Considerations On Freedom.
Writing of Anarchist Comrade Francisco Solar

Freedom is, without a doubt, a fundamental principle within the various anarchist discourses and tendencies. It constitutes an touchstone from which proposals, projects and practices are elaborated, on the basis that the existence of a centralized power determines the different oppressions that affect communities and individuals. It is the State or any other expression of power which ultimately creates and strengthens this system of exploitation along with all of its consequences. Its tentacles, scopes and manifestations point in multiple – increasingly imperceptible – directions, covering practically all of the aspects of people’s lives.

Understanding freedom as a permanent process of taking back our lives step by step, in which we strive to eliminate any vestige of authority that tries to coerce us as well as those found in our own behaviours, doesn’t constitute an end point to which we should aspire to arrive. Therefore, it’s very likely that freedom as an established entity, as a culminating point of a path, doesn’t exist except maybe as a daydream. I believe our gaze shouldn’t be focused on this, but rather on the process of struggle contained in this concept. As Don Quijote put it, “the road is more important than the inn.” It’s the construction of relations that aim to be free and the destruction of any expression of authority that should be the center of our preoccupations and undertakings, since it’s through deepening daily practice that we seize moments of freedom.

(Chile) Barricades in Solidarity with Prisoners and in Memory of Comrades Lupi, Tortuga and Belén

January 19, 2025 / informativoanarquista

Masked people raised barricades in the Maipú commune, with the impetus of demonstrating the living memory of those who aren’t with us physically in the streets, and at the same time, fostering solidarity with those who find themselves in prison.

Anticarceral memory for the 81!
Lupi, Tortuga and Belén are with us!
Freedom for anarchist and subversive prisoners!

Reportback on the Night Demo at mcgill on February 5th (Canada)

Yesterday in Tiohtia:ke, forty anarchists (and our friends 🙂 ) attacked the buildings of mcgill university. Armed with rudimentary tools, we succeeded in destroying all windows that stood in our way. With the help of hammers, rocks, and glass bottles, we vandalized this symbol of the colonial capitalist system. Within 15 minutes, we smashed over 30 windows on multiple pavillions of the institution, as well as the electronic locks of the administration building. An exam in progress during the protest was cancelled for 350 students. According to a mcgill spokesperson, the damages are estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Two comrades who were momentarily detained by the failed pigs of a private security agency, subcontracted by mcgill, were gloriously de-arrested. The police response was slow and ineffective, the protest led to no arrests or injuries. We dispersed completely before the arrival of the spvm.

Graffitis were left behind denouncing the acquisition of the royal vic hospital (site of unmarked graves) by mcgill for $700 million, and its complicity in the genocide in Palestine. We also denounce the desecration of the tree of peace, planted on the lower field by decolonial activists this summer, as well as the historical complicity of mcgill in psychiatric experimentation on Indigenous children, and the transphobia and racism of mcgill’s administration. For us, mcgill is nothing but a symbol of a colonial and capitalist system, of which we call for the complete destruction.

Düsseldorf (Germany): the “Angry Birds Commando” and collapse…

[Note of Sans Nom: In Germany’s seventh-largest city, Düsseldorf, in the North Rhine-Westphalia region, the “Angry Birds Commando” is a regular topic of conversation.

In August 2024, for example, they claimed responsibility for setting fire to railway signal cables in Mettmann, adding to their previous sabotages against rail traffic: one in Düsseldorf in January 2024, and five others in the same city claimed in May 2023. And since the angry birds can also be generous, last September they published a little manual entitled “Kabel anzünden für Beginner” [“Setting fire to cables for beginners”], which contains a number of homemade delay techniques.

But let’s move on to more recent news: on Thursday night, shortly before 6 a.m. on Friday January 24, a fire broke out in a cable shaft near Eller station, a district in the south-east of Düsseldorf, interrupting rail traffic on the city’s most important freight line, as well as passenger line S1 between Düsseldorf and Solingen. This time, while the Angry Birds Commando’s communiqué no. 3 was written in rhyme, the one published the following day on de.indymedia and entitled “Switch off Deutsche Bahn – Communiqué no. 4” is in the form of an open letter. 

Below is a translation, which develops its own vision of collapse, as a contribution to the ongoing debates within the revolutionary movement.]

On Friday morning (January 24), we used tried-and-tested methods to take Düsseldorf’s most important freight line out of service for at least 12 hours. For at least 24 hours, its use was only possible with severe restrictions. In addition to the immediate economic damage, we would like to draw your attention to the following appeal. We would also like to apologize to the travelers affected, and hope that at least a few commuters were able to enjoy a day off as a result.

