Four years of brutal management ; half of the permanent employees who make their aprons ; 
three months of strike to say the ras the bowl ... Few conflicts will have so much 
underlined the contradictions in which can impregnate a left-wing employers yet attached 
to his humanist and virtuous image. ---- " When there is turnover in a box, people 
burn-out, conventional breaks that are linked, it is not a coincidence. There is a 
pathogen management. When the hierarchy seeks to release the employees one by one to 
replace them with others supposedly more loyal, it becomes a strategy. "It is Sophie 
Lopez, militant CGT, who thus expresses itself on December 16th at the wandering Word, in 
Montreuil, the day after the act V of the yellow vests. A day of joint solidarity brought 
together the strikers at the Park Hyatt Hotel in Paris-Vendôme and those at the Théâtre de 
la Commune in Aubervilliers (93). Concert of support, sale of African specialties, 
presence of yellow vests and CGT-Spectacle, speaking ... The opportunity to tell three 
months of an eloquent conflict on employers who " justify the abuse in the name of Art and 
managerial brutality by Beauty ", to quote the sardonic form of the academic Olivier 
Neveux, in support of the strikers [1].

The common imaginary combines public theater with unctuous words - culture, sharing, 
miscegenation, creation - and warm, muffled spaces, bathed in a more teleramesque 
atmosphere than class struggle. Patatras: the case of the theater of the Commune has 
brutally dropped the scene and revealed backstage for the least sordid.

A pseudo-participatory trap
It all began in January 2014 with the arrival of Marie-José Malis National Dramatic Center 
(CDN). At first, this committed artist seduces the employees by announcing a dynamic 
project of opening the theater and a new functioning, democratic and horizontal. After a 
few months, however, the disenchantment is complete. The few organized " transversal " 
meetings have turned out to be a pseudo-participatory trap: the word is free there only 
when it goes in the direction of a direction that appears in fact calculating and 
authoritarian. " In hindsight," says a CGT union member, "these" cross-sectional "meetings 
were mainly used to identify people deemed" incompatible "with the project. "

And incompatible people must be eliminated. As the " CDN-Leaks " will later reveal ( see 
below ), one can suspect a disguised dismissal plan, which involves fleeing employees one 
after the other. The strategy of the hierarchy is to attack them on the quality of their 
work without ever telling them exactly what is wrong. To ask them for activity reports, 
justifications, to publicly humiliate the " bad elements ", to invade their daily 
reporting, Google agendas, comminatory mails ... Even a protected employee (RQTH) is a 
victim. The public relations department is particularly targeted. " I, the strong heads, I 
mate them " Asserts Malis to an employee of this service who, exhausted by this war of 
nerves, will eventually make his apron.

Between January 2014 and September 2018, out of 23 permanent employees, 12 (two-thirds of 
whom are women) are thus breaking off conventionally. In their place are hired people 
deemed " reliable ". Not always successful elsewhere. Some quickly distance themselves 
from management. But others are completely in his game and, little by little, a gap is 
growing between the Legitimists (mostly recent.es hired) and the protesters (mostly in 
office for a long time) whose number is reduced from month to month .

An "  a-union  " list guided by the management
The year of the professional elections will be that of the open crisis. Harassment gets 
worse ; we come to sanctions, insults, threats of dismissal. In March 2018, the delegate 
CGT burns out and finds herself on sick leave. In the following weeks, three other 
colleagues are arrested in their turn, for more or less long periods In June, a list " 
a-union " remote control by management is against the CGT. Each one wins 2 seats on the 
social and economic committee.

A hoax of support, realized by a photoshopeuse solidarity of the strike. Click to enlarge
In July, 11 of the theater's 18 employees send an alert letter to the Ministry of Culture. 
The Rue de Valois does not answer them but - elegance - transmits the mail to Malis with 
the names of the signatories, exposing them to reprisals. Back to the wall, some of the 
employees finally decided to stop working to get the freeze on restructuring underway, the 
end of the harassment and a social audit. Started on September 20, the strike will last 
for ninety-three days, and give rise to an intense battle of communication.

On one side the direction plays offended virtue. How could she be tyrannical, she who has 
set up a remarkable project, the School of Acts, helping the insertion of dozens of 
migrants ? [2]It is in fact the CGT which, by corporatism, obstruction ! Some thirty 
members of the management, executives and associated artists co-sign an anti-strike 
statement, and even hang on the stage a poetically signed banner " Employees who stayed at 
work in this innovative place, proud and happy with the beauty of their project ". " 
Beauty " and " magic "Regularly return in the prose of rare artists and intellectuals who 
stand in solidarity with the management Malis [3].

The most famous is the world-class maoist Alain Badiou, whose theater hosts conferences. 
In a memorable pamphlet , he denounces a " plot " hatched by a " junk trade unionism" !

" Bad You ": former guru of the UCF-ml, an esoteric Maoist sect, the philosopher Alain 
Badiou made theater of the Commune his headquarters. The strikers did not fail to mock his 
unwavering support for the enlightened leadership of the Party, sorry, theater ...
Opposite, the employees in struggle know that the balance of power is uncertain - 10 on 
strike the first day, then 7 until the end, including 3 on sick leave - but they and they 
mobilize all their resources. The most important of which is the unpacking of management 
practices. The press relays [4], the scandal swells. Supports (NPA, LFI, PCF, Solidaires) 
arrive.

