After the initial wave of terror and fury, my post-election tactic has mostly been dissociation. Out of safety, out of self-protection. I know that ignoring these truths won’t save me- that I need to engage, to stand in solidarity with the homies- with the scientists- with the immigrants and children of immigrants- with the Muslims- with the Mexicans- with the queers- with the artists.. but something about the way the… …
Punitive raids were expanded at the turn of the month, as police continue to try and pin recent incendiary attacks in Porto Alegre on the anarchist movement. Activists in the city reported on November 30th that: Operation Erebo (Operação Érebo) attacked anarchists once again. They invaded some houses, stealing things and destroying everything in their path. At this stage we don’t know whether any other homes were invaded. Communication is precarious… …

I will start from the knot between two of the concepts that are proposed to the reflection of our panel: equality and emancipation. I will briefly recall the two main points that are implied for me in the idea of emancipation. The first one is that equality is not a goal to be reached. It is not a common level, an equivalent amount of riches or an identity of living… …

“If the Russian Revolution becomes the signal for a proletarian revolution in the West, so that both complement each other, the present Russian common ownership of land may serve as the starting point for a communist development.” Marx/Engels – Preface to the Russian edition of the manifesto, 1882. This perspective was not realized. The European industrial proletariat missed its rendez-vous with a revitalized Russian peasant commune. Brest-Litovsk, 1917 and 1939… …
ΚΑΤΩ ΤΑ ΧΕΡΙΑ ΑΠΟ ΤΟ ΕΜΠΡΟΣ! Αυτή η εικόνα με το σκαμμένο πεζοδρόμιο και την ασπροκόκκινη κορδέλα είναι μια συνηθισμένη εικόνα για το Εμπρός. Την είδαμε όταν μας έκοψαν το ρεύμα τη βλέπουμε ξανά από χθες που μας ξανα-έκοψαν για πολλοστή φορά το νερό! Είναι η εικόνα της κρατικής καταστολής. Η εικόνα της “ασφυξίας” που μας επιβάλλεται ξανά και ξανά από το κράτος και την, κατ’ ευφημισμό αριστερή, κυβέρνηση. Την… …

[English+Ελληνικά] Imagine if the people of the Soviet Union had never heard of communism. The ideology that dominates our lives has, for most of us, no name. Mention it in conversation and you’ll be rewarded with a shrug. Even if your listeners have heard the term before, they will struggle to define it. Neoliberalism: do you know what it is? Its anonymity is both a symptom and cause of its… …

The mass revolts throughout the world show clearly that human beings begin at last to resist the order of those who command without asking us, the orders of those who think that under their thrones there are willing idiots for serving their interests, loyal subjects who bow their head to the exploitation, the oppression, the inequality and the misery they experience every day. We are not slaves to any government, to… …
