If you call yourself an anarchist you owe it to those anarchists that died in the streets of Chicago, New York, Buenos Aires, Catalonia, Rojava, Chiapas, et al, to know what it is you are claiming to be.
This isn't some game to be taken lightly, it is a life and death struggle to free ourselves from the parasites that feast on our labor while allowing some of us barely enough crumbs to survive.
Those martyrs brought you the weekend, 8 hour days, health insurance, etc.
If you got a benefit at work, thank an anarchist.
Today I will introduce you to the Haymarket 8.
You can do the reading yourself here.
That is the mainstream interpretation of what happened.
The wonderful jury justice system that many of you love to laud as the greatest thing since sliced toast admitted it's mistake some years later by pardoning them, but not until after it snuffed out these lovers of freedom.
Remember that the next time you get to thinking that crapitalusts are your friends.
Have a perfectly peaceful day.
Keep working, stop paying. No war, but the class war!!
There is no way to know who really threw it. Propaganda of the deed was a very popular tactic at the time, it could have been another anarchist, the police, someone paid by factory owners, who knows. The 8 people above were selected because they were influential people in the anarchist movement not because of any evidence so it's safer to say who it wasn't - the 8 who were found guilty. I'm sure in the act of framing them, any evidence available was destroyed.
Welcome to 'murican justice, it is just them.
Why people buy into the lies, I don't know.
Most are anarchist, they can not expect anything good. Thank you for expressing an excellent example.
Not quite an anarchist, I'm more of a nomad in this 4th turning.
Rule by force is the disease, who and how are symptoms.
I am definitely an anarchist I apologized to my children for registering their births. I'm trying to get an audience with the Queen to give her my birth certificate back I don't want any part of crapitalism. Have you heard of the Ubuntu movement?
Yes, and the venus project.
Have you heard of @marcstevens, he can save you a trip to Buckingham.
I hadn't but I have now :)
If you get into the skype chat don't use my name, their cognitive dissonance is strong.
I don't do chat rooms, Steemit is my only waste of time now Ive kicked facebook into touch. :)
The role playing in the chat is crucial if you expect to spit it out in court.
If you dont have time turn your kids on to him?
The faster the word gets out that govt is a fraud the better, imo.
I have followed Marc his stuff looks interesting. My kids are grown up now & are wrapped up in their own goals for life. It wouldn't be good for them at the moment to follow me. If I go full Ubuntu & it takes off then it will be time but it's an ideal that's still in its infancy so I'm not going to rush them yet.
So who else firmly believes the bomb was thrown by a strike breaker?

Not a lot we can do, just ask our friends to reject rule by force.
Otherwise get your survival gear together, and hope for the best.
Unless you are ready to learn to attentat,...
