Rebellion and Queer Sweetness Manifesto

From Rebellion and Queer Sweetness

INTRO: PURPOSE

Attempts at reenvisioning our future as a place of solidarity, mutual aid, equity and degrowth require questioning existing power structures. Addressing social inequities is at the very heart of criticising authoritian structures and without it, we can never enable egalitarian and equitable relationships that are key to any anarchist vision.

Our Silence Pisses Us Off!

From internationalist Anarchists Leipzig

Whether Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Yemen, Bangladesh or the Polish-Belarusian primeval forests and Europe’s outsourced borders in Libya, Egypt and Tunisia – terrible news of countless crimes and unimaginable suffering are coming from everywhere. Germany, truly a picture-book national power of the 21st century, is deeply involved in all these atrocities economically, militarily and politically.

From our internationalist anarchist perspective, we want to deal with these issues in this group, show solidarity and become active.

Nihilist Pragmatism

So the law did what it does and took the rights away from millions in the matter of a day. People showed up in the streets to protest but all theyre doin is beggin the government to give em their rights back. Dont they know thats not how this works? They can post as many instagram stories and hold as many candlelight vigils as they want but shit aint gonna change. A democrat tells me that what theyre doin is spreading awareness so that their guy can get in office and do the thing that gives us our rights back. Bull fucking shit! Their guys in office and let this slide! Im sure as hell not waitin 20 fuckin years for the incremental change to give us the right that was taken away from us in a single day. Whos to say they wont just take it back when their guys outta office? Isnt that what always happens? Well im not fucking havin it. No no no no. Tonights the night it changes. Tonights the night I throw a brick through a fuckin window!

Presentation text of Anarchist Circle “La Faglia”

From Act for Freedom Now!

Original Full title: Foligno, Italy: Presentation text of Anarchist Circle “La Faglia” and poster for its opening on 15th and 16th October.

So, why “La Faglia” [fissure, crack]? Firstly, because this is a land of earthquakes, consequently of speculation and abandonment of the mountains. [...] But not only. Above all we see La Faglia as a moment of rupture, because – convinced that negation is what heightens the intellect – we prefer to open up cracks rather than ‘build bridges’.

Anarchism for termites: A manifesto

From Autonomies
For Bruno Latour (1947-2022)

When we began to write this “Manifesto”, it was to compliment an earlier exercise in manifesto writing – A moss-like anarchist manifesto – and to continue the sceptical exercise of distilling images and concepts from parallel reflections that have served as inspiration for our own, in this case, Bruno Latour’s essay, After Lockdown: A Metamorphosis.

A moss-like anarchist manifesto

From autonomies

A legend tells us that Christian soldiers took the city of Béjar in spain from its Muslim-Arab inhabitants in the 12th century by disguising themselves with coverings of moss, enabling them thereby to enter the city gates by surprise.[1]

Our task is more modest, sharing only transgressive affinities with the legend.[2] Though we are sceptical of manifestos, they can nevertheless serve to distil images and thoughts. These of course can only be the consequence of momentary inspirations.

What follows finds its animus in an essay by bryologist Robin Wall Kimmerer, entitled Gathering Moss, passages of which we also share below.[3] From moss then we gather a few ideas on what a contemporary anarchist politics might be.

Presenting: Anarchist Correspondences

Contributions to the Informal and Insurrectional Anarchist tendency

Since the end of the summer of 2019, a number of anarchist internationalist comrades of the informal and insurrectionary tendency, anticipating an international initiative – postponed for reasons of force majeure – have been engaged in a correspondence around the situation and about the current conditions of the anarchic galaxy of action around the world. By tracking not only their extreme positions but also their shortcomings, multiple affinities emerged not only between the different comrades but even between the multiple tensions that exist.

Nora219a Manifesto

from Nora 219Ⓐ

We are a family group of Wolfens, that is a grassroot movement for the protection of the Carpathian Forest. We operate as an intersectional collective. We make decisions by consensus. We believe that we can function as we would like the world to function: without hierarchy, human domination over other beings, patriarchy, queerphobia and fascism. With radical empathy and care.
