06 feb 2010 - Make Capitalism History through revolution

In every city around the world, make capitalism history through revolution !

06 feb 2010 - Make Capitalism History - Just Do It !!

Poverty is not just caused by government policies – it’s caused by the global economic and political system. Mega-rich banks are sucking the people of the world dry. Nations are reaching record unemployment figures, personal VAT is at a stagering all time high and still the banks are managing to pay out record bonusses without any real intervention from government. In 2010 UK unemployment is set to reach 3.000.000. On the 6th of February 2010 groups from all over the world will be taking part in a global revolution to make capitalism history. No longer will we let the banks and governments stand by while they blaintantly steal our jobs and money.

We ask that you take part in your own major cities and help to make our voices heard!

@narchist

25.01.2010 20:12

no need to worry, the facebook event is just one of the ways that people can sign up and communicate with one another.

there are several sites around the world acting on this and already www.antifa.fr/worldwide have it on their front page - hardly a small site.

most the people on there are all members of certain groups and already 2000 people in denmark alone are expected to show up.

if you guys google

ΣΑΒΒΑΤΟ 6 ΦΕΒΡΟΥΑΡΙΟΥ 2010 - ΠΑΓΚΟΣΜΙΑ ΕΞΕΓΕΡΣΗ

and

LE 6 FEVRIER 2010, FAISONS TOMBER LE CAPITALISME

you will see that people are making a combined effort through their own countries to take part.

maybe this is why in the Uk we are all suffering these problems without any solution in sight, because everytime someone makes an effort to do something, others put them down instead of joining. other countries have had no problems in taking part in this, even as far away as Turkey.

why dont you guys join instead of saying silly things like TROLL? ;)

can't wait

25.01.2010 21:37

ooh thats exciting cant wait for february 7th! do you think you will have saved the world by then or will it take a few days? im a cripple i cant take to the streets but i sure look forward to the post capitalism paradise later next month.

25.01.2010 22:12

you actually know how pathetic that sounds? i dont even know whether i should waste an effort saying anything back. nobody is forcing you to take part in this event. so whats the point in coming on here and just putting negative comments down? if you dont like the effort being made, theres a solution, go make your own, that simple. ;)

Ignore the naysayers... most of them are middle class, pseudo intellectuals who live on government grants or social security provided by the taxes imposed on the real working class. They are shit scared that people will actually DO ANYTHING... because it would expose them as the parasites they truly are... endlessly spouting empty sympathetic words to those who are carrying the real weight.

What you are doing is a contribution... this will be a long, hard struggle to destroy the centralised administrative, financial, military and propaganda wings of the oligarchs who seem to be under the impression that they are our masters. Time to teach them a lesson in manners and at the same time take back the common land that has been stolen from the people, not just in this country but around the world. Also to re-establish the common law which is our real heritage, not their statutory bullshit that creates laws that enslave the real people.

Smash the system anyway you can!!!!

Thanks in advance

..so don't use it!

you idiots

You can't force a mobilization

26.01.2010 13:44

This is totally stupid. there is nobody mobilising for this protest in London and there is no group or whatever behind it. You can't force a mobilisation by setting up a fancy website and riot porn pictures.

???

go for it

26.01.2010 14:30

I think a mobilisation organised in this way could be very effective a grassroots organised demonstration not by swp or uaf or state led organisations.To all the people slating what the fuck have you done?

a few weeks ago this lot (ie. one guy and a few idiot followers from different countries) were calling for a 'global revolution against TEH NEW WORLD ORDER!!'... then they got laughed at for being idiots and their facebook page (covered in links to right-wing, anti-semitic David Icke bullshit) disappeared.. seems they've now cropped up again with some vaguely more anti-capitalist rhetoric... but it's still a total joke and the revolution will simply NOT happen on 6 february. it's fucking laughable that a revolutionary situation will arise out of some stupid kids with a riot fetish dressed in black meeting together in the capitals of a few developed western countries. i'd be surprised if they even get the wee fight with the polis that they seem so desperate for. just LOL

To be honest this isn't a bad idea, it would be amazing to have mass direct action all over the world on the same day. I t would show the global context of struggle and increase internationalist solidarity. It's just a shame that it has been organised by this guy. Kudos to him for trying to organise this thing but for it to work it would need to be better organised and not run by one guy who is a narcisist(6th of Feb is the organisers birthday) who just absolutely flys off the handle with anyone who disagrees with him.(just watch him call me a reactionary pseudo-intellectual who is probably working for the cops.)

