In recent years, the capitalist system has entered what might be called a crisis of adaptation. Rare are those who still believe that the system will collapse one day itself, of course. If it passes this crisis successfully (you do not want it!), It is likely that new international arrangements take place, some ruling classes lose power and others, including so-called "emerging "earn. Whichever way the cards will be redistributed, it is certain that we will not win there on exchange. For us, for all the people who were already exploited, dominated, oppressed before the crisis, there is no better future possible in this system. ---- In recent years, Greece has become a favorite playground of the ruling classes. They are experimenting with measures that will then hit the people of other European countries. Far from being immune, France is one of the next countries on the list. Understand the situation in Greece is a challenge for you ? ? s always those who want to overthrow the system that kills us slowly. Since 2010, the country passed under the control of international policy makers, that is to say, the IMF and the European Union, controlled by the major economic and political powers (USA, Japan, Germany, England, France .. .). Under the pretext of lending money, they impose sets of measurements (memorandum) antisocial: layoffs, salary reductions and redistribution (health insurance, pensions, unemployment ...), privatization, tax increases and unequal taxes ( including VAT), increased duration of contributions, labor deregulation ... At a time when Sunday work is being debated in France, Greece has for example to force stores to open on Sunday (and therefore the employee ? e ? s to be available all week for their boss). This austerity is being conducted jointly by the "left" (PASOK, the same kind that our PS) and right (Nea Dimokratia), which have formed over a year a coalition. In Greece, the game is clear: everyone now knows that PASOK has more socialist in name. When we think Samaras (current Head of Government, member of Nea Dimokratia) was fascist in his youth and that PASOK was in these early years, a very party left, we see how far the game can push the electoral absurdity for personal and partisan interests of a small minority of leaders! Therefore, political lines move: while the reformist left is a ghost buried under the current coalition, fascism gaining ground on an anti-racist and Siriza system, the main force of the radical left discourse try to look presentable. While maintaining an anti-austerity line that success, the party takes Tsipras big head since the 2012 elections (27%) thinks the government soon softens and made his speech to win some valuable additional percentages, which enable him to form a government1. In the meantime, while policies play the electoral game and make their account apothecary, the social situation is still deteriorating a little more. 30% unemployment, more than 50% among young people (official figures), drastic wage cuts and unemployment benefits (360 euros / month for a year, for the lucky ones, then it is the street), loss of wages minimum and little protection that existed before. In hospitals, we must bring ourselves the necessary care and drugs for resale on the black market begins to make recipe. In the universities and education, we continue to cut jobs and lower wages. Thus, strikes in the administration of universities have begun since the previous year2. In Athens, the situation is such that, for lack of budget, no new ? e ? the student has been enrolled ? e at the moment and the courts have so far not yet begun. ERT: a window of imagination to a socialized TV Among the many splendor of the puppet government that applies the dream makers of the Troika (EU-IMF) shots, there was the closure of the television and state radio, ERT. June 11 at noon, Samaras made his announcement and evening, black out! But of course it was not counting on the response of journalists, technicians ? not ? s and people who are mobilized ? e ? s and have been live for a few days socialized television, self-managed by the workers themselves ? ? s and user ? e ? s. Rapidly under the influence of journalists PASOK radicalized ? e ? s (after their dismissal, better late than never!), The situation has normalized and the share of support in decision making has decreased then disappeared. If we can criticize the evolution of the struggle (this is the reason why anarchist groups withdrew from the fight), you must still acknowledge the determination of worker ? is ? s television occupying the premises day and night for over five months and are living programs resistance, reports on the struggles and alternatives to capitalism and provide true information and critical investigative work, to serve the people and struggles. This is of course not without pitfalls, especially as very different ideological trends coexist in worker ? is ? s (PASOK radicalized anarchists) and overlapping tensions latent class (no technician ? ? s are clearly more radical and radical journalists, many of whom were placed ? e ? s by PASOK in recent years). Nevertheless, the face of repression and the difficulty of the situation, the unit continues and people continue to fight daily against the state and against those who want to impose their vision. Support worker and ? is ? s fraternize in a hall became place of sociability, exchange and political education and the fight brings joy to those who attend. As said one of the workers to a colleague who asked if Holland had disappeared because they could not see his face on TV: "If Holland knew what we were doing, it would ask for more money! ". Sign that everyone here understands that there is no redress the economic situation but pressing the worker ? is ? s to the last drop. This fight is a challenge in the face of the state. Occupying premises owned, using the equipment of public television to transmit dissenting words, the worker ? ? s to show how the state structure is harmful. Samaras, leader of the government is well aware of and trying to get across to the worker ? ? s struggle for dangerous terrorists. He says about them: "The State will NOT be held hostage to the union" ... So in reality, it is the