Nearly 180 personalities from the world of entertainment co-sign a forum claiming that " 
no end, no idea - no matter how big and generous - can justify domination and social 
contempt ". The strike committee's Facebook page soon exceeds 1,500 subscribers. And as 
the audience of the hall falls, the indignant public rushes to the support gatherings. 
Philippe Martinez, the Secretary General of the CGT, took the microphone to remind that " 
the cultural exception is not worth social exception ".Bridges are thrown with the 
employees of the culture of Grenoble, Bethune or La Rochelle, who have endured similar 
situations. Links are forged with the Park Hyatt's housekeepers, who are on strike almost 
at the same time.

Solidarity between the strikers of the Théâtre de la Commune and the Park Hyatt Hotel on 
December 20, 2018.
All this hurts. Management refuses any dialogue first. Then, as her credit collapses, she 
gives ground. But it will take a total of 10 negotiating sessions, including the last 
under the aegis of the Drac, so that it resolves to sign a post-conflict agreement, 
December 21. " CDN-Leaks " will have helped a lot.

Resumption and retaliation
On January 3, their main requirements being met, the employees returned to work ... with 
some apprehension. The reprisals against the ex-strikers, in fact, did not take long. " 
Ten days after the recovery, explains Sophie Lopez, two former strikers were summoned for 
a" reframing ". One, elected staff, was accused of "insubordination". Discouraged by the 
restart of the harassment, the second announced that she would leave the establishment 
soon ... " A hard blow.

What will the reaction of antigrévistes ? Some recent recruits, who did not know the 
history of events before 2018, and preferred to follow the lead rather than hear the 
unionists, were destabilized by the events. Left employers will not take it to paradise. 
The networks of solidarity established by the employees in struggle are for the moment put 
to sleep. They do not disappear.

Attendance at the interpro strike day of 9 October 2018.

THE NETWORK OF A DISMISSAL PLAN DISMISSED
The " CDN-leaks " disclosed at the end of 2018 speak volumes about the mental universe of 
former committed artists promoted to patron of cultural institutions.

It is a devastating verbatim that, undeniably, will have finished undermining the credit 
of the management of the National Dramatic Center (CDN) of Aubervilliers. We are already 
in the fourteenth week of the strike when, on December 7, 2018, Jef Klak magazine 
publishes the " CDN-leaks " as part of an investigation by Jean-Marie Mignon and Michel 
Demoor, " Tout va bien au théâtre de the Commune " .

This is the transcript of a private interview, in April 2015, between Marie-José Malis and 
six of his counterparts, where is openly mentioned a strategy of shock to clean the CDN. 
Stanislas Nordey, Strasbourg: " If we do not speak wood, what we would all like is to be 
able to make a massive redundancy plan. In truth. The problem is that we do not program 
for a season ... It can be done. " Marie-Jo Malis abounds: " Say a redundancy plan, I 
agree.[...]Yes, I'm talking about layoffs.[...]Why do we run the premises if we can not 
have an idea of what should be the hiring, the contract of employment, the constitution of 
a team that serves an artistic adventure ? "

But how to do with " the stories of collective agreements ," sadly Nicolas Roux, 
Montpellier, who are " a real problem ." " That block the theater ", adds Nordey, who 
would like that this fed up is relayed by " a sounding board as the Syndeac ", the 
employers' union sector. That's good, Marie-Jo Malis is just president of Syndeac. And 
Nordey to get carried away: " You in Montpellier, you have four people who make you shit 
and that you would like to replace. You, Marie-José, you have five that you would like to 
replace.[...]Well I tell you, you need a strong act and then you do half a season next 
year and then you fire and then you hire the people you want ! "

A redundancy plan, alas, it is expensive, and it may be a half-season. But we can work 
around the problem. The employers have perfectly integrated the profitable use they can 
make of the conventional break. This procedure, created in 2008, is less expensive than 
dismissal, and employees are more willing to consent because, unlike a resignation pure 
and simple, it gives them the right to unemployment benefits. Someone who experiences 
moral harassment often sees the conventional break as a deliverance. It is probably such a 
strategy that is deployed at the Théâtre de la Commune in Aubervilliers. GD

The entirety of " CDN-Leaks " (31 pages) is available on Jefklak.org . Marie-José Malis 
confirmed the authenticity of the document in La Lettre du spectacle, January 4, 2019.

In particular, in Greece, fascism has an additional weapon called Macedonian, which was 
created due to the special historical conditions of the civil war and the shame campaign 
of the early 90s. This particularity does not change in its essence. As everywhere, here 
the fascists and nationalists in the name of the nation are the gravesites of the planet 
and of humanity. They are even more frightened than the fascists of the 30s and much more 
dangerous. Unlike the 30, the struggle to crush them is now interwoven with the struggle 
to save the planet. ---- The Macedonian with a global perspective and a historical 
dimension ---- The following text is an attempt to approach the Macedonian with a global 
perspective and a historical dimension linked to the urgent problems of today. It is 
precisely because the Macedonian has functioned for a long time in this country as a 
vehicle of generalized collective absurdity and blind hatred, as an obsessive distraction 
from real problems and as the incubator of local fascism. Such a historical and global 
approach is necessary for its analysis.

Lately we have literally the theater of the absurd. There comes an agreement that imposes 
on a small neighboring people the change of name and of his constitution, obliges him to 
stop talking about the minorities that are outside his borders and reaches the absolute 
humiliating point of changing street names and statues descriptions of.

An agreement is the definition of subordination for the receiving country. An agreement 
that constitutes a particular form of imperialism that has the ultimate claim to dictate a 
name, constitution and inscriptions of statues in the country exercising its imperialism.

An agreement that if they came upside down, with Greece in the position of the Republic of 
Macedonia, must accept these terms, it would stir up a fatal and inevitable rebellion or 
even a revolution.