If something like this were to be done properly it wouldn't be done over facebook of all places it should be done in clandestine between different groups across the world which would actually build international links, not just a facebook group you can passively join and feel cool about when you join.

your hate campaign is aimed at the wrong people. Its easy to put down others who want change, end of the day why isnt your opinion aimed at those who have power instead of those who dont?

Thank you kindly and I must agree with every word you have said. You are a true soldier and it would be an honour to smash the system by your side ;)

Likewise bro, day-by-day more and more people are waking up and joining the struggle. We may operate in different ways at different places but we have a shared objectives. People can move mountains piece by piece. Keep chipping away at the Fascist Oligarchs and their tyrannical capitalist system of slavery.

They have stolen the common land and holid it privately or designated it 'National Trust' or 'Wildlife Preserves' and with their legal fictions of statutory law have prohibited all natural human activities such as building shelters, making fires, hunting and fishing, etc. Human being have lived in harmony with nature for tens of thousands of years. All these things are infringements of our COMMON LAW RIGHTS and need to be corrected.

We are in a period of transition.

All the best!

PS. We seem to have struck a few raw nerves round here :)

Hey Klamber and 06Feb2010,

Are there any other sources where I can get anymore information on this up and coming event? I've checked out French ones to get an idea of what could possibly happen, but hey, what good is that when you're in England? I've tried to watch a video clip about it on Youtube, but it has been removed by the viewer... anything else to view, or can be viewed that is based over here?

See you guys on the streets! : )

"They have stolen the common land and holid it privately or designated it 'National Trust' or 'Wildlife Preserves' "

These places are held in trust, it means no building without massive problems, if you read more books instead of the rag by the princling you would know that there is more protection under the law (including common law) for these, this also includes military lad (available to public use when not in use by the forces, and crown lands which may have local restrictions on use but for the most part are for the common good (st James,Hyde and Green in London)

and with their legal fictions of statutory law have prohibited all natural human activities such as building shelters, making fires, hunting and fishing, etc

Except for the parts of the Forrestry commision lands where "do not burn down the forrest you dick" is enforceable I distinctly remember most of my child hood doing the same activities you say are banned? The exceptions are hunting and fishing, first you have to ask the person whos land it is...most will say "OK" and away you go, this is because they dont want witless uni types killing everything and leaving them nothing or having dogs chase the animals.

Human being have lived in harmony with nature for tens of thousands of years.

Wrong, just wrong, man, even in the outback of Australia has manipulated the land for his own comfort. Since man crawled out of the ooze it has damaged stuff, its our numbers that have outstripped the resourses. How would you fix that?

All these things are infringements of our COMMON LAW RIGHTS and need to be corrected.

Ahhh COMMON LAW rights.....The basis on which all laws in this country are based, before you spout them, read them. Then look at Scotland, its laws are ALL common law. Read them and then ask if thats all you want.

Idea good in principle

02.02.2010 10:58

The idea of holding a protest against the banks and the system in principle is good. Trying to organise a large one online is goin to be difficult becasue the true number of people turnign up wont be known....i.e empty promises. Better to meet and organise beforehand. Maybe this is why a few thousand are turning up in Denmark..... However a smal, demo or protest it is better than none and better to turn up and at least display solidarity with overseas comrades.

Have we had the revolution?

07.02.2010 01:22

Ah no one turned up the the cyber riot fetishist gathering. What a surprise. You can't destory a system and social relationships by calling a facebook event. Idiots. Ever heard of living in the real world where real anarchists and activists work hard to advance the acceptance of revolutionary ideas and practices so that some day genuine change will come. However it won't come just because some mentalist called John Hadley calls for a revolution on his birthday. Children playing on the internet again!!!
