Hi everyone! Today is Sunday, 23 of October and we continue our weekly podcast “Trends of order and chaos” This is episode 77. So, what we saw and thought about this week?

At the beginning of September, a court in Tyumen arrested six antifascists, the youngest of whom is 23, the oldest - 28 years old. One of the arrested is accused of organizing a terrorist group, the rest – of participation. Apart from that, two of the defendants in the case are accused of manufacturing explosives. Since then, three of the accused, have informed about tortures by electric shocks.

Ihar Alinevich , an anarcho-partisan sentenced to 20 years for participating in the Belarusian uprising, went on hunger strike. Members of the Anarchist Black Cross collected the latest information about Igor from the Facebook of his mother Valentina Alinevich and from his close friends. Here's what we were able to find out.

What follows is a (partial) translation of the September 25 episode of the weekly podcast of the Russian anarchist network and media platform, avtonom.org.

Hi everyone! Today’s September 19 and we continue our podcast of “Trends of order and chaos”. This is episode 72. These are the main topics on pat week’s agenda.

During September, we have been raising funds to continue media operations of Autonomous Action in increasingly difficult circumstances in Russia. We have received lots of donations, and we are very grateful to everyone who has supported us this far!

Solidarity Zone is a new initiative, established by anti-authoritarian activists. Anarchist Black Cross Moscow is cooperating with the new initiative, and we encourage everyone to support it.

Solidarity Zone is a horizontal initiative supporting those persecuted for anti-war actions. We came together in the spring of 2022 to help those left without attention by human rights organizations.

This article was written in the first part of July. Now the anti-authoritarian platoon has moved forward. It transferred to the new unit, where it will recover trainings, recruitment, and, after the required preparation, it is promised that it will be moved to battle. This is the moment for conclusions after the first phase of the existence of the platoon—in the frame of territorial defense of Kiev oblast.

The support group of antifascists, defendants of “Tyumen case” issued a call for fundraising.

You may donate for lawyer costs of the arrested via bank (in Russia): https://www.tinkoff.ru/cf/6PJPbxpphDt

We announced before, that we have to halt our crowdfunding prematurely in 15th of September, but documents of FireFund were eventually accepted by their payment provider, so our crowdfunding will continue as before. We are collecting funds for daily maintenance of our social media. We are spreading news about anarchist activities in Russia in daily basis, as well as news on repression and anti-war protests. We should reach our goal of 3000 euros until 1st of October, this far we have raised 1700 euros and 1300 euros are missing. Unless we reach our goal, we get no money. 

Hello everyone! It is sunday 11th of September, and a new episode of our podcast "Trends of order and chaos". This is the 71th episode, and here are the main topics of the past week.
