Message: 1



I am Xadad. Anarchist from the Khabarovsk Territory and street art artist. I was born and raised in a village far from the city. All zero,
more than 10 years, I studied and worked in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, there my political views were formed. The specificity of activism in
Komsomolsk at that time was associated with participation in a kind of broad near-left opposition and permanent opposition to street
criminals - I had a chance to see several defeats by the center "E" of the Limonovites and the SCM, look from the inside at the local
Communist Party of the Russian Federation and white-ribbon protests, check out various subcultural punk , hardcore dvizhuhi, in the region
we tried to organize a cell of the Pirate Party and so on. Almost six years ago I moved to Khabarovsk and now I paint here on the walls,
trying to express my views in a more laconic creative form. So what is happening now in Khabarovsk?

On the protests of 18 July
Today (July 18) Khabarovsk has not lost its face. There were many people, they call from 10 to 80 thousand, the scatter does not allow to
decide. The rally was held without any harsh hassles. About 80 cars arrived from Komsomolsk and the districts, they were greeted along the
way in the villages with flags and other things. People in disgrace drove the Minister of Health from the square, who came out and began to
talk about the coronavirus. People chanted "Stop lying!" The cops took away the driver's license from the dude who drives the Furgalomobile,
he came and complained to the crowd, the crowd went to beat off the car, it seemed that they did not achieve anything, but then he returned
and said that the license was returned to him, he thanked everyone. In general, it was massive, the people did not refuse anti-Putin
slogans, although they used them a little.

The heat was very disturbing, just hellish, we bought several screeds of water and distributed it to those who were walking in the convoy.
Then we saw what others were doing, handing out water and even ice cream.

What happens next depends heavily on the situation and support in other regions. If everything is quiet, then they can still decide to bring
riot police here from the west, and then the situation could turn out for everyone. But it is more likely that they expect to starve out,
Hope that the protest fizzles out. Until then, make no decisions.

Whether the protest fizzles out depends on many factors. People, of course, get tired, this is inevitable, but so far they are coping. As
long as there is no disappointment, morality is high. During the protest, people communicate with each other, exchange their stories and
painful ones, try to help each other and prevent any potentially unfavorable situations. Today there was support for the region, and these
motorists who arrived in Komsomolsk, Vanino, in Ilyich's Testaments, in the village of Mayak, in Vladivostok held large actions - all this
is good support. Everyone is friendly and disgusted with the statements of Solovyov, Kiselev, Ernst, the local mayor Kravchuk - today he was
called to go out to the people on the square, so he immediately began to abandon his words, he does not come out to people, he is afraid.

Now they said that Furgala will be kept until September, this is a decent period, there is no precedent for people to organize such daily
protests for a month and a half. People will get tired and stop doing this, a change in the form of protest would help, but so far there are
no signs of this, while everything continues according to approximately the same scheme. In any case, the region will remain protest at
least in matters of voting. After some time, a deputy will be named, temporarily acting, and it is unlikely that there will be one whom
people will support. These actions not only helped people to cope with the shock and recover, but also added a huge share of solidarity and
pride for the region and for each other.

About protests in the previous week
July 10
The situation surrounding the arrest of Furgal is only a formal matter of gang warfare (the "90s" in Komsomolsk-on-Amur continued throughout
the 2000s, the so-called Putin stability flashed there in 2007-08, quickly giving way to a new period of economic crisis). First of all,
this arrest is an attack on the residents of the Khabarovsk Territory, who dared to successfully implement the tactics of protest voting for
the third consecutive year.