And here comes a marvelous paradox. A Greek Prime Minister has forcibly brought an 
aggressive and humiliating agreement against a small people who, from the start of his 
independent state, are in a constant fear of division and destabilization by the four 
largest states bordered by the reaction of Canal, ND, Golden DAY, KKE, Leventis, Mickey 
and bad encounter, is to talk about betrayal and disrespect for our ancestors!

In the land of imagination they present this agreement as a defeat for Greece and an 
inexorable retreat to the other side, while the Macedonians (as they are recognized by 
billions of our fellow human beings and 131 states) abstained from the referendum that 
would validate it because they knew very well how humiliating they are for their country.

What has happened; Why, for an issue that looks ridiculous and absurd across the globe, 
here is it treated as something serious and sensible and so hateful and aggressive?

How and why did the New Greeks acquire such and such a deep hatred for a small neighboring 
people who have never done anything to them and can not in themselves be able to threaten 
them but to be threatened by them?

When and how did logic and humanity disappear into a large set of Greeks to hysterically 
reverse reality and express the most vulgar form of fascism? What do we have to deal with 
when we talk in Greece about the Macedonian? (Where in their inverted politically correct 
world is presented as 'Skopje')

How and why people of Thessaloniki and Northern Greece who are pissing for Athens and who 
wholeheartedly hate their hydrocephalous state fall into ridiculous hypocrisy to claim to 
be called neighbors with the name of their capital? How and why do people from Asia Minor 
and Pontus deny the origin of their ancestors and are presented as descendants of ancient 
Macedonians with exclusive rights to use the term Macedonia?

How and why do they treat as traitors those who in this country express self-evident 
truths that are universally accepted on the rest of the planet? How and why was the murder 
of ancient, medieval and modern history allowed in the places that geographically or 
politically are today called Macedonia and include the Greek region of Macedonia, 
Macedonia as an independent state and a part of Bulgaria?

Let's not talk much about ancient history. No nationalist interest at all ...

The key to the answer is not in ancient history but in modern. This does not mean that the 
study of the ancient Greek world has no significance. The ancient Greek world with its 
achievements and contradictions, its light and darkness is the subject of a study of the 
world's intellectuals, and thousands of books around it are published each year.

There is no hiding of the events that highlight the deep hatred of the ancient Greeks for 
the Macedonian dynasties, the successive uprisings and wars between them, and the active 
role of the ancient Greeks to invite the Romans to repudiate the Macedonian yoke. There it 
is not concealed that Alexander was a psychopathic maniac killer who enjoyed genocidal 
massacres in Greek and non-cities like Thebes and Persepolis when he did not murder his 
relatives and friends and that many more ancient Greeks fought against him than for him.

The Modern Greek as the practical denial of the ancient Greek

When a newcomer comes with a great audacity to support his hysteria for the Macedonian 
citing ancient history, he is exposed himself as someone who has no real relationship and 
continuity with that ancient people.

For its part, this is logical and consistent with historical truth. As a people, the New 
Greeks acquired a borrowed national identity during the period of European enlightenment, 
exploiting the fact that they lived in the same lands as what was once ancient Greece at a 
time when the European intellect unequivocally discovered the cultural wealth of ancient 
Greece and had the great craving to see in these places a state called Greece.

Being the New Greeks a prototype amalgam of Arvanites, Vlachs, Karagounides, Slavs, 
Venetians, Catalans, Goths, and who knows what other peoples have passed from here along 
with any remaining ancient Greeks who escaped from the Christian massacres, the sweeping 
catacombs of the Slavs and the mass epidemics, it is perfectly understandable that they 
want to conceal their true history and blame a neighboring people for the same things they 
have done. The distortion of history and the appropriation of cultural heritage that does 
not belong to them.

The state that set them up has been the result of a foreign intervention of great powers 
with donor kings and state bureaucracy. The language they spoke was classed as woolly and 
alien to ancient Greek while the official language more relevant to ancient Greek was a 
language that was unable to speak but to understand.

The nation as a construction and imaginary community, product of the modern world.

The fact that modern Greeks have a borrowed national identity is not, of course, something 
that is a historical exception. Every national identity is a construction based on myths 
and distortions, criminalizing crimes and over-displaying events that are considered 
milestones. This is the same whether we are talking about the Greek, the Russian or the 
French nation. It could not be different when the very notion of the nation is the product 
of modern history, the era of rising capitalism and the discovery of typography.

Here I will not go into detail on how the concept of the nation starting as something 
progressive that unified feudalist populations and gave them universal rights with the 
French revolution, ended up creating competitive militarism and world wars.

It remains a fact that the national identity remains strong for a large part of the 
population, because first of all it has been nurtured since its childhood, and it has been 
channeled into formal state education, but also because it corresponds to a deep human 
need to belong to a whole. Being a fantasy community that magically unites people who have 
nothing in common with each other and artificially separates people who are in the same 
fate, the nation is the shelter of people who can not find anything better to feel that 
they are bigger than themselves . This does not change the fact that the concept of the 
nation is a ridiculous anachronism based on lies, artificial borders, oppressive states, 
and ready-to-use armies.

The planet is one, our kind is one, the era is global

Whether it likes or does not like the contemporary nationalists who are increasingly 
cognitively and emotionally resembling unrelenting hooligans of football teams, our era is 
more global than ever. After centuries of world capitalism, two world wars and 70 years 
after the founding of the UN, our world is more unified than ever. It has global means of 
transport and communication, and a web that has eradicated the artificial differences 
between the peoples.

