No one will probably have an official census of how many of the more than 1.700 schools in Serbia are open on Monday and how many are not.

Another protest by educators who today left messages in front of the Government of Serbia: "Not everyone has the money to buy diplomas", "Crna Slavica" and others has ended.

The audience, although already experienced in consuming fake reality from the bottom of the tub, is still not sure what is staged and what is reality.
