«Autonomous Action»: support and take part

2024 was not easy for anyone: wars around the world, right-wing governments coming to power, tightening repression and screws were on the agenda in various countries.

The «Autonomous Action» Media Group is a community of Russian-speaking anarchists located in Russia, forced to leave it temporarily or living in other countries. «The most important war for us» is the Ukrainian one. The future of Russia directly depends on its outcome.

Antti Rautiainen: Autonomous Action, Anarchy And Ukraine

This video on YouTube channel "The Right Podcast" includes an overview of Autonomous Action and an interview with Antti Rautiainen who was exiled from Russia.

Support the revolutionary media struggling in Russia

"Autonomous Action" is an anarchist organization founded in 2002. Our goal is to lay the groundwork for a new culture built on self-organization and free from all forms of oppression. We are currently working to rebuild the anti-authoritarian and anarchist movement in Russia after a period of stagnation.

Due to unprecedented repression, the relocation of part of the team, and our consistent anti-war stance, the public activity of Autonomous Action is not possible in Russia at the moment.

Praha: May Day – internationally against militarism

US army organizes a military parade across east Europe, mainstream media hails propaganda of USA, high-ranking politician would gladly accept permanent presence of soldiers of United States. The similar slogans, that were used to celebrate USSR, now celebrate USA. The similar catchwords, that were used to defame US imperialism, defame now Russia. This is all because we are forced to accept alleged need of strengthening our army to defend against Russian threat.
