In the age of disinformation, irony is dead. It's very dangerous to make false assertions of our own, even in jest.

Therefore, for April 1, we recommend "Put the Bots in Charge"—a set of demands composed entirely via predictive text generated on the basis of our early book Recipes for Disaster.

And After the War?

cwc.im/AftertheWar2022

How will the outcome of the war shape the prospects for social struggle in Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia?

We've translated a text from Russia exploring the perils of identifying with the Ukrainian government, emphasizing the responsibility liberals share for the situations in Russia and Belarus today, and discussing the opportunities and obstacles facing revolutionary movements in the region.

The war in Ukraine is a step towards a world of permanent militarization, in which the Israeli model of militarized policing will become the norm and brute force will be the chief means of resolving political differences. Massive refugee populations displaced by wars and economic and ecological crises will be segregated according to national and ethnic hierarchies—received into welcoming homes, crowded into internment camps, or pushed back into the borderlands to die.

In response, anarchists seek to establish solidarity between anti-war, anti-nationalist, and anti-state movements across all borders and lines of difference. Rather than identifying with any government or capitalist coterie (and pointing to the misdeeds of some to excuse the misdeeds of others), we aim to build the capacity to interrupt war and exploitation via grassroots action. Anticipating the challenges that social movements throughout the region will face after this war could help us to set our priorities.

Фетишизирование гильотины - это как фетишизирование государства: это значит славить инструмент убийства, который будет использоваться прежде всего против нас.

The City in the Forest

Reinventing Resistance for an Age of Climate Crisis and Police Militarization

https://cwc.im/CityintheForest

Since April 2021, police abolitionists and environmentalists have been engaged in a furious struggle to prevent the destruction of a precious stretch of forest in Atlanta, Georgia, where the government aims to build a police training compound and facilitate the construction of a giant soundstage for the film industry. In the following analysis, participants in the movement chronicle a year of action, charting the movement’s victories and setbacks and exploring the strategies that inform it. This campaign represents a crucial effort to chart new paths forward in the wake of the George Floyd Rebellion, linking the defense of the land that sustains us with the struggle against police.

Scenes from a year of struggle to defend the forest in Atlanta, Georgia.

More World, Less Bank—An Oral History of the A16 Demonstrations against Global Capitalism

https://cwc.im/A16

On April 16, 2000, tens of thousands of people gathered in Washington, DC to mobilize against the spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank. It was a watershed moment in the global anti-capitalist movement.

While the demonstrations that shut down the summit of the World Trade Organization in 1999 have become famous, this oral history including testimony and archival materials from dozens of participants in the demonstrations of A16 is among the first efforts to chronicle the subsequent mobilization in DC.

Se faire voler par le·la patron·ne ?

Le 15 avril est la Journée « Vole Quelque Chose au Travail ! »

https://fr.crimethinc.com/steal-something-from-work-day

Ton·ta patron·ne travaille-t-iel moins que toi mais gagne-t-iel un plus gros salaire ? Est-ce que quelqu’un se déplace en voiture avec chauffeur·euse ou en jet privé à tes frais ? Si l’entreprise gagne de l’argent à la fin de la journée, cela signifie qu’elle ne te paie pas la pleine valeur de ton travail — c’est de là que viennent les bénéfices d’entreprises ! Donc, si tu as besoin de quelque chose sur ton lieu de travail, prends-le. Tu l’as mérité !

Vom Boss ausgeraubt werden?

Am 15. April ist Beklau-deinen-Arbeitsplatz-Tag

https://de.crimethinc.com/steal-something-from-work-day

Arbeitet dein Chef weniger als du, verdient aber mehr? Schwirrt jemand in einem Privatjet auf deine Kosten herum? Wenn das Unternehmen am Ende des Tages Geld verdient, bedeutet das, dass es dir nicht den vollen Wert deiner Arbeit zahlt - so entsteht der Gewinn eines Unternehmens! Wenn du also etwas an deinem Arbeitsplatz brauchst, nimm es. Du hast es dir verdient!

Klaue etwas von deiner Arbeit! Du kannst es mit deinen FreundInnen teilen oder es deiner Familie geben - der Familie, die du wegen deines Jobs nie siehst. Du könntest es selbst nutzen, um etwas zu tun, von dem du schon immer geträumt hast - vielleicht etwas, das all das Potenzial nutzt, das in dir steckt, dass du aber nicht nutzen kannst, weil du die ganze Zeit für jemand anderen arbeiten musst.

Sdírá tě tvůj šéf?

Na 15. dubna je vyhlášeno heslo: „Ukradni něco z práce!“

https://cs.crimethinc.com/steal-something-from-work-day

Maká tvůj šéf míň než ty, ale přitom má na výplatní pásce vyšší číslo? Prohání se někdo v soukromém tryskáči na tvé náklady? Pokud na konci dne korporace vydělává peníze, znamená to, že ti neplatí plnou cenu tvé práce – tak vzniká její zisk! Takže jestli něco potřebuješ, vem si to. Vydělal sis to!

Dostaneš jen to, co si vezmeš. Už s tebou vyjebávali dost dlouho.

האם הבוס שלך עובד פחות שעות ממך אבל מרוויח יותר כסף? מנכ”לית החברה מסתובבת בעולם על חשבונך? אם התאגיד בו את/ה עובד/ת רווחי, זה אומר שלא משלמים לך את הערך המלא של עבודתך – זה הרי מקור הרווחים של התאגיד! אז אם את/ה זקוק/ה למשהו שיש במקום העבודה שלך, קח/י אותו. הרווחת את זה ביושר!

15 april: Steel Van Je Werk! – CrimethInc.
Beroofd door je baas?

15 april is Steel Van Je Werk Dag!

Werkt de baas minder dan jij, maar neemt die wel meer geld mee naar huis? Vliegt er iemand in een privéjet rond op jouw kosten? Als het bedrijf aan het eind van de dag geld verdient, dan betekent dit dat ze je niet de volledige waarde van je arbeid betalen – daar komen bedrijfswinsten vandaan! Dus als je iets nodig hebt in je werkplek – neem het! Je hebt het verdiend!
