Born 1904 - Kilifarevo, Bulgaria, died May 28th 1925 - Belovo, Bulgaria.

Born in Kilifarevo, Bulgaria on 14th August 1904, the student-actress Mariola Sirakova belonged to a well-off family. She revolted from an early age against her social background and became an anarchist communist when she went to the Girls High School at Tarnovo in 1919.

She regularly took part in secret anarchist meetings.

She began a relationship with another Bulgarian anarchist, Gueorgui Cheitanov. She associated with other important anarchists like Petar Maznev, Georgi Simeonov Popov, and others. In her frre time, she acted in the Orpheus Theatre Company in Kilifarevo. In 1922-23 she studied in Pleven. She often hid wanted anarchists like Vassil Popov and Valko Shankov

In 1923 a military coup led to the butchery of 35,000 workers and peasants. The armed resistance that followed ended with the bomb attack by the Communist Party on Sofia cathedral which was aimed at the country’s elite. A massive campaign of repression was then unleashed by the fascists and military against the revolutionary movement.

Mariola was arrested by the police, and brutally beaten. In June 1924 she returned to Kilifarevo. She was arrested again, but soon released. She gave support to the Kilifarevo cheta (armed guerilla unit), bringing them food, medicine and clothes and caring for the wounded.

Special police detachments were set up to hunt Cheitanov down. All the guerrillas united into a single detachment, being forced to disperse towards the end of May. Cheitanov and Mariola Sirakova, were caught in an ambush and arrested. They were taken to Belovo railway station and shot with 12 other prisoners on May 28th June 1925.

    Two part post:

    1. I went to a big-ass three-day festival last weekend and it was very dope. I got mega stoned and listened to a some extremely funky African boogie and ate an absolutely transcendent beyondmeat burger. Probably spent way too much money, but it was kind of worth it tbh.
    2. How does one confront real life actual capital I Incels? There’s this one guy that’s mildly acquainted with a friend group of mine since way back when. His life is clearly not going the way he wanted it to go, so he’s fallen into the abyss and basically alienated anyone who tolerated him before. He wasn’t exactly pleasant before either when I’ve met him, but he’s really too far gone now. Most of my other friends severed all ties to the guy, while others “strongly condemn” his opinions and behaviour but are too chickenshit to actually do anything about it. Anyway, there’s that eternally online part of my brain that’s responsible for dunking on libs and chuds that’s telling me it would be like so totally sick and cool to dunk on that fucking fool and maybe plant the seed of the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism in his atrophied brain-stem if I ever run into him again. Obviously he’d just call me a cuck and tell me to listen to Andrew Potate or threaten to beat my ass or whatever, but, you know, still. He’s not a very threatening specimen overall, so I’m not exactly afraid of him. Anyone have any ideas?