The pressure on the edge began in the first year, with Furgal's unexpected victory, even though he appeared as a rather loyal politician to
the federal government. We all observed how the United Russia Duma then sabotaged the purely economic initiatives of the new governor,
immediately began to limit his powers, the same was done by United Russia officials in the regional government and the mayor's offices of
Khabarovsk and Komsomolsk. Then, from the first days in the media, an openly slandering information campaign began, which continues to this
day. The transfer of the capital of the Far East to Vladivostok (I note that this attempt by the metropolis to divide the inhabitants of
Primorsky - also the protesting one - and the Khabarovsk Territory did not give the expected result), the raider seizure of the Amurstal
plant and this criminal case itself are all of the above links in one chain,

Even those who did not vote for Furgal and the Liberal Democratic Party, did not support him openly and generally treated him skeptically,
criticized him - they felt a certain sense of pride in the renewal of the political life of the region, treated those who made such a choice
with respect. People have no doubt that Furgal is a person for whom they really voted, and did not draw a result for him, moreover, he is
the first governor who took the powers entrusted to him seriously, perceived them precisely as a responsibility to his voters, as the right
to manage, delegated from below , and not as to the lordly patrimony granted from above. Therefore, even they (people critical of the LDPR)
perceive the current situation as a violation of the democratic rights of the inhabitants of the region.

The van will be planted regardless of the degree of his guilt or innocence, and this is not only an insult to the rights of the Khabarovsk
Territory, but also a signal to all regions in connection with the upcoming autumn elections. It is a public flogging to intimidate
opposition candidates across the country and demoralize voters.

What will happen next? Will residents come to an apparently unauthorized protest? Have OMON been transferred from other regions? Will there
be vintilovo and random criminal cases about cups and urns?

the 14 th of July
The news of the governor's arrest spread widely on the same morning. This was, on the one hand, deliberately done by the security forces,
who carried out a very picturesque detention and immediately posted a video. The intention, however, to cause shock and numbness resulted in
the other side - people began to call each other, transmitting the news, discussing, restoring and establishing social ties, attacked by the
authorities' practice of intimidation and humiliation.

In social networks, ideas began to be generated on how to protest. The I / WE model, which worked last year with Golunov, was immediately
reproduced. In the first few hours, the petition in support of Furgal gained 10 thousand votes (after 3 days there were already 50
thousand). The hashtags #yamifurgal and #freedom-van scattered across the network. Not that anyone believes in the effectiveness of
petitions, etc. (This formal mechanism of communication with the authorities has long been discredited by it, when even petitions that
collected several hundred thousand confirmed signatures on www.roi.ru were ignored and ridiculed), it was more likely that the opportunity
to solidify and feel the support of those people with which there was no direct contact.

Of course, the country has a bunch of different problems that require attention, a bunch of more ethically pure reasons for protest. The
theme of Furgal's arrest, on the purely technical level, turned out to be a very convenient mobilizing factor. The fatigue of sitting in
quarantine combined with the moment when everyone was already used to him, when he stopped holding back even at the official level - without
interfering with the vote on amendments. It is not surprising that subsequently an attempt by the authorities to block the area under the
pretext of sanitation turned out to be a failure, this theater was no longer taken seriously. Of course, no one forgot about the humiliating
vote, it was just now and further in protests, in chants at processions, in speeches at rallies, the topic of amendments will regularly
appear, as the peak of discrediting the election mechanism, directly associated with the illegitimacy of the entire system of being in power
of the president and United Russia, built on falsifications. This is fundamentally different from the attitude of people towards Governor
Furgal. Having been elected in the course of a protest vote and further secured by a protest vote for the LDPR in regional and city dumas,
he turned out to be absolutely legitimate. And his arrest turned out to offend every voter or even just a person who respects the democratic
choice of the region (officials put in their place by the authorities through falsified elections and removed by the same authorities, for
example, for corruption, will not have a share of such a relationship with citizens, they will remain indifferent to them ). Having been
elected during a protest vote and further secured by a protest vote for the Liberal Democratic Party in regional and city councils, he
turned out to be absolutely legitimate. And his arrest turned out to offend every voter or even just a person who respects the democratic
choice of the region (officials put in their place by the authorities using falsified elections and removed by the same authorities, for
example, for corruption, will not have a share of such a connection with citizens, they will remain indifferent to them ). Having been
elected during a protest vote and further secured by a protest vote for the Liberal Democratic Party in regional and city councils, he
turned out to be absolutely legitimate. And his arrest turned out to offend every voter or even just a person who respects the democratic
choice of the region (officials put in their place by the authorities through falsified elections and removed by the same authorities, for
example, for corruption, will not have a share of such a relationship with citizens, they will remain indifferent to them )

