About the repressive attack in Mexico
Letter from Mario López “ Tripa ” - 27th of March 2014
You are waiting for the revolution ! Very well ! My own began along time ago ! When you are ready — God , what an endless wait ! — it won ’ t nauseate me to go along the road awhile with you ! But when you stop , I will continue on my mad and triumphant march toward the great and sublime conquest of Nothing ! Every society you build will have its fringes , and on the fringes of every society , heroic and restless vagabonds will wander , with their wild and virgin thoughts , only able to live by preparing ever new and terrible outbreaks of rebellion ! I shall be among them !
– Renzo Novatore , My iconoclast individualism
Comrades , it ’ s been a long time I haven ’ t communicated nothing public , apart from a few things I wrote on the development of the juridical process against me for attacks to the public peace ; this time , I ’ m not communicating to tell you something about this process or about juridical issues that don ’ t matter much to me right now and in reality I didn ’ t care much about to begin with . This time I ’ m writing to re-declare myself – again – and position myself about what ’ s going on in México , in respect to the current repressive attack that the Mexican State is articulating and beginning to unleash , it ’ s clearly well learned , from its Italian and Chilean buddies ; because in the end it is nothing else than a pitoresque reproduction of the Marini style set-up or the « caso bombas », but made in Mexico ; a set-up that can only be considered as an immediate response of the enemy in front of the pressure exerted by groups and anarchists individualities [ 1 ] and libertarians – night and day , public or covert –, before the dangerousness of such ideas for the social good , and it must not be taken in a mediated sense that would make us victims in front of a system which we decided to fight against , by any means or through any organizing model . A setup with apparent leaders , a hierarchical organizational structure and an organized criminal structure with terrorist objectives in which even a judicial team was tasked to take us out of jail when that would happen ; a structure that bears more similarities with any group of narco-traffickers , guerrilla or marxist organization of any ideology ( Leninist , Maoist , Marquista , Stalinist , etc ..) than the way we anarchists conceive organization ; organization of any manner , calling itself public or closed , especially when its labeled as informal . A set-up where the principal promoters of anarchist action are comrades from other countries that came to Mexico for X motive and following what the bastards from the Attorney General ’ s office say , that they are the funding source of the struggle ; a setup where they seek not only to harm a specific sector of the anarchist movement but various sectors of local anarchism ; a police set-up where the mass media of the State / Capital are playing an important role in constructing . But well , what the State / Capital could do or think in this issue is not my business , first because I don ’ t think like power , and precisely because I ’ m not a person of power and authority . My mind cannot think in this authoritarian way and I prefer not wasting time
