Tactics as well as strategy as well as class composition and organization of struggling forces are grounded in specific contexts. These young Greek people, who have been in a bad situation for a while (witness the 2008 riots), have just had their lives thrown in the wastebasket by a socialist government. I understand three socialist ministers who did not vote for austerity were sacked from the cabinet by Papandreou. That these children are young, reckless and so forth goes without saying. However, they are quite correct in perceiving that they have just been royally fucked over. I have no desire to expend my energies at this time in joining the Greek socialists and the Greek, European and American establishment in waving my finger at them and telling them they have gotten too out of hand. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
