#göteborg mot nazism

[lizoma]

September, 30th 2017, Göteborg. What happened?

At 30.9.2017 nazis tried to march through the city of Göteborg. The officials not only permitted this, they also allowed a route that would have brought them near the Synagogue of Göteborg.

There were dozens of calls in left media from activists to show up and block their march.

As a person from germany, still in shock about our election results 2 weeks ago (where the fascists won 13% and 87 seats in the parliament), I felt it was time to stand up.

The police was set to protect the nazis march, had build up mass arrest facilities and assembled the biggest troop strength since the Göteborg riots in the 90s.

On Saturday a huge crowd, leftists as well as non-radical but pissed off people from all over Sweden showed up to the standing demonstration at Heden. It was thousands and thousands of people.

After a while of preparation there we decided to try to get close to the nazi march and block them. Finally we found them in a small street with police around them.

At first we were just 100 of protesters but there was a constant and massive inflow of people so that our number grew pretty fast. At some point the police began to close and double up their lines to get rid of us.

In our back they tried to close the street with their cars to encage. My friend and me could sneak out there, even though I was almost hit intentionally by a police car.

Now police started to ride into the super tight standing people with horses and used their dogs to attack them. FUCK THE POLICE FOR ABUSING INNOCENT ANIMALS FOR THEIR VIOLENT PURPOSES. This was when the black block and other activists started to fight back and defend their position.

Fog bombs and explosive were going of and scared the horses and dog so much that they couldn’t attack anymore. As a vegan animal rights person it was hard for me to see this but it was clearly an act of defense; who wants to be run over by a horse?

In the end the protesters were pushed back more and more but the police really had to fight for every meter. A few people, also my friend and I could sneak around everything and finally stand direct in front of the nazis again (of course with protective police in between).

Meanwhile the police brought three buses to get the nazis out of the battlefield. Therefore they pushed us back again but this time without encaging us and without horses or dogs.

At some point they stopped and we all shouted and screamed at them and at the nazis scum behind their lines. At this point we were out on street for 8 hours. In the end they allowed the nazis to march to back to their starting point.

So our success was that from the moment we were at the scene the nazi-demo was blocked completely and they couldn’t move one more meter. This was really a great feeling.

Follow-up:

The nazis told before the march that they are not afraid of the police because they “have enough comrades in their lines”.

The police reacted on this by saying that every member of the police is allowed to have a private opinion on politics.

The police was more then once attacked by the nazis who wanted to break through the police lines to go onto their route.

The Nazis were allowed to wear helmets and have shields which they used to attack police.

There is a video online that shows the shield attack; two good pictures you can find here: https://www.haaretz.com/world-news/europe/1.815007 You will find that the police is not fully geared and wears no helmets. When the nazis got violent they just said things like: “Oh come on, calm down a little.”

Even though their demonstration-time was over, the nazis where allowed by the police to hold a speech.

Even though the nazis refused to move back until their leader would have been released the police negotiated with them about this topic.

Conclusion:

Nazis can break every rule and almost nothing happens to them. They are considered people you can talk to.

As a protester you can be run over by horses, bitten by dogs, run over by police cars; but when you defend yourself your are “attacking the police”.

Not that all this is a major surprise…

I beg you, dear people in doubt who also can’t accept nazis: Stand up. Go to the next big counter nazi demo. And just have a look. Make up your own mind about what is happening out there.

PS: This post is a very short report and very simplified to keep it short and readable.

5 nazister dömda för våldsamt upplopp

5 nazister dömda för våldsamt upplopp

[spindelwebb]

Jag blir så jävla trött på alla anhängare av rasistiska och nazistiska politiska grupper. Här är ett utdrag ur en artikel på Expressen. "Emerich Roth, 93, är överlevande från Förintelsen. Han har oförtröttligt arbetat mot våld, rasism och nazism. Under lördagen i Göteborg syntes deras bilder på plakat i nazistiska Nordiska motståndsrörelsens demonstration. Under stod ordet "Förbrytare"." Vad ända in i helvete är detta? Sånt här blir legitimt om SD kommer till makten. NRM är bara en gren som gör skitjobbet för SD.Bara titta vilka som sitter på vissa poster i kommunerna. Vad än Jimmy Åkesson säger och sparkar ut folk, så kommer de tillbaka när de når toppen. De stryker folk medhårs. Vill inte att historien ska upprepas. Ni som sympatiserar med dessa grupper, ta ert pick och pack och stick från mitt konto.Här har ni inget att hämta. http://ift.tt/2fAbyII
