L’idolatria

index

Paolo Schicchi
Vi è mai successo di assistere alla venuta d’un gran sovrano in una città dove non lo si era mai visto per lo innanzi?
Una folla di babbei si accalca alla stazione parecchie ore avanti l’arrivo annunciato. Dappertutto gente ansiosa che va, viene, corre di qua e di là, si domanda reciprocamente: «È arrivato? – Quando arriva?». Ogni rumore di locomotiva, ogni fischio di vaporiera passa di bocca in bocca, attraversa in ogni senso la città: «È lui! – Non è lui! – Verrà! – Non verrà!».

AntiFrontex 21-23.05.2016

This year more than ever, we need your support to say NO to the European Union’s migration policies and criminal activities of its border control agency, the Frontex.       Closing borders and cutting the wealthy Europe off from the countries of South and East – plundered and kept in poverty – aims at preserving inequalities on both sides. Borders do not only work outwards. Their tightening causes increasing limitation of people’s rights and freedom also here, in Europe. Shifting the “problem” of migration onto countries such as Turkey, ignoring the death of thousands in the Mediterranean, imprisonment of those seeking help and better life in Europe, are directly linked to preserving capitalism as a system, in its most bloodthirsty variant.

An excerpt from a letter from Sean:

Prisons are definitely operating wrong and are creating greater social problems than what they purport to “solve”. But the fact is, the justice and prison systems are not operating to address crime and criminality. Prisons serve racial, economic, and political motives, and the prisons do so quite well. So, any effort to reform the prisons must be based on the false premise that prisons “aren’t working,” when in fact, they are working perfectly. They are keeping minority populations from booming, they are working as a relief valve on the unemployment rate; they are keeping the rabble-rousers off the campuses and out of the factories and tilting the political spectrum to the right.

[Brennero, Italia] “Orgullo de ser anarquista… ¿Quiénes son los violentos?”

“Del río que todo lo arrastra se dice que es violento,
pero nadie llama violento al dique que lo oprime…”

– Bertolt Brecht

El túnel sobre los Alpes en la ciudad italiana de Brenner sirve de paso fronterizo para las personas que circulan entre Italia y Austria. Este sábado pasado unas 500 personas solidarias con las migrantes protagonizaron una batalla campal contra unos 1000 policías antidisturbios armados hasta los dientes a sólo 100 metros de este paso fronterizo. Los falsimedios, en su tergiversación habitual de los enfrentamientos entre manifestantes y policías, destacan la violencia de las primeras, señaladamente de las anarquistas, por lanzar petardos y piedras contra el muro policial. La noticia de estos mentirosos no reporta casi nada del por qué de esta manifestación y sólo intentan criminalizar la solidaridad.
