ENGLISH (translation):

“Call to sabotage fishing.

The murder of fishes, commonly called “fishing”, is the murder activity more normalised by the human. So normalised in fact that it isn’t a standard point of attack by the antispeciesist movement. Those animals are chased, trapped and with the pleasure of any serial killer, tortured until death asphyxiating and suffering for a long time.

Usually fishes are some of the less cared for animals and people give very little value to their life and existence. We don’t believe it is needed to explain in detail the amount of suffering fishes are forced into, or why we should respect their existence, and instead we just want to call to action.

We believe in direct action for animal liberation, both violent and non violent, and inspired by the hunt sabotage and its incredible efficacy, we have decided to call all antispeciesists around the world to sabotage fishing and to create a front of resistance where there is none yet, so that we can keep pushing the fight against the abuse of animals in every possible angle.

We call for:

– the liberation of fish that have been trapped (and all other sea life)
– to try and stop all fishing acts by diverse tactics
– to try and make fishing more difficult if stopping it is impossible
– to attack or scare fisher people
– to cause as much economical damage to fishing equipment.
– to share the message against fishing.

The call to action is simply to try and stop the murder and if they actually manage to do it, for it to not be as easy as it currently is. Slowly with this we create a reality where subjugating animals is dangerous for all the animal murderers.

We don’t limit ourselves to fishing sabotage, but we believe fishing should be a target equally as important as any other animal abuse. The chances of sabotage are as vast as our imagination and will is and it would be beautiful to read about actions.

Go fishing saboteurs! “

SPANISH (original):

“Propuesta para saboteadorxs de la pesca

El asesinato de peces, encubiertamente llamado “pesca”, es la actividad de asesinato más normalizada practicada por humanos promedio. Tan normalizada, que no es parte de un punto de ataque por parte del movimiento. Estos animales son acechados, atrapados y con la saña de cualquier asesino en serie, torturados hasta la muerte en una asfixia que será de una larga agonía.

Usualmente lxs peces son de lxs animales que menos consideración se tiene de su vida y existencia. No consideramos necesario explicar en este ámbito con detalle el sometimiento al que son sometidxs lxs peces, o porque deberíamos respetar sus existencias, sino intentamos dar un panorama general de nuestra intención.

Creemos en una lucha por la liberación animal de acción directa tanto violenta como no violenta, e Inspiradxs en el saboteo de la caza y la sorprendente eficacia que posee esta práctica, decidimos convocar a antiespecistas de todo el mundo a sumarse al saboteo de la pesca y así generar un frente de resistencia donde no lo hay, y de esta forma seguir avanzando en la lucha contra sometimientos de animales, desde todos lados posibles:

Hacemos un llamado a:

  • tratar de salvar o liberar los peces atrapados y la vida marina en general
  • tratar de detener actos de pesca mediante diversas tácticas
  • entorpecerla la pesca de no ser posible detenerla
  • atacar o atemorizar a los pescadores
  • generarles el mayor daño posible a sus objetos de asesinato y pertenencias
  • difundir el mensaje en contra de la pesca

El llamado es básicamente evitar de que asesinen y si lo hacen que no les sea tan fácil como lo es, a su vez creando paso a paso un frente que construya una realidad en la que someter animales sea peligroso para lxs asesinxs de animales.

No pretendemos limitarnos a atacar solamente el asesinato de peces, sino que la pesca forme parte de los tantos objetivos que tenemos contra el sometimiento de animales. las posibilidades de sabotaje son tan amplias como nuestra voluntad y creatividad, seria hermoso enterarnos e inspirarnos con todo tipo de ideas llevadas a la práctica.

Adelante saboteadorxs de la pesca!”

HOW TO GO COMPLETELY OFF GRID // SHUT THE WATER MAINS!

Be warned: this is a destructive procedure and the repairs are costly, plus if timed wrongly could upset a lot of people. This is not advice, it is a satirical writing, and you should never do it to any slaughterhouse owning scumbag.

Sooo…. We’ve all been there: you want to live your best off grid life, and you tell the water company to stop supplying water (cos you already harvest enough rainwater and drink from puddles) but the water company does not care and keeps turning the water back on and charging you for the ‘service’. They say things like “but how will you flush toilets without water?” And “how are you going to ensure proper sanitation in your factory?”.

There is a solution to all your problems that will allow you to live off grid!

What you need:
-water mains manhole
-a large screwdriver to open the metal cover
-a stopcock key
-quick concrete, water and a bucket.

Water mains supply has a switch in front of every property. This switches (also called stopcocks) are usually underground, under a metal cover, normally in front of each house or building. When you open that metal cover you should be able to see a metered counter (This tells the water company how much you’re using) and the stopcock, which will be either metal or plastic and is usually somewhat rectangular. You will need to turn off the valve by making it perpendicular to the water pipe it sits on top of. If your hand won’t suffice, there are such things as ” water mains shut off tools” or “stopcock keys” which you should find at hardware stores.

Once you’re shut off the valve, to ensure the water supplier doesn’t just turn the water back on, you mix quick concrete and water in a bucket and pour it over the whole thing, filling up the hole under the metal cover. How much concrete you will need will depend on your manhole, so you’ll need to check prior!

