The uprising against the authoritarian over reach of the Indonesian government has been blossoming over the past two years
These actions have been organised by groups across the political spectrum with anarchists and adjecent individuals and collectives being a grass root element across the board.
In Pejompongan, Jakarta, on 28 August during a labour demonstration, the police ran down and killed Affan Kurniawan, a hard working and well liked delivery driver.
Affan was the first victim, deliberately killed by the police
The footage is horrific, the action inexcusable. It was a murder in front of thousands.
The country erupted in grief and anger leading to the ongoing state of play.
Depraved!- Only 14 of the 533 corrupt Congress refused to endorse and pay with public money for ongoing Israeli genocide, ethnic cleansing, torture, bombing, kidnapping, starvation….. and sadistic murder of thousands of innocent kids.
In a sane country with rule of international law ALL THESE 519 RULERS WOULD BE ARRESTED AS COMPLICIT AUTHORS IN GENOCIDE
How is this even possible??. Are all these Congress members multi millionaires basking in mega donations from Israel and the Corporate/Military?
Can we blame the US public ?- brain-fogged by a 24/7 media propaganda Blitz?- or by hyper consumption based on mega debt by Dollar and Military hegemony.??
Now we’re deep into Trump 2 the US appears lost in a ‘post-truth amoral dystopia’, desperately trying to coerce or blackmail the rest of us and their own citizens for profit and greed….

“The most impassioned and articulate in condemning the most grotesque US foreign policy in its 250 years is Georgia Republican Marjorie Taylor Green.
She doesn’t hold back while the 519 congresspersons who dare not jeopardize their standing with the Israel Lobby cower in the background.
“I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to pay for genocide in a foreign country against a foreign people for a foreign war that I had nothing to do with. And I will not be silent about it.”
Greene is an outlier in the Israeli genocide loving Republican Party.
Amazingly ALL 272 other Republicans in the House and Senate want nothing to do with Greene’s principled stance.
Democrats are just a tiny bit less brutally implicated in the endless daily slaughter of defenceless starving children and their families
Protesters across Indonesia have launched another day of confrontational demonstrations, with the uprising that has gripped the country in recent days showing no signs of abating.
Initially opposing both steep tax hikes and lavish wage- and […]
Submedia just put this out: —– Rioting has broken out across Indonesia.
In the midst of economic hardship and historic inflation, lawmakers voted to give themselves a housing allowance 10 times the minimum wage.
By August 28th, protests and riots had spread to Jakarta, Makassar, Bandung, Medan, and Pontianak
Police have arrested over 700 and killed a motorcycle taxi driver, running him over with an armored vehicle.
As the situation continues to escalate, anarchists are raising funds to establish a network of safe houses for protesters and frontline activists at risk.
In Gaza City, I Have Surrendered to an Unknown Fate

I’m camped out on the rubble of my home as the Israeli army gets closer every day
Like so many other Palestinians in Gaza, I have ended up in a tent—the enduring symbol of displacement. I am camped out on the rubble with my husband and five children in western Gaza City.

The merciless Israeli military machine is bearing down on us, getting closer every day and there is nothing we can do. But we won’t leave here. Not long ago, we were living in my friend’s house in northern Gaza City. Our home was destroyed by Israel a few weeks into the war, in early November 2023. My friend fled to Egypt in December 2023.

But earlier this month, the Israeli military began to implement Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to invade, seize, and ethnically cleanse Gaza City and force over a million Palestinians southward.

