Asylum for conscientious objectors
Dictatorships cannot wage wars without soldiers. That’s why asylum for conscientious objectors and deserters is so important. But contrary to full-throated announcements, the federal government would rather get rid of these people from Russia and Belarus quickly. The federal government has so far only recognized a little less than 100 Russian deserters, conscientious objectors and those fleeing the draft!
Create attention with adbusting
Adbusting, i.e. hijacking advertising showcases, is a very good way to give a political topic space in the public eye. And that's not even forbidden: the Berlin public prosecutor's office believes that opening and posting your own posters is not a punishable offense. We want to demand asylum for conscientious objectors with self-made posters in advertising showcases in public spaces.
Join in?
You and your group would like to take part, but have no experience with adbusting yet? Don't worry, you can learn from us! Because we have the skill share “Bust Bundeswehr advertising!” prepared. It will take place in Berlin from Friday 4th to Sunday 6th December. You can find the exact program here:
Already experience?
Do you already have experience with adbusting? Great, write to usantimil_aktionsnetzwerk@riseup.netThen we can make arrangements together on how the posters will get to you. After the campaign, please send us pictures of the posters in the hijacked advertising showcases in your city. Please take the photos in a horizontal format. Please take pictures so that you can read the slogans. And please do so in front of a building or a street scene that is symbolic of your city. Please also consider whether you don’t want to bust on our “Bundeswehr advertising” skill share!” in Berlin from Friday, December 4th to Sunday, December 6th. Your experience and knowledge is certainly valuable! You can find the exact program here:
Repression?
Yes, adbusting causes trouble. A lot has happened in the last ten years thanks to defensive solidarity work. At that time, the GETZ counterterrorism center dealt with adbusting four times, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution warned of adbusting as a danger to the republic in its annual report for 2018, and in 2017 and 2018 the Berlin cops desperately kicked down the door to anyone and everyone they could associate with adbusting. That has changed: In 2023, the Federal Constitutional Court declared house searches for adbusting illegal. In Berlin, proceedings for adbusting have been discontinued since 2020 if nothing was stolen or broken when hanging up self-produced posters. The Tübingen public order office tried unsuccessfully in 2025 to claim an administrative offense. In Schwerin there was even an acquittal in 2026.
Oldenburg?
But in Oldenburg the public prosecutor's office just conducted a house search against self-printed adbustings. Shitting on verdicts from Karlsruhe is “usual procedure” there, says the public prosecutor’s office. More about this:
Good chances
We think that, given the legal situation, there is a good chance of getting out of trouble in Oldenburg if we then collectively and appropriately defend ourselves against repression. But it is clear: successful protest in a democratic constitutional state initially leads to repression and a lot of work; This must be clear to everyone who gets involved politically in this way. That’s also why we have “Bust Bundeswehr Advertising” at Skillshare!” prepared a focus on “solidarity”.
Quiz question: When does the Skillshare take place? Exactly! In Berlin from Friday 4th to Sunday 6th December. You can find the exact program here:
