Onus is On Us
While out with my not-so-famous Artist friends, the subject came up that
the news agencies of our day do not report in on the ground. Yes you, Media 24, eTV, SABC, Multichoice and you others. They say what
profits them and their interests (which are usually profit-oriented) With so
many news and multimedia companies in this South Africa of ours, We find it quite
surprising (and in some ways inspiring) to know that there are still stories to
write.
It frightens us, sometimes, this onus upon us.
It sometimes daunts us. Then we think
to our self "If not us, who else? Who can do it?"
Any way, someone else is not us.They do not have our eyes, our vision, voice
and perspective. The gift of being our self has been given to us and these cells
are no one else's. This is on us, no matter the trials and stresses that come
with it. If we waited 10 years or 100, no one would have designed the Extreme
Reform Engine. No one else designed the Chaotic Front. Therefore, they cannot
do this. This is ours. It is something between an oversized bastard sword and a
cross. We either wield or I bear it as a burden. The choice rests here.
So while other news agencies are concerned with homicidal double-amputees
and the size of pop stars' asses, we here at the Front will continue to bring
you politics from the ground and magick from the cosmos.
We will continue to sabotage, overthrow, disobey and demolish bad policy
wherever and whenever we find it. We have
had this lifetime to begin this work. Anarchists Earth-wide have been on this for
generations upon generations. If we all choose complacency, we are all but
dead. The freedom of governing the self and choosing one's own fate are
consistently, constantly and belligerently under threat.
We really didn't want to be a soldier in any form. This is necessity. When
Mphutlane Wa Bofelo asked us a few weeks
ago for a list of Anarchists in South Africa, we couldn't give him one. Not even
one more name. Sometimes we feel quite alone. But Mphutlane, if you are reading
this, please steer your eye to Bolo'Bolo. They are a small community of
Anarchists in Cape Town we met too briefly. It is within our plans to return
there and join them in their work to proliferate information, freedom of choice
and awareness.
The Bureau of Sabotage began in the future envisioned in the 1970s. Here, we choose to begin the best methods we can to form foundations for what is an
engine of sabotage and creation. An engine of chaotic energy, something the establishments
cannot swallow, contain or control. There are others out there, but for now,
these are our feet walking these mean streets, loaded with retarded policies and
even more retarded police, aiming to retard and perturb or wills.
This cannot stand. Therefore, this most Chaotic of Fronts is formed as a
weapon against them.
We'll quit when we're dead.
