Immigration, Journal, antifascism


The title of the newspapers in those days, very disturbing: "Roma and waste, the two problems that the government will address" is emblematic, though perhaps in an unconscious, degeneration, which corresponds all'imbarbarimento of Italian society.

E 'this very dangerous combination, expresses contempt for all human beings who are no longer regarded as such.

It is also absurd that we do not notice because everything that is happening is dangerously similar to what already happened during the Nazi-fascist era to Jews and Roma. Jews and Roma were not performed immediately to the extermination camps, but passed through demonization, the attempt to find consensus among the people "normal", the internment camps in (today's nomadic camps?) and in ghettos.

It was not difficult at that so-called normal people who never would have thought the final solution, there were still a reason for persecution, "it is true, it is not right, but the Jews are rich, and their daughters find work, which serves as "argent de poche," while we noialtre unemployed "," yes, no good, but the gypsies are nomadic in nature, and then steal ", and so on.

The construction of clichés is through propaganda, which is the opposite of information, the study's analysis.

E 'for nearly two decades, we are inundated by propaganda, which has sought the consent for the conduct of wars of aggression, so frequent and predictable, to remember the campaigns of the Romans or those of the Ottoman Empire. But unfortunately the media and too many dishonest intellectuals have managed to convince the public, developing skills with the reasons that the often rough political propaganda of the attackers provided.

And so when it comes to compliance with the boundaries of one state (Kuwait), again unlike these limits are to be killed (Kosovo), once there is the danger of chemical or nuclear weapons, but when you find that there are, you go quietly to the fact that we are bringing democracy somewhere.

And despite the fact that in the intervals between a campaign and the other media and intellectuals, who do not want to appear naive as a child of four years into scatenino analysis you discover that what we already knew, the preparation of the new campaign, here are falling in the usual shameful role, using their knowledge and skills to advertise the new war as it Advertise a commercial product (perhaps touch on Iran? O is already thinking about more ambitious targets?)

As knowledge workers and workers in general, we must ask ourselves the question of developing the critical capacity, to expand the role of research and analysis of the facts, for the intellectual, which is unique weapon to spread the superficiality of clichés and propaganda.
