Swansea saw "For Britain" and various local fash and "Brexit even if it means hanging out
with nazis" types congregated behind the flags that were sprayed with dog piss when they
had them up over the M4 the other day and did their "we arn't racist we are just patriots"
dance. ---- The SUTR folk having come to the same genius decision as Anarchos to make the
event a celebration took the lead and with their comrades various put on music,
performances and a vigil for Sri Lanka. ---- Anarchist milled about enjoyed some music but
generally not being ones for static affairs and seeing that the fash were outnumbered by
their flags and locked down behind fences (The police expecting greater numbers maybe?)
enjoyed a day out and kept an eye on town after events. ---- No drama and I think more
than a few people who thought that it was a "pro brexit" rally came to see that it was a
excuse for a far-right gathering.
Bristol saw Earth Strikes half way towards a General Strike (Sept 27th) call to arms. A
few hundred eco-activists, Anarchist and Socialists gathered together in the bearpit for a
series of short speeches from various groups and then a march around Cabot circus.
Aside from a few prats behind the wheel, it was a damn fine A-A and a really good day show
of solidarity across the organiser community as several groups came and helped make Cabot
Circus erupt to the sounds of drums.
Great conversations were had re; anti-capitalist approaches to environmental action and a
whole bunch of people who didn't know about this or that built up new networks of
communication.
Protests are great for that little Anarchist Knitting Circle, especially when you are not
having to get negative with the other mob over there etc etc
The hero of the day was a wee lad maybe 5 years old in his camo outfit who closed down a
road on his tod like a fucking bad ass.
Lots of respect to the plethora of crews and organisations and individuals who supported
these two mighty fine events, braving the weather and general gloom to show love and be
kick ass.

Saturday, thirteenth of April is a date that is definitely worth remembering. It was then
that the First Equality March in Gniezno took place . A group of nearly 80 activists and
activists from Poznan, associated with the Poznan section of the Anarchist Federation and
Kolektyw Rozbrat, supported this event with their participation. With black and red flags
and accompanied by Samba Halastra, along with some of the march organizers, we entered the
Gniezno market. The market was greeted by quite a large, colorful and diverse group of
participants and participants of the march, there were representatives of various leftist
parties among them, but above all dominated by non-attached people who wanted to express
their support for the idea of equality, tolerance and mutual respect.
At this point, one can not overlook the presence on the same market of a large group of
onlookers and opponents of the march and numerous police forces. It is impossible to talk
about counter-manifestation here, because the arguments in the form of verbal aggression,
insults, lying banners suggesting a relationship between a different sexual orientation
and pedophile crime - this does not qualify as a counter-manifestation of views, or rather
a lynch atmosphere or bears the characteristics of a pogrom atmosphere, considering
formulated threats and striving for physical confrontation.
The president of Gniezno, Tomasz Budasz[member of the Civic Platform], has already
mentioned the aforementioned atmosphere - trying to prohibit the organization of the
march, using "arguments" about the safety of the inhabitants. As if supporters of equality
could pose any threat to this security. The court finally annulled the president's ban,
but the political intention expressed by that prohibition remained. Similarly, some media
such as Radio Poznan devoted a lot of space in their message to planned
counter-demonstrations or repeating false arguments formulated, including by the city
councilor of PiS Pawel Kaminski. In the context of small-town politics, the warming up of
the atmosphere of beheading and threats to other people, different, could have really
dangerous consequences. Behavior of the so-called
In spite of everything, the First Equality March moved smoothly through the streets of
Gniezno. At the head of the march, his participants carried the largest banner with the
inscription: "Gniezno - the first capital of equality." All, quite numerous speeches
during the march were translated into sign language. The LGBTQ family representatives,
representatives of associations acting for the benefit of excluded people and LGBTQ
persons were not among those taking the floor. Not only equality and tolerance were
demanded, but also the need for reliable sexual education, counteracting violence and
respect for women's rights was mentioned. About 400 people took part in the same march.
During the march there were several minor skirmishes, mainly verbal, with his opponents.
