Expropriation of a supermarket: “Everything is stolen, everything belongs to us”

On Wednesday 3rd of November, dozens of comrades expropriated products from the AB Vassilopoulos supermarket at Labrini district. Some of the comrades were blocking the street outside the supermarket holding a banner, distributing flyers and shouting slogans, while the rest of the group was expropriating the products from within. The products were distributed afterwards at the local public market that takes place each weak nearby the super-market. Police arrived within few minutes and did not manage to locate anyone of the people involved in the action.
The news of the expropriation have not been mentioned in anyone of the controlled mass media. The doctrine of “silence” that they try to perform in order to hide any revolutionary news is obvious. As the comrades that participated in the action mention in the text of the flyer distributed:
” There is always room for patience, tolerance and submission. There is always the chance for each and every one to mind his own business, to look out for his survival, to try to move through the choking reality of our everyday living and to end up at his little nest in the conformance of the drug he prefers.
But there is another way also, where the people of the base stand side by side, against this monstrous system that is controlling our lives and fight for the total overthrown of it and not just demanding better terms of slavery. The path we walked on Wednesday 3d of November expropriating products of the AB supermarket and distributing them to the public market near by.”
