EDITORIAL #1
|
|
by cardell
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the second issue of P@ ONLINE! I hope you'll cope with the
|
|
fact that this issue is rather thinner than the first one but that,
|
|
dear reader, is largely up to you. Write to us!
|
|
|
|
OK, I admit it, I haven't been that active writing articles myself,
|
|
but I've got so much going right now. I'm trying to get some
|
|
cooperation going between several anarchistic groups, zines and
|
|
newspapers for sharing of information and news. If all goes well the
|
|
news section in the November issue will be a whole lot larger.
|
|
|
|
A socialistic computer user group has shown interest in our zine as
|
|
well and I hope they will be interested in the cooperation too. They
|
|
will at least distribute the zine among their members, which is a Good
|
|
Thing to start with.
|
|
|
|
I'm writing this in front of a Facit terminal connected to the
|
|
computers at Lysator via modem, but I hope I'll be able to do all my
|
|
editorial work at home soon. I'll be setting up a BBS as well as soon
|
|
I get my computers running. The BBS will, of course, have the latest
|
|
issue of P@ ONLINE along with a lot of other nice ezines. I'll let you
|
|
know what happens.

What's going on in the States?
|
|
by Chuck
|
|
|
|
Summer is rapidly ending here in Wisconsin and this year will probably
|
|
be remembered as the year without a summer. The corn never got very
|
|
big and it never got very hot. Looks like it might be a long winter,
|
|
but that's OK because it means more reading, more anarchy, and more
|
|
writing getting done.
|
|
|
|
While the summer never heated up, the local anarchist scene
|
|
certainly did. In June, Andrew Wertheimer and I convened the
|
|
first meeting of "some madison anarchists" at the public library.
|
|
Our first meeting attracted around 15 people and about 3 of those
|
|
are still involved. We've been meeting weekly at a local deli and
|
|
have been having lots of good discussion. Currently we have
|
|
a core group of around 5-10 people. We have probably had
|
|
twenty or more different people at our meetings this summer
|
|
and there are a lot more out there. We are having a picnic on the
|
|
lawn of the Capitol this weekend and are hoping for a good turnout.
|
|
We've also been working on various projects such as a room/space
|
|
of our own to be known as the "anarchist resource center."
|
|
It looked liked this project would come to fruition, but will have
|
|
to be delayed for as much as a half year. Meanwhile, we've
|
|
found a local bookstore that is willing to allow us to meet there and
|
|
store our stuff there. I'm pretty excited about the whole thing.
|
|
|
|
The anarchist movement is certainly growing in the U.S. as many
|
|
of you can tell, but what does Chuck have on his mind of late?
|
|
Elections, right-wing evangelicals, and finding a job. By the end
|
|
of the year we should know how much of a threat the resurgent
|
|
right-wing evangelical movement is going to be. If appears that
|
|
these folks will not refrain from interfering in other people's lives,
|
|
I will make the main project of Practical Anarchy [Wisconsin]
|
|
an anti-evangelical campaign. The goal will be to disrupt and
|
|
discredit their groups before they suceed in taking over local
|
|
muncipal and state governments in the U.S. and start passing
|
|
laws hostile to freedom. I'm also debating whether or not I
|
|
should participate in the elections this November. My forthcoming
|
|
edition of Practical Anarchy will have articles devoted to
|
|
this dilemma. As an anarchist, I don't think we should
|
|
legitimize the State any more than we have to, but are there
|
|
issues which are good cases for anarchist participation in elections?
|
|
I don't know. In this country, the pressing areas of concern are
|
|
a women's right to abortion and gay and lesbian rights. That's
|
|
right, those of you reading this in other countries, the real issues
|
|
like the environment, the steamroller of capitalism, and militarism
|
|
aren't even addressed in the campaigns [and we are on the defensive
|
|
on abortion and gay/lesbian rights.]
|
|
|
|
I'm an optimist. I'm encouraged by the rapidly growing anarchist
|
|
movement. Let's all rock the state in '92!

