Experiencing the regime: Belgrade Fair punishes publishers

The decision of the Belgrade Fair to punish publishers who will close their stands on November 1 is the latest scandal and the collapse of the Book Fair's reputation. The regime's trampling of cultural institutions continues

An essay on the inverted language

Since he cannot say "loyalty is more important to me than honor", Aleksandar Vučić will say that he is an honorable man. There are countless such examples. In philosophy, this is called a performative contradiction: by uttering a value judgment, one falls into one's own mouth

Overview of the week

You will not defeat the children of rebellion.

Instead of distancing themselves from the students from Novi Pazar, the people are deeply ashamed of the dishonesty of the police they pay, outraged by the injustice and now they are only looking at how to help them on the march to Novi Sad

Firefighters put out a tent fire in Ćaciland after a shooting in which a VA gunman wounded one man

Comment

Who incited the VA to shoot in Ćacilanda?

The President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, says that the "blockaders", the opposition, and the media are to blame for the shooting in Ćaciland. But only in the quicksand that he created can social pathologies become first-class politics

Serbia and the EU: A slap in the face in Strasbourg after a slap in the face in Belgrade

Did Aleksandar Vučić take seriously the message of the harshest ever Resolution of the European Parliament on Serbia supported by a warning from the European Commission

What happened in Cacileland?

The burning question is not why the tent in Ćaciland caught fire, but what the tent settlement has been asking for in front of the National Assembly for half a year now.

Where did Bule Goncić come from among the blockaders?

Svetislav Bule Goncić, who supports SNS and Vučić, expressed his solidarity with the employees of the National Theater who are demanding the dismissal of Dragoslav Bokan, the management, and the Minister of Culture, Nikola Selaković

The torments of a lonely whipper

From a reliable stabilocrat, Aleksandar Vučić became the biggest threat to stability in his own country and thus to the entire region. Now Ursula told him that too

Suzana Vasiljević's fictional wars and state cleaners

The president's media advisor Suzana Vasiljević, as a journalist, "invented a war" in order to frolic in the sea in Montenegro as long as possible. So now that she's on the other side, she has a solution for all those who make up the seas like she did

Sanctions to the NIS in the bubble of the masters of ignorance

The blow to the stomach of the citizens that follows the US sanctions on NIS is a consequence of the inability of the master of bubbles and the ignorance of Aleksandar Vučić to understand what politics really is

How the Ottomans impaled Vučić

Aleksandar Vučić was very disappointed in his friend Erdogan - and this is convenient for him to present himself as a great patriot

National theater cannot be ruled by threats and money

The money that the state spends on the National Theater to insure it against a possible fire is an attempt to stop another fire, one that can only be prevented by the resignation of SNS cadres at the head of this house

Assembly of Serbia: Participation of the opposition in the semblance of normality

The participation of opposition MPs in the work of the legislature contradicts the street rebellion against lawlessness, gives legitimacy to the autocracy of Aleksandar Vučić and contributes to the appearance of normality. The benefit, on the other hand, is limited

Serbia-Albania: Who is afraid of pumping more?

It has been known for weeks that the regime will not allow another "pumping" from the stands. That is why it has been known for weeks that no one who has not been thoroughly checked will be able to enter the match between Serbia and Albania. The criterion is security - but political

Who does time work for?

Citizens will continue to press the regime with their bodies. Students may turn another circle around Serbia. And the opposition has only one task: to unite

How many of us are there?

The battle between opponents and supporters of the government, the rule of law and lawlessness, good and evil, came down to proving who is more. Not without reason

How many times a day does a progressive eat?

The fact that Vučić sees a "colored revolution" in the fact that students eat three times a day is a testimony of self-projection - he has never experienced support without being paid

Dialogue in the warehouse of missing weapons

As Vučić talks about dialogue, Dacić and Vasiljević talk about the law, the fight against crime and the police, which "none of them are better." It is a pure fake, like everything else under the progressive regime

Legalization like the world has never seen - once again

The new campaign for quick-fire legalization for 100 euros is essentially not much different from the one of ten years ago. Interesting, however, are the subtleties, such as the legalization of wild construction in national parks

So says Jovo Bakić

In the new issue of Vremena, Jovo Bakić said that we would not survive as a society and individuals if the regime won. He is right. The word freedom in such a Serbia would be forbidden, personal integrity would be a reason for arrest, and cowardice - a way of survival.

Regime gatherings as funeral processions

Normal People and Police Brutality: Staying Whole, in Spite of It

This regime is falling because people have stood up who have a clear political stance, clearly distinguish between justice and injustice, but are not organized activists or politically engaged. The regime knows that they are the biggest threat to the survival of the corrupt system because they are the majority in this society. That is why we must protect them at all costs

Two cores of the political gathering

Ideological and moralistic purity cannot defeat the regime of Aleksandar Vučić. It is necessary for citizens to gather around two political cores that jointly strive towards the same goal

Overview of the week

Military parade: Paradero and balancero

Does Aleksandar Vučić have an army? Some advanced cadres would certainly stand behind their "commander-in-chief" at the "given moment". But what about the hull? Well, nothing - the vast majority would slack off, take sick leave, evaporate. They are only there for the money

Jovo Bakić upside down: They chase the people in the streets

"We will chase them through the streets," prophesied Jovo Bakić, and many believed him to be right. Now the reverse is happening - the progressive Sturmabteilung is thrashing the people in the streets, houses and bars. And our bazaar abhors "all violence" for the most part

Only a Serb is beaten by his fan

It's not illogical to be a little afraid of other people's fans when you go to a game, even of the national team. But to be afraid that your people will beat you - that only exists in Serbia
