Political power… organized robbery!

“Property is theft,” said the greatest prophet of anti-authoritarians, Pierre Proudhon (philosopher, economist, author), the first self-described “anarchist.” In parallel steps, Syriza’s “parliamentary” candidate in Berea, Georgia Papadimitriou, a retired teacher, asked in her speech: “What is political power other than organized robbery?”

He continued by reproducing Syriza’s well-known concept of the joints of power, saying: “Change will not happen only by taking the government. No changes must be done with l Institutional changeJoints of power.. because power is something else and governance is something else. The government is for whoever wins the elections and the power is for whoever has his own institutions!

The parliamentary candidate who considers power to be “organized robbery” did not worry about how its structure would change and how it would become more democratic through institutional measures to prevent “robbery”. It’s just that, since burglary is a given, her party should attempt it.

We don’t demonize, we don’t improve the cone and we don’t just glorify the candidate’s opinions. But it’s not just her personal opinions so we can ignore them.

he is the sound echo, the ideological thread that comes from the dusty shelves of the Third International. It connects part of the executive potential of SYRIZA, which came from KKE at the time of the split of the Unified Coalition, which came from the left-wing components that joined SYRIZA with the Unification Congress, in 2013.

Her speech connects the line of Polakis, who wants his country with his judges, with the words of the former prime minister’s wife, “We took the government, but we did not take power,” and with the movements of the former minister. Nikos Pappas to subordinate information – to the supposed benefit of the people, not … to the power of the party.

Here, as a footnote, Tasia Christodoulopoulou’s warning was included, who explained that PASOK’s long stay in power was due to the presence of the famous “green guards”. He suggested that Syriza get its own “Syriza guards” to perpetuate its power. The classic mechanistic approach to those who learned communism from pamphlets.

Because PASOK had Akides, but it also had institutional work. From changing the Family Code and the National Institute of Social Insurance to ASEP and Transparency Commissions. In addition to the fact that he also had the easy money from the European Union with which he bribed people. The “green guards” only hurt him because they created hate. His covert attempt to channel information (the Koskotas and Popotas cases) created the same hatred, which backfired on him.

Presumably, Tsipras wants to convert Syriza. To transfer him from the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe “bad” radical left, in which he does not see any future (as soon as the memoirs brought him gifts) to a left-wing social democratic party. and absorb PASOK, as the great faction of the centre-left, to triumph in the future as the dread rival of the right.

Besides the question, if he himself has Political education That the role of the leadership of a social democratic party requires (so far it has not been shown), it is doubtful how it would include in a social democratic logic all those childless “soldiers” in occupying the joints of power.

It would have been easy at the time he was soaring. And the reason for the “monarchy and tie dogs” is the popular expression. However, if the polls are confirmed and he loses to Mitsotakis, his “disappointment” will begin.

It will be difficult to convince adults of the strings of state seizure. For to them power may be organized robbery, but it is purified when it is for them to steal it, for the party, and always for the good of the people—as they themselves see as the good of the people.