BERLIN MAY 1, 1992
|
|
by Dirk Gomez <djg@cs.tu-berlin.de>
|
|
|
|
The revolutionary demo met as usual at 1 pm in Kreuzberg. When I came
|
|
at 2 pm, the first what I saw was a mass fight between some masked
|
|
"Autonome" and stalinist guys who tried to force the demo for their
|
|
route! Fuck them, they are only 50-100 guys but they are so well
|
|
organized that they make trouble for 5000 people.
|
|
|
|
But their route was (fortunately) denied and the march began. At 2
|
|
o'clock we passed a computer shop which is very new. Some weeks ago
|
|
there was a scene pub. Astonishingly there was no police so that this
|
|
shop was plundered. Really funny to see 10 year old boys running around
|
|
with a big computer :)
|
|
|
|
About 1 hour later we passed a really big cop car which was protected by
|
|
only one cop. So he ran and some guys burnt the car down.
|
|
|
|
After that the police lost for about 30 mins control, cause they thought
|
|
that the riot will begin in SO 36 (where the demo should end). Now some
|
|
cars were smashed and pulled on the street ...
|
|
|
|
Being back in Kreuzberg the demo ended and I and my friends went about
|
|
100 m away from the notorious "rioting street". Nothing much happened
|
|
we only saw masses of cops. btw there were about 4000-4500 cops
|
|
there!!!
|
|
|
|
At 7 I left for home and about 11 o'clock I went again to SO36. I
|
|
thought all was over but the cops made really much trouble. Maybe they
|
|
were demonstrating for sth :-) :-(
|
|
|
|
All in all 300 arrests and 104 cops injured but only 3 so severe that
|
|
they couldn't go to work (so they had nothing!)
|
|
|
|
On the same day the neonazi party FAP wanted to demonstrate in the
|
|
East-Berlin "scene quarter" Prenzlauer Berg (where many Nazis live).
|
|
About 50-80 people were there with an anti-demo with 200 (police)-800(a
|
|
friend) people. The antifas heavily attacked the demo so the nazis left
|
|
the place with panic.
|
|
|
|
On the evening there was a leftist demo in Prenzlauer Berg under the
|
|
motto "The East strikes back"...so it ended: with smashed windows ...
|
|
|
|
So I guess next year: Same procedure as every year!

ZINE REVIEWS
|
|
by Chuck Munson
|
|
|
|
Welcome to Practical Anarchy Online's guide to the zine scene. Most
|
|
of the stuff reviewed here is produced by anarchists, but not all. This
|
|
section has sort of become obligatory in the zine scene--I'll review your
|
|
zine if you review mine. The scene is rather healthy these days.
|
|
Sections like this help fill the void left by the demise of Factsheet Five,
|
|
and that's OK, if not desirable given the decentralism celebrated in
|
|
the zine scene. I try to review everything sent to me. If something
|
|
you sent me isn't reviewed here it either was lost in the mail, I
|
|
misplaced it, or I ran out of space and time.
|
|
|
|
Anal Society No.1 / 1992 $1
|
|
c/o FIA, 215 N. Frances St. #205, Madison, WI 53703
|
|
A new xeroxed, free-form zine put out by some folks here in Madison.
|
|
Stuff on vegetarianism, poetry, and anarchy. Lots of band interviews
|
|
and ads for music. Classic punk-style anarchic collage.

|
|
|
Anarchy: A Journal of Desire Armed No.33 / Summer 1992
|
|
C.A.L., PO Box 1446, Columbia, MO 65205-1446
|
|
The Newsweek of anarchist newspapers (just kidding). Anarchy
|
|
successfully switches to a new format with this issue. They've gone
|
|
from a large tabloid size to a smaller size (8 inches by 10.5 inches). The
|
|
design looks very professional - quite a change from the issues I have
|
|
that came out seven years ago. As always, an excellent letters section,
|
|
extensive international anarchist news, and extensive listings of
|
|
resources of interest to anarchists. I urge everybody to read John
|
|
Zerzan's thought-provoking article "Future Primitive" in which he
|
|
summarizes the recent anthropological evidence which supports
|
|
many anarchist theories. Other articles include one on Columbus
|
|
by Ward Churchill and a critique of bicycles by Michael William. Also
|
|
an excerpt from the upcoming anthology "Gone to Croatan," which I
|
|
am looking forward to.
|
|
|
|
Discussion Bulletin No.55 / Sept./Oct. 1992
|
|
PO Box 1564, Grand Rapids, MI 49501
|
|
A theoretical zine devoted to furthering a discussion amongst "non-
|
|
market, anti-statist and libertarian socialists." These groups reject
|
|
"capitalism's wage, market, and money system along with capitalist
|
|
politics and unionism constitutes the only real alternative to
|
|
capitalism in both its market and statist phases." This is the first
|
|
issue I've ever seen, so the following comments might not be relevant
|
|
(apparently this publication just switched from offset to xerox). I find
|
|
the layout to be rather uninspiring -- xerox doesn't have to look this
|
|
bad, and some graphics might help. Some interesting articles here, like
|
|
the one on green anarchism, but the rest reads like the tired leftist
|
|
doggerel with all of the appropriate buzzwords: proletarian,
|
|
internationalism, comrades, and the like. Several pages were
|
|
unreadable (bad print job).