Loud, aggressive detention, with abduction-like abduction to Moscow, information about the closure of a future trial, anti-human methods of
law enforcement ( the Network case, built on torture, high-profile scandals about torture in the FSIN system, the practice of fabricating
cases - the same Golunov, the case of the "New Greatness", ongoing repressions against journalists and activists, murders of objectionable
politicians, bloggers abroad and LGBT people, etc.) - all this does not add credibility to the prosecution , based on the testimony of a
person who has been held in custody for more than six months, in conditions of informational secrecy, not allowing even close relatives to
see him. All of the above superimposed, makes in the eyes of the inhabitants of the region the accusation of Furgal in his gangster past,
not so significant compared to the image of the rest of the power system, which is perceived as actually criminal. As a result, Furgal's
support is not based on justifying his past and his murders, but on complete disbelief in the authorities' ability to conduct a fair trial.

On the first day in Komsomolsk-on-Amur there was a series of single pickets and a small spontaneous gathering of protesters, on the second
day the gathering of citizens repeated. In Nikolaevsk-on-Amur, an action of motorists took place. It was obvious to everyone that the main
protest would be on Saturday, and that it would not be agreed, since the system for approving rallies (turned from a notification into a
permit, or rather, in a pandemic, into a completely prohibitive one) became unviable (even without a situation with covid- 19, the legal
deadline for filing a notification demanded to postpone the rally by as much as 10 days, that is, beyond the next weekend). This lack of
legal opportunity to assemble a rally and blocking the right of existing political associations to become its organizers, put each
individual citizen in the conditions of creating his own personal protest and searching for relatively safe, legally streamlined forms of
its implementation. Hence the variety of methods of protest in a city that does not have a long history of major opposition protests. People
began to make stickers on cars for themselves in printing houses, print T-shirts, posters, leaflets, bought up the flags of the Khabarovsk
Territory in stores - who understood what. Whistles, fan noisemakers, musical instruments (harmonicas, guitars), radio tape recorders in
cars and, of course, car horns, which turned out to be the most convenient instrument for shouting, began to be used in the same way. A
signaling car, whether it is traveling in a stream of other cars, creeps slowly in a column of protesters, or simply stands at a crossroads,
becomes an essential form of support for the protest. legally streamlined, forms of its implementation. Hence the variety of methods of

On Friday evening in Khabarovsk, an action was taken to distribute a batch of leaflets and stickers, which brought together several hundred
people. And in Komsomolsk a small car action took place.

On Saturday morning, Khabarovsk squares (Komsomolskaya and Lenin), as well as Lenin square in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, were fenced off under the
pretext of disinfection, there were cisterns on the squares, workers watered the paving stones with hoses, a tractor with a bucket was
reeling in circles, creating the appearance of activity. Around the square were hanging out in groups of 2-4 people, people in civilian
clothes, characteristic of law enforcement appearance. Behind the government building, there are several autosacks and buses with riot police.

Residents of the city began to slowly gather and ply near Lenin Square, tearing off the sheets with warnings about the epidemic from the
fence, some went to Komsomolskaya Square, where the fence was more liquid. Cars passing by started honking, expressing indignation at the
blocking of the square. By 12 o'clock there were already several thousand people around the square, gathering on a hill around the
unenclosed monument to Lenin, they unfurled posters and began to chant. The most popular slogan was "Freedom!" People continued to arrive in
large numbers, making a detour along the road crossings, so that it became already crowded around the monument. Several guys ran across the
road and began to loosen the fence of the square, a part of the crowd immediately rushed after them, the fence was quickly unhooked and
pulled apart. People poured into the square, newcomers were already going there directly, after some time, the barrier of the pedestrian
crossing bridge was also removed from the other side of the square. Several hundred people with placards remained at the monument, there
were about 10 thousand on the square and people quickly arrived.