In addition to the curses, spitting has also appeared in their arsenal. At the very end of
the march towards the participants from the aggressive crowd, eggs and a few bottles of
paint flew as well. Our information shows that nothing happened to any of the participants
and participants of the march. It is worth mentioning that from police messages it appears
that all detainees on that day were a group of so-called counter-demonstrators, messages
were about 7 to 9 people, all detained people were under the influence of alcohol. We
would like to mention it in order to put another disgraceful statement of President
Gniezno in this context, referring to the losses caused by attacks on the march: "We will
try to enforce the repair of these damages from people, who carried out these acts of
vandalism, regardless of which side they were. " This is how the local authorities once
more try to create an impression of symmetry between those who demand equal treatment,
respect and tolerance, and those who want to deprive them of these rights and even
threaten them with a physical attack.
We hope that the First Equality March will activate local freedom milieus, give them
energy for further actions, in opposition to power, but always for the expansion of
freedom. In such activities, they will always be able to count on the support of Poznan
anarchists and anarchists.

The term "Lone Wolf" is used to obfuscate the level of organisation within the far-right
scene and the fact that it is used as a deliberate tactic. ---- The Christchurch terrorist
has been labelled a "lone wolf" by politicians and media. What people mean by that is that
the person acted alone, without the support of a group, and the label is designed to
ignore the existence of a well-organised right-wing extremist scene, both in NZ and
internationally. It is also designed to let the state agencies off the hook, who were
supposed to have had an eye on him and to support the theory that no one could have
possibly seen the attack coming. ---- People use this term, maybe out of ignorance or
deliberately, ignoring its real meaning. The "lone wolf" is a deliberate tactic used by
the far-right to provoke exactly this reaction.
It is based on a common understanding in the fascist scene between those who provide the
intellectual base and spread it on chat rooms and video platforms on the one side and the
few who go off and actually carry out an attack on the other side. The deal is that the
potential attackers are part of a scene who support each other (verbally and physically)
and egg each other on - but when one of them actually does what they all build up to, then
that person is officially denied. There may be concealed signs of support, but in any
public statements they are renounced. They become the "lone wolf", who no one saw coming,
who acted alone, without anyone else carrying any responsibility.
This is exactly what happened with the Christchurch attacker. He was part of fascist chat
rooms, he had contact to the organised far-right scene. He had supported the Australian
United Patriot Front financially and hailed their leader as the new ‚Emperor‘. He used
slogans and memes from the Australian neo-Nazi group Dingoes. He gave money to the
Austrian and French Identitarian Movements - now all those people deny having had anything
to do with him. The Austrian Identitarian leader Martin Sellner, whose flat was raided by
police after the attack, says that he can't be held responsible for who transfers money
into his account and even suggests that the shooter did this deliberately to discredit the
Identitarians. Part of the deal is that the "lone wolf" never establishes contact with
publicly active organisations on a level that would threaten the principle of plausible
deniability.
The shooter also trained at the Bruce Rifle Club in Milton - among people who were
rambling on about mass shootings, the zombie apocalypse and Muslim immigration, according
to a former soldier who visited the club in 2017. While at the time no one at the club saw
anything wrong with him, the club president Scott Williams now sees himself as the victim,
just like Sellner: "I think we're feeling bit stunned and shocked and a bit betrayed,
perhaps, that we've had this person in our club who has ended up doing these horrible things."
A few people in that environment broke the rules because they didn't realise how the
system works. These are the people who were arrested after the attack for uploading the
shooter's video and are now facing trial. A natural selection process - the stupid ones go
to prison and the others will continue writing and talking about the "Great Replacement"
and encourage each other. The Bruce Rifle Club will re-open, the Dominion Movement will
redesign their web site and Auckland University will continue to deny that there have ever
been any white supremacists.

