Every day I read articles in international newspapers that have their own views on Greece’s situation and I get the feeling that they don’t really know what they are talking about. They give me the impression that they know the story from the outside and they do not seem to care to search it deeper.
There are some journalists though that make their own research and come up with great articles. I recently read one that starts with the phrase: ‘The situation in Greece may be sad but it is not catastrophic, it is an opportunity.”
These words reminded me of hope. The money power is stronger than ever and capable of causing a disaster to the interests of the public and eventually to human dignity. For a country known for its philosophy of life, and its untiring resistance to multiple forms of oppression it is now a moment of another crisis.
Greek people will not surrender to regimes that others want to impose. They have learned to dance with their hands high and feel like flying on the stars. The demonstration is here. By writing on the walls what they really want to say and hear from others.
By burning banks when they are so angry that they cannot express themselves in any other way other than destroying owned property. The Greeks are so alive, as the ideology of the deadly threat. And even if they have reached the bottom line and suffered, they always had the courage to stand up and keep going.
That is what the Greeks wait for, that is what they think. They say that after a big disaster the sun will come out again, accompanied with a beautiful rainbow, which will make them smile again and feel better. It is obvious that Europe wants to create an example and hit its weakest part. The anger behind it shows hidden intentions. Totalitarianism has been pushed, and the only way to resist is to struggle, persist and be tenacious until the end.
The emotional anger of the Greek people is defused by destroying symbols of oppression, developing a clear anger. They are fighters who refused to sacrifice their lives for the interests of the “Banking Mafia.” In the assemblies of direct democracy, the movement of civil disobedience – which does not want to pay – a new Greece emerges at this time, which rejects the tyranny of the market on behalf of the people.
It has become a matter of self, addressing the absurdity of customer policy, corrupt democracy, the rule of grotesque cynicism of banksters, and the only option is to manage our affairs ourselves. People in Greece suffer no matter what their aegis. The most common conversation is about someone losing their job after many years due to the crisis and graduates looking for any type of job, even unpaid, because they want to feel useful and not isolated and useless.
Migration of the young generation is already increasing. They feel that their own country is making them leave to thrive somewhere else to find opportunities that cannot be provided in Greece right now. Both in Europe and Greece, people want to recover rapidly and eagerly waiting for a better quality of life and less misery lives. The question is: Will ‘they’ let us recover or is it just better for a small country like Greece to be controlled by countries with their own agendas personal benefits?
