‘Deniz is the daughter of the people of Kurdistan,’ say the parents of Deniz Poyraz
Whilst the killing of HDP party worker Deniz Poyraz in an armed attack in Izmir HDP building has caused a public outrage in Turkey, people have rushed to the house of her family to show solidarity and support.
Protests throughout Turkey have continued since yesterday, when Onur Gencer, a man who fought with Turkey’s affiliated gangs in Syria and reportedly a supporter of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), a junior coalition member of the Turkish government, walked into the Peoples’ Democratic Party’s (HDP’s) office in Izmir and shot and killed Deniz Poyraz, a Kurdish woman who was a member and a worker of the HDP in cold blood as she ate her breakfast.
Two people have committed suicide this week before the judicial decision to be evicted from their homes.
Last Monday a 58-year-old man, who was about to be evicted from the Barcelona neighborhood of Sants, took his own life after the judicial procession knocked on the door of his home with the will to execute the order.
The information transmitted by the housing unions explains that the man lived in rent and had not paid rent for months, for which the owner had filed a lawsuit.

‘These events arise from the need to contribute consciously to the actualisation of anarchism, encouraging debate, criticism and reflection concerning our ideas and practices in the times we are living.
Considering the situation in recent times (revolts in various parts of the planet, repression, increased social control, confinement, etc.) and being aware that just a small spark is necessary for the flame to spread, with these meetings we would like to contribute to continue expanding whatever confrontation with power.
Constant reflection of our ideas can help us to find the way to give a response to the conditions of oppression imposed by the present system of domination.
We’re calling this meeting as one more small contribution. We want to continue generating meeting spaces, from our individuality and collective struggles, in permanent conflict against all the establishment, and continue to generate networks based on the tireless negation of whatever authority.
We await you!

The Case against Capitalism (And the Alternatives)
Introduction
When it comes to business operations, I advocate for Non-Capitalist Economic models which I would summarize as the following: Cooperatives and horizontal human relationships based on mutual benefit instead of Capitalism, Hierarchy, and human relationships based on Bargaining Power.
In other words, workplace democratization and autonomy instead of a workforce oligarchy.
The following article will be relentlessly Anti-Capitalism. However, I’d like to start off by giving Capitalism credit where it’s due.
At some point, Capitalism was a step forward for humanity; especially when compared to Feudalism and Slavery. The reasons for this are largely due to decentralization.
Decentralization ideally suggests more innovative space and freedom alongside lower risks that would typically be present in centralized systems.
Just as businesses have extremely high rates of failure, running massive nations under strictly top-down arrangements is both risky and despotic.
Years pass, and journalist Julian Assange languishes in a British jail. His crime? Truthful reporting of U.S. military atrocities in Iraq, reporting that sparked a lust for vengeance among U.S. politicos and military men. With Assange, the American empire would manage what imperialists couldn’t with whistleblower Edward Snowden, who slipped through their fingers by wisely fleeing to Russia – namely, torture him to death in prison.
For whatever reason, perhaps a mistaken belief in the rule of law, the power of a free press and the force of public opinion, Assange did not take refuge in Russia, China or Venezuela. This was a fatal mistake. Legal niceties simply fall like matchsticks in the wind when the empire takes offense. Its gaudy invocations of truth and justice are then exposed as mere words.
The HDP Spokespersons for Foreign Affairs have released a statement about the armed attack that claimed the life of Deniz Poyaz in HDP İzmir office: “This attack once again shows that HDP has been targeted, as in every chaotic, critical process.
