. She herself was diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2017. Since then, she has been fighting for her life through non-stop treatments, reaching the point of stabilizing her condition. This year, however, after a relapse in her health, Konstantia needed to undergo intravenous brachytherapy, a specialized treatment that is not administered in a public hospital but only in a private clinic. Unemployed and uninsured like most of us, she was faced with the impossibility of accessing the treatment as the cost of the operation, including hospitalisation, exceeds €15,000 (perhaps the equivalent of a ministerial dinner). But Konstantia was not alone in facing her inability. Her public appeal for support and help found hundreds of people in solidarity at her side, who gave everything they could to help, so that one of us could survive collectively against the homicidal state mechanism that has made health a commodity, a class privilege and a luxury.

Montevideo, Uruguay: Presentation of the Grupo Anarquista Anticarcelario website

The destruction of prisons is the destruction of the values of this authoritarian world.
We know that the road to a world without prisons, without authority, requires much reflection and action.
Reflecting on how to solve our problems of today and tomorrow from an anarchic perspective, without falling into authoritarian logics and turning them into action in the different environments we inhabit is a challenge.

Lachapelle-sous-Aubenas (Ardèche), France: Sabotage of an electrical station, “the fairies will never be electric”

via:sansnom Translated by Act for freedom now!
———————
Don’t forget to turn off the light on your way out
The modern world has held us hostage non stop, ever since childhood, venting the merits of security and making us forget the copious dose of servitude we must accept in return for progress through a series of increasingly poorly kept promises.
As the horizons that present themselves at the forefront of civilisation’s advances continue to darken – the ravaging of wilderness, the increasing domestication of the living, the artificialisation of beings – the present world continues its frantic race, making it ever more dependent on energy infrastructures and the products they consume and produce: oil, uranium, electricity.
In the space of less than two centuries, the production of electricity and the increasing electrification of spaces has continued to expand and colonise every part of our lives.

To (try to) keep the cops at bay

From Counter-Surveillance Resource Center
There are many guides out there that describe everything from the best ways of building timed incendiary devices, to dealing with DNA, to anti-forensic methods and how to secure digital information against search and seizure or government surveillance.
Some of them are over forty years old, others are newer, some of them still hold up while others need updating. We thought it wouldn’t hurt to have some suggestions, a brief “things to consider” article, that is reasonably up-to-date in regards to the enemy’s methods. Some lessons and experiences combined with technical info but in a format that hopefully doesn’t feel too rigid and authoritarian.

Cayenne: the police station attacked in the night
France Guyane, 14 September 2021 (extract)
Another night of tension in the streets of Cayenne. Since the night of Thursday 9 September to Friday 10 September, the fires set voluntarily by several groups of people who want to confront the forces of order have multiplied. For almost a week now, Cayenne residents have been witnessing an increase in urban violence, often in the middle of the night.
The latest effect of the opposition (…) by these groups, in small numbers, to the representatives of the State occurred last night. After setting fire to containers and bins in the ZAC Hibiscus, the protagonists of these assaults – as yet unclaimed – attacked the Cayenne police station on Avenue du Général de Gaulle.

Isère: vehicles set on fire in the parking lot of the Varces-Allières-et-Risset prison
Le Dauphiné, 9 September 2021 (extract)
Act of intimidation or reprisal? Four vehicles were destroyed or seriously damaged by an arson attack on the grounds of the Grenoble-Varces prison during the night of Wednesday 8 to Thursday 9 September.
It was about half past midnight when the sound of bursting tyres alerted the guard posted on one of the watchtowers overlooking the prison, who then saw the flames rising from the parking lot reserved for prison staff. This is a fenced parking lot, located at the back of the compound, after the visitors’ car park, which is accessed through a gate that opens with a keypad code.

Carsan (Gard) France : it connects… so it can be sabotaged 

Carsan: Acts of vandalism on the fibre optic box
Midi Libre, 9 September 2021
The village of Carsan has recently been connected to the fibre optic network and already acts of vandalism have been committed against the Orange box located at the northern entrance to the village. The incident occurred on the night of Tuesday 7 September and Wednesday 8 September.
The box was opened and the wires were cut. Part of the village is therefore without internet connection. The situation should quickly return to normal, while technicians repair and reconnect the wires.

Roseville Office Attacked In Solidarity With Atlanta Forest (usa)

Responding to the call from comrades in Atlanta for an 21/8/18 day of action in solidarity with the struggle to defend the Atlanta forest; vandals broke into the office complex housing Corporation Service Company’s (CSC) regional office in Roseville, a suburb of Minneapolis. After smashing the office door and throwing cans of paint inside, a message was left sprayed across the front: HANDS OFF THE ATLANTA FOREST.
Demands are being made for CSC to drop their client, Blackhall Studios. Blackhall Studios would like to level the South Atlanta Forest to build the country’s largest soundstage and an airport, creating unprecedented levels of gentrification in the city.
