Personal attitude

No one is a tyrant to the slave.

If they are not afraid of their freedom, the citizens of Serbia will replace the current government in the elections, and if they persist in resisting submission, they will soon dethrone the next government and the one after it. The next few election cycles are an opportunity to strengthen the republic, and there are two ultimate outcomes. If they admit to themselves that they possess public virtue and dare to implement its commandments, the citizens will force the "great ones" to discover satisfaction in serving the public interest within the Republic.

Philosophical essay

Politics and punctuation of life

The role of politics is not to lock life into stable patterns, but to enable the coexistence of different rhythms, states and relationships. Restlessness and addiction then cease to be private burdens and become politically relevant signals that life remains open, exposed and unfinished.

None of us has the right to give up our freedom. It is unacceptable to lose heart. Leaving the last line of defense is unacceptable.

The last line of defense: He's done!

None of us have the right to give up our freedom. It is unacceptable to lose heart. Leaving the last line of defense is unacceptable. Because the barbarian attack on prosecutors and judges is their last attack. Beyond that is the abyss

Lucifer's envoy to Serbia

The fire becomes an eternal flame. The student rebellion made an incredible, until a short time ago, unimaginable contribution to the development of the democratic consciousness of this nation. Stop talking about them as the future. They are the present. We have been waiting for them for decades, let's not let them disperse. Reliance on violence is a reliable indicator that the regime is entering a terminal phase

The intoxicating taste of power

Craze for power, and the complete renunciation of it, forms of behavior that are easily observed in authoritarian societies, are not the result of greed or self-satisfaction alone, but have deep roots in our evolutionary history. Every autocrat and dictator, even in our age, is doing the same thing that our ancestors did for the last three hundred million years, and many animal species are still doing it today. And it is not at all funny that Trump, Vucic and Erdogan do everything the same as some lizards, swallows, wild dogs or baboons. If these instincts are so deeply rooted in us, is there even a cure for the obsession with power

Love of freedom

It is an additional problem when you need to get rid of an autocrat or a dictator whose last name rhymes with yours. Many people then do not realize that various freedoms can be denied to them despite the fact that there is no external invader, that, for example, freedom of speech almost completely disappears, which, as we have seen in Serbia in recent decades, we recognize above all through the suppression of media freedoms

Student protest: Courage to think for oneself

It is comfortable to be guided. You hold out the handle and go where they lead you. You don't think so. You don't ask. You let yourself go. You listen to the leader. You don't get out of self-inflicted immaturity. Serbian students refuse it

Responsibility will be sought on the street

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

Two years of war in Ukraine: Freedom is at stake

By forgetting the Ukrainian war, we also forgot the true stake of this entire story: freedom. Although we all yearn for concrete solutions here and now, and we are more interested in the momentum of the war industry of Europe and Russia than in vain philosophizing about freedom, actually the philosophical loop about freedom is at the very core of our understanding of the war in Ukraine. Without it, we could easily sink into complete oblivion and complete indifference

The realm of freedom

The entry of far-right parties into the political mainstream has been a topic in the media, academic and political circles for years. Despite this, the trend of strengthening the right is more and more stable. The question is whether its causes are correctly identified and addressed