For the sake of good and for our world, we are characterized by common global factors, 
whether these are called global science and technology, or global sports events, or global 
religions, philosophies and ideologies, or global resistance movements. For the first time 
in the majority he lives in cities and every year travels billions to visit other countries.

This acknowledgment of today's reality is baptized by some who consider the national 
gentleman as the supreme and most sacred identity, ethnicity. For us, our current debt in 
an increasingly globalized world is to bet behind the nations where we accidentally joined 
our birth and devote our social life to defending them. Their emotional attachment to this 
imaginary community is so great that they can not see anything beyond their national parrots.

But if this attachment in the past brought wars and minority persecutions, oppression of 
class movements and the birth of fascism, the present is even more disastrous for the 
species we belong to. Why today globalization is not just about science and sports, the 
arts and the trade. It concerns more dramatically a series of problems that are in their 
nature world-wide and require a global response, problems that have come from a global 
civilization that remains in the foundations of class, profit and predator.

Nationalism as a distraction and a worsening of unresolved global problems

We live in the century that has to face not one but at least three huge global problems 
requiring an immediate response. The first is the problem of anthropogenic climate change. 
The activities of the meat and fossil fuel industries have led to a huge increase in 
carbon dioxide and methane emissions, leading to massive deforestation, groundwater and 
ocean poisoning, and mass extinction. The consequences are devastating not only for the 
human species but for the whole ecosystem and for their reversal, a structural change in 
the production and consumption system is required.

The second problem is the emergence of a new wave of automation and artificial 
intelligence that threatens to make unnecessary parts of the world's workforce 
unnecessary, and on the other hand to set up a massive monitoring and surveillance system 
that comes from the most daunting pages of novels of dystopia. The third problem is the 
renewed threat of a generalized nuclear warfare as it is written with new military 
antagonisms between the US, China, and Russia.

These three existential problems co-exist alongside the threat of a new global economic 
crisis, widespread economic inequalities, an unreasonable global debt, and a constant 
attack on labor rights. Humanity, and with it the whole ecosystem, is at a crossroads. Or 
it will act directly to confront these global existential dangers, building another global 
society of different values and ecosystem relation, or being seduced into an obsession 
with obsessively clinging to ridiculous national costumes, artificial separations, and 
absurd distractions.

Nationalism, then, is not simply devastating. It threatens our species and the ecosystem 
in a way that was unthinkable just a century ago. But that way seems to be choosing a 
range of countries from Brazil and Hungary to India and the US itself. Trab proudly 
declared that he is a nationalist and Duarte proudly is a fascist. At a time when we need 
international cooperation more than ever, an important part of the world ruling class and 
its intellectuals is calling for a return to national states and their competition and the 
proclamation of migrants and refugees as their basic problem. a previous wave of 
nationalisms led us to two world wars, today threatens to leave us without a viable planet.

The repudiation of nationalism must be done in each country separately, but also with a 
global co-operative movement, it must be done from below and through groups and 
communities that promote the values of solidarity and mutual assistance. The outcome of 
the battle remains uncertain. The biggest problem is the pressure of historical time and 
not the available forces. We live at a time when half the population considers themselves 
a citizen of the world.

For the first time, beside the reborn nationalism and the brother of religious 
obscurantism, there are billions of our fellow humans who are able to see the obvious, 
that they are parts of the same species in a single ecosystem. Many of them make the leap 
not only to reject the disastrous fairy tale of nationalism but also to see the rest of it 
as something worthy of them. Conspiracy, the ideology that arbitrarily and arrogantly 
degrades the other species as inferior and suitable only for abuse and mass slaughter, is 
being challenged for the first time by more and more people.

If our age is able to raise our consciousness so high, it should also be able to cope with 
its murderous ideological trash like nationalism and fascism. This is our great hope. With 
this world perspective, we are returning to the special issue of Macedonian.

A brief historical review of the Macedonian in modern times.

In other Western countries, the issue that nourishes the nationalities there is the 
non-Ottoman refugees coming from war zones, but here the Macedonian is the main issue with 
which Greek nationalism and fascism are fed. Why is this odd phenomenon happening?

Just a century ago, the area called Macedonia was a tangled collage of peoples with the 
New Greeks being a minority. Bulgarians, Slav-Macedonians, Jews and Turks dominated the 
population, while their involvement was very widespread. How did we come from the 
historical point where the Neo-Greeks are a minority in Macedonia to claim the exclusive 
rights of use of the term with utter absolute purity? The answer lies in the unfolding of 
the violent history that followed.

The Asia Minor Disaster brought about the exchange of populations between Turkey and 
Greece, the Second World War brought about the extinction of the Jews of Thessaloniki and 
the civilian violent uprooting of the Slav-Macedonians. During the civil war the first 
obsession with the Macedonian was cultivated. For the fascist right it was the privileged 
field to present the KKE as a treacherous since many KKE fighters were Macedonians.

The first cries about the sell-out of Macedonia came out here from a wealthy fascist who 
only a few years ago had no problem with the concession of Macedonia to the Bulgarians 
from Nazi Germany. Even so the Greek right recognized Yugoslavia and with it the 
Macedonian democracy that was part of it. The Macedonian retreated as a key issue for 
Greek nationalism beyond its most extreme fascist wing.

