history

The fun guerrilla goes back to provocative and imaginative political happenings , in particular the West Berlin Commune 1 and its protagonists Fritz Teufel , Dieter Kunzelmann or Rainer Langhans , who attempted as part of the student revolts of the 1968 movement (see also extra-parliamentary opposition and student movement ), to experiment with new, alternative forms of coexistence and joint political action . A later representative was, among other things, the Berlin office for unusual measures .

Originating from the spontaneous left, the fun guerrilla acted in its militancy in a lustful, life-affirming and anti-authoritarian manner. In doing so, they stood out - quite deliberately - from the restrictive manners of the K groups and anti-imperialists and the urban guerrilla concept of the RAF, imported from Uruguay by the Tupamaros , and basically represented more anarchist ideals .

From the spontaneous scene and fun guerrilla, the still active scene of the autonomous or autonomous groups emerged, which are involved in the new social movements , such as the Antifa , the squatter movement , the peace movement or with the opponents of nuclear power .

A late consequence of the fun guerrilla is likely to have been the inclusion of the Shanghai puffer fish agreement in the Hessian coalition agreement of 1985.

In the 21st century, the term was applied to online culture and net activists , especially Anonymous and its spin-off LulzSec .
