"Gaza has been a test for our mainstream media. They have failed. They have failed to stand up for their colleagues being murdered abroad. They have failed to treat all lives with equal worth. And they have failed to hold our government accountable for its complicity in crimes against humanity. That is how you normalise a genocide – and to that end, the media have shamefully succeeded.”
Jeremy Corbyn

La conversione in legge del decreto Sicurezza va fermata! - Presidio

Lunedì 26 maggio, dalle 15:00, presso Prefettura di Milano, Largo 11 settembre (corso Monforte)

IL GOVERNO VOTERA’ IL DECRETO SICUREZZA PER TRASFORMARLO IN LEGGE

26 MAGGIO ORE 15 PRESIDIO SOTTO LA PREFETTURA

il 26 maggio nel pomeriggio si voterà alla Camera la conversione in legge del decreto con cui a fine marzo il Governo ha approvato con un colpo di mano la normativa repressiva prevista nell'ex ddl 1660.

Un disegno di legge con cui si va a chiudere il cerchio: da un lato la guerra esterna, la riconversione bellica dell’economia e il massacro sociale che ne deriva come unica prospettiva che le classi dirigenti europee hanno in serbo per noi, dall’altro la guerra interna per mettere a tacere qualsiasi dissenso e opposizione, secondo una logica repressiva di sapore fascista che va a restringere ancora di più gli spazi di agibilità democratica con l’utilizzo indiscriminato del codice penale, l’inasprimento delle pene e l’introduzione di nuove fattispecie di reato.

È evidente che le prove generali per questa ulteriore torsione autoritaria le stanno già mettendo in campo, con la sempre maggiore durezza e frequenza con cui le forze dell’ordine intervengono contro manifestazioni e proteste.

La sicurezza di cui abbiamo bisogno non è quella dei manganelli e della repressione poliziesca ma quella sociale, a partire dalla garanzia del diritto alla casa e di un lavoro dignitoso e ben pagato fino alla messa in sicurezza dei nostri territori che si sgretolano a causa della crisi climatica e della mancanza di una politica ambientale seria che non si fermi al puro greenwashing.

Nel giorno della votazione in aula mobilitiamoci anche sotto la prefettura di Milano: facciamo appello alla partecipazione a tutte le forze politiche, sociali e a singoli cittadini contrari a questa deriva autoritaria, la conversione in legge del decreto sicurezza va fermata!

Presidio ore 15 sotto la Prefettura di Milano largo 11 settembre (corso Monforte)

Questo lo ignoravo:
il 16 maggio 1944 è una data che oggi viene commemorata ogni anno come Giornata Europea della Resistenza #Rom, in memoria dei Rom e dei Sinti che combatterono contro i #fascisti durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale.

La data fu scelta in seguito alla testimonianza di un sopravvissuto all'Olocausto, secondo cui in quel giorno ci fu una rivolta dei Rom detenuti nel campo di concentramento di Auschwitz-Birkenau. stories.workingclasshistory.co…

Grazie a @sabrinaweb71 per la condivisione.

I didn't have much faith in the petition, but then I realized that many phenomena are very much non-linear, especially when you factor in the high comorbidity between ADHD-havers and LGBTQ+ users

apparently, when the deadline is about to hit you, the hyperfocus kicks in and now only 90k out of 1M signatures remain, less than 10%

we're at a point where, if we don't make it, it will be very sad. it's not the same if we don't make it because we're missing three countries and half a million votes... then it's like: sure, whatever. but if we don't make it now, then it's like, fuck, it actually hurts

so come on go sign the thing!
