Anarchism has historically been essentially comprised of those who sought to live a world without authority and exploitation. The forms that this desire took, and continue to take, have varied greatly ideologically, organisationally, practically. The desire though has remained constant; it is a desire that has defined an ethics, a way of being in the world.
We share a modest part of an example of such an ethics, in the life of Lucio Utubia …
Lucio, The Good Bandit: Reflections of an Anarchist
Outspoken and charismatic, Lucio speaks like a true anarchist. When asked what it means to be an anarchist, Lucio refutes the misperception of the terrorist, “The anarchist is a person who is good at heart, responsible.” Yet he makes no apologies for the need to destroy the current social order, “it’s good to destroy…
Don’t just trust my word. Look into these issues for yourself., and better yet, find your own information.
Testing will soon begin in poverty-stricken parts of Africa for a biometric ID which will also be your payment system and vaccine record.
The biometric digital identity platformthat “evolves just as you evolve” is backed by none other than the Bill Gates-backed GAVI vaccine alliance, Mastercard, and the AI-powered “identity authentication” company, Trust Stamp.
The GAVI Alliance, which is largely funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates and Rockefeller Foundations, as well as allied governments and the vaccine industry, is principally concerned with improving “the health of markets for vaccines and other immunization products,” rather than the health of individuals.
According to its own website Mastercard’s GAVI partnership is directly linked to its “World Beyond Cash” effort, which mainly bolsters its business model that has long depended on a reduction in the use of physical cash.
Reducing the use of cash is needed (by them!). Cash is impossible to track, but if you use centralized digital currency, the ruling class has complete control over what you can spend.
If you found yourself googling “Can tear gas mess with your period” in the last few months, it turns out you aren’t alone.
Tear Gas is on the list of banned war weapons yet it is used against innocent civilians. Though it has devastating health effects, the male dominated research industry has never investigated its effects on women’s menstrual cycle.
Several people who were exposed to the tear gas during the recent protests in response to police brutality have come forward online to say they experienced painful disruptions to their menstrual cycle. These anecdotes have prompted concern over the chemical’s impact on reproductive health.
Mallory (who did not want to include her last name due to the personal nature of her experience) was tear gassed by the police in late May as part of a crowd of protestors in Columbus, Ohio. Four days later, she says she got her period — two weeks earlier than expected, and heavier and more painful than she had experienced in a long time.

“I was bleeding through my pants even with a tampon,” she said. “It was pretty overwhelming.”
Ultimately, Mallory says she had two periods in the length of her typical menstrual cycle — the early one, and then one at the usual time. But it wasn’t until she started seeing people connecting the dots between tear gas and menstrual irregularities online that she realized her recent exposure to tear gas might have something to do with it.
I’m a mess…I just started my period AGAIN. That’s the third time since repeatedly heavily exposure to teargas in the uprisings.Others are saying regardless of IUDs or taking T, they’re having multiple periods too. @ColumbusGov tell the people what’s happening to our bodies.
She talked to her gynecologist, who didn’t have answers as to whether there was a connection. But Mallory kept thinking about it. “It’s not normal for everyday civilians to be exposed to multiple rounds of tear gas,” she said.
Amid an uncertain time for hundreds of homeless people across Bristol, a magazine described as the ‘anarchist Big Issue’ is serving as a lifeline for those in need.
Dope, a quarterly paper, was launched in spring 2018 by Craig Clark, a 37-year-old anarchist based in London.
Novel research reveals that blocking exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) produces significant symptom changes in 90% of patients with autoimmune disease. No longer can it be ignored that manmade electromagnetic radiation poses innumerable risks to human health.
Concerns about electromagnetic fields (EMF) are branded pseudoscientific conspiracy theories and relegated to the realm of tin-hat wearing quackery.
Although we encounter natural microwave electromagnetic radiation in the form of cosmic radiation from outer space, the aurora borealis, and thunderstorms, the vast majority of electrosmog that we encounter is largely manmade (1).
Tash Peterson played audio clips of animals being “brutally murdered” inside Australian slaughterhouses.
An animal activist has been filmed outside a McDonald’s restaurant in a blood-coloured outfit as part of a brave and original protest.
Vegan Tash Peterson, 26, held a rubber pig’s head and played audio clips of animal screams by the entrance of the store in Western Australia.
Footage showed the masked activist, dressed in blood-stained white-coloured top and trousers, holding up a placard by the counters inside the restaurant while shocked customers watched on.
She then shouts at the customers: “The sounds you hear now are the sounds animals being brutally murdered inside Australian slaughterhouses.
“They suffocate to death, they are electrocuted or they have a bolt run straight to their brain.
We extract from Indymedia Barcelona and email various information about the eviction process of the squad Ca l´Espina, in the Gràcia neighborhood, with the holding of the first trial. A pressure campaign has started and a call for solidarity against the real estate agency Bojous S.L. For more information, you can visit the TW account of Ca l´Espina. For July 17, a property scandal has been called in Barcelona, waiting to confirm the place.
Next Monday, July 20, we face the first trial of Ca l’Espina, a criminal case against the second floor when we already had a civil case open against the whole building. The property forces legality by imposing a meaningless criminal route through a building that has remained empty, abandoned and neglected, filing a second criminal complaint as the first was filed and redirected to a civil lawsuit.
The speculative eagerness of this great landlord will not drive us away. We have already received the first signs of solidarity and we know that we are not alone in this city riddled with speculation and greed, we resist and will resist until the end, because we will not allow a neighborhood only for the rich and tourists. They won’t kick us out!
Barcelona Squatters Resist
We call for it to resonate on balconies, walls, and the entire city, in every way you can imagine, until it becomes clear to the property owner:
BOJOUS S.L. REMOVE COMPLAINTS
CA L’ESPINA RESISTS ———————————
Ca l’Espina, a building occupied last January at Carrer Astúries 12, in the district of Gràcia, is under threat of eviction. We are facing a lawsuit for a building that was abandoned and neglected, in which one of the floors was covered by a meter of garbage and garbage. In the face of this threat, our request is clear: that the owner, the real estate company Bojous S.L., withdraw the complaint.
We know many of you will be wondering “WHO IS BOJOUS S.L.?”
Today we publish the properties of this so-called “small owner”
Welcome to the MONOPOLY of BOJOUS S.L.! There are so many properties that we can’t hang all the posters on Indymedia, followed by the 9 most expensive properties.
IT DOESN’T END HERE, BOJOUS S.L. IT IS THE PROPERTY OF THE MASSIMO DUTTI OF PORTAL OF THE ANGEL, THE ANCIENT ZARA. A COMMERCIAL BUILDING ON THE STREET WITH THE MOST EXPENSIVE RENTALS IN ALL OF SPAIN. A rental price of 285 € per m2, a total of 445,455 € monthly. 8.jpg