Bâtie-Rolland (Drôme): fire at extractivist company (France)

A violent fire ravages two company hangars

Le Dauphiné, November 28, 2024 (excerpt)

The alarm was sounded shortly before 2 a.m. on the night of Wednesday November 27 to Thursday November 28. A violent fire was ravaging buildings along the Route de Montélimar (RD 540), in La Bâtie-Rolland, east of Montélimar. On arrival on the scene, the fire department found two hangars of the Soterex company, part of the Poisson corporation, which specializes in public works in quarries, completely engulfed in flames.

A large-scale fire-fighting operation was launched. At the height of the response, almost 80 firefighters were engaged to fight the flames. For safety reasons, the nearby departmental road was closed to traffic. Fortunately, there were no injuries, but the damage was considerable. One of the two hangars housing equipment and two vans collapsed. Shortly after 2 p.m. on Thursday afternoon, twelve hours after the start of the fire, the blaze was not considered to have been extinguished.

Ioannina, Greece: Taking responsibility against the tourism industry & real estate

Last week the windows of the real estate company Casa – Real estate & airbnb services, which was trying to open a branch in Ioannina in the pedestrian street of Kaplani 3, one block from the town hall, were broken through.

The shop was not yet furnished except for a sticker on the glass with the business name and logo: a waiter bowing with a towel tucked into his arm serving a house on his tray. In the days after the “renovation” of the facade, the owners removed the sticker and put a rent notice on the little glass left around the sticker. The business is not advertised on the internet, so this is probably a new attempt to manage our exploitation and misery.

Good riddance!

Dimitra Z. And Marianna M. : With Kyriakos until the end (Greece)

With Kyriakos until the end

Call for support for two days of action 7 & 8/02

Commemorative Demonstration, 7/02, 20:00 (placing of a plaque on Mesologgiou st)

Panhellenic March in Memory & Struggle, 8/02, 13:00 (meeting at Propylaia)

“The true defeat is not that you have lost.

The true defeat is having made yours the idea of defeat.

That you cannot win and change things”

The comrade Kyriakos was one of us. He was one of those who believe there is a deep dividing line between the bourgeois justice of the powerful and true justice. The justice of those whose children were killed at Tempi by the state – murderer. The justice of those who participated in militant strikes. Of those who expropriate the accumulated wealth from the bank safes. Of those who turned the knife on their rapists and abusers. The justice of the tiger that hunts its hunter. The justice of the fast-flowing current that breaks through the dam. Of those armed indigenous peoples who took vengeance on their conquerors. Those who bombed their settlers. The justice of those who burnt down the modern concentration camps. Those who escaped from prison for a breath of freedom. Those who doubted the state monopoly on violence. Those who struggled with every means. The justice of those who refused selfishness. Those who thought of us and not me. Those who, during the course of history, took positions of battle next to the oppressed. As the comrade Kyriakos did.

A comrade that chose the path of revolutionary responsibility. That was consistent with his self. Participating indiscriminately in all fields of struggle. A child of 2008 and the December insurrection, the burning barricades, the enraged consciousnesses, the vows for vengenace in teenage conversations. And then a protester of ’11 and ’12, the era of austerity, of the IMF and the Troika, the revolts and clashes, the day-long demonstrations and the hand-to-hand battles. From there, an anarchist in the Berlin of gentrification and social isolation, of the militant defence of squats and the solidarity with persecuted fighters, with busy hands, full nights and an open heart. Returning to Athens now, a decided militant of the anarchist movement. Participating indiscriminately in all fields of struggle. An anarchist of the squats, of antifascist and feminist patrols, of antiracist struggles and strike mobilisations, of struggles against prison and touristification. He stood firmly within the convictions of the anarchist struggle, with immense camaraderie, with sensitivity, solidarity and perceptiveness.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the attack on the Hellenic Train offices

February 28th marks two years since the deadly crime of Tempi. Two years later and the causes of the collision between a Hellenic Train passenger train and a commercial train remain unclear. Unclear precisely because the main perpetrators of this crime are the capitalist policies of the state and its capital.

57 people died and how many others were seriously injured, with the government trying to cover up the causes of the tragedy, defending once again the private capital of the big bourgeoisie. The latest developments that have come to light leave no room for misinterpretation and misunderstanding. Whether it is fuel smuggling or the transport of any flammable materials, Hellenic Train, New Democracy and capital are covering up their crime.