He returned to the early 1990s with an unprecedented hysteria and aggression. Then the 
Macedonian democracy had been split from Yugoslavia, which was in an irrevocable 
dissolution route. Then the Greek ruling class headed by Mitsotakis decided to bring the 
Macedonian to the highest point by unleashing a wave of mass propaganda that he had not 
resurfaced in the modern history of this place. On a daily basis and with targeted 
propaganda of channelists, radio, newspapers, magazines, with successive lectures in 
schools and squares, and with the organization of the highest mass rallies where the most 
insidious psychological violence took place in order for the population to take part,

Brainwashing can be spoken by those who have been exposed to it without succumbing to its 
influence. The rest will only remember the unity of all parties except the then Communist 
Party, the rallies of hundreds of thousands and one million in Thessaloniki and general 
peripaichtiki depreciation for a new people who learned that said Skopje and wants to 
steal his story.

The few who have not succumbed, we are horrified to remember the first appearance of the 
golden dawn in mass rallies, the imperialist slogan "The solution is one, the border with 
Serbia", the beatings and the arrests of anarchist teenagers who had the courage to make a 
proclamation called Alexandros Shthtis, the prohibition of left books with a different 
view of the Macedonian, and the prosecution of left-wing organizations that circulated 
them, the appearance of Plevris in schools as an expert on the Macedonian and the 
atmosphere of the generalized hate absurd.

The reason why the Greek ruling class, together with its paid intellectuals, then decided 
to make its Macedonian central theme in the most hysterical and aggressive way is double. 
On the one hand, there was, for a short time, the prospect of splitting this small state 
in co-operation with Milosevic's nationalism. So the population had to be prepared for an 
overt aggressive war, and that explains brainwashing that did not have the same. On the 
other hand, the period of the early 1990s was characterized by an unexpected renaissance 
of the student and workers movement against Mitsotakis' neoliberalism, unique to the 
world's current circumstances, and there was a counterbalance to direct the social 
reactions elsewhere.

In the end, and when Milosevic became irrefutably the pariah of the international 
community, even Mitsotakis himself realized that he had unleashed a monster of which he 
had lost control and tried to gather it. But it was too late. Hysteria for the Macedonian 
had formed a people who were ready to manipulate with the most monstrous lies, to hate and 
despise neighboring peoples for the most absurd reasons. Worse yet, it has shaped a people 
with the most arrogant arrogant claim to dictate to other peoples how to say what symbols 
to use.

Where are we now?

We are coming to this day where once again canalists and parties, priests and evil-minded 
intellectuals are trying to resurrect the campaign of shame of 90. It is in principle 
encouraging that this time their campaign can not even touch the levels of mass and 
totalitarianism of its campaign.

Despite the provocative channel abantisation, massive use of Facebook and the pan-Hellenic 
mobilization being orchestrated by majestic, fascist and mafia entrepreneurs, their 
gatherings reach tens of thousands not hundreds of thousands. This time there is a 
contradiction in a way and on a scale that was unthinkable in the 90s. Their big tale can 
not convince and inspire like 25 years ago.

Even so the Macedonian continues to be the joy of the New Greek fascist. The view that the 
Prespa agreement is disgraceful for exactly the opposite of the reasons invoked by 
sprinkled macedonos and that it is unacceptable to force a people to say and see 
themselves is lost in the noise of political irrationality that sees in such an aggressive 
and humiliating agreement to another people, a national sellout.

Here, the nationalists have lowered the level of debate so much that they managed to make 
Tsipras appear a model of political rationality and sobriety. The attitude of the KKE, 
contrary to its position in the 1990s, and the other patriotic left is obscene. Rejecting 
their story and the memory of their assassinated fighters, they are talking about the 
irredentism of the Skopje. Konstantopoulos adopts the far-right request for a referendum 
as if it is ever possible for a people to decide by referendum on the name of another people!

All this, however, is in jeopardy of the ND mutation in a pure far-right party. The Party 
of Entrepreneurs and Housewives has reached the point of adopting as a hero a type of 
underworld that wanted to make an armed struggle to change borders in the Balkans, to 
cover goldsmiths' attacks in the parliament by attributing them to anarchists and to 
incite nationalistic occupations in schools.

Fascism blooms in conditions of political absurdity, in artificial separations and in 
blind hatred and ND has been set up in collaboration with some channelists to become its 
main sponsor. With the Macedonian axis, the political scene has been redesigned in the 
most dramatic way to the right, with Tsipras now expressing the center and southwest to 
the far right. It is terrible that in a parliament that has Leventis as the goldsmiths 
there is not even an internationalist voice that would be self-explanatory.

Conclusion and some final thoughts with an emphasis on global problems

The Macedonian, with a global perspective and a historical dimension, is emerging as what 
it really is: a futile story that nourishes nationalism and fascism, which in turn wants 
to distract us from real and urgent global problems that threaten its own viability planet.

While our historical time is ruthlessly pressing for a liberating movement to act locally 
and think globally and which will redefine our relationship with ecosystem, production and 
consumption, technology and our own values, nightmares come the bourgeois of nationalism 
to concern us with its blindly absurd hatred, its outrageous phobias and its aggressive 
aggression.

It is now clear that the idea of the nation as it exists in the fascist mentality is only 
a trick to pass the views common to all the fascists in the world. What are these views?

Creation of exiled victims for real social problems, hatred and contempt for evaded 
immigrants and refugees, misogyny and homophobia, belief in fhearians and magical thoughts 
that subordination to them will solve our problems, the vision of a state based on state 
repression and torture , stigmatization of entire groups based on religion or its absence, 
struggle for a planet that has everywhere walls and barbed wire, fantasies about a 
degenerated and outdated national community they need their massive violent movement to 
regain their vitality and consistency, faith in racist ideas that give superiority to 
their race, dreams of wars that will make the nation's vital space larger.

