Fell And Hurt Knee Numb

alone are not going anywhere

of ADRIAN MARCHETTI

To understand the issues and seek a solution must start from the very birth of the People Viola and see how it is formed. It is a movement from below and from the Net, with a thousand faces who took the discontent toward the government and Berlusconi Berlusconi himself, it is aggregated by chance, fragments that have been approached by current and joined together in increasing numbers, until it flows into the joint decision to meet, even outside the network and demonstrate in public, in reality, their discontent: The No-Day Berlusconi in December 2009.
From there was born the Purple People, as an attempt to keep together that spontaneous movement, keeping alive the energy and channel it towards a definite destination, to avoid that could disperse. And it is here that the problems started.
The initiative itself was good and commendable, yet it is realized as he could. Why? Keep asking me this too, but still do not have a definitive answer. Can I make some assumptions and propose the result of my thoughts on the matter. Contentment
after the success of the event? Despair because nothing has changed, even after the event? Errors in the management of the movement, by whom he was on top? Or does the very nature of a movement that, for spontaneous aggregation: consumed with a bang, its energy is lost again? Her fashion has passed?
There could be many causes and it would take too long to analyze them one by one. Some elements, however, I have been able to observe myself, following pages and discussions of the Purple People.
The first element, and perhaps most important is the self-referentiality of the fund, which is noted in many of the speeches "official": no pushing, or perhaps the strength to talk to others, the impetus to push the boundaries and include as many people as possible. Most of the post is made by the People for the People Viola Viola, as they say in my part, if the counts and laughs all by himself. And here perhaps it may help some lovers of statistics, if he wants to examine the enrollment pages Viola over the years: my impression is that after the first boom, we were always the same, almost closed in a circle. Not exactly ideal for a movement from below that aspires to be the popular movement.
sorry to say, but so it is really the same fate of those left-wing parties, that every day you criticize or mock you: sit in a corner pouting, to criticize and comment, while the world goes about his business.
should instead retrieve the initial spirit, if it is still possible, and echoed a precise action, aimed at those who should be the real objectives of the movement. Antiberlusconismo not an end in itself, because this alone would condemn us to the ghetto and not count anything. The real goal should be to show in that another Italy is possible, that there is still room to be reborn and revive the country, taking it out of the swamp in which it has sunk Berlusconi and his clique. Show that Italy is still alive and have energy. Assuming that it really is.
are goals that can not be achieved by the group of us and talking to each other, but just going out on the streets and opening people's eyes. In other words, flip and reverse the systematic brainwashing, operated by the TV. And eradicate the tumor continues to grow in the body of Italy: Berlusconi in this tumor is not the top, but that has its roots in the League. The Berlusconi
disasters are violent, as earthquakes or hurricanes, they come in, destroy, but then eventually leave. The League is a toxic poisoning of the land, that will not go alone, but it will get worse day by day, by a poisoned land, can not be born toxic and poisonous fruit in turn. We see with our eyes, in the social disintegration, the rise of racism, the emergence of all that is worst in man. The League is now already entrenched in much of north and south attossicherà, prompting him to produce similar parts and Mirror. And when Berlusconi is finally gone, the league will absorb the majority of its votes, but not limited to the north. The only way out is a slow and systematic reclamation of the territory, a process that will take years before they bear fruit, but that is definitely the only way out for more than fifteen years of Berlusconi's nightmare. Purple people alone will not suffice, but you can at least start: no beginning, there may even be an end. You will need to participate also all those parties who really want an Italy different, and not only get the power in place of Berlusconi, but in the meantime we can start and show the direction in which you have to walk. The People
Viola was born from the Net and is rooted in the Internet is right to maintain a strong presence Net, to prevent them from eating that, too, because the Web is the future. But this is not, especially not here in Italy, here in Italy, this is TV and this is firmly in the hands of Berlusconi's band. They put on a missile in the brain of the audience and the TV monitor. The monopoly of television
not be denied, under any circumstances. And then?
I do not have a definitive answer, but I can make some suggestions. They may be valid, maybe it will be: it seems to me that lead in the right direction, but I leave the assessment to others.
The Network is the starting point, but should not be the limit. It is essential to keep in touch and coordinate at national level but locally the physical presence is still the most important element. It's fine in structuring local units, to cover the territory, and indeed this aspect is already there should be further developed and strengthened. In a period like this, where parties are weakening the country (apart from the league, but that sticks like a mussel), you must make people feel that there is an alternative and it is next to them. The TV has taken the place of the old clubs, in most cases, and we should try to drag people from the tv and bring it out into reality.