At least 60 thousand people took part in the 24th day of protest of the movement of
"yellow vests" in France, which was held on April 27. People again took to the streets,
thereby rejecting President Macron's speech on the results of the "national debates". The
defender of the rich, neoliberal president has clearly shown that he does not intend to
abandon his previous course. He understood nothing and learned nothing. And, then, the
pressure "from below" will continue and increase. ---- Demonstrations and marches of the
"yellow vests" were again held throughout the country - in Avignon, Angers, Arles,
Bezanson, Bordeaux, Dijon, Cambrai, Caen, Lille, Lyon, La Rochelle, Marseilles,
Montpellier, Nantes, Nimes, Nice, Paris, Pau, Rennes, Rouen, Saint-Etienne, Strasbourg,
Tarbes, Toulon, Toulouse, Evreux and other locations.
The main center of protests was elected this time Strasbourg - the city in which the
European Parliament meets. Thousands of participants gathered here for a "national and
international demonstration" (not only from France, but also from Germany, etc.). The
march took place peacefully until the police blocked the road to parliament for the
demonstrators. The capitalist guards reacted with tear gas canisters to try to break
through to him. The demonstrators took the fight. Black-clad activists pelted police with
stones, bottles and other objects, set fire to garbage containers and built barricades.
In Paris, part of the "yellow vests" held a march together with the trade unions and the
left parties. Another organized a small protest demonstration at media outlets, protesting
how they were covering the protest movement ( https:

https://www.euronews.com/2019/04/27/french-police-clash-with- yellow-vest ... )
In Montpellier, thousands of demonstrators stopped at the former Royal Cinema, which was
the headquarters for the social struggle against labor law reform. Now the building is
again occupied by the protesters, who intend to turn it into a "House of the People" (the
general assembly of the "yellow vests" was scheduled there the next day). After that, the
demonstrators moved on, making (as a week before) the next stop at the Chamber of
Commerce, where they unfurled the banner "We are here." Later clashes broke out near the
prefecture; the police used gas and stun grenades. In the evening there were clashes in
the city center, where the police tried to repel the "Royal" ...
Battles with the police took place in other cities. For example, in Lyon, where the
authorities banned demonstrations in the city center and the police tried to drive out the
demonstrators using gas ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6zq71taKbY )

On April 6, 2019, a crowd of teachers and teachers (over 1,000 people) filled the yard in
front of Poznan City Hall (Plac Kolegiacki). The protesters demanded information whether
they would get money for the time of the strike action, suspended the day before by the
decision of the head of the Polish Teachers' Union, Slawomir Broniarz. Such a declaration
fell on the part of President Jacek Jaskowiak at the beginning of the strike. Now the city
claims that the funds for teachers' payouts are secured in the budget, but this does not
mean paying for the strikers. Clear declarations in this matter were demanded. The slogans
"Decent work worthy of pay", "We want money", "Solidarity with our weapons" were chanted.
The protest was supported by activists of the Workers' Initiative and the Anarchist
Federation.
Striking teachers demanded a visit with Jacek Jaskowiak, who had previously ignored the
dialogue with the protesters. At the very beginning of the demonstration, the city guard
intervened, wanting to force the speakers to leave the elevation. This met with strong
opposition from the teachers and teachers gathered. So it continued. Speaking teachers and
teachers raised problems in their industry: low salaries, working outside the
establishment (school), social pressure. The main demand, however, was definitely payroll.
There were voices that nuanced this position, referring to the professional dignity and
the need to modernize schools, which would also be in the interest of teachers. The video
coverage of the protest can be viewed here:
Eventually, the Vice-President Mariusz Wisniewski left the protesters, more or less in the
middle of the demonstration. He upheld Jacek Jaskowiak's position on securing funds for
teachers' payouts. However, he repeated several times that payment is impossible for a
strike. He announced discussions on the use of funds with the participation of trade
unions and directors, and the city undertook to write recommendations on this matter.
Teachers and teachers gave an example of precedents, but when it was possible to pay for
the strike ( position and opinion of the PNA in this matter ). They also asked the
vice-president questions about more specific information, eg on the date of payment of
funds for teachers (in the declaration, it was only marked that they should take place by
the end of the year), but they did not receive clear answers.
