Anarchist panic and the Greek State

From Freedom News UK

The continuous expansion and ever more ridiculous implementation of anti-terrorist laws is a shared reality across many countries. We have reached a point where anyone who protests or campaigns for a better world knows that anti-terrorist laws could be brought into play at any moment. The question of how to respond is then more pressing than ever.

The Relevance of the Prairieland Conviction to Printers and Zine Distributors

A COLLABORATIVE DRAFT STATEMENT REGARDING THE RELEVANCE OF THE PRAIRIELAND CONVICTION TO PRINTERS AND ZINE DISTRIBUTORS (posted without editing and without talking to anyone who might know more about the case than we do. We would rather open the dialogue & polish in the comments)

If you haven't been following the Prairieland "antifa terrorist enterprise" case, it ended pretty fucking bad. Comrades were convicted on federal felony charges based on activities such as owning a printer and moving a box of zines into a car.

Perpetual War is the Price of the State’s Existence

From No Selves, No Masters: Nondominational Dharma

I have been doing a deep dive on Mikhail Bakunin‘s philosophy. The Political Philosophy of Mikhail Bakunin, by G.P. Maximoff is an excellent resource. Most of Bakunin’s theoretical writings are scattered throughout various articles, letters, manifestoes and half-finished manuscripts, and as a result his theoretical contributions to anarchism are often overlooked. Maximoff’s book is a sort of “Bakunin mixtape” which collects and organizes all of his theoretical writings into a relatively coherent narrative.

An Anarchist Critique of Bhagat Singh’s Marxist-Leninism and Theory of the State

From archit

Bhagat Singh was an anti-colonial revolutionary born in the Punjab region of modern-day Pakistan in 1907. He became a household name upon taking part in many pivotal events preceding the eventual independence, and separation, of the Indian and Pakistan states from British control. Singh, with others, assassinated a British officer named John Saunders in 1928, believing him to be senior ranking James Scott in Lahore who had played a hand in the death of another Indian revolutionary. After evading arrest, Singh and Hindustani Socialist Republican Association (HSRA) member Batukeshwar Dutt detonated two non-fatal bombs during a meeting of the central legislative assembly in New Delhi’s parliament in 1929. While imprisoned, he participated in a hunger strike protesting discrimination between the treatment of Indian prisoners compared to the British. After a long and dramatic trial that drew widespread public attention and debate, Singh and accomplices Shivaram Rajguru and Sukhdev Thapar were executed by hanging in 1931.
