1 year agoThey’re trying to scare off ppl from protesting… These are our so-called democracies every lib loves so much. In school I once learned protesting was one of our most important rights under democracies. Whatever happened to that o.O
Meanwhile incredible activists around me are losing their jobs for standing up to genocide. Hearing abt these cases just makes me wanna raise my voice even further. Tho I wouldn’t know what I’d do if I literally lost all my job opportunities. Literally only cuz I stood up against the cowardly slaughter of babies. At least I did the right thing then.
…my condolences. I didn’t know shit was hitting the fan like this in Belgium. This sounds so fckn illegal fr. Was that in response to the actions of the harbor unions?
In Austria the terrorism threat has been hightened; that’s all I know abt. Like there’s gonna be more soldiers stationed at the parliament and whatnot. Oh and it’s illegal to cover your face significantly for a few years now. So at unauthorized demonstrations what might happen is police reminding ppl it’s illegal to cover ones face and once the demonstrators are kettled, they might get an additional fine to the normal one. Tho if every protestor would object, any lawsuit would prolly be retracted; that is if enough ppl r affected.