|
|
Dreamtime Village Rt.2 Box 242W Viola, WI 54464
|
|
Zine created by the folks who live at the Dreamtime Village project
|
|
in rural Wisconsin. The Village is a wild amalgam of anarchy,
|
|
permaculture, music, and grassroots and avant garde art. Practical
|
|
anarchy in action. Recommended.
|

|
|
Fifth Estate Vol. 27/ no.1 (339) Spring 1992
|
|
4632 Second Ave. Detroit, MI 48201
|
|
Quarterly $1.50 single issue $6.00/year
|
|
The highlight of this issue is the interesting and timely article by
|
|
George Bradford titled "The Triumph of Capital." Bradford, who in
|
|
previous issues of FE has written articulate critiques of deep ecology,
|
|
tackles the implications of the "fall of communism." An article on
|
|
Alexander Berkman is also in this issue as well as the usual, excellent
|
|
roundup of anarchist news, letters, and book reviews. Also inspiring
|
|
write-ups of anarchist projects in the Detroit area.
|
|
|
|
GameDay
|
|
1653 Wisconsin Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20007
|
|
$15 (10 issues)
|
|
Zine/newsletter/program for fans of the baseball Baltimore Orioles.
|
|
Picked up a copy outside Oriole Park at Camden Yards (the baseball
|
|
stadium). Published before each homestand. Articles on pennant races
|
|
and tips on where to find parking. Has summaries on how players have
|
|
been doing recently and includes their salaries. Heard that publications
|
|
like this are under pressure from the baseball teams to cease publishing.
|
|
A refreshing alternative to the glossy official programs sold inside
|
|
the stadium.
|
|
|
|
Kick It Over No. 29 / Summer 1992
|
|
PO Box 5811, Station A Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5W 1P2
|
|
$2.50 Canada/USA
|
|
I would like to point out the article titled "Building Economic
|
|
Alternatives' by Gary Moffatt, which I found thought-provoking. Other
|
|
articles include "The Abortion Underground' and "The Population
|
|
Myth" by Murray Bookchin and one on billboard alterations. Also
|
|
lots of news briefs. Read this one from cover to cover.
|
|
|
|
Noisy Concept No. 15 / May, June, July, August 1992
|
|
c/o Mike Thain, 621 Bassett Rd., Bay Village, OH 44140
|
|
$.50 ppd. $4/10 issues
|
|
"The Journal of Deviant Culture and Voluntary Insanity."
|
|
A zine devoted to "punk rock, vegetarianism, and anarchy."
|
|
Congratulations or condolences to Mike on having his zine listed in a
|
|
recent USA Today articles on "zines."
|
|
|
|
Profane Existence No.14 (May-June) No.15 (Summer)
|
|
No.16 (September-October 1992) Bi-monthly
|
|
PO Box 8722, Minneapolis, MN 55408
|
|
$2 ppd. $10.50/6 issues $9 Third Class
|
|
Since the last issue of Practical Anarchy I've been able to get my
|
|
hands on the much talked about Profane Existence. And I am
|
|
impressed! I can't say enough about this newspaper. I know what
|
|
the folks in Minneapolis are doing is an inspiration to many in the
|
|
Midwest and I can see why. In each issue you will find anarchist
|
|
and activist news from around the world, articles, columns, and zine
|
|
and music reviews. I'd say that you can find lots of "practical anarchy"
|
|
in each issue. The folks in the Twin Cities are actually building
|
|
alternative institutions and their paper documents these projects.
|
|
PE has a militant style which I think is very effective. Lots of energy;
|
|
not much dogma. "Making Punk a Threat Again."
|
|
|
|
Second Guess No.3 / Summer 1992
|
|
PO box 9382, Reno, NV 89507
|
|
A xeroxed zine that covers the music and cultural scene in Reno and
|
|
the rest of Nevada. Zine reviews and an interview with the
|
|
controversial Mykel Board. Check out the interesting practical anarchy
|
|
suggestions and fun pranks. Gee, and I thought Nevada was all sand
|
|
and gambling! Nicely done.
|
|
|
|
SLAM No.1 / August/September 1992
|
|
PO Box 22861, Alexandria, VA 22304
|
|
$1 $5/year (six issues)
|
|
This is the first issue in what hopes to be a zine that features zine
|
|
and record reviews. They reprint the text of the Bloods & Crips
|
|
program to rebuild LA -- which if you haven't read, you ought to.
|
|
Political news, commentary, and graphics. A pretty decent first try.
|
|
|
|
Social Anarchism No.17 / 1992
|
|
2743 Maryland Ave., Baltimore, MD 21218
|
|
$10/4 issues
|
|
This journal always has an excellent, extensive book review section.
|
|
Each issue also includes poetry (which I don't always read, not being
|
|
a big poetry fan). Articles in this issue cover: pirate radio, women
|
|
living in egalitarian intentional communities, and anarcho-feminism.
|
|
SA features some of the best anarchist writing on the continent today.

