A-Infos (en) Initiative of Thessaloniki (Anarchist Federation): FOR A DOUBLE COURSE (gr) [machine translation]

Gods, princes, kings -- with shots words we laugh -- of the land the slaves and the ragas 
-- their monks will be saved ... ---- Despite the governmental fanfare to quit the 
memorandum, the structural capitalist crisis that has erupted globally since 2007 has not 
yet eroded and we have been experiencing its effects in Greece for the last 8 years. Of 
course these results are being borne by the exploited and the oppressed, not the ruling 
class and the sovereignty. ---- The attack on the working class was intensified by the law 
passed in December 2017 by the SYRIZA / ANEL government, meeting a large percentage of the 
demands of BSE and the bourgeoisie. The collective redundancies were legitimized as well 
as the lock out of the bosses. Hand-to-hand with government policy goes and the judiciary 
from the lowest to the highest. Indicatively, we refer to court rulings on the 
co-existence of worker-victims in industrial accidents, dozens (as hundreds) of boss 
decisions in cases of abusive dismissals, and last year's decision of Supreme Court, which 
effectively abolished the right of unpaid workers to retire. The abolition of Sunday's 
holiday continues at a fast pace,

The continued unprecedented attack continues with privatizations in water, energy and 
various services of general interest, as well as cuts in social benefits, pensions and 
allowances. This is the reality that fills the phenomena of social cannibalism and 
individualism.

As we have seen in other times in history, when capitalism fails to overcome its crises, 
it employs its final weapon: the war. The sirens of the war are louder and stronger both 
in our wider neighborhood (in the eastern Mediterranean) and in the Aegean. The gradual 
sharpening of transnational antagonisms can only mean, as always, the working class 
slavery of company profits and the geopolitical gains of each imperialist block. Against 
this disastrous prospect, we have to make it clear that the only war we will be involved 
in will be for social and class liberation. We will not be killed for oil, for the 
interests of the arms industries and the states.

We honor the memory of the 1886 assassinated anarchist workers in Chicago and the 
insurgent workers of Thessaloniki in 1936 and we stand against the barbarity of state and 
capital. We do not forget the comrades who fought and fell into the struggle, but at the 
same time we organize our class and social self-defense and counter-attack from the base, 
unpretentious and unforgiving. We are fighting for the social revolution that will sweep 
the world of injustice, exploitation and oppression and create the new world of communal, 
solidarity, dignity, freedom and unimpeded development of free people.

NO WAR BETWEEN THE WAYS

NO PEACE BETWEEN TAXES

WE DO NOT WANT FOR THE INTERESTS OF OUR AFFECTS

ORGANIZATION AND RACE FOR SOCIAL RESPONSE, FREEDOM COMMEMORATION, ANARCHY
