MANIFESTO ON “ALGORITHMIC SABOTAGE”
By the Algorithmic Sabotage Research Group (@asrg)
“To create? No, to destroy, destroy and destroy again, whatever the strength left in these muscles allows. Because destruction is the power that is left. The only thing worth a penny. Everything else will pass and be gone. Only their destruction will last. It’s a paradox with few equivalents. The young and capable of building new worlds, those who for years, on a daily basis, laid the foundations of faith for a better humanity, must now make hasty action, sabotage, destruction, the supreme achievements of life.” — Anonymous Partisan
The Manifesto on “Algorithmic Sabotage” is structured around ten propositions, numbered from 0 to 9, each delineating the underlying principles, strategic approaches, and aesthetic manifestations that constitute the critical concept of “algorithmic sabotage” within the continuously shifting and intricately intersecting contexts of digital culture and information technology. The document seeks not only to advance a robust, methodologically coherent framework—serving as a structural foundation for militant and tactically assertive resistance, agency, and refusal, in conjunction with strategically prefigurative and critically interventionist technopolitical orientations—but also to disseminate radical theoretical perspectives and criticism, emanating from the transformative impetus of insurrectionary desire. The “Manifesto” embodies the uncompromising trajectory of a political theory that persistently and ambidirectionally turns discourse into praxis, firmly asserting its presence within the tumultuous dynamics of contemporary liberation struggles.