Cars speeding by continued to hum. The police blocked the road by putting a couple of their wheelbarrows at the crossing, this freed the
roadway to which people have now moved from the square. The procession began with this, rounding the square, the column rushed along
Muravyov-Amursky Street to Komsomolskaya Square, where by this time thousands had already gathered. The entire street from square to square
was filled with people - a column of people in one direction, cars signaling in support of the protest in the other. The number of
protesters is called at 40 thousand, but it's difficult to assess - the convoy of protesters dispersed along different streets and
converged, walked along Muravyov and Ussuriysky, along Shevchenko, past the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Turgenev's buildings, climbed
to Glory Square, walked along Lenin Street to Blucher Square and along Pushkin they returned to Lenin Square, where part of the protesters
continued to remain. Part of the column moved and made another similar circle, after again joining the protest on Lenin Square. The entire
city center was engulfed in protest, seething, shouting slogans and car signals.

"Freedom", "Freedom Furgal", "I We Furgal", "Shame on Moscow", "Putin is a thief", "Return Furgal". "Furgala home", "Furgala to the
Khabarovsk Territory", "Putin's resignation", "Down with the Tsar", "This is our choice", "We are in power here", "As long as we are united,
we are invincible", "the best amendment, Putin's resignation "- such slogans charging randomly in the crowd, they were chanted, loudly,
vigorously (without the shyness inherent in protests in past years). When one part of the chanting charter fell silent, the slogan was
picked up by another part and it did not stop. The most popular was the slogan "Freedom", understood of course not only narrowly, as
"Freedom to Furgal", but broadly, as a universal value,

Returning to Lenin Square, people moved to the government building, climbed the steps, pulled the door, but did not break - turned back to
the square, thereby forming something like a tribune convenient for posters, continued to chant. A group of policemen went up there,
standing between the door and the protesters, but no one broke in the door, people on the steps addressed the people in the square, no
provocations from the protest or the police. Conflict zero. Similarly, during the march, the police blocked the roads, freeing people from
cars, as they do during parades, however, the next day showed - and this was not necessary - a demonstration of people perfectly coexists
with a demonstration from cars, letting each other in if necessary at crossroads (and the action continues, and you can drive through).

After some time, representatives of the press service and the governor's office with megaphones left the government building. Frightened by
the fact that the protesters could begin to storm, they tried to persuade people to disperse, citing the spread of the virus and the need to
support the governor exclusively within the law - all this was immediately rejected by people, some phrases from the megaphone were
completely drowned out by response slogans from the square. As a result, the press service offered to take out the tables, where the
audience could sign the petition and disperse. The answer was in the spirit: "Do whatever you want, but we will not leave." The tables were
really taken out, the petition was signed, but not all, very few people were interested, because at that time the megaphone of the press
service went from hand to hand. And if the steps were turned into a tribune then the megaphone made it possible for the audience to speak
not with separate slogans, but whole speeches. All who wanted to speak out, the crowd actively supported the demands - "To return Furgal to
the Khabarovsk Territory and conduct an open investigation, open trial, ensuring the transparency of the state of witnesses," criticized the
federal government, the entire government, the plenipotentiary and the president, dissatisfaction with the social and economic policies of
the center, corruption and falsification, blocking of democratic and federalist institutions.

Individual representatives of the Liberal Democratic Party who were present in the crowd did not show activity, did not take a speech,
realizing that they would be a tasty target for accusing them of organizing the rally. Journalist Romanov expressed his pride in the
Khabarovsk residents, who set an example to other regions and the whole country. By the middle of the rally, Alexei Vorsin spoke from the
local headquarters of Navalny, the slogan "Russia will be free" was picked up by the audience. Someone remembered the situation around the
artist from Komsomolsk Yulia Tsvetkova, who is being sewn with disgustingly absurd accusations of pornography. Most of the time, people who
were not politicized beforehand spoke out in a megaphone, sincerely expressing their accumulated discontent and pain, both for personally
difficult circumstances and for issues relating to all citizens.

The rally lasted until about 16:30 and dispersed peacefully. During this action, there were no hints of riots, nothing was broken or broken,
no one tried to fight with someone or simply inadequate. Many were amazed and admired by the level of consciousness (including in the
contrast of pictures from other countries, and media reports demonizing any protest), it was felt that people treat the city as their own,
want to live peacefully and calmly, in conditions of freedom and prosperity, in conditions when their voice is significant. A spontaneous
action of many thousands covering an entire city can be peaceful and non-violent. What is needed for this? Consciousness of citizens and the
lack of provocation by the police.