What is new to today's fascism is its coexistence with nuclear weapons and new emerging 
artificial intelligence technology, and especially its refusal to accept destructive 
climate change by treating it as a sort of conspiracy that promotes globalization and the 
leveling of nations. They deny climate change despite warnings from scientists, because 
they can not accept that there are global problems that do not fit into national wrestlers.

Throwing on Trab, for whom the golden dawn had written dirty comments when elected, they 
do everything to ensure the acceleration of climate change and the escalation of the 
ecological disaster. It is no coincidence that the fascists have prompted a vulgar 
billionaire to accelerate the ecological disaster. That's their role now. Do everything 
about destroying the planet by protecting the most vulgar and predatory part of the 
billionaire. The Bombassaro Crucifixion Bomber in Brazil has transformed the denial of 
climate change as its central idea and has promised to lift any protection for the lungs 
of the Earth, the Amazon jungle. Nationalists and fascists are now proven to be the great 
threat of the planet.

When we see the fascists around the world talking about the threat of "illegal immigrants" 
and about the erosion of the morals brought by gay and "cultural Marxism", we know very 
well who they serve and what consequences this has for the planet that this momentum needs 
urgent global co-operation to preserve.

In particular, in Greece, fascism has an additional weapon called Macedonian, which was 
created due to the special historical conditions of the civil war and the shame campaign 
of the early 90s. This particularity does not change in its essence. As everywhere, here 
the fascists and nationalists in the name of the nation are the gravesites of the planet 
and of humanity. They are even more frightened than the fascists of the 30s and much more 
dangerous. Unlike the 30, the struggle to crush them is now interwoven with the struggle 
to save the planet.

Additional notes.

1 We have been born in a place that historically gave birth to an ancient civilization 
whose reflection is still being studied all over the world. The best aspects of this 
culture as depicted by cynical, stoic and skeptic philosophies have a universal universal 
value and are in stark contrast to today's nationalist sermons. In the lost state of Stoic 
Zeno, the vision of an anarchist society without slaves, with full gender equality, 
economic equalizer, and love as a basic social value was first introduced. Ancient Greek 
philosophers were the people who said they were citizens of the world.

We defend this ancient heritage against fascists who trample it because we need it in 
today's struggles. Regardless of who actually descended today's modern Greeks and how many 
of them are real biological descendants of ancient Greeks, it would be very good to study 
the texts of ancient Greek philosophies that have survived and have so much to say to us.

2 That the Prespa agreement comes as pressure from the EU and NATO against Russian 
influence largely explains why it is so humiliating for its neighbors. A member of the EU 
and NATO is Greece and it is from such a position of power and as a larger economic, 
military and population state that it could impose its terms.

The reversal of the reality that is being attempted by the nationalists and the KKE, which 
shows the influence of the EU and NATO in favor of its neighbors and Greece, and the 
fantasy that a smaller, economically, militarily and more populous state is able to take 
irrationality, is the epitome of political illusion.

Contrary to the role of the EU and NATO, the two-pronged role of Putin's Russia, through 
its entrepreneurs and funding networks in both countries, in Greece promotes the narrative 
that the Greekity of Macedonia is sold out and Macedonian democracy promotes the narrative 
that Macedonia becomes a colony of Greece. (Which incidentally is much closer to reality.) 
What the EU, NATO and Russia want, however, is a secondary issue in relation to the 
question of what we as neighboring people want with them, and if we eventually consider 
them our siblings or devout enemies neither worthy nor self-identified)

3 It's time to end with the idea that a maniacal psychopath killer like Alexander may be 
the subject of a controversy over which national heritage he has. Unfortunately, as with 
most books on the ancient world, most biographies about Alexander have been written in 
English and have not yet been translated into Greek. Among them, a book written by Richard 
Gabriel in 2015, titled "The madness of Alexander the Great", needs to be translated to 
learn what kind of man Alexander was and how absurd he is its exaggeration.

The Brazilian Anarchist Coordination deeply regrets the hundreds of workers killed and 
wounded by the rupture and overflow of two tailings dams at the Vale do Feiga mine mine 
and sympathize with all of them affected by this absurd crime ---- There were three years 
ago the largest environmental crime in Brazil and one of the largest in the world 
throughout history. The disruption of the Mariana / MG Dam beyond incalculable losses to 
Nature and to local cultures left, not counting animal losses, 19 dead people. The company 
Samarco, controlled by mining companies Vale and BHP Billiton, has not paid any fine or 
compensation, and even the reconstruction of the Bento Rodrigues village is practically 
halted. All this with the full agreement of the public power, with the mayor of Mariana, 
Duarte Júnior (PPS), the government of the State of Minas Gerais, Fernando Pimentel (PT) 
and the Presidency of the Republic, also the leader, Dilma Roussef.

No fine or indemnity paid, no rebuilt house, no repairs performed. Subjugated and 
oppressed continues the working class before this act of terrorism perpetrated in a 
terrifying pact between the Political State and the Great Capital. This time, a new 
tragedy occurred during the governments of Jair Bolsonaro (PSL) and Romeu Zema (NOVO). The 
President of the Republic, for several moments declared the environmental activists as 
obstacles to economic development and even within the hypocritical logic of capitalism, 
threatened to leave the Paris Agreement. Subsequently it ended up retreating influenced by 
political and economic losses to the bourgeoisie and to agribusiness, which such an act 
would provide. The Minas Gerais government does not fall behind in its destructive sanha. 
He promised to facilitate environmental licensing and open the door for mining and 
agribusiness exploration - a process that had already begun in Pimentel's PT government. 
He also promised to fight with the weapons he has, what he called a "of the biggest 
problems faced by MG", social movements. Finally, he declared full support for the lackey 
who occupies the presidency of the republic.