My impression is that at the time, the Viola is perceived by most people (including those who I have heard, of course) as "a thing of the Internet" to involve oneself in a ghetto. Well, it's the trend that we must fight now. Be seen and perceived in the streets, in cities, not just for big events: there, always and everywhere, even in smaller towns. Finding a physical place where gather and discuss, in every city and place them purple flags, because everyone can see. Organize meetings, debates, but also cultural initiatives, even with film film club that obviously have something to say on current. And advertise, either through leaflets, posters on the walls, maybe even looking for space in local newspapers and on local television. If you want to clean up Italy by Berlusconi, you have to reclaim every inch.
physical presence, in person, to conquer space local network to hold together and coordinate their activities and ideas at the national level. I'm not saying it is already doing: I say we need to do more and especially to be seen. Doing things is not enough, now, need to be done even know those around us, show them. The Italy of today thinks only with his eyes. Increased and more effective local organization, then, would also react immediately to what is happening in individual territories and cities. We must knock on every crack, and split to enlarge the wall around people. We live in a city with a mayor and a council League, or the PDL? All right: ineffectiveness assailing each, for every mistake, everything that does not work in the city. Bombardment, as soon as it occurs. This can be done only with a good local organization, to see what is not working in the area and can now do this in the territory to those who live there, their fellow citizens who vote.
To be fair, we also all of the mistakes come in other colors: get rid of Berlusconi is the priority, but it is only the beginning of the process. The goal must be a better Italy, an Italy not only of another color. This too is part of a broader framework: if we want to open people's eyes, we must use the information. Inform, inform, and inform, on everything that takes place both in the country, and in the rest of Italy. Splitting the veil of Maya, created by TV and by the news of the scheme. All of them can lead local initiatives in this direction: the lies told by the sweeping political shift and what is the reality show, even those who do not really want to see. To touch the world, instead of leaving it is only seen through the screen of a TV.
Therefore, it is important to work with any other organization which has as its aim to investigate, bring to light what others hide under the carpet. There are many sites that trying to correct information, conducting investigations or promoting initiatives. We must work with them, join and leave the Net mainly Whether or Greenpeace Legambiente, in the fight against nuclear, or groups in the south who are opposed to the mafia, it makes no difference: after all, the enemy always has the same face and is Berlusconi and Berlusconi. So you should cooperate as much as possible and spread outside the network, the streets, all the information that denies us the tv. We
Network, which is a great means of communication. A means which, however, is reserved for the few in Italy. It's up to us then, to those few who use it, bringing news from the road network, the people who do not use it to learn. Continue to drink until all that tells the TV, the official statements of this or that political will also continue to believe that everything goes really well and that Italy's Berlusconi and Bossi is the best of all possible worlds. But since we can not drag all the Italians on the Net because they are able to see the news that hide the news, we will be the ones to bring the news to them. The only way to defeat ignorance and populism is to inform, communicate, give people the means to form a critical sense. After two decades of brainwashing will be difficult and many will not want to accept it, but we must try. You the only way to really clean up the country if there is still time.
More information also passes through every possible attempt to weaken or annoyed with the boycott, or better, with activity from conscious consumer. Compiled a nice list of all banks in the hands of the League, for example, and put it available to all: in this way, everyone can decide whether to leave their money in the hands of Bossi, or close the account at that bank and transfer them elsewhere . Make a list of all companies in the hands of Berlusconi and family, and put it available to everyone so everyone can decide whether to buy from him, and so funding, or go elsewhere. And so on.
There are many activities you can organize and play, but all pass through a point: to inform. And it is to inform people that we need a constant and living in the territory, a presence as widespread as possible and widespread, ready to mobilize every time you open a crack, but always working to re-educate their fellow citizens and show to them how you really diminishing Italy out of the plastic TV.
To do this, we must remain united. Do not break up into small groups, not divided into streams: remain united. For the divisions will be as long as you want, after, and now, however, to join and open to everyone who really want to change the country. Before a change is definitely Berlusconi.
