Civil protests in Serbia seek to return sovereign power to the legal and legitimate holder of the highest authority: the people. It's as if they shaved in ancient Rome 2500 years ago during the reign of Anastasius I
The President announces a large gathering in Belgrade in barely filled rural centers of culture. He only hopes that the other side will not be able to see things through. And then they will be blessed
Why student whistles are the most gruesome testimony, and calling students "Serbian Ustasha" is not. And why do Vučić and Diodik sing "Peace, brother, peace" in a duet after "We are stronger than fate", relying on the mercy of strangers
The "combing" of non-governmental organizations is a confrontation with critics of the regime. If not, the prosecutor would first knock on the door of Ana Brnabić, who was the thorn in the side of USAID. Those who "comb" are for Ana the third league
The young and smart world took to the streets and took wit with them. Humor is important for relieving fear, but not only that - it is substantially political
In Serbia, no one knows what its president is talking about anymore, journalists are punished by God's justice, scandal-mongering magnates are declared saints, and public office holders spread public scandal. People - how long will we go like this
No one who has not had a part of their brain removed with a shovel believes that the students secured the largest foreign investment ever, i.e. that they received three billion euros to overthrow the government and secede from Vojvodina.
The Fest board has decided that the festival will no longer be held in February but in September. One gets the impression that the solution of this secondary problem is actually just an announcement of the solution of the essential one
A liar knows the difference between reality and lies. That is why he is a liar. That is why it is considered reasonable. But we are no longer sure that Aleksandar Vučić makes that distinction
There are not two Serbias, but only one that converged in Kragujevac for the Sretenje. If the kleptocrats and false prophets who rode on it don't wake up, it won't exist
When students can walk to Kragujevac in ice, snow and rain, holding each other - spending the night in greenhouses at a seriously minus temperature - you can also sit in a car, bus or wagon, and follow them
The sale of parts of United Group is bad news for media freedom in Serbia and the right of citizens to be informed. But how lucky is that to be the only bad news...
In the old-fashioned secessionist experience, usually the inhabitants of a certain territory initiate the process of secession from another part of the territory where some other people live. Namely, it is not noticeable (so far) that the territory wants to secede against the will of its own inhabitants
"Cobra" commander Colonel Darko Đošić should resign or kill himself as a moral act because of the tire of Vučić's official car. Of course, if everything the Informer published is true
Aleksandar Vučić complained that "because of everything they do to him", his parents are suffering badly. Mothers and fathers of daughters who have been trampled or had their jaws broken by a baseball bat - they do not suffer. On this basis, the head of state offered a dialogue
The longer the student and popular uprising lasts, the more the question arises whether the demands will become more "political" - say, a transitional government and fair elections. But the chances of interrooms and banter are also increasing, which are a sure recipe for the end of the protest
Culture Minister Nikola Selaković was aware of the whistles under his window. Just as the cultists in the blockade of his Ministry saw that people were greeting them from the window of that same Ministry. They seemed united, that they were on the same side. Selakovic was alone.
The students realized that there was a struggle for meanings, in which one name was not mentioned: the name of the dictator. Because if that name appeared in their requests, it would "eat" the requests themselves
If we let this student rebellion eat our children, we should crawl into a rat hole and never come out again
Aleksandar Vučić claims that he will never agree to the transitional cabinet. He should be trusted, but conditionally. Why? Because he will agree to anything as soon as he is forced to. And it will be
The Serbian opposition is well on its way to miss an opportunity by not engaging in politics, not knowing how to come to an agreement and repeating the disastrous formula "first to fulfill student demands"
The beating of students in Novi Sad can only surprise someone who knows nothing about progressive Novi Sad. The decade-long negative selection ended there by the so-called only criminals and scoundrels remained in the government structures
No matter how the regime media explained it, the students overthrew the government of Miloš Vučević. His resignation is buying time in case Aleksandar Vučić finds a way to turn the game around
The people who killed dialogue in this country are now calling for it. You are no longer in charge. The students did. Your hand of reconciliation is bloody up to the elbow, and that's why you won't even touch the students with it
From the announcement of the Serbian Orthodox Church, a simple conclusion follows: the protesting students are antichrists, and Aleksandar Vučić is the embodiment of Svetosava values.
At first, the student demands seemed unambitious, unrevolutionary and easy to fulfill. However, this is not so
The support that the Aleksandar Vučić regime received from Moscow and Washington during the unprecedented wave of protests spoils the crazy story that someone "from the outside" is toppling Vučić. On the contrary, the people must do this work themselves
