Another Communiqué

You have seen that we are real, and that we are not merely pushing empty

words. As we said: we are not one group but many. You have seen us in

Madison WI, Ft. Collins CO, Reisertown MA, Olympia WA, Des Moines IA,

Lynwood WA, Washington DC, Ashville NC, Buffalo NY, Hollywood FL,

Vancouver WA, Frederick MA, Denton TX, Gresham OR, Eugene OR, Portland

OR, among others, and we work in countless locations invisibly. You’ve

read the communiqués from the various cells, you’ve seen the

proliferating messages in graffiti and elsewhere, and you know that we

are serious.

We were unsurprised to see thirty days come and thirty days pass with no

sign of consilience or even bare-minimum self-reflection from you who

impersonate healthcare providers in order to harm the vulnerable.

History may not repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes, and we’ve

already seen such stanzas where medical autonomy is stripped away,

humanity is increasingly criminalized, and merely surviving becomes

largely untenable.

Your thirty days expired yesterday. We offered an honourable way out.

You could have walked away. Now the leash is off. And we will make it as

hard as possible for your campaign of oppression to continue. We have

demonstrated in the past month how easy and fun it is to attack. We are

versatile, we are mercurial, and we answer to no one but ourselves. We

promised to take increasingly drastic measures against oppressive

infrastructures. Rest assured that we will, and those measures may not

come in the form of something so easily cleaned up as fire and graffiti.

Sometimes you will see what we do, and you will know that it is us.

Sometimes you will think you merely are unlucky, because you cannot see

the ways which we interfere in your affairs. But your pointless attempts

to control others, and make life more difficult, will not be met

passively. Eventually your insurance companies, and your financial

backers will realize you are a bad investment.

From here forward, any anti-choice group who closes their doors, and

stops operating will no longer be a target. But until you do, it’s open

season, and we know where your operations are. The infrastructure of the

enslavers will not survive. We will never stop, back down, slow down, or

retreat. We did not want this; but it is upon us, and so we must deal

with it proportionally. We exist in confluence and solidarity with all

others in the struggle for complete liberation. Our recourse now is to

defend ourselves and to build robust, caring communities of mutual aid,

so that we may heal ourselves without the need of the medical industry

or any other intermediary. Through attacking, we find joy, courage, and

strip the veneer of impenetrability held by these violent institutions.

And for the allies of ours who doubt the authenticity of the communiqués

and actions: there is a way you can get irrefutable proof that these

actions are real. Go do one of your own. You are already one of us.

Everyone with the urge to paint, to burn, to cut, to jam: now is the

time. Go forth and manifest the things you wish to see. Stay safe, and

practice your cursive.
