Yesterday, on Saturday, December 10, 2011 in many cities of Eastern Europe, Urals, Siberia and the Far East  was a lot of protest actions against the outcome of a democratic farce. Among the huge number of protesters who took part in actions that were a members of the League of the Individualist Anarchism, published in an area of ​​freedom of speech or antielectoral agitation, and members of simpatizant organizations and movements, such as the Association of the Anarchist Movements, near Moscow group of anarchists, and many others Anarchists, as consisting of different organizations, movements, groups, and do not belong to them.

Of course, the outcome of ongoing protest campaign can not fully do the anarchists in any case - as in the whole campaign is not directed against the dictatorship of the state as such, but only on its liberalization. However, the ability to protect against government abuse the freedom of speech and privacy is important enough, and the number of people and forces involved in the protest campaign - large enough to hope for positive results. In addition, the anarchist calls almost everywhere were accepted and contributed to educate and inform people about the existence of libertarian groups and their ideas.

08.12.2011: Protests against results of the elections

At a time when many people take to the streets to protest against the election results to the State Parliament, against the crooks and thieves in government, many of our comrades are willing to support these initiatives. Turning to his colleagues in the League and all the sympathetic fellow I want to encourage all to go out and educate on the picket lines and meetings 10th (tomorrow) and the 17th of December, as well as at any other time in your area will settle any such public event. Your vote is very important for us all!

Important, of course, not how silly trash thrown in electoral ballot, but as a call to people to live, quiet, thorough discussion, and a leaflet with transporant anti-electoral appeal, and as a business opportunity counter-economics. We need to explain to people that "crooks and thieves" is not only and not a particular party, as all governments and all politicians because of their professional specifics that any state robbing and deceiving its citizens. Need to encourage all to become loose now engaged in counter-economic activity and the construction of counter-institutions. Perhaps now is not the time for revolutions, but we can be free right now, arranging and interacting in solving their everyday problems of counter-economic means.

Perhaps not all the participants of protest actions come to the area with the anarchist positions. We do not get lost in the crowd, because all the protesters seek greater freedom and greater volunteerism, everyone wants to remove the dictatorship, and the anarchists among them - just a little more consistent in this matter. All on antielectoral assembly, education, and coordination - that is our main task for today!

Smash the crooks and thieves' state! Dismiss all politicians and no any re-elections!
