The Year Ahead in 2024

From Surviving Leviathan with Peter Gelderloos

Hey everyone,

The second round of chemo has knocked me on my ass but, writing from bed, I wanted to get out a little newsletter.

This is a partially facetious, partially serious forecast for the next 15 years, or more specifically, an adjustment to what we might expect out of the next 15 years, as seen from this current bend in the road at the very beginning of 2024.

Nikos Maziotis on his 4th rejection of parole

Write to anarchist prisoners!

Via Act for freedom now!

Comrade Roupa’s attitude was no different from mine. Together we took political responsibility for our participation in Revolutionary Struggle, together we defended the organization’s action as political action in and out of court, and we remained consistent throughout our detention. Neither can it be intellectually claimed that Comrade Roupa “transformed” her character in prison, nor did she change her political beliefs and views and was released unrepentant with her head held high. This is actually our own political victory against the state.

Sentence of the Bialystok appeal trial

Full original title: Rome, Italy: Sentence of the Bialystok appeal trial (28th November 2023)

Tuesday 28th November the second instance judgement concerning “Operation Bialystok” was issued. The Public Prosecutor’s appeal request seemed poor from the motivational point of view, so much so that the Attorney General (representing the prosecution at this stage of the trial) asked at the end of the trial that the penalties imposed at the first degree trial be confirmed

Mónica Caballero & Francisco Solar Sentenced in Chile

Via Abolition Media

During the hearing that took place in room 703 of the “justice” center in Santiago, the multifunctional and unlimited deployment that the state carried out together with the business community, to convict both comrades, came to an end.

ERIC KINGS RELEASE FUND IS CLOSE TO REACHING ITS GOAL

Via Unoffensive Animal

Vegan anarchist prisoner Eric King, incarcerated since 2014, will soon be released from prison, hopefully before/in February 2024. The fundraiser for Eric’s release has almost reached its goal. If you can help, all donations will go to Eric and help him get back on his feet outside the prison walls.

Toby Shone, currently incarcerated in Category B prison HMP Garth, is receiving no mail – including his legal mail from his lawyers – and any money being sent into him to be added to his prison account is being restricted to only those persons on his approved contact list. If you are intending to send him a letter, it is suggested that you send you message via https://www.emailaprisoner.com/, which he is currently able to receive. If you want to send him money and are not on his approved contact list, Toby suggests you send it to his support group (bank account details below).

What's New with Anarchy Planet IRC/Matrix

IRC the world!

Almost five years ago we resurrected the Anarchy Planet IRC in an attempt to create a new space for anarchist chat. Anarchy Planet IRC has been around in various iterations on and off since 2005ish or so. We're still around, only now we also have Matrix, a modern federated chat with lots of bells and whistles and GUIs for those who prefer those kinds of things. The two are bridged together--There are IRC-only channels and Matrix-only channels, and there are channels where the two are intertwined; you can join IRC and chat with Matrix users and vice versa.