Internet Relay Chat
|
|
|
|
IRC is a place to talk on, not unlike the old CB that radio amateurs
|
|
used. You join a channel of your choice. Typical channels are #gblf
|
|
(for Gays, Bisexuals, Lesbians and Friends) and #anarchy.
|
|
|
|
To get onto IRC you need an IRC client at a place virtually near you,
|
|
i.e. at a site you've got an account on. Ask around if there allready
|
|
is one installed. If not, consider compiling one of your own.
|
|
|
|
You can try out IRC by telnetting to bradenville.andrew.cmu.edu (no
|
|
login) or santafe.santafe.edu (login: irc). Take a look at the help
|
|
facility when you're on and don't be shy to ask for help.
|
|
|
|
As soon as I'm own I try to keep the channels #future and #anarchy
|
|
open. I suggest you do the same so these channels are there virtually
|
|
all the time. See you there!

THE ANARCHISTS MANUAL
|
|
by conan the barbarian
|
|
|
|
trip wires
|
|
|
|
you can use an m-80, h-100, blockbuster or any other type of explosive
|
|
that will light a fuse. if you have a 9-volt battery, from a radio
|
|
controlled car or whatever, and get either a solar igniter
|
|
(preferably) or some steel wool, you can create a remote ignition
|
|
switch. to do this, set up a schematic:
|
|
|
|
------------------> battery (+)
|
|
steel || -> battery (-)
|
|
wool || /
|
|
:==:--- <--fuse \
|
|
|| /
|
|
---- spst switch--\
|
|
|
|
when the switch is on, the current will flow through the steel wool or igniter
|
|
and heat up, lighting the fuse in the process.
|
|
--- note: for steel wool, get a very thin piece of wire first and pump the
|
|
current through it, to make sure it will get hot enough to light the fuse.
|
|
|
|
now plant your explosive wherever you want it, but bury it and cover the wires
|
|
thoroughly. now get some wire (20 lb. test fishing line works well) amd tie
|
|
one end to a secure object. secure the switch to something, and make a loop on
|
|
the other end of the fish line. put the loop around the switch so that when it
|
|
is pulled, it will flip the switch and detonate the explosive. note: this is
|
|
only one way of rigging it. feel free to experiment!
|
|
|
|
landmines
|
|
|
|
first, get a push-button switch. connect one side to a 9-volt battery, and the
|
|
other to a solar igniter (or steel wool.) now connect the other end of the
|
|
igniter to the other battery terminal. next, fasten the end of your explosive's
|
|
fuse (m-80, pipe bomb, etc.) to the ingiter.
|
|
decide where you want the mine, and dig a hole (not too deep, but enough to
|
|
cover all your equipment.) decide what direction your enemy will be coming
|
|
from, and plant the switch accordingly. leave the switch partially exposed,
|
|
but make sure it's difficult to see it. plant the explosive about three feet
|
|
from the switch, because there will be a delay before the explosion. when your
|
|
enemy steps on it, b o o m ! ! !
|
|
|
|
basic tactics of car destruction
|
|
|
|
all the best methods of blowing up a car require that you get under
|
|
the hood. explosives are placed as close to the occupants as
|
|
possible, for maximum damage and killing effectiveness. one good
|
|
explosive is several sticks of dynamite (about three) taped together
|
|
with duct tape or electrical tape.
|
|
the fuse, which can be homemade, commercial or safety, is wrapped around the
|
|
exhaust manifold a few times. after driving for awhile, the manifold gets hot
|
|
enough to ignite the fuse. this method has several advantages over simply
|
|
wiring the car to explode. first, if the explosion doesn't kill the victim,
|
|
the crash probably will. second, if the victim is a passenger, the driver
|
|
might start the car before the victim gets in. that could get a little
|
|
embarrassing for the bomber, couldn't it...?
|
|
old-fashioned types, like the mafia, would rather wire cars. they want to
|
|
see the car blowing up instead of letting it do so on the road. they usually
|
|
use three sticks of dynamite, two lengths of electric wire (with alligator
|
|
clips for easy attachment) and an electric blasting cap. the cap is stuck into
|
|
a stick of dynamite, and its wires are attached to the electric wires. then
|
|
one alligator clip is clipped to the input side of the coil, and the other is
|
|
fastened to any metal surface in the car's frame as a ground.
|
|
|
|
carbide bomb
|
|
|
|
*** caution: this is extremely dangerous. be very careful!
|
|
|
|
obtain some calcium carbide. this is the stuff used in carbide lamps, and
|
|
can be found at almost any hardware store. take a few pieces (it looks like
|
|
gravel) and put them in a glass jar with some water. put a lid on tightly.
|
|
the carbide will react with the water to produce acetylene carbonate, which is
|
|
similar to the gas used in cutting torches. eventually, the jar will explode
|
|
from internal pressure. (don't use a super-strong jar or it might not break.)
|
|
if you leave a burning rag nearby, you'll get a nice fireball.
|
|
|
|
portable grenade launcher
|
|
|
|
if you have a bow, this one is for you. remove the ferrule from an aluminum
|
|
arrow, and fill the arrow with black powder. (try grade ffff, it burns easily)
|
|
glue a shotshell primer into the hole where the ferrule was. next, glue a bb
|
|
onto the primer, and you're ready to go!
|
|
make sure nobody is around, because little shreds of aluminum go everywhere.
|
|
|
|
auto-exhaust flame thrower
|
|
|
|
for this one, all you need is a car, a sparkplug, ignition wire and a simple
|
|
toggle switch. install the spark plug into the last four or five inches of the
|
|
exhaust pipe by drilling a hole that the plug can screw into easily. attach
|
|
the wire (regular insulated wire) to one side of the switch, and to the spark
|
|
plug. the other side of the switch is attached to the positive battery
|
|
terminal. with the car running, simply hit the switch and watch the flames!
|
|
be careful that nobody's behind you. the flames can shoot out twenty feet.
|
|
|
|
section II -- pipe bombs
|
|
|
|
co2 canisters
|
|
|
|
co2 canisters are among the simplest and safest forms of pipe bombs. they
|
|
can be purchased in any sporting goods store for about $.50 each. simply
|
|
release the co2 inside, and fill them with gunpowder. if you can't obtain
|
|
gunpowder, use powdered zinc and sulfur. (60% zinc, 40% sulfur, by volume.)
|
|
fill your co2 with whatever explosive you are using. plug the end with a
|
|
fuse (1/16 of an inch diameter), light it, and run. there is usually only one
|
|
of shrapnel, about the size of your fist. make sure the outer surface of your
|
|
bomb is free of gunpowder. otherwise, it could detonate several seconds early.
|
|
|
|
standard pipe bomb
|
|
|
|
ok, heres how to make your standard pipe bomb. go to your local junkyard (or
|
|
anywhere, for that matter) and get a piece of pipe of whetever size you want.
|
|
thread each end (on the outside) and cap one end. drill a hole in the middle
|
|
of the pipe, and stick your fuse in the hole. fill the pipe with one of the
|
|
explosives mentioned earlier, oil the open end, and cap it very carefully.
|
|
if you don't oil the ends, it could spark. if it sparks, you're in trouble...
|
|
so oil it before you cap this end. then put it in a hole with a long fuse,
|
|
light it, and run like hell.

