Drifting towards dictatorship

At the time of his death in 2006, Augusto Pinochet had been implicated in over 300 criminal charges for human rights violations. The charges included 194 counts of killings Spanish citizens. He was arrested in London and held on house arrest in comfortable rented accommodation for a year and a half before being released by the British government. During that time he was visited by Margaret Thatcher to pay her respects.

Who was Pinochet?

Pinochet was the Chilean dictator who took power in Chile in 1973 after a US backed coup that ousted President Allende the democratically elected socialist president of Chile, which lead to a brutal right wing dictatorship, led by Pinochet.

“Pinochet’s newly formed junta locked hundreds of thousands of people in detention centres, “disappeared” (killed) at least 2,279 for political reasons and tortured another 31,947. Pinochet took power by military force and used military force to maintain his regime.” libcom Continue reading

Young People Speaking Their Minds – Kill The Bill

 

The Biologist values and jobs

 Young people speaking their mind. But as understanding of these things grows among the general public, through social media, through journalists and researchers who dedicate themselves to exposing the truth. When the general public start to pay more attention than lip service to democracy, the elite know they have problems and they are not going to deal with these problems by stepping back and taking a recount of how the public are treated in the unbalanced world of commerce. Rather they are going to step forward and recount how the public can be controlled by the age old device of the police.

KILL THE BILL

If when a cop kills somebody and the public holds a vigil for the victim, the police will come and destroy that too. You got to ask yourself what kind of society are we turning into. When the lying git in Downing street continues to make a mockery out of the democratic process, you could even find yourself in jail if you protest that. Every time Priti Patel opens her mouth it is never to apply some logic to why people are on the street, but to change a law that will stop their right to do so. All the government have left to defend their draconian practice of blaming the victim for the problems they saddle us with every day is – new police powers. If history has anything to remind us, it is. That this is precisely why the police were invented. To protect the rights of the elite to rule over us. The only right the police authority have, from their conception is the right to do what they are told. But we the public, the rabble, the citizen, have always had the right to protest, it was not given, it is a basic principal of democracy, and without it we can not call ourselves a democracy but an oligarchy.

As America awaits more violent attacks, (Act II) time for some reflection

I don’t think the moron nutcases attacking the capital are the main problem. They are kind of puppets for the main regime, the Cristian fundamentalist. The clean cut people in the wheelhouse charting the course. Remember when they were talking on US news outlets about UK cities being run by Muslims, which people here were perplexed at.

CityStrolls-REPLAY: Militarising the police

CityStrolls-REPLAY: How many ambulances and paramedics are available during a pandemic, masks, ventilators, beds, psychiatrists, workers? Compared with. How many policemen can turn up instantly. How many cops does it take to kettle some peaceful protesters, while allowing other drunk nutters to run riot. The “emergency services” have become the “police services”. If the efficiency of military tactics shown in West George Street where applied to human rights, the health services, mental health, social housing there would be no reasons to see militarised swat teams on our streets. If we don’t become part of the solution – Get used to it. As the UK is using the same US approach to militarising the police and have been, at least over the last ten or fifteen years.

DISASTER CAPITAL OR SOCIALISM? IT IS UP TO OURSELVES

The present situation we are facing demonstrates why capitalism isn’t working, if it ever has.

From ancient times cultures have been aware of what is happening in the present will have an effect on the future. Whether it was determined through a message from the spirit world or a sage. There had been a general sense of what you sow in the present is what you will reap in the future. Continue reading