The protesters announced the continuation of the action, but in the form of an Italian
strike: performing only the necessary duties, scrupulously, slowly, as far as possible
avoiding servicing of school parties or trips. Many of them asked about the work of the
Workers' Initiative in education. Teachers and teachers intend to expand cooperation, meet
and work together further.

"Ilinden," a sample of socialist utopian architecture "Language is a dialect with army and
fleet", - Max Weinreich ---- The recently signed "Prespa Agreement" is an agreement
between the state of Greece and its formerly known FYROM. It is a text that essentially
regulates the bilateral relations of the two countries, with a peak (at least
communicatively and on the surface of the issues) the name of the neighboring country,
namely whether it will include derivatives or the definition of the word Macedonia, as was
the case with the new name being "Democracy of Northern Macedonia". ---- This agreement
certainly leads both to relations between the two countries and to the geostrategic treaty
in the wider Balkan region on a new day. Its key point, one of the most powerful attitudes
and meanings behind both the shake-up of the wider so-called "Macedonian" issue and the
international pressure that has been brought about by the developments with the agreement,
is the ever-increasing competition between powerful power blocks. On the one hand the US
and the EU, the Euro-Atlantic coalition and its military arm, NATO, and on the other
Russia with its own aspirations in the wider region.
In fact, following the Prespa agreement, the accession process for the Republic of
Northern Macedonia (BDM) is beginning to become another member of NATO, which the Greek
state has been playing for three decades, and not least with the recent upgrading of his
role. It is, therefore, more sunny because the deal was welcomed with ragged reactions
from large pieces of Western states and their institutions, as the signing of the Prespa
agreement reflects the US / EU pole victory.
"Lotus flower", post office in Skopje, also a sample of socialist utopian architecture
On the other hand, throughout the negotiations, Russia, wishing to expand its influence in
the region, has exerted its own pressure, which at least within the Greek reality was
expressed by the premium and financing of the bloc which raised the organization of the
reaction to the agreement, that is to say, the conclave of Macedonian associations, the
church, the various nationalist groups and structures that sprang up and down the road.
But before we analyze the causes of this - at a top-level conflict - for the Macedonian
one, we need to analyze what the text of the agreement actually contains, both at symbolic
and material levels.
First, it is an agreement that reflects the radically different power between the two
parties, and the different role they are called upon to do. The "Macedonian", as an
entity, is explicitly defined as referring to a completely different historical context
for each state. The dispute over the origins of both ancient Greek civilizations is
resolved by the total Greek domination, as the agreement expressly states that the
language and characteristics of the "Second Part" (of the Republic of Northern Macedonia
in the agreement) do not have nothing to do with the ancient but also the modern Greek
culture, the culture and the characteristics of the "Greek" piece of Macedonia as a
geographical place. In this direction, the flag of the neighboring state, various symbols
in buildings, services,
The very identity of Macedonian, a piece that claims national narratives on both sides of
the border, refers to different entities that relate to different historical contexts and
cultural heritage. The term Macedonian refers to citizenship (ie political ties with the
relevant state) rather than nationality. A further limitation to the citizenship of DWM
citizens is added to this agreement, adding the "citizen of Northern Macedonia". The
amendment to the FYROM Constitution states that "citizenship does not specify or
predetermine the ethnicity of the citizens of the country" and therefore does not
recognize the "Macedonian people" or "Macedonian nation". DCB pledged to amend its
constitution (Articles 3 and 49) in the direction of "eliminating any form of revisionism
and irresponsibility (by public or private bodies), respecting the sovereignty,
territorial integrity and political independence of the Greece ".
The other provisions of the Agreement concern the part of the regulation of diplomatic
relations at the level of institutions and tools, as well as the commercial, military and
political part. A bilateral such agreement that puts the second member within the same
bloc of power is also required to regulate its operation in the direction of servicing the
interests of this bloc. Both sides must and can cooperate at the level of suppression,
exchange of information and know-how, mutual support at the external threat level, and
will generally have close co-operation in policing, civil protection and defense. At the
agricultural, commercial and economic level, the Greek side is charged with the role of
"power to help develop" which in practice means big profits for Greek capital and Greek
capitalism. Finally, on the part of the economy and development, we must focus in
particular on the fact that the agreement includes the issues of energy investments in the
region: gas pipelines, mining, etc. The territory of the two states and the necessary
cooperation between them is of crucial importance for the energy part, which is largely
concentrated on the intra-capitalist conflict, as all energy investment is at the
forefront of the effort, particularly of Europe, to disengage from the Russian energy
pendence, but also the consistent and continuous search, on the part of capital,
But beyond what the agreement includes, it is of particular importance to interpret it in
the present historical and political context as a content, meaning and direction that
shapes for the next cycle of capitalist reproduction.
