Punkrarxsolidaria joins PAA!

[30/07/25 IG Repost]

We are proud to announce our latest Berlin-based signatory, Punkrarxsolidaria!

Punkrarxsolidaria organises DIY, punk, hardcore, and other events & works with vegan anti-speciesist collective Cocina Impopular.

We believe that their statement above encapsulates a lot of the spirit of what PAA strives for: no matter how ‘small’ or grassroots our individual collectives are, we represent, all together, in federation, the voice of the world’s majority! Thus, every small intervention point is a chance to ride on a line of flight out of the murderous malaise of the everyday into revolutionary transformation!

Berlin, Japan, North America, Europe–PAA will continue to make our scene committed to anti-Zionist values, and leveraging our collective power to advance concrete mutual aid for Palestinians & supporting real-world mobilisation & BDS campaigns. Coming to a town near you!!

Slide 1: A faded kuffiyeh background. Everything is black & white scheme. A diagonal text overlay slanting from left down to the right, ‘Announcing!’Below, two circular logos. On the left, three stick figures with their hands holding up what looks like an abstract sin with rays shooting out and a compass-like arrow below with a circle (A) in the middle.On the right, a fist with a spiked bracelet punching through the apartheid wall & PUNKS AGAINST APARTHEID in stencil style text around the circle.
Slide 2: We are just a group of friends who organise DIY hardcore punk and other solidarity events in Berlin. We support contact between people, collectives and bands wherever possible. We believe that militarism and nationalism are the root causes of racism, classism, sexism, unjustified hierarchies, absurd propaganda, ridiculous patriotism and forced national identities, which impose individual responsibilities in the name of a country.
Slide 3: Militarism and nationalism not only exacerbate an economic system built on imperial and patriarchal structures, they also protect it. In order to justify their existence, they constantly blame ‘others’ for their failures, while feeding a war machine in order to achieve their ridiculous ambitions. Therefore, wherever we stand, we are clearly against militarism, nationalism and ethno-nationalism.
Slide 4: We know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this chauvinistic nonsense is shamelessly carrying out genocide in Palestine. Despite being a bunch of nobodies, we are not afraid to call things by their name. We are not a collective, but we believe in collective action. These cannot include fetishising certain nationalisms or justifying senseless ethnic or social cleansings.
Slide 5: Some groups and people living in Berlin, Germany, as well as the city’s political and institutional propaganda and mainstream media, are willing to justify genocide. We are not, and we never will be. We are also aware of what is happening in so many different places, where people are suffering and dying because of militarism, nationalism and neoliberalism/extractivism. Yes, like in the Congo, Sudan and Haiti, among many others.
Slide 6: Nothing can be justified in the name of the national state, religion, an economic system or any other ridiculous geopolitical power. There’s no punk, no feminism, no antifa, no queer, no collective liberation, no community, no political affinity; nothing if we justify it.
Slide 7: A square logo in black and white with several overlapping stick figures vaguely evoking Da Vinci’s ‘Vitrubian Man’, with a circle (E) and in the upper left and circle (A) in the upper right.A long cartoon logo with PUNKS AGAINST APARTHEID in red and a background of a giant mosh pit, with a punk on the tight with Liberty Spikes giving the finger saying ‘racism ain’t punk.’