Walk away after that. You have achieved the water off grid award. Congratulations!

Note that you’re not allowed to fuck with water main switches as they are property of the water company. So only fuck with YOUR OWN stopcocks, never somebody elses, specially if they are a slaughterhouse that could no longer clean the blood and guts off of the floor or a hotel hosting a far right conference that would be unable to flush the toilets. Do not do that. It is expensive, it takes time to repair and it would not be legal!

EIGHT MACHINES BELONGING TO BRENT SCARBOROUGH SET ALIGHT.

14th March, Henry County USA

“On the early morning of March 14th, we torched eight pieces of heavy construction machinery belonging to the Brent Scarbrough company (the contractor that is presently clearcutting the Weelaunee forest) at a site on Jonesboro Road in Henry County, Georgia. We hope everyone on their morning commute enjoyed the show. Despite the blaze being visible from a major road, what appears to be one of the most quantitatively effective attacks on the company’s equipment so far remains unreported in the media at the time of submission. This follows a previously observed pattern in which the news focuses only on reporting attacks that occur inside the perimeter. However, it appears that some of Brent Scarbrough’s largest sites, with the greatest amount of equipment, can be found by venturing further outside the city. It’s easy to find clues that construction sites are nearby, like Flock cameras, orange cones, and “road work” signs. When passing by a site, look for the arms of excavators bearing large and recognizable “Brent.us” logos. We’re getting closer every day. Let’s bankrupt them!”

THE ALF LIBERATES 73 PULLETS.

4th April, Victoria, Australia

Received anonymously via email:

“Here we are again, another so-called free range egg farm entered by the A.L.F, taking with us 73 pullets. These little babies will no longer serve humans for profit. Instead, they will find the gentle side to human hands, surrounded by compassion and love.

Until every cage is empty, keep liberating.

The A.L.F acknowledges the First Nations people of the land this action took place, the damage colonisation does to the land, and the continued fight for liberation of First Nations people. We stand with Palestine in their fight against the Zionist state of Israel. From the river to the sea.

None are free until all are free.”

UNKNOWN PEOPLE RELEASE TWENTY DEER FROM A GAME FARM

1st April, Gleiszellen Germany.

According to local media, unknown people cut a hole in the fence holding deer in a game farm. Twenty deer broke free, most of them fallow deer but also some roe deer. The farmer, who raises the deer to shoot them, says that the damages amounted to 400 EUR. The police confirmed they had no suspects.

MOUNTED PATROL POLICE HORSE FINDS TEMPORARY FREEDOM.

20th March, Atlanta USA.

via Scenes from the Atlanta Forest.

“Last month, a small team temporarily released a mounted patrol horse from the Atlanta Police Foundation/Atlanta Police Department stable. It was quick and easy to complete using simple ingredients: carrots, apples, food, and wire fence cutters. During this action and subsequent coverage, we learned that APD falsely claimed 24-hour surveillance and patrols around its facilities. Furthermore, APD insists on linking every anti-police action to their ill-conceived cop city project, instead of recognizing that some of us just want to see them shamed because they are an army of occupying clowns. We encourage readers in Atlanta and elsewhere to identify where police resources are concentrated in their own communities and to combat them in similar experimental ways after observation of surveillance flaws. Also, we recommend that you look into the history of Atlanta Mounted Patrol and other animals used as police weapons.”

NEO-NAZI GYM BURNS TO THE GROUND.

25th March, Germany.

Via Indymedia.

[On the night of 25-26 March, a building went up in flames in the east of Halle-sur-Saale, a town about twenty kilometres from Leipzig in the region of Saxony-Anhalt. Only this grey suburban building was no ordinary building: it housed a martial arts gym called “Gladiator Fight Academy”, which the local neo-Nazis were about to open next April. All the equipment in the hall went up in flames, with damage estimated by the police at 250,000 euros. Below is the translation from the Indymedia report].

“In Halle, attempts are repeatedly being made to establish or strengthen a right-wing extremist scene. This is also the case with the planned opening of the “Gladiator Fight Academy” martial arts centre.

But Halle is once again showing its best side and leaving no room for the structural training of militant fascists.

On Tuesday morning (26.03.24), the warehouse where the fascists wanted to make themselves comfortable went up in flames. Initial estimates put the damage at a quarter of a million euros.

Thank you Halle.”

THE ALF LIBERATES 28 HENS.

28th March, Victoria, Australia



Received anonymously via email:

“In the dead of the night, the A.L.F entered a so-called free range egg farm and liberated 28 lives. These beautiful girls will now spend the rest of their lives in loving homes, no longer commodified to feed the machine.

Until every cage, big and small is empty.

We would like to acknowledge that these hens were liberated from a business operating on stolen land. We acknowledge the First Nations people of so-called Australia and acknowledge the impact colonisation has had and continues to have on land and water. We stand and take action in solidarity with First Nations people in their fight for liberation. We stand and take action in solidarity with Palestine, Sudan, the Congo and all other places facing oppression and genocide. Solidarity always.”
