A Man Made Hell, To Protect The Parasites.

 

       Prisons are an indictment on any society that claims to be civilised, they are the antithesis of civilisation, and humanity. Across our planet all states hold on to this tool of repression as a bulwark to protect the wealth and power of the established order. The conditions in prisons vary from state to state, some are barbaric in the extreme, some are more subtle in the form of repression they use, but all are there to intimidate, repress and break the human spirit, no matter the method.

       However, does Argentina hold the dubious prize of the worlds most degrading and inhumane prison, a hell-hole beyond imagination. What the following article shows is something that you might think is from some horror movie, but in fact is how this particular state treats its own citizens, here, today in the 21st. century.  Prisons are a man made hell, to protect the parasites.

       Those responsible for incarcerating people in these conditions cease to be human and deserve the wrath of all humanity, this must be brought to an end, and the only way is to bring down the whole stinking system. It is time to enjoy the ecstasy of our righteous anger and bring an end to this barbarity.

This is what these hell-holes protect.

     ------In the bureaucratic vocabulary Penitenciaria Bonaerense Unit No. 1, prison Lisandro Olmos, the term "Sector Isolation Coexistence" is at least a euphemism. "Mailboxes" or "leoneras" is the best known name . There are 22 small rooms of a meter by meter with a pallet of cement and a latrine without ventilation and with a small crack in the door; there is sent to prisoners who are separated from the rest of the population . Prisoners of Olmos can end in one of those rooms, at least in theory, in two ways: in response to a request to be separated from the rest of their fellow prisoners in the pavilion facing a problem, or to receive a punishment. Olmos criminal, as building is over a hundred years. The isolation area is precisely in its catacombs; the "mailboxes" occupy part of subsurface ice .--------

The State, Savagery Heaped On barbarity.

        Prison is an anathema within any society that claims to be a democracy, but isolation within that prison system takes the barbarity to a deeper level. Prison is one of the state’s repressive tools, used to try to break down any resistance to its authority over the people. To lock any animal in isolation is sadistic savagery, however, when a human locks another human in isolation, they have left the realms of humanity, they are the moronic stooges of an inhuman system. In these situations we are reminded of the words of Robert Burns, "Man's inhumanity to man--". As long as prisons stand, freedom is in chains.

Prison letter from anarchist Anna Beniamino – Italy

      Today – Monday 10th October – I decided to start a hunger strike against the isolation that I am being subjected to along with other comrades who are part of this investigation, from the moment of our arrest on 6th September. This isolation has remain unchanged, despite comrades having been transferred to different AS2 sections and the custodial interrogations that have taken place. In solidarity with Alfredo Cospito who is on hunger strike since 3rd October and is being held in isolation in the AS2 section of Ferrara prison.
       I knowingly use the hunger strike as an instrument that expresses a minimal sign of reaction to barbarities that are rooted in captivity and authority.
       As always, I keep anarchism in my heart and mind, hold love and respect for all the untamable comrades outside and inside prison, have rage in my teeth and a smile on my lips.

Anna

Man was made to mourn: A Dirge

  Many and sharp the num'rous ills
Inwoven with our frame!
More pointed still we make ourselves
Regret, remorse, and shame!
And man, whose heav'n-erected face
The smiles of love adorn, –
Man's inhumanity to man
Makes countless thousands mourn!

Robert Burns.