An absolutely similar rally took place in Komsomolsk, where city residents also ignored the fake disinfection works, filled the square,
walked along the central streets, held meetings near government buildings and on the embankment, and organized car runs. In addition to
Khabarovsk and Komsomolsk, Amursk and Nikolaevsk, Vanino and SovGavan, Okhotsk, even very small villages Gorin, Khurba, Elban, Korfovskoye
and others held their actions.

The peaceful nature was completely inherent on Sunday, which again proves that a protest that is not even coordinated and widespread can
remain completely non-violent, a protest is not a riot. During the day, the protesters also wound several circles along the Khabarovsk
streets and then in the evening, when it got dark and became cooler, they gave a couple more circles. The rally was broadcast on the
government building by Navalny's headquarters for several hours. There was no such concentration of people as on Saturday, the column was
gaining about 5 thousand, but in general there was no less protest per day, just people were constantly changing. But there were more
protesters in cars, the runs were in different areas, the whole city roared with signals from lunch, the city center until 12 at night.
During the day, the police detained 4 people, but apparently the nature of their detention was not connected with the protest - some
individuals were too emotional to drink alcohol. The police, who entered the government building in the morning with shields, did not shine
with them anymore, the riot police sat all day in hot paddy wagons and did not show themselves. On Saturday morning, in Komsomolsk, the
police came to the guy who was holding a one-man picket, to which the journalists of the local TV immediately arrived - the police claims
disappeared.

On Monday evening in Khabarovsk, despite the fatigue after two long days of protest and the end of the working day, a thousand people
gathered in the square. The protest scheme was the same, a march through the streets, a chant at the government building, several dozen cars
circled with signals and flags around the city (it seems the LDPR flag and the red Soviet flag first appeared). Komsomolsk also continued to
protest. The arrival of Plenipotentiary Trutnev to Khabarovsk was accompanied by rumors, of an unknown degree of reliability, about the
arrival of a plane with the Russian Guard, which did not add respect to the central government. On the same day, the first obviously
mishandled provocateurs began to appear among the protesters, they did not succeed in fomenting a conflict. Some of the provocateurs were
recognized by the protesters, under the pressure of the general demand to leave and the close supervision of camera lenses, they retreated.
Perhaps the assumption of peaceful protest does not fit in anyone's heads, and they are going to change the situation. However, Khabarovsk
residents once again showed restraint and consciousness.

July 15
I have not heard slogans about "burn Moscow" at all, at most "Shame on Moscow" and other quite all-Russian slogans that have been densely
encountered in recent years at opposition rallies.

Of course, there is a request for federalization. Anti-Moscow sentiment, understood mainly as anti-centralist in the spheres of politics and
economics, inherent in all protests in the regions, including the Moscow region. Last year (the experience of Shies and Ingushetia) showed
that the power of the center can retreat if the protest is long and persistent (this time), if such protests take place in several regions
at once (these are two). Highly motivated, fatly coveted security officials who can be sent from other regions may not be enough for several
points of protest. In this regard, the Khabarovsk Territory is inconvenient for the authorities, it will be necessary to carry out the
landing too far, but on the other hand the people here are not rich in experience of a long and serious confrontation (in the case of force
dispersal, its ability to repulse is not obvious). In this situation, protesters of the Khabarovsk Territory, continuing their actions, they
can only hope for the emergence of centers of protest and massive support in other regions - which is not yet available (single pickets and
one-time actions of solidarity, and even several working pogroms are not enough). It is clear that the agenda of the protest is closely
related to the person of the governor, in many ways incomprehensible and alien to other regions, they look at the Khabarovsk Territory as a
protest that raises all-Russian democratic, federalist and anti-repressive demands.

In an effective protest there is always a demand close, quick to implement, concrete - here it is the requirements of an open court,
conducting an investigation and trial in the Khabarovsk Territory, or even withdrawing charges, these are requirements relating to the
governor personally. Such demands become a program, concrete concessions to which the authorities can make here and now (rather partially
than fully), recognizing the victory of the protest without severe damage to their image (or even preserving it, making a mine of legality
and impartiality), but with the subsequent preservation ( when the protest subsides) the opportunity to play back.