Initially, as mentioned above, the agreement is a strategic move in the continuing
intra-capitalist competition to increase influence and gain control and material /
political backstabies and capabilities in the region. Moreover, the constant search for
new sources of exploitation and profit for capital is inextricably linked to state and
transnational agreements, and results in the widening of the downgrading of any acquis
communautaire. On the feet of local and foreign investors and companies, land and water
are given, agreements are signed on burdensome and predatory terms, social life is being
hit even more in the name of developing and joining an economic union (such as the EU)
with the analogy of sovereignty establishes. Further,
The Prespa agreement was dressed with the fragrance of a peaceful settlement of a very
special and "dangerous" issue for the stability of the area. To the extent that the prime
ministers of Tsipras and Zafe have been proposed to be candidates for the peace nobility.
But back from the greetings and beautiful set-ups of unity and friendship over the Prespa
lake, there is (or not) the antagonism between states and their national narratives, and
their different position in the present correlation of forces. The SYRIZA government,
based on its internationalist and peace-loving character, proceeded with the articles of
the agreement in a particularly aggressive tactic in order to achieve the corresponding
results. The deal also formally validates the record of history from a specific point of
view, which confirms the core of Greek nationalism. Can the nationalist part talk about
treacherous agreements and so on, but the fact is that at the level of language, culture,
name, nationality etc, waived any right of designation in relation to the historical past
of the area. The agreement ratified the essence of Greek, antiquity, Meglexander and in
general this rhetoric as "Macedonia is one and is Greek". In modern politics, the
efficiency and uninterrupted continuity of capitalist reproduction is particularly
important, so the assignment of a geographical definition to the state of the BDM. is a
little bad for the local strong and ruling, as the core of Greek national narrative is not
simply left intact,
Moreover, the Greek side is portrayed as the peaceful and steady force against the "bad"
neighbors, who are now forced to withdraw from their irredentist moods, which of course
also existed from their own political fragments. A special point in connection with this
is the institutionalization of the denial of the existence of a Macedonian minority within
the Greek territory, a point that is a red cloth historically about the Greek state and
the attempt to build Greek national consciousness and identity. It is the satisfaction of
the most reactionary nucleus of Greek nationalism, as the Macedonians as a population were
very strongly associated with ELAS and the IOC, and even after the so-called "national
reconciliation" it was the only piece that was not historically recognized, and the
substance continued its "persecution".
Greek capital, being strong in the Balkans, will lead to an even greater profitability
process by upgrading trade, economic and diplomatic relations and new investments in the
region. Public works, transport, exports, energy, tourism will be the next day of greater
plunder of local populations and the natural world, with even greater help from the
neighboring state under the new treaty of cooperation, and with the Greek the economy is
essentially Goliath in front of that of the BD.
The above are not written to defend the neighboring state or the national aspirations of
the patriotic / nationalistic parties of the society there, but to demonstrate the
contradiction of the dominant propaganda within the Greek territory, both by the socialist
party of the SYRIZA government and by from the part of the nationalist block. The Greek
state and the Greek capital are upgraded, asserted and assume a role of regulator in the
wider region, articulate their own strategy, forging their own nationalism and their own
national narrative. The irresponsibility of losing homeland, the anti-turbulence (which is
implicitly but clearly in the official joint communiqué of the US, Israel, Egypt, Greece
to safeguard the energy routes and the movement of hydrocarbon reserves to the West), the
rhetoric about national sovereignty accompanied by joint military exercises with the
totalitarian regimes of Israel and Egypt and ultimately the appropriation of the "national
line" in Macedonian, which refers to the largely negation of the Macedonian entity as a
population, a line that now crosses almost the whole spectrum of the political world,
including the left, forms the framework within which the its history, its perception and
its teaching, the conditions of coexistence between neighboring populations, and the daily
routine itself in social life.
