With Ambulance Chasers Like These, Who Needs Enemies?

From MTL Counter-info

On March 9th, 2011, in Midan El-Tahrir in Egypt, the Egyptian military arrested an estimated 18 women. They tortured them and carried out “virginity tests” to be able to prosecute them for “prostitution” – a charge any unmarried woman who is not a virgin faces in most of the Arab world. In Egypt “prostitution” carries a punishment of up to seven years, and obviously social and cultural death if not an honor killing by the families. Women faced persecution for taking part in protests and various occupations of the square because of this case, combined with horrendous sexual assaults by security forces in the Midan. This story on its own reflects the severe consequences of conservative society. Conservatism is anti-insurrection, developed and encouraged by states to control ‘the crowd’ and ‘the people’.

Demos: Bad?

From MTL Counter-info

A discourse attached to an affect in relation to demonstrations has percolated on the margins of the milieu of late. “I’m not really interested in demos right now”, “Demos are very limiting”, they say. The leftist tendency to make calling a demo the default response to social problems has rightly attracted criticism. But these critiques are now being used to mask an entirely different position, according to which no demos are worth our time.

Constellation 2026: Call for Tables and Workshops

Constellation is now accepting tabling reservations and workshop proposals for both days of the festival weekend – the Anarchist Bookfair taking place on Saturday, May 16th and the Anarchist Skill Faire taking place on Sunday, May 17th.

Announcing Constellation 2026

Everywhere we look, the forces of domination strain to keep our worlds within reach of the death star of authority. In a new era of competing nationalisms, the Canadian state reconditions its war on the land and those who live in relation with it by threatening new mines and pipelines from coast to coast. Plans converge toward a massive expansion of the military. AI mass surveillance technologies augment the already unchecked power of the police.