The second necessary component of the protest, hoping to win, are broad demands, in a sense they are sanctioned against the government,
which does not make concessions in the matter of the first demands. Such requirements are more abstract, they remain at the level of
slogans, at the level of maxims, and in fact are not possible for the central government to fulfill without admitting defeat (these are
requirements for reorganizing the system, major reforms, rights, resignation of the central government, etc.). But it is precisely these
demands that are looked at and they are the ones who find a response from those who do not have access to a narrow local agenda, due to
remoteness and lack of involvement (the demand for the freedom of an individual, for example, Golunov, is of little interest to a
politically not involved person in advance, if it does not imply a general protest against the practice of fabricating cases,

Both the first and second types of requirements are a necessary part of success. The former are concentrated in the form of specific
resolutions, while the latter form an aura of seriousness of intentions. The exclusion of one or the other is fatal. This either (if the
first narrow type of requirements is excluded) will disperse the protest, make it not substantive, but in some circumstances moving towards
violence, or (if broad demands are excluded) will sharply reduce the number of support for the protest, bleed it, close the mechanisms of
solidarity.

Now the main demands of the protesters are as follows. They took shape from the protest itself, and were voiced in the form of slogans:

Transfer of the court session from Moscow to Khabarovsk

Open court session

Jury trial

Vladimir Zhirinovsky provides legal confirmation of the stated requirements.

Sergei Furgal remains the governor until his guilt is proven in court.

In everyday language, everyone knows the saying "if you want to get 100, ask for 200", in the language of the classic protest "Be realistic,
demand the impossible."

Representatives of the local Liberal Democratic Party have already turned on the "slogan police" and it is gradually spreading in an
environment of spontaneous protest, becoming consonant with the prohibitive rhetoric of other officials and the police in terms of holding
protest actions. This has the potential to split the protesters and quench the protest. While he is undermining, but does not subside and is
not being provoked.

Message: 2



On July 9, the Bulgarian people suddenly stirred in their sleep. ---- The reason was given by the bandits who keep the law, unceremoniously
trampling on all kinds of democratic masks. The violence that sustains any power has been demonstrated against the weaker presidential
government and against several circus directors trying to pretend to be "citizens." ---- Without suffering from unnecessary sympathy for the
victims, thousands of people came to the square the same day to remind the authorities that they still need to hide when they fight. The
protests have been going on for ten days, the police are trying to beat the people behind the cover of the columns that support the state
power, and the government looks more and more unstable.
The division is one
All sorts of politicians jumped to control the civil discontent. They went to battle for Bulgaria. The long-suffering president cried out
against the mutts. Candidates for the judiciary have been vying sharply against police violence. The opposition defends the rule of law.
Against them are the government, the prosecutor's office and most of the state machine. They are also against mutt and violence, and defend
the rule of law!

Everyone seems to want to unite us (under their rule!). And they constantly convince us that we are divided - left and right, smart and
stupid, beautiful and ugly, enterprising and lazy, Turks and Bulgarians.

But both in front of Dogan's "sheds" and in the "triangle of power" there is a real division: between ordinary people looking for a way to
survive, on the one hand, and millionaires and their servants, on the other.

Guards and Apaches
As all politicians and millionaires urge us for more law and power as they try to reduce discontent to the question of "Resign or not?",
Misery continues to grow . The crisis with COVID-19 somehow quickly faded into the background, somehow, by the way, the law suppressed the
workers even more - to the applause of the casino unions.

In fact, the most miserable people, who do not even work, but find it difficult to survive day after day in gypsy ghettos, abandoned
villages and cracked panels, have not yet sought their own. They are even easier to manipulate than "useful idiots" supporting someone's
power. Most of the most miserable are excited about protests and elections insofar as they can earn some money in the agitation of the more
solvent bandit.

What politicians call democracy does not live up to its name. It is not the power of the people, but the power of organized gangs, which now
bite, now lick each other, in the struggle for greater power over society. The law for them is not even a door in the field, but a bat or a
truncheon with which they beat anyone who tries to stop them. When they call on us to defend the institutions of democracy , they actually
want to defend the rules of the game they are playing against us.

