A society, which you find around yourself when you become a kind of conscious individual, should damage you by a great multitude of disgusting injustices which are inherent in its very structure. It appears in everything: social institutions, interpersonal mutual relations, imposed pseudo-values and even in patterns of thinking and feeling. All these yawning sores are poisoning every day of our existence. It seems this hidden bitterness and disappointment are the main reasons why an individual comes to an anarchist belief. The anarchist worldview is an attempt to abolish all the constructs which are built in a human world but are hostile to a very human nature. To abolish – and to create on the ruins a new society of freedom. The anarchist movement is a community of people who aim their thoughts and actions on realization of an idea of liberation.
As it has turned out, the last decades’ anarchist movement, despite all declarations, seems to abandon its main goal. Decadence, cynicism, passivity, doom and squabbles have been enthroned in our ranks. But the fresh wind has suddenly blown. Hearts that, disobedient to the mainstream, have refused to accept the despair of the modern world and of that “movement” which was supposed to change it. And that was the moment when there was born a mixed current which is marked as an insurrectionary anarchism.
In Russia, the insurrectionary anarchist tendency for the first time has declared itself a few years ago. An understanding of the hopelessness of previous anarchist tactics in social movements, the murders of our comrades by fascists with the connivance of the state, and, of course, the fires of the December uprising in Greece – that was the coincidence of circumstances that has enlightened the path of struggle which we confidently follow today.
We want to underline that for all imperfection of tactics (as though there are perfect tactics!) and all the mistakes that unavoidable on our way, an insurrectionary current has a great meaning for modern anarchism. This sense is not in “violence” about which the police, media and toy “revolutionaries” preach. This sense is in the rupture with the stinking ruling order. In the fighting enthusiasm of immediate revolution, when attack on the system and creating of the new are merging in the one whirlwind. No more do we want to put off our struggle and life. We live and fight today. And this is the only approach which makes a chance for victory. The breath of fresh air for the great idea which seemed was ready to fade away – that is the very meaning and merit of insurrectionary anarchism.
And it is completely not casual; world powers have put anarchists from “Conspiracy of Cells of Fire” (CCF) in the same row with Islamites in lists of terrorists. Terrorism is a favorite bugbear of all bloody-dollar dictators. It is most likely that soon we will see anarchists as “public enemy number one”, because unlike religious fanatics, we have dared to challenge the root of present order – private property and social hierarchy.
Actions of the Conspiracy of Cells of Fire, as well as of many other comrades from Greece and worldwide, have always inspirited us and fulfilled us with the feeling of unity and hope for victory. So in spite of certain ideological differences (we don’t share the “nihilism” of CCF and, being insurrectionary anarcho-communists, we aspire to rise a people to rebellion) we express our solidarity with the imprisoned comrades and send them our warm revolutionary greetings. Freedom for all immediately!
We will win!
Long live anarchy!
