i know Greece is a small country but holy shit it's baffling to me that nobody outside of it is aware of what is going on [ thread ]
- This all started when Nea Democratia ( new democracy, a center-right political party ) won the most recent elections.
Something to remember for later: To gather votes they pandered to neonazi members of Golden Dawn ( a neonazi party that only recently disbanded )

- after that it's all been going downhill. Police brutality is off the charts and nobody seems to care. Half of what happens gets drowned out by the media.
Police will stalk albanian immigrants for things so simple as bringing food to their mothers.

Over-100 person gatherings were recently banned, as a way to drown out protests.
Protests also got banned inbetween November 16th and 19th. November 17th is a national holiday of sorts, celebrating the day we rebelled against fasciscm.

Recently a bill was proposed, its intention being to put cops in universities.
Something to note here - said cops will not report to the university about any suspicious activity but rather to police directly. This is an obvious attempt to tighten the government's chokehold on-

students and to try and drown out any attempts at further protests.
We've been protesting against this for weeks now, and all cops have done is teargas us, and in many cities? Arrest and beat us up.

I wish I could say I have something you guys can do to help.
All I'm begging you to do is not stay silent, please. Don't stay silent about this, if you see this. Spread awareness. Be loud.

context for above: a professor was going to the university when he was beaten up by police. in the video, he asks " why did you beat me up?" the police responds with " we did nothing to you, you got hurt all on your own. "

something which I didn't even know because it was unsurprisingly drowned out: nea demokratia apparently disbanded article 5, which protects LGBT+ people from discrimination.

oh and did i mention that Greece has been largely ruled by the descendants of traitors who betrayed their own people to the Germans during WWII?
i realize i used a dogwhistle for racist frustration against black liberation movements, it was not my intent and i feel bad for coming across that way. its stressful to have people dying here and have it talked about very little
( that being, when i said america garners more media attention)
hate to update this thread, but apparently the headquarters for golden dawn are STILL open. the neonazis are still here, just in the shadows.