Athens, Greece: Arson Attacks in Memory of Anarchist Kyriakos Xymitiris

Forward, everyone!
Both with arms and with heart,
word and pen,
knife and gun,
irony and blasphemy,
theft, poisoning and arson,
let us wage… war on society!

~Josheph Dejacque (1821-1864), libertarian anarcho-communist

In a world of constant impoverishment, class inequalities, oppression and exploitation, social fascism advances through the dictates of the state apparatus, capital and its mouthpieces, leaving room for more and more impoverishment and repression. The reformist compromises of the once more radical sections of society, together with stupidification, selfish individualism and worship of oppressors, make it no longer able to conceive of conflict with all of the above.

Our anarchist comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris and anarchist comrade Marianna M. are an example of selflessness, revolutionary ethos and political commitment in all aspects of the struggle. From anarchist assemblies, to solidarity with prisoners, to struggles in defense of immigrants, labor gains, to the struggle against gentrification and repression, our comrades gave “body and soul” keeping the flame of the revolutionary cause always alight. The events of October 31st froze our hearts but at the same time convinced us to continue the struggle of Kyriakos and Marianna and so many other comrades over the years who gave their lives or were imprisoned in the battle for individual and social liberation, revolution and anarchy.

Claim Arson Attack at the real estate company Ellika, by Fire Estate (Athens,Greece)

At the early morning of Monday, December 23, we decided to leave a little gift in anticipation of the holidays at the real estate company Ellika, at its store on Irakleidwn Street in Thisseio. The otherwise police-controlled neighborhood of Thisseio was the perfect spot for us to contribute, fairly easily, our own sparkle enriching this way the already so glittering decoration of the Athenian center.

This real estate company has 2 branches, one in the center and one in Glyfada, it has been active since 2004 and, in addition to the classic activities of a real estate agency, it deals with auctions and Golden Visa, providing lawyers and accountants to complete the procedures that interested parties need to join the program.

The Golden Visa offers a 5-year residence permit to non-European
citizens with the purchase of a property (usually some wrecked property in the center) with a minimum value of 250,000€ and the possibility of permanent residence. Interested parties usually want the Golden Visa for their access to the Schengen countries, Greece offers the most favorable conditions compared to other countries.

Greece: Taking responsibility- Intervention against the murder of migrants in Rhodes and Thessaloniki

January 2025

Each day we witness the war against immigrants in every way. From their over-exploitation as cheap labour and their countless imprisonments in detention centres, to their torture in the A.T. police stations, the mass murders in detention centres, the pushbacks and drownings in the Aegean sea, these murderous anti-immigrant policies are an integral part of the Greek state’s agenda for its capitalist reproduction.

The social and class war of the Greek state has two aspects. On the one hand, it proceeds to create large surplus populations which, as the most impoverished part of the working class, are at times exploited by domestic capital. Other times, it uses the state itself, which with its rhetoric creates the necessary “internal enemy” that threatens the local proletariat.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the attack on the television station ACTION 24

TRUE SNITCH JOURNALISTS YOU ARE INDEPENDENT

On 25/01/2025 at noon we chose to intervene with sledgehammers and paints at the television station ACTION 24 on Skiathou Street. Our movement was a minimal act of opposition to a medium that systematically reproduces the dominant discourse, consciously supports any decisions of the state, constantly kills characters at the discretion of the authorities, systematically incriminates and denounces victims of trafficking.

The reason for this event was the appeal of the cop-rapist Bougioukos in the case of the 19-year-old girl from Ilioupoli. The channel in question hosted Bougioukos last year after his conviction, in an interview of the rapist-pimp laundering, attempting firstly to recreate his character and reverse reality by incriminating the 19-year-old survivor and abusing her once again. The status of the cop who arrested the bastard seems to have been enough for the channel to placate him as the wrongdoer in the case.

GATHERING IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE ANARCHISTS ACCUSED IN SCRIPTA SCELERA OPERATION – MASSA, FEBRUARY 28, 2025

poster pdf

August 8th, 2023. Following a request for ten arrests in prison, Scripta Scelera operation leads to nine precautionary measures against as many anarchists accused for the publication and distribution of the internationalist anarchist fortnightly ‘Bezmotivny’.

A proceeding with which the State intended to ‘normalise’ the precautionary measures for charges concerning revolutionary publications. Scripta Scelera represents another ‘chapter’ in the war policies of the Italian state, in continuity among other things with recent repressive manoeuvres aimed at removing political practicability from ever wider social sectors.
