A group of anarcho-syndicalists and anarcho-communists in Los Angeles propose a meeting after the anti-war march on March 20 at 2:30 P.M. at the park at Franklin ave. and La Brea ave., very close to the location where the anti-war march ends. We propose to discuss the creation of an anarcho-communist federation in Southern California. We feel there is a desperate need for anarcho-communists and other like-minded anarchists to link up with one another in order to create a stronger movement that is capable of organizing direct actions, as well as providing an anarcho-communist critical analysis of capitalism that informs our involvement in popular movements for social justice. Once accomplished, we believe we will be better able to challenge capitalist and government power that creates war and injustice. We are inspired by the shut-down of the financial district of San Francisco on the day after the war in Iraq began. We are further motivated by the successes of anarcho-communist federations around the world.
Off of the sidewalks, into the streets!
In Solidarity,
L.A. Anarcho-Communist Collective
----------------------
Join the March 20th Anti-Capitalist Contingent
To Abolish War, We Must Abolish Capitalism!
War is not the problem. War is only a symptom of a larger problem, that
problem being our current economic and political system. We will never
have a world without war as long as we live in a system based on borders,
competition and the quest for profits without regard for human life.
Last year, we marched through city streets & rain, held weekly vigils, lit
candles, wrote letters, obeyed their laws, their rules. We fit perfectly
into the system’s preexisting routes for voicing our dissent and rage,
ones which did not threaten the status quo...
Nothings changed!
The administration was not moved. We were a million plus “focus group.”
And so...the occupation of Iraq continues…
On March 20th, retake activism in LA! Prove that our rage over this unjust
war and occupation will not be confined to permitted marches facilitated
by bureaucracies that stifle real efforts towards building another world.
Reach out to other activists in the movement, let them know that there is
an alternative to the state, capitalism and the wars these systems
perpetuate. Bring drums, literature, flags, banners, your hearts & voices.
Celebrate our movement! With each day, autonomy & freedom are drawing
closer…
When: March 20th, Global day of protest against the occupation of Iraq
Where: 12 noon - ANSWER rally in Los Angeles at the intersection of
Hollywood & Vine.
(For the contingent, meet up at the head of the march and/or look for
banners and black flags)
I'm certain there will be many new members* to link up to.
* Remember, the FBI pay their dues so don't worry about contributions.
Getting rid of capitalism will get rid of war.
After all, communist countries never start wars.
Except for China. And the USSR. And North Korea. And North Vietnam.
Well, now that I think about it, communist countries actually have started a lot of wars.
So let's get rid of capitalism and communism. And everything else to.
Let's just blow up the whole goddamn human race. That'll stop wars!
or the same one.
Tell me how did China, the USSR, North Korea and North Vietnam start any wars?
This is news. Lets see the links or references.
They started civil wars and internal revoutionary wars.
Kings go to war, and the peasants die.
The peasants just want to live. The kings wars don't matter when you just want to work/farm/rest.
People who stand up with the peasants against war, and encourage each other to say "no", they get killed by the kings.
In chess, the pawns are the first to die.
Eventually, the rook's technology is employed, the pure hearted knights die, bishops are killed, and even the queen may be sacrificed... but first, the pawns die.
And the king never dies. He's just captured.
I am the only 'Ann Archy' that has ever worked. Fools in black shirts with zero job skills aren't going to build or preserve anything. Anyone over the age of 15 who still thinks anarchy can work is a rascal.
Seek Christ, ye heathens, that ye may know thy selves better.

anarchists dont believe in nations, let alone militarism. no one said anything about authoritarian communism
The call for an anti-capitalist contingent was made by another group. There'll be all types marching in solidarity, alongside the anarcho-communists.