BOYCOTT & BUYCOTT
|
|
by Chuck & cardell
|
|
|
|
Boycott:
|
|
|
|
Cracker Barrel Restaurants: Still discriminating against gays and
|
|
lesbians in employment. Various gay and lesbian groups around the
|
|
US have called for this boycott. So far, the chain seems to have
|
|
deaf ears.
|
|
|
|
The town of Springfield, Oregon [U.S.]: This town recently passed a
|
|
restrictive law against gay and lesbian rights. This guarantees a climate
|
|
of hate ripe for bashing. Don't visit this town or buy products from
|
|
companies located there.
|
|
|
|
McDonalds: Let's put them out of business. Various reasons to do so:
|
|
excessive packaging, encourages a world to be more car dependent,
|
|
encourages people to eat too much meat, and slick advertising designed
|
|
to get children hooked on a lifetime McDonalds habit.
|
|
|
|
Buycott:
|
|
|
|
This is a list of companies whose products hasn't been tested on
|
|
animals taken from a list that a Swedish organisation publishes. It's
|
|
used without any permission whatsoever. :)
|
|
|
|
In this list there might be companies that should be boycotted anyway,
|
|
but if so, it has nothing to do with testing on animals. Please notify
|
|
us if there is.
|
|
|
|
V in front of the company name means their products doesn't contain
|
|
anything from animals. B means there is, but that that it's natural
|
|
animal products like milk and such. M means there's make up products
|
|
in the serie as well as other things.