Another disaster announced and planned by the capital

A torrent of mud has hit the company's administrative area and a residential village, as 
well as dozens of houses near the river. Hundreds of company employees are missing and the 
possibility of survivors is very difficult, hit in the middle of lunch in facilities 
inexplicably built on the mud path. Just over three years after the human and 
environmental tragedy that broke out of the Fundão dam in Mariana, the state of Minas 
Gerais and the country are perplexed by the great mining company's involvement. There have 
been few warnings made by popular movements, academics, engineers and environmentalists 
since 2015 for the permanent risk of more than 400 ore tailings dams in the state of Minas 
Gerais alone. The dam complex around the Córrego do Feijão mine has been the subject of 
denunciations of 2015, however, the State Council for Environmental Policy of MG approved 
the expansion of the mine at the end of last year. According to the National Water Agency, 
there are another 45 dams in critical situation in Brazil, of these 5 are in MG.

The dam of Feijão, broken on 01/25/2019, was not on the list of dams in the most critical 
conservation condition.
At that moment the cities of Serro and Rio Acima are the subject of dispute. At first a 
new mine, only four kilometers away from the historic city threatens the entire water 
system of the city, not to mention other serious consequences. In the second, the 
installation of a new mine tailings containment dam, has a tenfold capacity of the Fundão 
dam in Mariana. Upstream, by the way, it's
responsible for a large part of the potable water abstraction of the metropolitan area of 
Belo Horizonte. Once again, Capital, eager for profits and always scorning life, provokes 
another disaster of gigantic proportions, reaping not only human lives, but razing 
cultivated lands, animal creations, dwellings, rivers that supply cities and impacting the 
environment in hundreds of kilometers away from the accident site. Once again, the 
agro-exporting model, typical of dependent and peripheral countries of the capitalist 
system like ours, is insensitive to the needs of the indigenous, peasant and poor 
population. Two tragedies occurring in different governments (PT and PSL). Demonstrating 
that the policy of destruction of natural resources and exploitation of our country by 
multinationals is a policy of State, not merely government.

We accuse the Judiciary of criminal complicity with the big mining companies. The disaster 
of Mariana, whose defendants are the miners Samarco, Vale and BHP Billiton, has been 
dragging in the Federal Court since 2016. We remember that the former Companhia Vale do 
Rio Doce (CVRD), a state-owned company founded in 1942, was privatized in May 1997 during 
the FHC government for $ 3.3 billion, when only its mineral reserves were estimated at 
more than $ 100 billion. One of the neoliberal allegations for CVRD's felony delivery was 
that the state-owned company was incompetent and inefficient ... Since then, Vale, 
controlled by domestic and foreign financial capital, has adopted an aggressive export 
model, with crude ore sales unprocessed; intensification of production aimed at the 
accelerated depletion of mineral deposits, generating a huge volume of tailings that clog 
hundreds of poorly constructed and poorly monitored dams. Vale, as well as other major 
mining companies operating in the country, overturns already fragile labor legislation and 
exercises anti-union practices. In this type of financially-driven economy model, those 
responsible (majority shareholders) are hardly punished because they are protected by 
their home capitalist countries and by the criminal labyrinths of the international 
moneylender system. The loosening of the environmental legislation registered in recent 
years, and which should increase even more in the current government as a requirement of 
Capital, foresees new disasters in the future, whose victims will be the same as always. 
All this debris will go to the Paraopeba River, from there to the Furnas Plant and from 
there to the São Francisco River. The Minas Gerais Sanitation Company (COPASA) has already 
interrupted the collection of water that supplies part of the metropolitan area of Belo 
Horizonte. Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais (CEMIG) is in a state of absolute tension 
since the Furnas Power Plant, where all the toxic sludge will flow is the main generator 
of electricity for MG. With mud turbines can not run. The scenario of chaos in Minas 
Gerais is eminent.

The scenario, therefore, is terrible and corroborates so that the anarchist critique 
elaborated from last 150 years is still completely current. The State is only the other 
face of Capitalism and its antihuman streak of destruction and domination.
It does not interest the people who occupy the direction of state, nor the party. The rot 
is in the perverse structure of this single currency with two horrible faces, Capitalism 
and State. On the other hand, there is the people with their actions of immediate 
solidarity before the horror. Hundreds of potable water, food, clothing and medicines are 
spontaneously emerging to benefit those affected by yet another act of terrorism. A clear 
demonstration that, despite everything, we still carry within us the seed of a new world, 
of Mutual Support, Self-Management and Solidarity. Only the collectivization of all 
environments of social life from the mobilization and organization in social and popular 
movements will distance us from barbarism.
The Brazilian Anarchist Coordination repudiates more this terrorist act of the mining 
company VALE. We stand together with everyone affected by crime and we call on them to 
organize themselves socially to fight for a world where all and all fit!

Our life in front of the Capital is worthless!
Get out Samarco! Off It's Worth It!
For the building of a STRONG PEOPLE! For the construction of the POPULAR POWER!

