Last week in fifty countries and hundreds of cities we distanced ourselves from the consumer rat-race and experienced for a brief moment the coming insurrection. Check out some of the actions on our homepage.
The idea behind our Rebellion is a powerful: We refuse to engage, refuse to react, refuse to confine ourselves to officially sanctioned protests. Every time they call an economic summit or pass an austerity bill, we are elsewhere. We attack consumer capitalism on our own time in our own spontaneous way – like a swarm of bees attacking a wounded beast – with a billion incessant stings. And we keep escalating our daily actions, until the cost of doing business as usual becomes impossible to bear and the bloodied beast finally falls to its knees.
Now, we're looking for a few dozen hardcore jammers, the rare ones who have fire in their belly and fervor in their souls, to join a special tactical group. If you're interested, send an email to [email protected] with a few sentences about yourself, any strategic insights you have and the kinds of actions you would like to collaborate on in the coming year.
