The prisons and courtrooms are full of anti-fascists:
Munich, Dresden, Leipzig, Berlin, Düsseldorf, Wuppertal, Duisburg, Paris and of course Budapest. The Budapest complex is everywhere. Trials have taken place and are taking place in all of these cities. In these cities and many more, anti-fascists are in prisons who are linked to the Budapest complex.
The court hearings take place all over Europe. The anti-fascists Zaid and Gino are at acute risk of extradition. One to Hungary, the other to Germany. So far, in the case of Maja, Germany has been the only country that has willingly extradited her, even if it did so under the rule of law. sense was illegal. But when it comes to Gino, an anti-fascist with unclear nationality, France's justice system also turns a blind eye. Antifascism is bad enough for the judiciary, but without papers you become a pawn in Europe's deportation policy. Antifascism has long been shown to be more international than ever.
Since the USA „Antifa“ have declared themselves a unified terrorist organization, the repression of anti-fascist movements is entering the next round. The comrades from the Antifa East complex in particular felt this with all the severity. Your digital publicity has been massively restricted. With the next attack on noblogs, the next channels were cut. So the reporting is deliberately left to the bourgeois and right-wing to right-wing extremist media. „Hammer Gang“ they call the Budapest complex, left-wing extremists who make the cities of Europe unsafe. Not a word is wasted about the Nazis calling for a day of honor in Hungary. Each. Year. On’s. New.
There you can find the Hammerskins, Blood and Honor or Combat 18. Nazi groups that are illegal in many countries. The end of Orban's government did not change acceptance of the Nazi groups.
But we are not here just to denounce the judiciary or to criticize the pseudo-journalism of the bourgeois press. What we are actually here for is to show solidarity. Solidarity for all defendants in the Budapest complex. But also solidarity for everyone in prison who is at the mercy of this shitty system. But there is also reason for hope and courage. Nanuk, another until recently imprisoned anti-fascist, reports on his imprisonment. He travels all over Germany and talks about his experiences in prison. Even though his experiences are subjective and his experiences do not reflect those of all prisoners, they are still encouraging. Nanuk spoke of solidarity between the prisoners. That life in prison doesn't stop. And that Nazis are alone in prison, while Antifas are part of a community!
Prison is not a pleasant experience. There's nothing to romanticize about it. But it is possible to continue. It is possible to find warmth there too, in this fucked up cold that is forced upon us. In there, as well as out here, the following applies: we are only strong together! Antifa also means caring for our comrades. That's why we as Budapest solidarity groups take to the streets, to the courtrooms, to the prisons. Anti-fascists, lawyers, friends and family of the prisoners work together against the repression of the state. That's why we hold rallies in front of the prisons, where the prisoners send us their song requests so that we play their favorite songs. That's why we write letters to the prisons and publish our reports on websites, newspapers and social media.
Show solidarity, organize yourself and come to the courtroom.
Antifascism remains necessary.
