Voting won’t fix this mess 18:56 Tue 10 May by MACG 0 comments

We don’t support running in elections or campaigning for them, but some Socialists are wasting their resources doing just that. Because none of them are in any danger of being elected this time around, the MACG considers that it’s possible to give them a principled vote (though it would be different if any might win – they would have to pass the test above). Such a vote is symbolic: you’re putting up your hand for Socialism and against capitalism. It’s a small gesture which you can make without compromising yourself. But we still think it was a mistake for honest Socialists to run.

A National Myth 20:08 Sun 25 Apr by Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group 0 comments

The myth of Australia’s unique military has been deployed to boost support for Australian participation in all subsequent imperialist wars. The less justification there is for the war, the more the propaganda focuses on the supposed virtues of the troops rather than the justice of the cause. While the virtues of the Anzacs were part of the propaganda for World War II, they were more prominent during the Korean and Vietnam Wars and have become the dominant theme in reporting and discussion of Australia’s participation in the imperialist wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Formation of Anarchist Communists Meanjin 19:10 Wed 06 Jan by Anarchist Communists Meanjin 0 comments

The struggle for a new world has been a long one and has been contributed to by countless individuals and organisations in that time. While the path often seems long and sometimes hopeless we believe that a new world is not just possible, but necessary for our survival. We hope that with this new organisation we like so many before us can play a part in making this vision become reality.

Students Lead the Militancy! 14:25 Thu 19 Nov by Written by Laya 0 comments

These universities are not alone. In fact, this struggle for our lives, for our freedom to dictate our destiny, is the struggle of every student, in every institution across the archipelago! All schools, colleges, and universities have their own versions of our very native concept of bayanihan, that entails a camaraderie and solidarity where no one will be left behind. It is in our values and in our history that we can learn what it takes to take our liberty now.

An Open Letter to Anti-fascists in the USA 17:42 Tue 15 Sep by Filipino and Filipinx autonomists 0 comments

We ask that you resist and protest the return of Joseph Scott Pemberton to the United States. Do not allow Pemberton to forget the vile crime he committed. You must prevent Pemberton from committing harm again. This can include petitioning Pemberton's prospective universities and employers to not accept him on account of his violent past.

Κανένας πόλεμος στ&#... 19:39 Sun 13 Sep by MACG 0 comments

Ως αναρχικοί, υποστηρίζουμε την εργατική επανάσταση σε όλο τον κόσμο και αναλαμβάνουμε ως πρωταρχικό καθήκον μας την καταπολέμηση των καπιταλιστών όπου ζούμε. Εδώ στην Αυστραλία, πρέπει να πολεμήσουμε ενάντια στη στρατιωτική συμμαχία της Αυστραλιανής Κυβέρνησης με τις ΗΠΑ, συμπεριλαμβανομένης της Συνθήκης ANZUS, της ομάδας πληροφοριών 5 Eyes και της βάσης κατασκοπείας στο Pine Gap. Και πρέπει να αγωνιστούμε για να οικοδομήσουμε ένα εργατικό κίνημα που μπορεί να συνδεθεί με την εργατική τάξη σε ολόκληρη την περιοχή για να κάνει επανάσταση ενάντια τόσο στους καπιταλιστές όσο και στο κινεζικό λεγόμενο «Κομμουνιστικό» Κόμμα. Δεν υπάρχει άλλος τρόπος.

Endless war 15:39 Sat 25 Apr by Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group 0 comments

The US-dominated world order can only be maintained by endless war. Australia, a junior partner, has signed up to this to maintain its domination of the South Pacific and Timor L’Este. The situation would not be improved by allying with China or any other would-be hegemon, because that wouldn’t change the system. The working class needs to unite internationally and abolish capitalism. Only this can build the basis for a world of liberty, equality and solidarity, where war is no more and the nation state has been abolished. We can have a new world of libertarian communism

Don’t mention the emergency 06:40 Fri 17 May by Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group 0 comments

On 18 May, enrolled voters in Australia will decide which members of the capitalist class will represent us in Parliament and crush us in government for the next three years. This election occurs at a time when the world has been informed that it has, at most, until 2030 to take effective action to stop and begin reversing climate change, or risk crossing tipping points into runaway temperature rises that would kill billions and endanger industrial civilisation. So you’d think the major players would be presenting plans to fix it. But no, this is Australian capitalist democracy and we get something different.

