The elderly man being attacked by an Athens (Greece) cop in this photo is not a member of the black bloc or a nobody. It is Manolis Glezos, the Greek national hero who, on the 30th of May 1941 tore down the swastika flag from the Acropolis, an act for which he suffered torture and imprisonment. It was the first public act of the Resistance in Greece, only a month after the Nazi take-over.
Who would have dreamed that seventy years later, a dirty coward wearing a uniform serving the capitalists that do not even deserve to wipe the soles of his feet has the gall to touch/assault him?
You guys should know that this got zero coverage on the Greek news. Zero. And people are complaining about a fucking movie theater. I can’t wait till we start tearing EU flags down, too.
We are fools to think that reporting is independent and free of corporate and political influence. Not anymore
