This year anarchists celebrated May Day in Makassar, Indonesia by taking to the streets, 
wheat pasting posters, distributing fliers and passing out information.

Le Pen eliminated, that's good. The problem is that Macron's anti-social policy will 
continue to serve as a step to the NF. Fortunately, his government right-left patchwork 
promises to be fragile, therefore vulnerable to social struggles. To us all to make him 
barrage and to build a revolutionary alternative. ---- Emmanuel Macron will be president ! 
The candidate of the employers won over the fascist revamped Marine Le Pen. ---- For 
left-wing voters, it is a meager relief (Le Pen is eliminated), immediately supplanted by 
a frank frustration (Macron is elected). ---- For those who do not believe that 
institutional policy can change anything, such as the Alternative Libertarian, this 
election only reconfigures the modalities of the struggle.

Reasons to be angry

Let us recall some features of the program:

Tax cuts for the wealthy: a change in the tax on wealth to exempt "  thousands of 
households now subject to the ISF  ".
Breakdown of public services: with the abolition of 120,000 jobs in hospitals, schools and 
all public services, and 70,000 to 75,000 in local and regional authorities. Suffice to 
say that the promise of classes to 12 pupils in the primary is false.
Casse du Code du travail: in line with the El Khomri law, with priority to company 
agreements on branch agreements and the Labor Code.
Breakdown of social protection: with the reduction of social contributions, therefore of 
health insurance benefits, unemployment and old age. Improving the protection of 
self-employed workers is an eye-opener.
Penalizing unemployed and unemployed: by reducing their ability to say no to an employer.
Penalizing workers: removing the 35-hour weekly standard for young workers.
Reinforcement of repression: with the hiring of 10,000 additional policemen and gendarmes.
It is against all these announced attacks that we will have to resist.

Reasons to rejoice

Macron will pursue the neoliberal policy and social regression of his predecessors. But 
unlike the bulldozer Sarkozy and the illusionist Holland, he cumulates handicaps:

Its electoral base is volatile, the candidate has only sold a jeunist image, dream and the 
hollow formulas of "  neither right nor left  ." For those who drank his words with stars 
in his eyes, disenchantment was going to be brutal ;
Its social base is very limited: it is seen in the middle classes of the traditional 
bourgeoisie, despised in the popular classes, it will have for it only the Medef, traders 
who hope for tax cuts, and the flashy cohort of start- Uppers, "  creative  " and other 
thirsty business 2.0. It is narrow, in reality ;
It does not benefit from the label of the left which, too often, intimidates the social 
and trade union movements. In militant circles, no one expects anything from the promoter 
of the Macron and El Khomri laws. There will therefore be no state of grace ;
It is not sure to obtain a parliamentary majority in the legislative elections. Even if he 
obtains it, it will be unstable - made up of defectors and unreliable neophytes. This 
precipitates his claim to "  govern by ordinances  " since this requires the assent of 
Parliament.
This power will be fragile, and this is good news for the social movement, the trade union 
movement and, more broadly, for the "  left of the street  ": all those who do not expect 
much from the ballot box and think that One obtains more by the struggle. We will be 
blocking the policy of En marche dans la rue, in businesses and in neighborhoods.

Reasons to Engage

Against Macron, against Le Pen, against the right, but also against the neo-social 
democracy that Melenchon seeks to invent, we affirm that unemployment, misery and the 
ecological crisis will not be resolved without calling capitalism into question, That is 
to say the private ownership of the means of production and exchange which forbids us the 
real democratic choices.

Our enemy is not the "  system  ", a term that does not mean anything any more, since all 
the politicians say they oppose them, from Dupont-Aignan to Macron via Le Pen and Fillon. 
Our enemy has a name, much clearer but that, strangely, politicians avoid carefully: it is 
capitalism. And, it is "  global  " or "  patriot  ".

We oppose it to socialist self-management, the only project capable of changing society 
and life.

We have no idea whether police officers imagination in choosing the operation name Phoenix 
should have a broader scope, but after another year and a half that has passed since the 
publication of the last issue, we can say that the curse has included police and our 
publishing period. We set a number, we burn up into ashes, and rise up again. However, 
even this is not such a bad option, because if we strictly copying the ancient legend, 
came out we once every five hundred years. ---- Issue of September 2015, largely devoted 
to the ongoing police repression and the subsequent reactions. After a year and a half in 
much brighter, but in many ways still do not. The lawsuit is still running, or after it 
emerged that one of the lay judges is a former policeman ÚOOZ and publicly publishing 
racist, who also has a case and punishment ahead clear, was canceled and will run again. 
Given these facts aside other necessary reflection for later and focus attention on weekday.