Imperialism means endless war 22:05 Thu 25 Apr by Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group 0 comments

There will be no peace while imperialism dominates the globe. Imperialism, though, is not a policy but the set of international relationships under global capitalism. Powerful countries compete with each other for influence and markets and seek to impose a world order in their favour. To end imperialism and its endless wars, we need to end capitalism.

Invasion Day 2019 18:13 Sat 26 Jan by Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group 0 comments

So, this year and every year, the MACG joins the call to abolish Australia Day. Our vision is of a stateless communist society, a Workers’ Commonwealth worldwide and operating on the basis of consistent federalism. Here, in the land that is currently called Australia, the Workers’ Commonwealth will be the vehicle through which non-indigenous people work with, and learn from, indigenous people how to live sustainably in the land, as they did so successfully for over 60,000 years before the First Fleet brought British colonialism to these shores.

Australia: State of the union movement Jan 27 by MACG 3 comments

The union movement must be rebuilt and as soon as possible. It will only be harder the more the movement declines. Rebuilding can only be done through a rank and file insurgency. There may be times and places where it is appropriate to organise new unions (for example in entirely unorganised parts of the workforce, or where the existing union is wholly on the side of the bosses and cannot be recaptured by its members). Most workers, though, will not break with the officials until they are already mobilised and a practical decision is in front of them, so the insurgency must operate largely within existing unions.

Ο Francesco Fantin Jul 27 by Tommy Lawson* 0 comments

Ο Francesco Fantin και ο ιταλικός αναρχισμός στην Αυστραλία --- Οι τελευταίες μέρες του Fantin ήταν τραγικές, καθώς ήταν εγκλωβισμένος σε ένα στρατόπεδο με εκείνους τις πολιτικές απόψεις των οποίων είχε περάσει όλη του τη ζωή πολεμώντας. Στο ημερολόγιό του στο στρατόπεδο, ο Francesco κρατούσε σημειώσεις και έγραφε ποιήματα. Να ένα τραγικό, θρηνητικό παράδειγμα: «Όνειρα; Η πικρή πραγματικότητα του να βρίσκομαι πάντα εδώ ανάμεσα σε αυτή τη μολυσμένη πολεμοχαρή μάζα. Και ανάμεσα σε ελάχιστους με δίκαιες συνειδήσεις, αυτά τα τελευταία είκοσι χρόνια, σε αυτούς τους καιρούς δικτατόρων και δικτατοριών, το ανθρώπινο είδος γεμάτο τέτοιου είδος πυρετούς μοιάζει τρελό».

CFMEU Victoria fails its Covid test Nov 01 by MACG 1 comments

It should go without saying that Anarchist Communists defend the CFMEU against bosses and the State, even when its officials haven’t done the right thing. It’s up to the labour movement to clean its own house, so neither the CFMEU’s failure over COVID19 nor the personal misbehaviour of the Victorian Secretary justify State intervention against the union. Instead, the Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group calls on construction workers to learn the correct lessons from the COVID19 debacle, clean out the ranks of the officials and bring the union under the direct control of the members. The CFMEU is in danger. Only class struggle will save it.

Το National Plan to Transition Australia’s National COVID-19 Response (Εθνικό Σχέδιο αντιμετώπισης της COVID-19 στην Αυστραλία) είναι ένα σχέδιο καταστροφής. Η Ομοσπονδιακή Κυβέρνηση, μετά από εντολή των ισχυρότερων εγχώριων καπιταλιστών, σχεδιάζει να εγκαταλείψει τον αγώνα για την εξάλειψη της COVID19 και ακόμη να την επαναφέρει σε περιοχές της Αυστραλίας που τώρα δεν επηρεάζονται από αυτήν. Απορρίπτει ευγενικά τις όποιες ανησυχίες αναφερόμενη σε σχετική έρευνα του σεβαστού Doherty Institute (Ινστιτούτου Doherty).

Transition to disaster Sep 01 by Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group 0 comments

The National Plan is that solution and the current outbreak in New South Wales is the wedge which the Federal Government is using to make it look inevitable. Unlikely as it might sound, Scott Morrison and Gladys Berejiklian don’t want to stop this wave. They just want it to move slowly, while the vaccination campaign is implemented.
