THe global holocaust is a continuous everyday rape of life.
Everyday animals are eviscerated, women are
raped, children molested and murdered, species pushed
to extinction. The earth our home, our life, the
mother of all life is ravaged. A stand must be taken
now for the crisis is upon us, war must be declared,
our culture and its corrupt supporters must fall..



We are a loose coalition of anarchists communist
nilelist we are for the destruction of civilisation
and for the defence of wildness. We exist to help
strengthen the strictly anti-authoritarian anarchist
movement and work with all other like-minded
organizations. We feel that society in general is at a
crucial point where the overall disgust for daily life
is reaching a new high point everyday. It would seem
that anti-authoritarian would be all the more
appealing to larger majorities, so the widening of our
reach as anarchists requires more efforts to spread
information and more ways to keep up on current
debates as well as information regarding direct
actions. The constant repression that the systems we
oppose requires the suppression of our voices and
actions, this is primarily carried out by a highly
manipulative media, an all encompassing dependency on
the system, and the jailing of our more active
participants. This creates an even stronger obligation
on our part to spread the information to battle with
the over-arching mega-machine and help hasten the
death of civilisation for a world living in harmony of
all living things. We believe that through the
invention and use of agriculture, certain people were
able to force their lifestyles upon the rest of the
world. What was being pushed is civilisation, the
state of society that forces all to become
domesticated and thus mediated from the natural world.
It created the illusion of power and relies on it, in
this lies it's oppressive nature and ability to
subjugate the planet to it's wants and needs. While
being sold as a greater livelihood to being a
necessity, it has, in reality, taken our autonomy,
sold us commodities as 'freedoms', taken our ability
to exist and communicate freely, replaced our
leisurely lives with work as drones, 'expendable
labour' pools for those in power to rob at will. It
has replaced our natural world with a noisy, concrete,
steel and glass hell based on monotony, where any
non-corporate attempt to decorate is a crime.

This civilisation has been a draining leech on the
Earth. It has poisoned its vital resources, it has
destroyed forests, it bulldozes the homes of the many
species that share this world (and has pushed many
into extinction). It forces the remaining into
human-made, concrete prisons where they remain until
slaughtered. It has created words and ideologies for
humans to try to justify their massacres in the name
of 'superiority' (which has also been responsible for
racism, sexism, and all the other social-isms). The
only time the Earth's condition is considered is when
its resource value to humans is affected. We are not
an organization. Organizations are a mirror of the
hierarchical system we oppose. They hinder free flow
of information and thought and can be easily
manipulated into an elite power group. We feel that
power is the basis of civilization, and thus refute
any model in which it is made possible. All are
important and all should be heard. No one has the
right to rule you, and no one can tell you what to do.
So we refrain from this style of order.

There are no members, only participants. Everyone is
free to do as they please and contribute where they
please. Interaction and debate is vital. We support
anarchist and non-anarchist prisoners alike. Prisons
are one of the primary forms of pure power of the
state. It exists to scare the population in line and
sooth the 'upstanding' citizens into believing that
the state has their interests in mind. It puts forth
the image of justice being done and the 'bad seeds'
being rehabilitated. This is nothing but a lie. It
does not mean justice, only fear. One of the crimes
responsible for the high incarceration rate are those
dealing with 'illegal substances.' Something which
high positioned parts of the government have been
known to push on it's population as a means of escape
for those who bare the greatest blunt of the social
order.

The entire 'justice' system is corrupt, from the
police to the highest judges. It has no right to say
who and who is not guilty of crimes, since the state
itself is the worst criminal in existence. It will
kill nations for cheap fuel, and will convict a woman
for trying to protect herself from an abusive (and in
many cases life threatening) partner, or even a person
who can't afford to pay for that same fuel to get to
their minimum wage job and will thus be forced to
steal it. The very existence of this system leaves an
uneven slate for all to exist on. Most crimes
committed are done to try to keep up with the
constantly rising and unrealistic 'quality of life.'
It is guilty and therefore has no right to claim it's
own product as guilty. We reject the entire system,
and will not be silent on the plight of those pushed
into the dungeons of civilization, especially when
their own crime is speaking and acting against the
state's injustices. We see that civilization has yet
to spare an inch on this Earth from its blood-soaked,
greedy hands. We see that the only way to regain our
livelihood, sanity, environment, and everything else
that has been taken, will require the complete
destruction of civilization and its products. Only
through this can we truly leave our consumerist,
isolated mindsets and become feral and liberated. We
seek an end to all domestication and a return to what
remains of the natural world. We are for the abolition
of all large scale agricultural, technological, and
industrial existence, as they can only exist in the
context of accumulation based systems. We feel that
the human population is a vital issue. The Earth
cannot sustain this high of a population. We believe
that through civil collapse, into a more community and
harmonious existence that the human population will
realize it's capacities and adjust itself accordingly.


We understand that many will feel that what we are
asking for is unrealistic and utopian. However, we
feel that civilization has proven that it cannot be
trusted. As long as power exists, injustice and all of
its products exist. The state apparatus acts as a
cancer cell and grows for the sake of growth. This
mentality is mirrored in all of its products and is
pushing the whole planet and all its inhabitants
closer and closer to extinction. It has proven that
the worst thing that can happen is that the state will
continue to exist. It plays itself off as being the
best-case scenario, and downplays the accidents that
are bound to happen while carrying out its
necessities, many of which can be fatal. We seek the
abolition of power and all of its physical forms,
because that is the only way the Earth and all its
inhabitants may heal themselves and carry on. We exist
as hollow, diseased shells of our past lives. We have
been deceived and cheated out of our birthrights to
lives of happiness and freedom. The only possibility
of regaining all of this is to destroy that which
oppresses us all.
