Revolutionary Anti-Capitalist Convergence Against the War


11am September 24

​

​

The fires of war rage in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, and across the globe. The United States empire continues to murder hundreds of thousands of people the world over, establishing regimes and destroying peoples to satisfy a never-ending lust for wealth, resources, and global power. The Empire now has its sights set on Iran.

Inside the heart of the empire, the rich are slashing workers’ real wages, benefits, pensions, and social services. Here in San Francisco they are reaping the benefits of burdening the working class by raising fares and cutting services on MUNI public transportation. They too are ripping communities apart through greedy redevelopment schemes and gentrification. Down on the border, racist, white nationalists, the Minutemen and their politician allies are mobilizing forces using the social atmosphere of xenophobia that was whipped up by 9/11 and the Iraq war to justify their vigilante actions and racist legislation.

On Sep. 24, A.N.S.W.E.R., UFPJ, and others are calling for mass protests against the war, which will remain largely routine and symbolic. Coincidently Sep. 24 is when the major capitalist financial institutions, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, are meeting in Washington, D.C. to make plans for further corporate and imperial control.

Anarchist Action is calling for a revolutionary Anti-Capitalist Convergence Against the War that same day - take the streets to resist the war and the system behind it! As long as there is capitalism - and the state to support it - this perpetual state of war, racism, sexism, and xenophobia will continue.

Anarchists are involved in building a mass revolutionary movement and are using direct action to resist capitalism, war, the state, and all forms of social oppression (such as racism, patriarchy, heterosexism, etc.). The mainstream anti-war movement has been stuck in routine, boring, and reformist models that have not provided a serious threat to the war and, more importantly, the system behind it. Symbolic marches and petitioning legislators have not proven effective in stopping the war. Unlike the established Left, we do not seek to control or lead protesters or the movement. Instead, we seek to provide a directly democratic space where people can use a diversity of tactics in autonomous resistance and be actively engaged in the fight for freedom, liberation, and social revolution.

Converge on 16th and Mission Plaza, 11am, September 24 to oppose the state of perpetual war and the system behind it!

laughable man!

 

as is your life, I'm sure.

 

Well, while any convergence against the illegal, imperialist war in the Middle East sounds good to me, I have to question the motive behind many of these so-called "anti-capitalist/anarchist" groups, many of which have long been infiltrated by government operatives and agent provocateurs -- as is the case with all radical and extremist groups on both the Left and Right. Many of these groups have also been FUNDED by the government and other elite-owned, tax-exempt foundations like Ford, Carnegie and Rockefeller. You have to ask yourself why.

I hate war protests that are always attached to some other agenda.

Seriously, these anarchist groups are full of shit. They only play into the hands of the people they supposedly oppose, which is the irony of it all. I found it rather amusing how your little organization referred to the Minutemen as "racist", yet said nothing about the corrupt government that is intentionally using illegal immigration to destroy national sovereignty on behalf of "Free Trade", and for the deliberate destruction of the US economy, to usher in their ever-increasing, centralized, totalitarian global power structure.

 

yay for pressed rat.
now forget that we ever met.

 

LMAO!

With the majority of these people, is it about image or an actual cause? Do half of these people even have a clue as to what they're protesting about? Is it the same lame-brained shit aimed at attracting the most gullible of people?

Gee... if I wore all black and carried around a sign baring the Anarchist logo, I too could be an anarchist. How cool.

 

boom, boom , boom, boom, boom what's that I hear? could be drums.....

 

Well Pressed Rat, I respectfully and wholeheartedly disagree with you. As someone who's taken part in this movement myself, I can assure you that we are not funded by the government, nor has our movement been infiltrated. The only things that get infiltrated are actual demonstrations...not the movements themselves, and even at protests the infiltrators are usually called out anyway. The security culture is so tight that infiltration is virtually impossible. In fact there's a memo written by the Portland police that says just that. Please look into this movement first before casting judgement on it. You, who 99% of the time make perfect sense, sound like a major ignoramous on this subject.

 

Yeh man, everything is funded by the government . Even me! Eat your own hypocritical relay and stop reading everything indy websites shove down your throat.

 

Statistic, I don't think Indy websites shove ANYTHING down ANYBODY'S throats. It's an independent, open-publishing network that allows anyone to publish, including your annoying self.

I am so sick and tired of people who have no clue what they are talking about speaking as though they do.

 

ok pick apart if you must. But all I see him relay is, whatever is 180 of mainstream media. Why does everyones opinions have to be based on what journalists shat down upon you, is all it comes down to.

"I am so sick and tired of people who have no clue what they are talking about speaking as though they do."


Ha, that's how everyone speaks.
But really, I've looked into it as well, many movements have not only been infiltrated but created by the opposing force. Would you think Rat is right about everything but this one subject? Perhaps what you're talking about in particular hasn't been corrupted NWO style, but many, most, big politcal movements are.
Static its funny youre quick to shoot down this idea, but then you have a sig that says slavery inc, usa. looks like you jumped on the fuck america bandwaggon to be cool. Oh but if members of the government actually do pull this kind of shit its just a conspiracy theory, right?

 

Pure ignorance. Little do you know of me.

 

lol at gilligan again. humorous in a let's pat the boy on the head and send him on his way kind of way. completely and utterly clueless. Just another poser.

 

Gilligan, that would include me

The utterly clueless part.

My first thought on poser was 'urinal cake' because they take the piss and make it smell better but in the end it's still piss. posing as one means not doing such a good job of it. An anology between the pundits you so readily reflect and practical objects. So, you're not a urinal cake but you're not O'Reilly either.

 

awaiting a response from pressed rat...

as for movements being CREATED by the opposing force...I've heard it before, and I highly doubt it. I don't think they would want to jeopardize the movement taking on its own force (which is certainly what's been happening in the U.S. since '99) and spiraling out of control from the powers that "created it" in the first place. No way. It wouldn't make sense because Revolutionary movements are the last thing any elite social structure wants.

 

Ever heard of CONTROLLED OPPOSITION?

You say that revolutionary movements are the last thing the elite power structure wants, yet the Elite funded Communism. I thought Communism goes against capitalism, and the Elite are capitalists (or so we are told)? They funded Hitler and the Nazis, too -- not that I am saying Nazism is revolutionary. Neither is Communism.

It seems that these "anarchist" groups have done a lot help further the police state in America, in the name of so-called "domestic terrorism".

I have heard you speak highly of the '99 Seattle riots, as if these riots were the product of your everyday, peace-loving anti-capitalists. If anything, these riots only served to discredit your movement. But the fact is - and anyone who has adequately read about this knows - the '99 riots were started by agent provocateurs, HIRED by the government to stir up trouble. This all falls under the problem-reaction-solution scenario, where the government creates the problem, which triggers the reaction, only for the government to put forward their pre-conceived "solution." In this case their "solution" was the furthering of the totalitarian police state, equipt with police dressed in riot gear and black ski masks, brandishing semi-automatic weapons on every street corner.

Just go to Google and enter "Seattle riots, agent provocateurs".

So, while the so-called "anarchist" movement might pose some very minute threat to the system, it seems to be more of a useful tool for the feds than anything else.

Ahhh I see. Agents provocateurs? Very clever. Just like you, you mean? Spreading obvious bullshit in an attempt to discredit people who know The Truth about the illuminati?

 

Heehee....this made me laugh. A lot.