During our editorial meetings crystallized práve theme of "anarchism of everyday life." 
One friend was kidding, if it so wishes can draw ... Well, probably not, but perhaps write 
yeah. So that thread connects this number. It features a "confession" áckare working in 
korporátu practical and proven knowledge vegan behind the walls of the prison. Also, an 
interview with one of our former editor, who is now a municipal councilor, experience with 
achieving consensus and historical parallels between the "Gypsies" and technonomády.

One of the other interviews approaching meritorious activity of the anarchist club Zádruha 
- Historical Association , which systematically maps the history of the Czech anarchist 
movement during 1880¬-1926th The third conversation numbers are heading more into the 
future, thus possibly directly to paradise and the kingdom of God. Interview with young 
anarchokrestanskou community, you might be surprised in many ways, not just you. We 
believe that will surprise our clients on repressive positions when he learns that the 
flowers and spiritual radicalism without spectacular small fire, but the fire in his heart.

In the world of course happened and happens a lot, we have to admit that in our present 
condition we are not able to meaningfully process, but the prospect of additional issuance 
is appealing. Of course it depends on your support and reactions kolportuje, spread, 
because without your participation and feedback will continue to move. You can write to

This letter is a response to The Oregonian May 5, 2017 editorial board opinion "Portland 
Must be Done with Punk Fascists" applauding police action against Portland's May Day 
parade and attempts to create a classic ‘good protester' versus ‘bad protester' wedge. 
This letter to the editor response "Here's What Anarchists Really Want" was published in 
The Oregonian on May 11, 2017. ---- The Oregonian asks: what do anarchists want? From my 
own perspective, anarchists want a society free of racism, class exploitation, misogyny, 
and ecological ruin. Anarchists want everyone to have access to free health care. 
Anarchists want to live in a way that doesn't necessitate imperialist wars. Anarchists 
want a society that doesn't change the climate. Clearly, this society does none of those 
things, and therefore, anarchists want fundamental social change. We can debate about 
tactics and strategy, but we need to be consistent in our uses of terms.  Fascists believe 
in white supremacy, genocide, and an authoritarian state.  Anarchists are, in fact, the 
opposite of fascists.  All those anarchists who died fighting fascists-in Spain in the 
1930s and elsewhere-could attest to this. They gave their lives for their ideals.

The black bloc anarchists on May Day confronted a violent police attack on working 
families when the police cancelled the parade permit and attacked innocent people using 
tear gas, concussion grenades, and baton charges. It is fortunate that a section of the 
march, those in the black bloc, was prepared for this heavy-handed over-reaction to some 
thrown Pepsi cans. Our focus should be on the police's violence. The Oregonian's attempt 
to deflect attention from the true brutality exhibited on May Day - that of the police - 
is apparent.

Scene - place game of actors in the theater, separated by a curtain from the audience. 
This is the first definition of the word scene, which gives Polish Language Dictionary, 
perhaps the most obvious and first incoming thought people not involved in any way in the 
freedom movement, squaterski, the activity of the anarchist or leftist. ---- However, in 
the case of / in person this word in everyday use means the entire envelope cultural and 
moral environments, which deposited its identity to a lesser or greater degree in music or 
the broader culture scenowej. The genesis of this type of fusion culture is influenced by 
Punk, hardcore punk or later, where the wave was reborn freedom movement on the Vistula, 
and although sometimes becomes longer post-scenowym, cultural influences, or subcultural 
are still significant.

The case, however, concerns making the scene once and use many significant passwords for 
their own vested interests.

Unless the problem is that someone goes to concerts, where he sells T-shirts, badges, and 
other gadgets. With so much happens that sometimes someone comes up with an idea that you 
can do this with the release of kapitalistycznym- someone working for me. It comes in this 
way in the symbolic head of worn-out shoes, takes over this role from all over the 
"benefit of inventory" and although she likes to sing at a concert "kill his boss at work 
God will surely forgive" feels quite well in this role.

Stairs begin at a time when our anti-system chief, wants as head of the screw a little 
screw, it turns out that among fellow-workers (those who stand beside him at the scene of 
the Saturday concert) are those for whom it is not only fun and above the relationship 
with a friend cherish their dignity and say a resounding no. Besides the fact that this is 
the only fellow workers believe, because the boss long ago realized that such 
relationships be used to arm workers went on many issues.

He learned very well come into their roles under the guise of camaraderie and make 
unfavorable solution for workers, but as an employee wants to resolve the matter with the 
key camaraderie need not worry, the boss remember that this work, and he is to perform the 
command.

At some point arises how obvious in this case, class conflict.

It turns out that a former colleague is no longer an activist and an exploiter, very well 
understands the mechanisms pracownik- relationship "employer" we create two camps, the 
first is the one for which this scene is cool clothes, expensive drink, Cossack tattoos, 
veg food. With all its superficiality and no-reflexive consciousness without the effects 
of the adoption of the reasons for its action.