A great winner from all over the past and his political / social events are the
nationalist / far-right / fascist space, intolerance, irredentist, militarism, war,
obscurantism and fanaticism, with prominent religious. From both the top and the bottom,
the formation of a tight mesh in the public discourse and the shift of all the issues to
the far right set the conditions for the creation of new political structures that will
seek to grasp the thread from where it left Golden Dawn, and from where New Democracy can
not go as the dominant entity of this space. In the creation of a nationalist front, which
will assert the terms of hegemony and governance, which will apply the toughest and most
totalitarian capitalist policies, which will establish new situations of exclusion and
death. To do this, it is primed by the media and other pieces of international and local
capital that see their interests go through building such a state-run operating framework
with the corresponding political potential. And the above is evident when, before the
rallies were well finished, the creation of new political bodies with the necessary
characteristics was announced. The attempt is to create a nationalist movement that will
seize power and have the potential to impose on the sidewalk and everyday life, especially
in a country like Greece, where the local movement continues to maintain a dynamic that is
for the sovereigns a thorn on the sides. is primed by the media and other pieces of

movement continues to maintain a dynamic that is for the sovereigns a thorn on the sides.
An important issue that should not be neglected is the enormous historical and political
significance of almost all of the left versus the ideological attack of nationalism and
the transformation of the struggle into airships in the mainstream arena, the adaptation
of the "revolutionary and class struggle" in a conservative bidding on terms real
politics. A piece of it not only did not react but assisted and went down to the rallies,
flushing their nationalist character, expressing an extreme conservative and patriotic
speech, acquitting the fascist Katsifa and the nationalistic occupations. It is the piece
that has nothing to do with the internationalist, proletarian discourse and action, but
fights for national sovereignty, homeland, etc., hitting on the back, opening the door to
fascism, which he perceives only in the face of the Nazis of Golden Dawn, and not as a
deep and structural process that penetrates much more than a swastika. But the KKE
committed the biggest failure, basking the story of the Macedonian rebels and rebels who
fought and died for their Communist and internationalist beliefs, through the lines of
ELAS / IEP. We have to mention the change of cruise and position in relation to
"Macedonian", which in particular for the KKE is a tradition of its own history, a shift
inherent in its decades-long stance on its position before resistance, and for the wider
region, a position that Greek nationalism charges them as aiming to concede Greek
Macedonia to another socialist neighboring state.
For the reason of the above, the quoting of the position of the Rizospastis from the
distant 1933, with the current positions of the KKE speaks for itself. So initially, and
according to the reports of the radical in the region: "In Macedonia" , we read there, "a
savage drama played against an ethnic group that does not mean to bow down slave in Greek,
Yugoslav or Bulgarian imperialism" (10/19/1933) . "They have been through so many
centuries since the Slavic element was established in Macedonia, and no one knows them
today, except that this place was born and died in him. And neither Greek nor Bulgarian
nor Serbian is " (24/11/1932). "The Macedonians insist. They tighten their teeth, speak
Macedonian tongue with stubbornness, they wear their costume the Macedonian with pride and
they believe and hope and, in silence, they fight silently for their own Macedonia, for
free Macedonia " (24/10/1933). Additionally, there were dozens of schools teaching the
Macedonian language, brochures and texts written there, battalions of Macedonian / Middle
East fighters, and many more in this direction when there were still internationalism
meant something else for the KKE. History, however, proves to be relentless, and so today
politics demands the shifting of positions to the extent that they are copulated with the
dominant propaganda and perception of the birth and entity of nations. Characteristics:
"The position of a Macedonian nation does not really go," Koutsoubas said, "Because it
does not fulfill in its unity the criteria that emphasize that the nation, as a
historically formed stable community of people, appeared on the community of territory,
economic life, language and psychosynthesis manifested in the community of civilization"
(Stalin's definition of the nation). He himself hastened to admit that "the sovereign
nation in FYROM" (and which it avoided naming) "was formed after the Second World War on
the basis of these conditions, with the entity created within the framework of the single
Yugoslavia" . Of course, everyone forgets to quote just historical data such asthe fact
that in the modern era, and certainly by the appearance of the Macedonian Question, in the
nineteenth century it was acceptable, even by the Greek historians and politicians, that
Macedonia, as a geographical area of the Ottoman state, roughly included the territories
of today Greek Macedonia, FYROM and the Pirin region of Bulgaria.
