Here is a list of stuff we need to keep our occupation going.
Part of our movement is also the the struggle against capitalism. That’s why we are happy if you don’t buy donations but, for example, first look at what you still have at home in a corner that you don’t need anymore. Maybe it is very useful for us! We like to get things brought to us that would otherwise have been thrown away for example (vegan) food from foodsharing collections, from containerising, SoLaWis (Solidarity Farming), or product restocking. You can dumpsterdive, or also ask for old things at various businesses, for example hospitals for old bed sheets or climbing hall for old ropes.
Our society was built on colonial exploitation, and the underlying power structures and structural oppression are still maintained until today through capitalist economics. We are aware that individual consumerism will not bring about revolutionary change, nor will it make one a “better” person. However, it is important to us that we do not buy products that are based on the perpetuation of colonial power structures and that have traveled long distances via the very ways of transportation that we are campaigning against here.
