A-Infos (en) Greece, Athens, APO, land & freedom: General strike 28/2 - Organization and struggle against anti-social state and capitalist restructurings (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Restructurings of exclusion, subjugation and repression ---- In the 
midst of a deep overall systemic crisis, the state capitalist system 
accelerates restructurings that target every manifestation of social 
life, devaluing basic social needs, work, health, education, housing, 
transportation. The state, faithful to the neoliberal model followed 
since the years of the memorandum in the Greek area, continues to 
intensify social and class exclusions and to increase the cost of living 
at even more intensive rates, while uninsured and precarious work, 
flexible hours, intensification of work, privatization and management by 
the bosses of all our basic needs are signs that respond to capitalism's 
need to exacerbate class inequality and completely devalue our lives. 
This is exactly what will always remind us in the worst way, the 
unspeakable tragedy in Tempe 1 year ago with the murder of 57 people. 
This crime that happened in Tempe was a premeditated murder with the 
Greek state and private capital to blame. With the sell-off of TRAINOSE 
to Italian investors (under SYRIZA) and the return of decommissioned 
trains to Switzerland, the government's ditherings about upgrading the 
railways followed. The upgrade they advertised included: outdated or 
non-existent maintenance and control systems and an understaffed 
workforce. And while the workers themselves had warned the authorities 
through press releases and out-of-court hearings and had carried out 
successive mobilizations and strikes (which were deemed illegal and 
abusive by the civil justice), for the improvement of the network and 
for additional recruitments, things remained as they had So, this is 
what the "upgrade" in privatization means: To play with the lives of 
passengers and crown workers, since no money is going to be given for 
control, prevention and people's safety. So when our lives are counted 
as another expense in the budget of the state and capital, we are 
talking about prescribed murders - neither accidents, nor "human 
errors", nor "bad timing". The criminals of the Ministry of Transport, 
the management of Hellenic Train and the entire state apparatus that 
contributed to this murder will be held to account with the entire 
social base, the organized movement and its resistances.
The further looting of the social base is done by the giantization of 
precision in basic goods of everyday life, while at the same time the 
meager wages and daily wages are not enough to cover the cost of living, 
leading the great social majority to the risk of destitution. The 
increases in the prices of products in supermarkets, which make the 
coverage of absolutely necessary needs, such as food, with a typical 
example that of baby milk and olive oil, a bet, are the result of the 
intensified attack of the bosses with the aim of constantly maximizing 
their profits in weight of the plebeians. At the same time, both the 
cost of commuting due to the increase in fuel prices and heating, as a 
result of the criminal and extortionate policy of the energy cartel, is 
increasing.
To this condition of obsolescence of basic needs is added the housing 
issue, with the exorbitant amounts of rent and the auctions of first 
homes by funds and servicers, which result in either people spending 
most of their salary to rent a home or to be thrown on the street. The 
shattered health landscape, with the dissolution and privatization of 
the NHS, the mergers and closures of hospital units, addiction 
facilities, primary health facilities and children's hospitals, the 
postponement of planned surgeries and treatments, increases in drug 
prices and commercialization of health services which opens the door to 
all kinds of profiteers, comes to further exacerbate social and class 
exclusions, leaving out those who cannot respond financially, with 
immediate risk to their health. At the same time, the new law on "Free 
Universities" introduced by the government of ND comes to seal the 
absolute commercialization of education, since the recognition of 
private institutions - even as branches of supposedly large institutions 
abroad, in the main body of the education provided validates the 
privatization of yet another public good. The essence of the overall 
anti-social restructurings, which is on the one hand the continuous 
increase in the rates of violence by the state and the bosses at the 
expense of the social and class base, and on the other hand the crushing 
of collective resistances, the intimidation and the discipline of 
society, is thus highlighted more clearly. for the unhindered advance of 
state and capitalist brutality.

From the attempted privatization of public health and first home 
auctions, to squatter evictions, state repression and killings by cops, 
the state's anti-social agenda that aims to completely plunder the lives 
of the vast social majority at the altar of power, of control and profit 
of political and financial bosses.
Against state and capitalist restructurings of exclusions, subjugation 
and repression, the devaluation of our lives, impoverishment and 
oppression, against states and bosses that oppress our lives to 
intensify social and class struggles. Let us all stand together on the 
road and struggles of social resistance and class solidarity. To fight 
collectively and from below against our oppressors, to strengthen and 
guard the social and class resistances that are the target of repression 
and to organize new ones.
Without having any illusions about the role of institutions, without 
offering any consent in the management of our lives, without taking a 
single step back from what we have conquered and which are constantly at 
stake and making the spaces where we work, study and live centers of 
resistance and match. The only prospect for a society of equality, 
solidarity and freedom, without exploitation and oppression, lies in our 
own hands, in the struggle for social and class emancipation.
The SOCIAL REVOLUTION.
