They were there on Friday, showing their amateurish grieving faces, as if someone really needed them. Only the Main one conspicuously failed, because that is his manner: he creates all the shitty situations of our lives, and then stands above them, as innocent and amazed, leaving for himself the position of the one who will judge, condemn, release, explain, comfort
The canopy of the Novi Sad Railway Station building collapsed on November 1 at around 12 noon. The rescue operation lasted eight hours, and at the end fourteen people succumbed to their injuries. On the same evening, the people of Novi Sad took to the streets and paid their respects to the victims. As this text goes to press, large demonstrations are underway in Novi Sad
The regime went into spin and damage control. The President of the Assembly and former Prime Minister Ana Brnabić offers her head because of the accident in Novi Sad, unaware that no one needs her head. All the citizens want is to keep their heads on their shoulders
After the tragedy at the railway station in Novi Sad in which 14 people lost their lives, the government promises that the culprits will be held accountable. However, if one looks at the history of being ignored in the progressive government, the impression is devastating - there are only two ministerial resignations compared to dozens of lost lives. Will it be different this time?
In the third year of his mandate, Aleksandar Šapić became the loneliest man in the world. If it weren't for the media that haunts him at his public appearances, no one would even notice that he does anything, but everyone feels the results of his activities every day.
Any concession in the Serbian Progressive Party causes a feeling of humiliation, collapses the self-image of uniqueness and uniqueness. They find every defeat humiliating because they need complete control and omnipotence and because it threatens their sense of dominance. Therefore, they react to defeats with anger and rage, they certainly shift the responsibility to others. They have a constant need for recognition and admiration, and any retreat, even a symbolic one, puts them in a field of insecurity, which they cannot stand. They are ready to win by absolutely any means: lying, manipulating, breaking the law and all moral norms
The mandate of the outgoing Council is remembered for the absence of a sincere initiative to organize the local media space. Also, the deadlines for granting expired TV and radio licenses were broken, and the famous fifth license for national coverage was not granted. Their last move was the unanimously voted allocation of a regional frequency to Informer TV, and that was against the law. Are better days coming
In the period leading up to the Belgrade Pride, numerous hateful messages addressed to the LGBTQ+ population were spread through right-wing communication channels, "Vreme" found when monitoring social networks. Psychologist Vladimir Mihić speaks for "Vreme" about the role of social networks, but also the role of politicians in strengthening that hatred, as well as whether and how it can be eradicated.
In addition to economic and health aspects, which did not receive high marks for justified reasons, a deeper analysis of "well-rated" areas, such as political power and education, reveals controversial issues. There are ten women in the current composition of the Government of Serbia, which represents about 30 percent of the seats in the executive power, the share of women deputies in the National Assembly is about 35 percent, which is also a good percentage of the representation of women in the legislative power. However, what is the real power of female ministers and MPs? How much do they participate in making important decisions and creating public policies
We are all shaken by the deaths that occurred in Novi Sad. The reason why they happened is the lack of control mechanisms and independent institutions, i.e. the necessary result of that in the form of unlimited corruption and negative selection. Those directly responsible have not resigned and explain that they have nothing to do with that "event". They are just trying to gain time, so that this horror would not be forgotten, knowing that they have already made all the institutions meaningless and that there is no one who could bring them to justice, as there has never been before
I have never seen a more senseless decision than three days of mourning in Vojvodina, while in the rest of Serbia it lasted only one day. Where exactly territorially do we stop grieving - when we cross the bridge in Beška or weep all the way to Banovac? Paradoxically, the viewers in Vojvodina have classical music and a changed program, while the national frequency channels are bursting with joy.
"I believe that the members of the SPS and JUL, those who are not mentioned in the newspapers and on television as thieves, rich or that they are suspicious and responsible for some other reason - I believe that they are the ones who made an agreement with the new authorities to that government protects their material and other interests, their rather large wealth, and that in return they contribute to the bribery of their yesterday's comrades and personal friends"
"Refugees have been manipulated like no other population in recent times. Perhaps only the mentally ill were manipulated that way in the Soviet Union during Stalin's reign of terror."
The new authorities shout at the top of their voices that those responsible for the collapse of the state will be tried. Wouldn't it be more logical to rehabilitate the victims first?
In some reflections on the latest events not only in Macedonia but also in the south of Serbia, one hears how the Albanian side is allegedly trying to catch the "last train" for a more comprehensive solution to its own issue and to reach, possibly, a new Dayton by radicalizing the situation on the ground.
Anyone who condemns the regime's targeting of people from the media, the non-governmental sector, the opposition and universities, must not agree to this targeting of RTS editors and journalists either.
The government of Đur Mazut is "counter-revolutionary", focused on retaliation and state and street violence against opponents of the regime
Depriving Dejan Ilić, an intellectual with an impeccable life and work biography, of his freedom, without the slightest meaningful reason, is just one of the brutal indicators that the regime has turned against its own citizens and is entering a phase of terror
