Zwischendurch gab es die GegenDieLangeweile auch auf Papier. Aber da es ein krasser Arbeitsaufwand war und es auch kaum Feedback darauf gab, haben wir dieses Projekt wieder eingestellt.

Warm Beer Cold Women – An Anti-romantic Manifesto
Input and Discussion – will be in english, german whisper translation possible if needed
There will be a short input and presentation of the topics and ideas behind the text so you can also join if you did not read the whole text!
On this occasion we will discuss the text Warm Beer Cold Women – Anti-romantic Manifesto by the queer-anarchist group Good Night Macho Pride from Zagreb. The group was founded for the purpose of building accountability in punk circles around the issue of gender based violence. The text was published on the occasion of a punk event celebrating Valentine’s Day and it deals with the connection of the modern ideology of romantic love with violence against woman and queer people.
While workers working in the public sphere are disciplined by bosses, the police, unions and various institutions, workers in the private sphere are firstly disciplined by the husband / partner, and only secondly by the state. The reality of romantic relationships is the expectation of a certain kind of labor, the labor of care – emotional, sexual and housework. If people coded as feminine fail at this tasks, they can expect all kinds of emotional manipulations, threats and ultimately violence. The ideology of romantic love serves to reinforce heteronormative gender and bodily expectations, and as such does not only affect heterosexual couples, but also queer, trans and intersex people. We will discuss possibilities of different kinds of relations – ones that are based on friendship and comradery, that are not defined by the laws of the market, the rhythm of labour, imposed feelings of guilt and duty, psychological and physical violence, that are not commensurable and calculated. Relations that are the only thing that is authentically ours in a world colonized by the market and the spectacle.

Politbeisl: Textdiskussion: A Call against Arms! w/ Antipolitika
Antipolitika is an informal network of friends and comrades from the Balkans and beyond, that produces a thematic journal. So far we have published three issues: on the subject of war, Yugoslavia and nationalism.
The participants of the Balkan Anarchist Bookfair who came to Prishtina this year from 29 countries, spanning from Chile to Azerbaijan, called for the first week of October to be a transnational week of action against militarism and nationalism. For this occasion, on the 3rd of November, we will present and discuss the text “A Call Against Arms – Systemic Drivers of the War(s) and an Autonomous, Anticapitalist Anti-war Position”, which we have written in May this year. We call for a struggle against capitalist social relations, together with movements against racism, patriarchy, environmental destruction, militarism and in defence of the commons, with war resisters and deserters from the various war fronts, with feminists, migrants, precarious workers and environmental activists, a struggle that will create an autonomous anti-war movement against the capitalist machine of death and despair.
Talk will be in english, german whisper translation is possible if needed.
