Illegalism is an anarchist philosophy which embraces criminality as a lifestyle. It's the second part of the renowned and enlightened charter: "Be Gay, Do Crime"
This is a place for exchanging tricks & experiences, discussing trends & events, sharing shitposts, and connecting criminality to theory & praxis.
Guidelines
- Be sure to follow the Anarchist Code of Conduct
- Probably try not to incriminate yourself (or others)
- No planning or calls for specific actions
- Make your own debate post if you want to debate the efficacy or ethics of illegalism
- Please consider providing alt texts for images
Rules
- No Lame-Os

Nope. Look up why napoleon³ did it in paris. Same thing.
There's a bit of tye 'moving military shit' thing, but Eisenhower was jniquely positioned to know how trash roads were fpr that. We still use trains today. And we as a culture and government hate trains.
Roads are great when you need to move something only a few miles and every family has a car or cars and the suburbs are getting built out.
It wasn't just for military use, agreed, I just know that was part of it.
Was largely for militsry use, just not in the way you think.
