They squatted an abandoned house replacing emptiness and apathy with desires, dreams and experiences of freedom, autonomy, self organisation, confrontation and atack. Taking refuge in alternative music and movies, they engage in acts of destruction and/or self-destruction that challenge authority and social norms in a way that resembles anarchistic behavior, yet is merely anarchic in nature. That anarchism often comes in waves does not minimize its profound impact, as evidenced by the anarchist uprisings during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939), which were among the most overt and sustained manifestations of anarchism in European history.