The loser is the whole nation. Retirees make two yogurts and a loaf of bread a day. Gypsies do not live to retire. Children become obese
from an early age, separated from their parents and fed on cheap junk. Workers earn so much from their work that they prefer to do it
thousands of miles away. And if possible, take their children and fathers with them.

Winners win only for themselves. Dogan's sheds are only a small part of the property of the few billionaires and thousands of millionaires
who own everything significant in the country. They form a class of gesheftars who keep their group power uncompromising. Rich people like
Bozhkov and Peevski, politicians like Borisov and Cornelia, are fuses that will burn out if tensions rise - then they withdraw from the
stage and sink into obscurity to spend the millions made in favor of the oligarchy as citizens of the world. Several billion may change
owners, but the power of billionaires remains.

The state supports the bandits
Property is sacred and inviolable for every state . It is a form of power over objects, and through them - over people. Several thousand
bandits have transformed their power, acquired and preserved by violence, into property, and use it to increase their power to use violence.
The protests began as a great sign of awakening and an example of self-organization. But if they continue to defend such a "democracy",
demanding a "normal" or "rule of law", the "resignation" of the government and its replacement with a new one, they will only strengthen the
system of plunder . This is not and has never been democracy ( people's rule)! There is no "rule of law" anywhere! And Bulgaria is just as
"normal" as all the other countries - and in them few bandits rule a herd of manipulated people.

Living becomes a pleasure
Eat yourself and you will be eaten! Living becomes a pleasure.

This was said by the German humanist and knight Ulrich von Houten, facing the view of the warring Catholic and Protestant fanatics. This is
what we can say, watching the fights between the two clans of the Bulgarian mafia. The division between them is not because of "governance
models", programs and ideas, nor because of differences in their "moral" imperatives. The struggles of such entities have been and remain
struggles for power and money . And for a lot of money . Even more important for understanding what is happening is the fact that behind all
sorts of mobsters and patriots trying to lead the dissatisfied by the nose, are the geostrategic, financial and commercial interests of
larger or smaller imperialist predators.

Our suggestion
To those who want to break the system of plunder, we, the organized anarcho-communists, offer unification . Among all people who reject
power from man over man, and in particular its modern manifestations - statehood and property. Work to expose the brutal exploitation of the
disempowered by statesmen and capitalists. Work to create organized nuclei based on solidarity and mutual assistance among oppressed people.
Work to develop a revolutionary program for the destruction of power in Bulgaria.

The main task of revolutionary propaganda is to help what is left of the people. The rich drink his strength by robbery. Politicians and
their subterfuges make him dizzy with lies. Power turns him into a dying organism, doomed to feed its parasites to the last breath. Our goal
is to help him become a People. To restore trust and solidarity between ordinary people and help them organize against parasites. Against
the Government , with its oligarchs, thugs and prosecutors, to oppose the Anti- Government , organized through communes, militias, general
assemblies and councils.

Otherwise, Bulgaria will remain in existence, but there will be no Bulgarians, no Turks, no gypsies. And only a herd of subjects who bleat
under the windows of politicians for alms and resignations. Karavelov said that

The butcher slaughters the meekest cows, and the wild wolves are alive and well!

If they want to become wolves, the sheep must grit their teeth and organize themselves to fight!

The march against state repression and the implementation of the bill on demonstrations has been completed. The demonstration had about 500
people, while in the anarchist bloc of the local coordination APO-OS participated about 150. The banner read "STATE, FASCISTS, PARAGRATIST
ALL WORKS WORK TOGETHER" and shouted anti-government and anti-government slogans. Throughout the demonstration, the presence of the police
around the anarchist bloc was particularly provocative and there was tension with the guarding of the block and the MAT squad, but the
organized guard post acted as a deterrent. ---- NOT A STEP BACK ---- WE DON'T FORGET THE SOCIAL FIGHTER VASILIS MANGO ---- SOLIDARITY TO THE
ARRESTED OF THE ANTI-FASCIST CONCENTRATION IN THE VICTORIA PALACE

