BLOCKADE OF BRÜNINGHOFF GROUP’S CALF SLAUGHTERHOUSE (BOCHOLT – GERMANY) : THE 60 COMRADES OF THE COLLECTIVE 269 LIBÉRATION ANIMALE RESISTED FOR 14 HOURS AND HAVE COMPLETELY STOPPED THE ACTIVITY OF THIS SPECIESIST STRUCTURE FOR THE WHOLE DAY !

Yesterday june 20th, 60 activists of our collective, coming from across Europe, broke intro Bocholt slaughterhouse in Germany in order to shut down the site.
They stopped the death machine one day directly impacting the group specialised in the slaughter of calves.

The activists entered the site at 4.00 AM and the last activist was evacuated by the police at 7.00 PM !

Despite the repression against the activists, direct actions by autonomous and anarchists groups like blockades, liberations and sabotages must continue. The are various symbols and structures of the speciesist domination that can be targeted, it is a question of daring and putting into practice our ideas, complicities, knowledge and ingenuity in terms of strategy.

This offensive perspective of 269 Libération Animale collective endorses antispeciesism as a political struggle. It is a struggle for animal liberation but more generally against all systems of domination. Praxis is inherent in our perception of antispeciesism, – revolutionary – and built with the oppressed unlike many “animal rights’ associations” that shed light on humans and compassion.

We think that we cannot lead the antispeciesist struggle without direct confrontations against the speciesist system itself and we do not consider the State and capitalism as allies in this struggle. Indeed, strategies involving them always lead to authoritarian measures that strengthen the control of the State on the lives of the animals like laws and decrees that reform the speciesist system instead of abolishing it. This cooperation is fake, does not reflect our values and is a complete betrayal of the animals.

DEFEND DIRECT ACTION & ATTACK THE SPECIESIST SYSTEM
