It is not a matter of denying the actual existence of a virus going around, but to realize that the knowledge of its characteristics, how it spreads, how it can be tackled, but also the data concerning its impact, is in the hands of scientists around the globe, who often don’t agree even among themselves about how to interpret them or what practical conclusions they would entail.
How can we resist?
So we need to do more than just protest. We can act independently and without advance notice with groups of friends. Posters, stickers, leaflets, banner drops and graffiti all communicate directly with other people and create an atmosphere of urgent revolt.
We are Heathen
The spell that we have been living under all our lives is weakening, sister. The world is changing and everyone is just holding their breath […]
If Truth is the First Casualty of War, then who are we fighting?
Furthermore, it should be pointed out that social media platforms are scrubbing their platforms of any information deemed to be contrary to the recommendations of Public Health. This type of censorship works to create a type of groupthink by making criticism of lockdown measures seem like an extremist ideology, by placing it outside the bounds of what it is acceptable to say. The next logical step is the persecution of thoughtcrime, the imprisonment of dissidents & undesirables.
The world has gone mad
The world has gone mad again, And as the gulf between what is thinkable And what is sayable grows wider and wider I wonder what […]
To reclaim autonomy, ask different questions
When we are actually carrying out our own project, it becomes easier to make an independent assessment of the situation, parsing the torrent of information and recommendations for ourselves and asking what is actually suitable for our goals and priorities.
On the Anarchist response to Covid-19
That is why we write today. To reach out to our friends, our comrades, our intellectual and philosophical allies to ask that if you haven’t yet, that you begin to seriously critique and question the state responses to the Covid19 pandemic that we are witnessing around the world.
Our position on the Covid-19 Crisis
All of this prompted us to start asking some serious questions about the narrative we were being fed. That involved a fair bit of reading around and keeping an open mind. Yes, that process did take us into some weird areas that were veering towards what some would term as conspiracy theory. It also led us to take a look at some of the alt right takes on the issue so we could understand how they were exploiting people’s concerns about the lockdown for their own ends. All of this was a necessary research process that helped with our building the list of COVID-19 crisis readings on this blog. A list that we’re prepared to defend as not, in our opinion, going anywhere near conspiracy theory.
The Emerging Political Divide
Fear is an amazing tool for securing compliance from the populace for whatever nefarious aims the government of the day and their corporate backers may have in mind.
Kissing is Prohibited
However, if Dominion wants us totally dependent on it, if the State cancels social and in part also economic life, that means that we don’t need the State. That we can self-organize our initiatives, our forms of education, our economies, our leisure. And also in this case we don’t need to resort to science fiction but to experience, memory, our will and courage.
We shall abolish the orgasm!
The moral to be drawn from this dangerous nightmare situation is a simple one. Don’t let it happen. It depends on you.
Comment pouvons nous résister?
Nous devons donc faire plus qu’uniquement protester. Nous pouvons agir de manière indépendante et sans préavis avec des groupes d’ami.es. Les affiches, les autocollants, les dépliants, les bannières et les graffitis forment un ensemble signes pour communiquer directement avec d’autres personnes et insufler un sentiment de révolte imminente.
Notre dignité en quarantaine – Un rapport d’anarchistes sur la Grèce
Quel virus? Présentement, on ne peut le savoir. Toutes les informations, nombres et statistiques qui justifient le confinement imposé est entre les mains du gouvernement et des spécialistes qui travaillent à son service. Ce n’est pas un déni de l’existence du virus qui court, mais la reconnaissance de ses caractéristiques, de sa propagation comment y faire face.
Bienvenue a Nevermore!
La bonne nouvelle est que le courage et l’inspiration sont aussi contagieux que la peur et le désespoir. Il est impératif que nous recherchions en nous-mêmes le courage de faire ce que nous devons faire pour assurer notre survie dans un monde de plus en plus tumultueux.
Introduction
Mais en ville, c’est le calme plat. Convaincus par le roi que le volcan n’est pas de tout en éruption et qu’aucun danger n’est à l’horizon, les citadin.es vaquent à leurs occupations quotidiennes; les biens sont achetés et vendus, les repas préparés et mangés, les couples mariés et les enfants éduqués.
Nous devrions tou.tes abolir l’orgasme.
Si tu veux un portrait du futur, imagine l’image une botte imprégnant un visage humain éternellement.
Camarades chilien.nes sur la crise du COVID
L’État décrète par la loi que les citoyen.nes sont sa propriété et il peut en disposer comme il l’entend. L’état d’urgence n’est pas imposé pour des raisons de santé ou pour le bien-être de la population, mais pour imposer des règles et pour inculquer la discipline. C’est en effet, le moyen le plus sûr d’obtenir l’obéissance, de semer la terreur et la peur.