Tenerife: Two members of a fascist anti squat company have surrendered at a local police station.. with a mutilated corpse víctim in the car.
The 2 ‘Desokupa Ara’ directors confessed to the murder and are arrested.n the Spanish State its now common for far right criminal groups to set up ‘Squatter Removal’ companies staffed with their thugs and even attempt to evict Squat Centers as the cops stand by.
See Research Desokupas: six parts-
In the early hours of the night of July 31, two men parked in front of one of the police stations of the National Police of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. In the rear seat they carried a body with clear signs of a violent death.
Inside the vehicle was the Kickboxing fighter Andrés Moisés Baute, who admitted being perpetrator of the homicide.
Shortly after Jonathan Martín, gate keeper of a well -known disco in the area, also surrendered
According to the published information, the victim is known as Albertito . That same day, his partner had denounced his disappearance.
Although the investigation is still ongoing, one of the main hypotheses is that Alberto fought his aggressors, since he was a person of great corpulence and assiduous at the gym.
Subsequently, he would have received numerous blows, and could even have been tortured.
Police consider the possibility that it is an adjustment of accounts linked to drug trafficking.
To all this is added the existence of another person who remains hospitalized, and who allegedly would have also received a brutal beating by the two detainees.
Jonathan de Desokupa Ara y Andres Moises Baute
Baute, known as ‘MOI the ears, and a kickboxing fighter, appears to be the sole administrator of the company I Desokupa now (legally using the name of the Canary Islands Assets Union, B06997704).
Yesterday I was asked by a friend who’s into Spirituality, if I believed that to reach a higher, spiritual level he had to go through penalties or Supplications (I dont remember the word I used.)
He replied yes fasting, meditations, rare yoga postures and those things …
I asked “if a slap in your face would improve your spirituality?”
He got quite pissed off, I don’t see why.
Let’s see.. if fasting makes you more spiritual and sanctified, then taking into account the amount of famine in the world, people would be be almost flying in Gaza, people who are literally dying of hunger due to the blockade by the state of Israel and starvation by Europe.
In reality we see that people who go hungry are dedicated to looking for food.
Ok there’s a big difference between fasting and forced hunger.
To fast and be spiritual, you have to be rich, or not have to work. In a famine, oh.. the baby dies in the arms of his/her mother! I don’t even want to think about it.
As for other Supplications such as meditating … Consider the amount of time we have survived without television or the Internet.
La mejor manera de evitar que un hombre enferme es matarlo mientras se encuentra bien. Vanzetti [1]
A bordo de un transatlántico procedente de las Américas, “El Adriático”, en la White Start Line, dos italianos charlan entre sí. Matan el tiempo hablando de la suerte de dos condenados a muerte, Sacco y Vanzetti.
¿Nicola Sacco y Bartolomeo Vanzetti? Precisamente. Italianos-americanos como ellos. Arrastrados ante los tribunales de Massachusetts por dos atracos, uno de los cuales salió completamente mal. Protestan que son tan blancos como el cordero recién nacido.

Es lo que se habla en los cafés. Todo el mundo se pone en pie en su defensa. El “asunto” es como para darle vueltas a la cabeza: hay filosofías sobre la inocencia y la culpabilidad, sobre la política, la violencia y el crimen, sobre la xenofobia, sobre la tolerancia con la gente que no piensa como tú.
Los dos pasajeros parecen compinchados, pero es sólo una apariencia. En realidad, uno de ellos está interrogando al otro. Su interlocutor, un joven robusto, delgado y bien parecido, no es demasiado inteligente, sobre todo cuando se trata de responder a preguntas que podrían despertar sospechas.
Pero hablan el mismo idioma, una mezcla de inglés e italiano. Y ambos son, ¡per bacco! anarquistas.
¿Anarquistas, qué es eso?
Buena pregunta, camarada. Vanzetti, uno de los acusados, te informará:
Y, nosotros, modestos obreros anarquistas, crecimos sin la ayuda de la escuela, en nuestros pobres hogares, sobrecargados de trabajo y sufriendo desde el nacimiento, e hicimos y creímos lo que nuestros enemigos obreros hicieron, creyeron y vivieron. Éramos como nuestros enemigos y adversarios.
Sólo que, a través de un incesante trabajo mental, una larga y terrible prueba de conciencia, hemos llegado a ser diferentes, como somos ahora. Es decir, hemos analizado, condenado y repudiado todas las concepciones, creencias, todos los criterios y principios que nos fueron inculcados desde nuestra infancia hasta el día en que se inauguraron nuestras nuevas convicciones. [2]
En otras palabras, el anarquista es un individuo que excita su cerebro: es diferente del idiota.
Protesto, Señoría. Durante la Belle Époque, ésta no fue su única especialidad. En los grupos italianos y franceses, una minoría particularmente radical ensalzaba las virtudes de las pistolas y la dinamita.
Practicaban la “propaganda por los hechos”, el ejemplo de la revuelta contra los “tiranos”.El anarquista está en guerra contra “la camarilla de senadores malcriados, diputados corruptos y carniceros de uniforme, la podredumbre de los envenenadores de cerebros, la rapacidad de los que matan de hambre al pueblo”. Canta Ravachole. Se prepara para la Gran Noche. Un escupitajo de tinta diría que quiere “desestabilizar a la clase dirigente”.
fasting, meditations, rare yoga postures and those things …
