INVITATION TO AN ANARCHIST AND ANTI-AUTHORITARIAN BLOC AT THE PORTLAND NO KINGS DAY DEMONSTRATION

NO KINGS NO PRESIDENTS!

This is a last-minute invitation to dust off your black clothing (or put it on for the first time!), mask up, and bring an uncompromising spirit to the No Kings demonstration Saturday 10/18.

Protest marches, no matter how many attend, will never pose a threat to power as long as they remain trapped within the cage of politics, intent on dialogue with our rulers. Signs and chants will not stop ICE thugs from kidnapping us, our loved ones or neighbors; only widespread courageous action can do that. Anarchists are right to identify the tyranny of democracy and point out that a cruel world ruled by profit and maintained by borders and wars, police and prisons, has always demanded of us its immediate destruction.

Rather than using this critique as an excuse to set ourselves apart from and above all those freshly enraged by Trump’s fascism, we want to take it to the streets in search of accomplices. In a time when the President and his allies invoke “anarchists” and “insurrection” on the national stage, we find it necessary to articulate our revolutionary desires more clearly and proudly than ever. Yes, it easier to remain in the false safety of isolation, but where’s the fun in that? We refuse to be ruled by fear of any kind, whether it be of repression or the chance of our ideas being rejected by our neighbors.

We believe that people are increasingly alienated from political solutions, know that all the old methods have failed, and feel in their hearts that something is missing. Whether they cannot yet imagine what they might be capable of or feel too alone to take the first step, visible anarchist intervention in the current moment has the potential to open up a world of possibility.

We want to see the spread of bold action against this regime. Being able to articulate our dreams and proposals in the light of day is an important step towards making this a reality.

Look for our banners on the west waterfront under the Burnside Bridge at 12:30 on Saturday. You’ll know them when you see them.

Freedom begins where obedience ends!

See you in the streets!

YOU’RE INVITED: LASER TAG!

Every night for weeks we are forced to listen to the threatening rhythm of helicopter blades as the federal regime spies on us. The only limit power knows is our refusal to submit. This Saturday, October 11th, you are invited to fight back. All you need is a laser. Leave home – they can see where the laser is coming from. Go to a park, a field, or some other public place, and once the clock strikes 9 unleash your beam at the cop copter. Mask up. Coordinate with friends to throw a laser party!

Let’s take back the night together! It won’t take many of us to ground the helicopters!

Portland Anarchist Zine Fair

2025 Portland Anarchist Zine Fair

Oct 5th. 11 AM – 7 PM

Afterparty 9 PM lineup TBA

portlandanarchyfair@anche.no

Everyone who has lived here knows that there are two Portlands: the Portland of the wealthy elite and their yuppie lackeys and the Portland of the poor, of the rabble. The architects of this misery are trying to ease the tension building on the fault line between these two cities using political games, counter-cultural branding, rainbow washing, and welfare “services” that amount to breadcrumbs laid in a mouse trap.

UNMASKING I.C.E.

We are publicizing the names and faces of two I.C.E. agents who have been spotted kidnapping people on multiple occasions across the greater Portland area. These people are a threat to our community. They do not deserve peace or anonymity. No safety for the Gestapo scumbags at I.C.E.!

SARAH ANN EICHLER

Sarah Ann Eichler works as a kidnapper at the Portland I.C.E. facility. Sarah went viral in 2017 for racially profiling a man outside of the Washington County courthouse. Since then she has been spotted leading other deportation arrests. Such as in August of this year when Sarah helped kidnap a man outside a laundromat in Beaverton.

Telephone Pole Camera in SE Portland

A covert security camera system was spotted on a telephone pole on SE 67th ave in Portland. The camera is concealed inside of a box that is attached to the top of a telephone pole. The box is designed to look like some kind of electrical equipment. The front of the box has writing that says “Danger” and “High Voltage.” The bottom of the box has a cable running out of it which appears to attach to the electrical service line. There is a rectangular black square in the center of the box and on the sides of the box. Based on similar devices, this is likely a one-way window for the camera to look out of.

Alert: Possible FBI Door-Knock 9/8

Three Rail fires in three months: some facts and thoughts

Over the last three months, three rail bridges have been damaged or destroyed by fires in the Oregon and Washington area. Each of these fires was set intentionally. No arrests have been made, and to our knowledge, none of these actions have been accompanied by any claim or explanation.

But the world around us is the only explanation we need.

As we barrel forward towards a future of untold climate disasters and total ecological mutilation, the processes of extraction show no sign of stopping… They have only accelerated, with companies racing to exploit new corners of the earth for rare-earth minerals, essential components in chips and semi-conductors, the building blocks of our new digital prisons. Power has proposed false “green solutions” that only serve to further our dependence on technology and extraction and polish the face of industrial capitalism.

Suggested tactical improvements – a response to Some Anarchists letter

Hey there,
I’m Rebel Rabbit and I reviewed the Rose city counter info blog post from Some Anarchist. I’d like to offer a Clearer Argument (based on Some Anarchists piece).

Some points out that protests at the ICE office have become stuck in a loop: people show up, clash with feds, leave, and repeat. This has not shut ICE down or shifted power. To move forward, she argues, we need to change tactics.

AI Event Crashed in SE Portland, Vehicles Vandalized

[INFORMATION FROM LOCAL NEWS]

A group of six masked people vandalized the Southeast Madison Street office of the coworking space Kiln at about 6:45 pm on Thursday, in full view of diners at nearby restaurants and food carts. Flyers left behind at Kiln’s office suggested Kiln was targeted for hosting an artificial intelligence networking event.

The incident appears to coincide with AI Portland’s Summer Soiree event held last night. The networking event, which began at 6 pm, was organized for AI professionals and fans to nerd out over data and algorithms.

Arson against drone manufacturer, Boeing subsidiary

In the early morning hours of July 23rd, an Insitu van was set ablaze while it sat in an empty lot across from their office in Hood River, OR. This fire was set, because the growth of the national security state poses an existential threat to all those who dream of free world. We act in total antagonism against those who enable and profit from militarism, policing and surveillance
