CrimethInc. : French Youth Take the Streets against a Bleak Future — A Report

French Youth Take the Streets against a Bleak Future

Thousands of teenagers have taken the streets of France, clashing with police as they demonstrate against the deplorable conditions in their high schools and a rapidly collapsing future.

Our correspondents in Paris explore the situation in detail.

The unrest among young people in France is a promising sign, shifting attention from the seemingly unstoppable rise of the extreme right to the question of what people can do on a grassroots basis to defend themselves and assert their interests against the state and the capitalists who control it.

The White Whale: A Tale of Toil and Freedom

“What’s the best thing you ever got at a Really Really Free Market?” It was his first time attending one.

“Hmm. Maybe a computer monitor? Someone found a vintage Discharge shirt a couple months ago.” At twenty years old, he had no idea who Discharge was. “Or wait, no—it was a van.”

“A van?!”

“Yeah. We drove it all the way around the United States two and a half times, and even to Mexico and Canada. Every mile we drove, we expected to be its last, but no, it kept right on going.”

“Who would give away a van?” He looked at me in amazement. Then another question occurred to him. “And why did you have to ride around in it?”

“All I can say is—it was a different time.”

How do punks manage to travel internationally, fight the forces of authority, and dedicate their lives to making art without being independently wealthy? In this testimony, two participants in the punk underground describe how they wrested a vehicle from the economy and kept it running through a series of trials and tribulations.

A punk band traveling the world in a free van held together only by duct tape and distortion? It sounds like a whale of a tale, but everything you’re about to read is true times two.

As soon as the attacks occurred on September 11, 2001, we designed this poster and began circulating it. We knew the attacks on the United States didn't come out of nowhere. And as the patriots waved their flags, we knew that it wouldn't be long before there were hundreds of thousands more dead.

Although the wars that followed September 11, 2001 did eventually put Saddam Hussein out of a job—enabling the Islamic State to emerge in his wake—the fact that the Taliban remain in power today underscores the senselessness of the US response.

Compared to the policies of the US government, our statement from September 2001 has aged well.

The chief beneficiaries of the "War on Terror" have been the military-industrial complex and the security industry, both of which are transforming the US into an occupied territory controlled by counterinsurgency strategy.

The war has come home. In 2026, as in 2001, we continue to resist it.

The social order that forces you to sell your time and labor to the highest bidder is squandering your potential, the same way it is grinding cows into hamburger and reducing rainforests to junk mail for the benefit of a few billionaires. Another century like this and our species will be done for.

It is demeaning to be forced to sell away our time and creativity rather than being free to do things that are intrinsically meaningful.

On the scale of the planet, the name for this problem is capitalism. From the vantage point of the individual, the name for it is work.

The social order that forces you to sell your time and labor to the highest bidder is squandering your potential, the same way it is grinding cows into hamburger and reducing rainforests to junk mail for the benefit of a few billionaires. Another century like this and our species will be done for.

Your personal struggle to resist work is a microcosm of our species’ struggle to escape the global feedback loop that is propelling us into oppression, war, and ecological catastrophe.

You deserve the freedom to make the most of your potential as you see fit, to live the life of your choosing rather than toiling so that others may profit.

Abolish work.

The far right has gained so much ground over the past decade for the same reason that data centers, surveillance cameras, and ICE have — billionaires know the only way they can retain power is by pouring billions of dollars into surveillance, policing, and channeling popular rage towards scapegoats.

Now that ICE has deported him, Milo Yiannopoulos is in the news presenting himself as a victim of the same state violence he explicitly called for. It's a good time to revisit this text from 2017 explaining why people mobilize against Milo's efforts to promote fascism: "It’s Not Your Speech, Milo"

On August 26, 2026, the United States government classified the Italian collective Autistici/Inventati as a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist,” citing the collective’s “far-left” politics to justify the designation. We discuss the implications of this step towards totalitarianism.

https://crimethinc.com/noblogs

The US government has designated the Italian collective Autistici/Inventati, which produces the infrastructure of NoBlogs.org, a "Specially Designated Global Terrorist," freezing their assets and prohibiting all transactions with them——citing their "far-left" politics and the fact that they have provided services to "anti-fascist" groups for justification.

Autistici/Inventati is an activist-oriented tech project that offers encrypted communications tools, email, web hosting, secure chat, and video conferencing platforms for users who prefer to stay off corporate grids.

This is what the US government is shutting down as "terrorism."

Today marks eight years since anarchists and students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill tore down the Confederate monument Silent Sam, defying a state law prohibiting the removal of racist statues. Don't wait on the authorities to address injustice. Direct action works.

The toppling of monuments to slavery in Durham and Chapel Hill in 2017 and 2018 was, in part, a response to the fascist "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, during which a neo-Nazi murdered Heather Heyer. 

Protesters in Durham and Chapel Hill demonstrated a tactic that spread widely during the George Floyd uprising of 2020, when people toppled scores of racist statues.

CrimethInc. : You Are Under Surveillance 2026 : A Sticker

As the movement against Flock cameras gathers momentum, we have reprinted a sticker attacking surveillance.

Flock is not the only surveillance company, and cameras are not the only form of surveillance. There are many other corporations waiting to fill the role that Flock cameras are playing, and many other means by which those who aim to dominate us seek to monitor and control our activities. It is good to compel local governments to cancel Flock contracts or directly disable Flock cameras, but the movement against Flock must become a movement against all of the interlocking structures of domination or it will only function as a pressure valve as those structures tighten their grip on our lives.

Put these up everywhere to identify the root of the problem. 🏴

In January 2026, the owner of the Minneapolis café Modern Times announced that the café would suspend all prices and operate exclusively on donations. Here, we examine the successes and shortfalls of this experiment in building economic dual power and addressing informal forms of racial segregation.

Today, it has been nine years since anarchists and other anti-fascists converged in Charlottesville, Virginia to oppose the “Unite the Right” rally, an effort to establish a fascist street movement. Today, many of these fascists are working for ICE. The fight continues.

It keeps getting hotter. Forest fires are spreading, people are dying in heat waves—but the millionaires and billionaires who control most of the wealth in our society keep digging us deeper into this disaster. They are murdering the future. Don't let them get away with it.

Raoul Vaneigem—Situationist, author, and lifelong aspiring revolutionary—has passed away at the age of 92.

"Anyone who talks about revolution and class struggle without referring explicitly to everyday life—without grasping what is subversive about love and positive in the refusal of constraints—has a corpse in his mouth."

"Let ten people meet who are resolved on the lightning of violence rather than the long agony of survival; from this moment, despair ends and tactics begin."

—The Revolution of Everyday Life

Raoul Vaneigem in the year 1960.

Yes, that's the famously crabby Guy Debord playing maracas as Raoul Vaneigem plays the drum above him.