ON THE STREET WE WILL CRUSH THE JUNDOM

On Sunday morning we commemorated the eighth anniversary of the beginning of the radically democratic revolution in the North-Syrian region
known as Rojava as part of the international campaign. This is the unique outpost of ethnic and religious tolerance, ecology and women's
rights in a region with wars and dictatorships. As we long-term warning, the Rojavian democratization project threatens aggression by
Turkey, NATO Member State. ---- When the Rojava SDF units - the main part of which are YPG and YPJ militias - fought against the so-called
Islamic State, the Czech Republic and other NATO countries supported them. Now that the Turks are constantly attacking Rojava and
tyrannizing the residents with Islamist militias, Western governments have given their hands away from Kurds and other Rojava residents. But
we refuse to forget and the allies defending unique left-wing democracy just like that. That's why we placed an eight-meter flag of women's
YPJ on Vyšehrad railway bridge among other things.

We insist that Turkey is an extremely untrustworthy ´´ ally ". Turkey did not satisfy the occupation of the African canton in the spring of
2018 nor will it prevent a belt between the northern Syrian cities Tell Abyad and Serê Kaniyê last fall. No doubt his goal is to destroy
Kurdish emancipation movement as such. Proof of this is the need for massive attacks on the Kurdish Workers Party (PKK) positions and its
Jezidi allies in northern Iraq or the murder of three Kurdish women's movement near Kobane in recent weeks.

Besides Kurds, Turkey haunts all opposition. In addition to tens of thousands of activists and intellectuals there, two Czechs, Markétu
Všelichová and Miroslav Farkas, are also imprisoned as part of the ridiculous allegations of supporting terrorism, because they wanted to
build a field hospital in Rojava.

The VORR has long been calling on politicians to stop closing their eyes and acting before the oppression perpetrated by our formal partner.
According to activists, the short-sighted attitude of Turkey has shown fully to the refugee crisis, when the Turkish regime cynically uses
refugees for political pressure on Europe. The Syrian catastrophic situation continues to deepen its steps. Among other things, he cut off
hundreds of thousands of people there from the water when the Covid-19. pandemic started.

We observe the increase in authoritarian and nationalist tendencies across the world, unfortunately even in our countries and in the
countries called our allies. We are of the opinion that we must face international belongings against the predatory policies of people like
Turkish President Erdogan and any similar disruption and terrorization of innocent people.

We saw an example of such international solidarity recently when we managed to raise over pres 105 k (about 3,1 million crowns) to restore
water resources and other infrastructure in war-damaged northeast Syria. Another fundraiser is underway under the head of ´´ Art for Jinwar
´´ - here is the goal of raising 30 thousand euros for an ambulance for a women's ecologically functioning village in the Rojava canton of
Jazir (-> acab.link/s/oMs8kT). Similar form of support allows you to circumvent humanitarian bureaucracy , whose help too often dismantles
Syrian dictator Assad's regime.

What everyone can do against the occupation of Rojava is not to participate in an industry co-financing Erdoganovu's war machine: so simply
not to go on vacation to Turkey. It's not just about the money. We long-term believe that it is not enough to express support for fighting
thousands of kilometers away from Prague, but that we need to transfer into practice the ideas of autonomy, mutual assistance, ecology and
gender equality that we share with people in Rojava.

Long live international solidarity!
Let's defend the revolution in Rojava!
Let's defend the women's revolution!

Posted in: Pories - Events - Concentrations , uncategorized . Tagged: Suppression . Leave a comment ---- The demonstration against the state
repression is very massive this afternoon in Patras. About 200 people started marching from the Branch to Georgiou Square where they joined
at the invitation of other associations and organizations. ---- During the rally in Georgiou Square, comrades from the anarchist bloc
carried out organized attacks on the offices of the ND MPs Katsaniotis and Alexopoulos with slogans, colors and sledgehammers. This was
followed by a march on the main streets of the city. The guarding of the anarchist bloc was well organized, not allowing the mats, which
provocatively followed the demonstration, to approach.
NOT A STEP BACK NO SUBMISSION ON THE STREET TO CRUSH THE SUPPRESSION
No market!