Struggle against nationalism, intolerance and war ... against states, bosses and their 
mechanisms ---- Solidarity with the entire deniers of the army tried in the Ruf's Military 
Court ---- Within the next period, four total deniers of conscription are being tried for 
their choice not to be in the ranks of the Greek army. Konstantinos Gounitsiotis, Stratos 
Moses, Pavlos Christopoulos and Babis Tsilianidis are being tried on Feb. 6 and 18 and on 
13/3 on Rouf's army. ---- The total deniers of the army went into practice of 
insubordination, driven by political motives against the army, an institution that always 
served and secured the interests of the bosses and their respective powers, against the 
interests of the exploited and oppressed of this society. Against an institution which, in 
the interior, contributes to the cronyism of the ideals of the nation-state, to the 
insinuation of nationalistic hatred, to the expansion of militarism in the social field, 
and which is always in the reserve for suppressing class and social demands, for the 
repression of social uprisings . Against a mechanism that abroad actively contributes to 
the destruction of areas of the capitalist region with the aim of looting natural 
resources and exploiting the local populations as the powerful states of the world are in 
the best of interest. A mechanism that has in the past exterminated foreign and aliens' 
populations to widen state sovereignty and serve the interests of capital.

For this denial, the total deniers of the armed forces are punished with a double and 
especially revenge mechanism of repression. In addition to criminal prosecutions and 
military courts, often repeated as the "crime" of denial of office is permanent, they are 
accepted and hardened by the imposition of fines of 6,000 euros (and in many cases 
repeated). The seizures of accounts and other assets and the state of economic asphyxia 
that they create are consequential. There is also a lack of pressures by phone calls for 
receipt of classification papers, solicitations by military recruits to "settle" military 
obligations, telephone calls at workplaces, or even cops visits to comrades' homes and 
self-capturing arrests.

We are in a period when nationalism, intolerance, racism and fascism have been revived in 
society. The cause was the Macedonian issue and the rallies that took place all over 
Greece and gave the opportunity to all kinds of warlike, conservative, nationalistic and 
fascist groups to come out of the margins and to claim public space. Within this treaty, 
the left-wing government is attempting to present the Prespa agreement " as a model for 
peaceful resolution of disputes and promoting peace in the region ". But we are well aware 
that the Prespa agreement is a dictated agreement to achieve the enlargement of the EU and 
NATO and to strengthen its position in the Balkans towards Russia. The EU and NATO are two 
supranational mechanisms of economic and military enforcement. Greece, as a member of 
these two mechanisms (with any political manager, whether in the right or left), is 
involved in their planning and pursuits, has linked its interests with those of the 
Western bloc and takes an active part in the antagonisms with other blocks power. At the 
same time that it hastened to facilitate the expansion of the alliance, it transforms the 
site into a large NATO and American base camp.In this direction it strengthens the 
existing US-NATO military bases (Souda, Araxos) or installs new ones. Alexandroupolis 
converted into port for NATO troops are in the Balkans, while in Larissa from May 2018 has 
been transferred to a unit of unmanned aircraft (type «MQ -9 Reaper» ) of US military 
forces . At the same time, the Greek state signs an agreement with Turkey on the 
prevention of immigration and repatriation, while FRONTEX frigates continue to hunt 
migrants at the sea border and in collaboration with the Navy to turn the Aegean into an 
immense cemetery.

Defining the situation with regard to the "Macedonian issue" is the pursuit of both the 
Greek capital for further expansion to the neighboring country and the Greek state for the 
protection and promotion of its economic interests and the hegemony in the wider Balkan 
region but also the South-East Mediterranean. The entire rhetoric of the ruling Left is on 
the restoration of the Greek state as a dominant force in the Balkans, its restoration to 
the local-international order of things in the southeastern Mediterranean, as a player 
again after the "adventure" of the memorandums. The left-wing government openly states 
that Turkey recognizes Turkey as a foe and a threat at stake this time, the profits from 
the exploitation of the hydrocarbons of the EEZs of Cyprus and the south-eastern 
Mediterranean in general. Allied military junctions and apartheid states (Egypt-Israel) 
are therefore concluded at the altar, and declarations of readiness are made to undertake 
any military action to defend the profits of the powerful. Gains for the capital AND 
military spending, economic exploitation and war for the exploited. And all this while the 
attack on the exploited and oppressed parts of society continues, completing and 
consolidating the policies of the last few years. of the national interest, military 
alliances with junts and apartheid states (Egypt-Israel) are concluded, and declarations 
of readiness are made to undertake any military action to defend the profits of the 
powerful. Gains for the capital AND military spending, economic exploitation and war for 
the exploited. And all this while the attack on the exploited and oppressed parts of 
society continues, completing and consolidating the policies of the last few years. of the 
national interest, military alliances with junts and apartheid states (Egypt-Israel) are 
concluded, and declarations of readiness are made to undertake any military action to 
defend the profits of the powerful. Gains for the capital AND military spending, economic 
exploitation and war for the exploited. And all this while the attack on the exploited and 
oppressed parts of society continues, completing and consolidating the policies of the 
last few years.

During this juncture of nationalist excitement and with the drums of war, the whole 
deniers of the army echo their opposition to their states and armies and refuse to serve 
their oppressors. Therefore they can only find us solidarity.

We are not prepared to follow state and bourgeois voices for national unity and for 
submission and involvement in its murderous mechanisms. We are well aware of our class and 
social position to join with our exploiters and oppressors. We will not serve state and 
boss plans.

Against the massacre among the oppressed and exploited who happened to be born on the 
other side of the border, oppose the common struggle against homelands, religions, states, 
and all fictional divisions. The only war in which we are prepared to participate is 
against oppression and exploitation, to overthrow state and capitalist barbarism.

To set up mounds against nationalism, fascism, intolerance and war.

To fight for a world without frontiers, states and wars. Without patriarchy and power.

To fight for social revolution and social liberation, for anarchy and communism.

Solidarity with the entire deniers of the army tried in the Ruf's Military Court