government and the Troika, defenders of capitalism, who terrorize the majority of the population every day! Moreover, these are the same cops who sent their resume to local Athens. The goal is to install a new public channel (which replaces the radio and three TV channels), although docile, hiring on contract two months old ? do ? s ? e ? s employee ERT , 550 euros / month ... And should be more thank them! Here in Thessaloniki, time to complete this article, we are still waiting their arrival and they prepare but there is no doubt they will soon attempt to silence resistance, as they do everywhere elsewhere. Repression, street violence and elections: the three heads of the fascist monster In this regard, the coming months will also promise anything good. Any left (of the libertarian Siriza) agrees that the state is currently conducting a real war against the anarchist movement. Dozens of our companions (and a few companions) were imprisoned ? e ? s for the last two years, on grounds cans. The city walls are lined tag supports the anarchists who start hunger strikes to protest against their (conditions) incarcerations and support events multiply. The prisons are so full of our comrades when the fascists must spend a few weeks in preventive, they are put into cells and institutions aside, lest the revolutionary imprisoned ? e ? s and their allies ? e ? s not their make the skin! If this can make us smile at first, it should not be forgotten that the repression against squats and social centers intensifies, to the point that most occupations do not host inhabitant ? e ? s sustainable manner, lest new friends find themselves arrested ? e ? s when the police arrived. The rise of fascism thus has three faces: the elections and polls are we rehashing, the street and the state and its armed wing. Since the assassination of Pavlos Fissas, union Piraeus and rapper antifascist, September 18 dernier3, the tension is palpable. Everyone knows that the police and Golden Dawn is not only in collusion, they are often the two uniforms of the same actors. The anti-fascist movement is no mistake when he said: "Beware! Beware! Golden Dawn in uniform! ". So when the end of October, two fascists are slaughtered at the gun in their premises on the outskirts of Athens, many see it as a challenge, especially as nobody claims the action4. If we do not mourn the death of the two nazis, it seems clear that this is a boon for Golden Dawn, who plays the victim and parties, models, and for the state, which promises a "merciless struggle against violence in the country "... As if it were the priority problem in Greece! It promises for the coming weeks of new measures, which are already known recipes: arbitrary arrests, destruction of social centers and anarchist media, increased repression against you ? ? s always those who still dare to fight. Against the atomization of social life: strengthen and coordinate our class, prepare for the future There would be much to say about the social and political situation and two pages are not enough. Far from looking spectacular as the bourgeois media, the crisis is above all lived in the little things of everyday life, in all the little things that are so-called "comfort of life." For example, a pernicious and invisible effects, is the deprivation of coffee: it refuses increasingly out a drink. That may not seem like much but in a society where social life is almost outside the home, this deprivation primarily means social death of the individual. Fortunately, solidarity structures (often political) have emerged in an emergency, to address everyday needs: provide hot meals, clothing, restore power cut, provide medical care and medicines without pay 5 euros franchise. The stakes for revolutionaries today, as time runs out, to strengthen these structures, coordinate from the base and to give back to the rich social movement real political perspectives beyond the wait and electoral illusion driven by Siriza. In this way, it is possible to envisage an effective response at the next spark to come and successful transition to a revolutionary situation, the only real hope for the dominated classes ? e ? s. The lesson we can learn, for France, seems to me a little different. Indeed, our structures for political solidarity are much less developed and influential time in Greece. If our organizational culture is stronger than in the Greek anarchist movement, it is not sufficient to cope effectively, "in the first month," an offensive as Greece has known. So we need at all costs to develop grassroots organizations around actual needs that are emerging in our camp social (housing, food, transportation, working conditions, health ...), which are the pillars of transformation revolutionary social and re-organization of society on libertarian and egalitarian basis, that is to say, freed leaders and profiteers who exploit us. Guillaume group in the Paris region 1. Indeed, the first force in the legislative elections pockets 50 additional seats. It is this twisting the rule of proportional allowing Nea Dimokratia to still maintain power. Siriza in demanding an end but in the meantime, most strategists know that if Siriza wins this election leadership, is going to need that extra push to form a government party. 2. Number Z of Thessaloniki (February 2013) refers to this situation among many others. This is to read! www.zite.fr 3. For more information and explanations on the reasons that could make it a target for Pavlos fascists, you can read an article in Lib?ration, sentimental but much better documented than the rest: http://www.liberation.fr / monde/2013/10/25/grece-aube-doree-contre-enquete-sur-un-assassinat_942403 4. In general, when some spectacular action (local fires, bank robberies and even murder) is produced by a revolutionary group, a statement of claim shall be made public shortly after the anarchist media (Indymedia Athens, for example ). Similarly, when comrades are arrested by the police and tried, they often recognize their actions and declare illegitimate judiciary to judge their actions. Thus, a few months after the murder of Alexis in December 2008, a group called "The Sect of Revolutionaries" claimed the killing in response to a police officer.
