Message To The French People

This writing was written by Deep Green Resistance cadre in December 2018 and is published here in English for the first time.
In the past weeks we have seen an uprising of the people.
Macron and his cronies in the L’Assemblee have gone too far again.
The average people in France are living a precarious life.
We are poor, we are sick, and we are tired of the bosses and the politicians, the little dictators.
Now they try to tell us that we are responsible for paying a tax on fuel to solve global warming.
These capitalist dogs who caused the problem in the first place now want to turn around and rob us to fix it.
Their fuel taxes are a form of theft from the poor, one of the many ways they rob us of life and liberty.
First they exploit our labor.
Then they poison us with their factories and pollution.
Then they rob us as landlords.
Next they commodify every part of our lives through mass advertising.
These elites are vampires sucking us dry.
The French people have a true sense of our power.
Our forebearers took the rich to the Guillotines and erected the barricades in Paris.
Our grandmothers and grandfathers fought the Nazi regime from the streets and rooftops and alleyways and made collaborators pay for their self-serving treachery.
Now our very own government has unleashed their trained dogs against the people, injuring hundreds and leaving the streets of France bloody.
We say: no more.
No more can we tolerate their capitalist lies.
No more will we pay their farcical taxes.
No more will we cooperate with their tyrannical vision.
No more will we stand idly by as fascists step to the fore.
As the police and security forces of the state run amok through the streets of this country, we say it is time.
Let us rise up.
We need a radical new imagination to chart a course out of this terrible storm.
What we want:
- We want the freedom to determine our own destiny.
We can no longer rely on distant wealthy politicians.- We want an end to the robbery of the people.
This means an end to capitalism and to the capitalist economy and a return to localized economies of sharing and cooperation.
Life is incompatible with constant growth.- We want a true environmentalism that serves the people and the natural world, not the rich.
“Green technology” and “green capitalism” are false solutions that have been sold to us through lies, but on reconnecting with the spirit of the land and changing our economic structure.- These goals are mutually supportive, and one cannot succeed without the other.
Building a new France and a new world means dismantling mass industrial society, ending the reign of capitalism, regaining a sense of our own political power, autonomy, and responsibility, and reintegrating ourselves into the ecology of the land.
As the world falls deeper into crisis, our leaders are showing their ineptitude.
They do not serve us, they serve the rich.
It is up to the people of France to disarm the state through the solemn manifestation of our will.
In the face of racism and bigotry, we must find solidarity.
In the face of state violence and repression, we must find courage.
It is our obligation to fight and win.
As you can see, dear reader, freedom is alive and in the air, we only have to grab our share of it.
Nobody is going to come tell you how to be free, you will have to figure it out all on your own, and for yourself.
A lucky few among us may find a guide, but mostly we will have to make it up as we go.
