a constant central message defined by James Debono as "playfully left wing, anti-racist, socially liberal and largely focused on land use issues", providing its members with a counterculture-based sense of identity.

Ideological references shifted between marxism and anarchism, green politics and new left. It also used to be close to the activists of Żminijietna (Voice of the Left), and for a brief period around 2000 it used the premises of the defunct Maltese Communist Party in Strait Street, Valletta. While before 1996 it was openly supportive of the Malta Labour Party, it later switched to closeness to Alternattiva Demokratika, Malta's green party, for whom also worked as recruitment pool. Yet, it also cooperated with other organisations such as Studenti Demokristjani Maltin during the 1996 stipend protests. Its main campaigns have been on land use issues, consistently protesting overdevelopment under any government, and building coalitions with different allies. In terms of political positions, Moviment Graffitti opposed the 1994 Maltese concordat on marriage, called for the decriminalisation of abortion, endorsed Alfred Sant's Labour at the 1996 elections, and in 2000 supported Malta's EU accession bid.