And the second, which may also, to a lesser or greater extent has the same cultural 
back-ground, but is aware that it is only the effect and not the cause of all other 
activities and mechanisms of the movements listed in the first paragraph of the text.
The result of this polarization is the fact that when a conflict arises on the background 
of employee-employer eg. A vegan pub (which happened more than once). The first group sees 
the attempt to organize a coup in their favorite pub, where they have the best vegan 
nodules in the town where go every Friday with colleagues, bring to life your veganism and 
increase involvement in the struggle for the emancipation of animals, and thus also the 
people (sic)

the second group sees the test of instrumental use of certain ideals, for maximum 
reduction of labor costs and maximum tightening the screws already former comrades from 
the scene, because sometimes even the head without seeing the meaning of such dualism 
ceases to come to these concerts.

Worth noting is the fact that when a conflict on the same line is born somewhere else, 
with the management any large company, who personally are distant, then there is no 
problem to stand on the side of workers, because the boss is not someone's friend and 
said, "that it really is a storm loafers, because they do not want to work, a total of all 
these things which you heard that happening with us is not true." When I hear something 
like that, it behooves even sympathize friend that someone wants to tear down what he 
earned so hard.

As long as not all will be able to settle such conflicts through the prism of class, not a 
peer, until the legitimacy of trade union activities in such places will be depreciated by 
people claiming to be part of that scene, as long as we do not do the scene step forward 
in the fight and any emancipation.

[Photos] After the dismissal of President Dilma Rousseff, the new president, Michel Temer, 
launched a policy of social regression. The general strike of 28 April, marked by clashes, 
was the first massive response to this challenge. A commentary by the Brazilian Anarchist 
Coordination. ---- April 28, 2017 was of great importance for the class struggle in this 
country. Resistance to the policies of fiscal adjustment and suppression of rights 
(pensions, Labor Code ...) was felt in all the States and in thousands of Brazilian 
cities. Work stoppages, picket lines, blockages of roads and highways with burning tires, 
unit marches and clashes with the forces of repression set the tone. ---- Participants: 
students, teachers, road, subway, metallurgy, health, cleaning, municipal, civil 
construction, trade, Banks, postal workers, but also indigenous people, homeless workers, 
people living in working-class neighborhoods and a range of other sectors that form the 
basis of society.

The general strike has seen a significant participation of the workers' sectors in the 
industrial region of the State of São Paulo, in Curitiba, Manaus and Belo Horizonte. In 
its own way, every sector of the proletariat has helped to sow the seeds of struggle and 
direct action.

The Military Brigade in Action

This day was not without confrontation. The military police of several states acted 
violently, suppressing mobilization initiatives. This was the case in the State of São 
Paulo, with the arrest of militants of the Workers Without a Roof Movement (MTST) ; In the 
State of Rio de Janeiro, where repression was brutally waged on demonstrators opposite the 
Legislative Assembly and elsewhere in the city center ; In the State of Rio Grande do Sul, 
where the Military Brigade dispersed the bus depots and roads with tear gas, and where the 
municipal guard of Porto Alegre assaulted the officers of the municipality who had locked 
the building, Entry of the prefecture.

The Brazilian president, Michel Temer, spoke briefly at the end of the day. He criticized 
the blocking of roads and said that the "  modernization  " of the country would continue, 
disregarding yesterday's struggle. His Minister of Justice, Osmar Serraglio, went further 
by claiming that the strike was a failure, and ignoring, like the mainstream media, the 
scale of mobilization at the national level. These same media that continue to hammer the 
need for reforms and lie openly about their content.

We know the limits of the trade union movement, the harmful role of the bureaucracies in 
the disorganization of our class, but we rely on days like this to set us moving, to 
experience solidarity and direct action, Seeds of a popular power.

Anarchists in Action

In the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, Paraná, Mato Grosso, São Paulo, Rio de 
Janeiro, Minas Gerais, Alagoas, Pernambuco and Ceará, organizations of the Brazilian 
Anarchist Coordination Have played their part in the struggle and the direct initiative of 
those from below, within each social front to which we have been able to participate.

The general strike of April 28, as we know, is not yet a response to the governments and 
employers, given the current balance of power. But it has been an undeniable proof of the 
power and capacity of the popular classes to put an end to the relentlessness of the 
capitalists and their lackeys. It is through struggle and direct action that popular power 
and rebellion are built !

For a  May 1 of memory, struggle and resistance ! Against austerity and repression, 
struggle and organization !

Brazilian anarchist coordination, April 29, 2017

The Brazilian Anarchist Coordination is made up of a dozen organizations in the various 
states of the country.
