The Olympics and Social Cleansing

thegreatdamfino:

‘The story in each city remains almost identical.  Once selected, a city expends vast amounts of public resource to begin a program of forced displacement, rental speculation, urban renewal projects, demolition of public housing and gentrification. In fact, if there is one thread that runs through almost every Olympic event it is that the poor of each Games subsidise their own violent dispossession.’

Did you know that the Olympics is one of the world’s leading causes of displacement?

I Love Bosnia But I Hate The Politicians!

I love this guy, he’s amazing ahha, I also agree with what he says. & he’s hilarious when he swears in Bosnian bahahaha.

I think in the whole world things are going very badly. People are becoming more materialist and cruel … Cruel by laziness, by indifference, egotism, because they only think about themselves and not at all about what is happening around them, so they let everything grow ugly and stupid. They are all interested in money only. Money is becoming their God. God doesn’t exist for many. Money is becoming something you must live for. You know, even your astronauts, the first one who put his foot on the moon, said that when he first saw our earth, he said it was something so miraculous, so marvelous, don’t spoil it, don’t touch it. More deeply I feel the rotten way they are spoiling the earth. All the countries. Silence doesn’t exist anymore; you can’t find it. That, for me, would make it impossible to live.

Do not blame people and their attitudes: the problem is not corruption or greed, the problem is the system that pushes you to be corrupt. The solution is not, “Main Street, not Wall Street,” but to change the system where Main Street cannot function without Wall Street.

Neo-imperialism under the guise of, more commonly known as capitalism, free market, and neoliberalism.

We talk about neo-imperialism a lot in my anthro class, and people are like “wat no it’s all good.”

Sweden should be on this map, too! Murky business going on, with two swedish journalists, Martin Schibbye and Johan Persson, who were investigating Lundin Petroleums possible crimes against international laws, now sentenced to eleven years in Ethiopian prison,  acused of terrorcrime. Carl Bildt should figure with his own flag here..