In conclusion, what we are dealing with is the formation of a particularly dangerous
environment, with nationalism being strengthened, and the sovereigns gaining more ground.
The battle to be given is multi-layered and relates to its history, its dimension, its
narrative from sovereignty, the blurring of the dominantly constructed idea of the nation,
the existence of a whole state and capital. It is our duty as anarchists,
internationalists to create embankments in the ideological and material attack on the
bottom, the continuity and the intensity of the plunder of the conquered on both sides of
the border, but also globally, to promote solidarity and the common struggle against
nationalism, war, intolerance, capitalism. To make it clear that imaginary unity under
national flags is unity with our opponents is to become the consumable pawns for their
pursuits and struggles. The ghost of fascism and wars, as well as the daily horrors of
poverty, death, repression, the plunder of our lives, the destruction of the natural
world, wage slavery, must become the goal of our struggle. Rebuilding the revolution and
struggle for the classless, libertarian, anti-authoritarian society in the forefront to
become more and more people. A society where everyone can define themselves according to
their wishes in the direction of collective, equal, emancipated by compulsions and
oppressions of life. Because only the struggle for the social revolution,
NO NATION NEITHER GIVES US A NAME WINS US
INTERNATIONAL FIGHT AGAINST NATIONALITY, PHASE, WAR, AGAINST COUNTRY AND CAPITAL

Earth Strike is another campaign putting environmental action to the front throughout 2019
and tomorrow they'll be bringing it down in Bristol's Bearpit. ---- In the works since
November 2018, they called out for an international general strike on the 27th of
September with three days of action before hand. Tomorrow is the "Halfway Earth Day
Protest" and Bristol shall be coming out in force for "DEARPIT TAKEOVER" which is
beingco-ordinated by the local branch of Earth Strike UK and the IWW's Environmental
Unionism Causcus and has a particular focus on spreading it's wings and developing closer
ties with other unions and organiser networks. They are rocking up with free music, food,
workshops and a climate protest ofcourse! Which knowing Bristol should be lit!
Their case for a strike is pretty clear,
"The Anthropocene is forcing life on Earth towards extinction. Our planet and our future
is under attack. Governments have failed to curb the exploitation and pollution of our
climate by a handful of corporations. It's time to take the power back and shut the power
off! We don't want new pipelines and airports and fracking sites. We want sustainable
energy, clean water, decent housing and respect for all people."
The organisers are actively looking for folk to come and help set things up so if you've
got the time and the will get on it, maybe shoot them a message on their Facebook Page.
This being held at the Bearpit is pretty rad too. If you hadn't heard it basically goes
like this; The council pretty much hands responsibility for the Bearpit over to an Arts
and Community network called "The People's Republic of Stokes Croft" who quite happily
made great use of the space for ages. Then one day the word come down that the council had
decided to shift them on and were about to get their dogs to come and move people out and
wreck the community that had been built. Keys were handed over, resistance prepared and a
tidy bunch of renegades has been squatting the place since.
The logical thing here for any decent city council would be to celebrate this hub of
political freedom, arts and community. Instead of threatening it, Bristol council should
be working with the community to keep Bristol the lively, dynamic, colourful city that
it's so well known to be, always they are crook mother fuckers and so people have to act.
So yeah, great location, great networks, great cause and some fucking kick ass events
planned for the afternoon. Sad to hear that the London detachment had to cancel their
event but expect Bristol to rock it!
