PRESS RELEASE FOR THE POLYTECHNEIO ANNIVERSARY
For this yearʼs Anniversary of the Polytechneio Day, the most bitter and scarring for all those of us who had had to live through its ordeal and bled as a result and did not cash it in, remaining faithful to the Peopleʼs Demands then, those that have remained unaltered since the German Occupation, we need to state THAT WE ARE HERE, WE ARE FIGHTING AT THE FRONT AGAINST THE TOTALITARIANISM OF THIS COVERED UP JUNTA THAT DESPERATELY TRIES TO MAINTAIN A BANKRUPT PARLIAMENTARIANISM.
Polytechneio not only lives on and threatens the enemies of the Greek People and of Hellas, but has already inflicted a grave strike against the propaganda efforts of the government cronies:
BEARING IN MIND ONLY THE FACT THAT THEY FELT THE NEED TO UNLEASH THEIR CRONIES ACROSS THE MASS MEDIA NETWORKS ON THEIR PAYROLL TO AGRUE AGAINST THE FACT THAT WE ARE UNDER A JUNTA REGIME AMOUNTS TO THE TANGIBLE PROOF THAT WE ARE NOT A DEMOCRACY
* THAT HE OR SHE HAS TO ENDURE TOTALITARIANISM IN THE FORM OF POLITICAL PERSECUTION, DE FACTO ANNULMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION, AND GOVERNMENTAL ANARCHY, ANOMIE AND ABSOLUTISM HARDLY CROSSES THE MIND OF A CITIZEN OF A DEMOCRATIC REGIME.
*A DEMOCRACY DOES NOT NEED POLICING AND FORCES OF SUPPRESSION TO GUARD THE SO-CALLED REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE FROM THE RULLING PEOPLE.
*THERE IS NO NEED TO BARICADE AND CORDON-OFF PEOPLE FROM ATTENDING NATIONAL ANNIVERSARIES THAT HONOUR PEOPLEʼS RESISTANCE, PAY TRIBUTE TO FREEDOM AND UPHOLD HUMAN RIGHTS.
*UNDER NO DEMOCRATIC REGIME IS THE STATE REDUCED TO ʽTREATMENTʼ MEASURES AS IF IT WERE SICK, BY MEANS OF MEMORANDA, FOREIGN OVERSIGHT AND SUPERVISION.
*UNDER NO DEMOCRATIC REGIME WILL THERE BE A BLATAND VIOLATION OF THE CONSTITUTION TO LEGALISE THEIR COUPS, THEIR EMBEZZLEMENTS, AND THE REST OF THEIR ODIOUS AND HINEOUS CRIMES, THAT ARE SYSTEMATICALLY AND CONTINUALLY EXPOSED BY THE RULING PEOPLE.
*UNDER A DEMOCRATIC REGIME, THE POPULACE IS NOT SYSTEMATICALLY ROBBED, LETTING THEIR CHILDREN GO HUNGRY, DOES NOT PERMIT THE THREAT OF GENOCIDE AND COMPLETE ERADICATION TO HOVER ABOVE THE COUNTRY, DEMONSTRATIONS ARE NOT BANNED, AND THERE IS NO NEED FOR TAKEOVERS.
Polytechneio shreds to pieces the last remnants of the cover of ʽdemocratic facadeʼ that every dictator dons, proclaiming ʽdemocracyʼ only to murder every form of its defence in the most efficient manner.
We are all here! The whole of Greece is a great Polytechneio today and we all resist this illegal, totalitarian, anarchic, anomic junta:
We all together will crush fascism so that we can live as Humans and family people in our country which we shall work so that it will bloom by us for us.
LONG LIVE DEMOCRACY!
LONG LIVE THE POLYTECHNIC!
LONG LIVE 120Σ (FORMER 1-1-4)!
Olga and Tanya Geritsidou
