So I recently discovered there's an anarchist bookfair happening in Tartu, Estonia. So I made these icons as a way to contribute spreading the news. What do you think?
More info about the bookfair is here: https://riga-anarchist-bookfair.hotglue.me/

Hi! I'm here from all, so not very familiar with anarchist discourse. But as this affects me, being from the baltics, I have to ask: is fighting against (relatively) democratic states reasonable at this time? As long as russia, USA and china exist in their current form, there is no hope for a stateless society to exist without being crushed under the boots of a larger country.
The Palestine protesters in England who destroyed military production infrastructure are ideologically correct, but in the short term their work has a direct positive effect on ruzzia's oppressive behaviour.
What's your take on this? Love the imagery btw.
Many anarchists would disagree with this. Anarchists strive to establish communities/stateless societies that are able to defend themselves against state repression. Many anarchists also believe state organized militaries to not be as effective in actually defending territory against invaders.
While not all examples are anarchist and successful, they all share libertarian ideals and are examples of libertarian communities defending territory against states / authoritarian forces. I think they should provide enough information to imagine an anarchist society defending itself:
