Communique #3 (17 December 2008)

An answer from the liberated building of GSEE Panagopoulos declared this morning that we are not workers, since workers are at work.

This, among many other things, reveals what Panagopoulos' "job" really is. Panagopoulos' "job" is to make sure that workers are at work, to do everything within his reach to secure that workers are at work.

But for the last ten days, workers are not only at work, they are out on the streets. And this is a fact that Panagopoulos and every Panagopoulos can't hide, even if he succeeds in hiding the sun that brings light to our steps and rage onto the streets of this city.

We are working people, we are jobless (paying in layoffs our participations in strikes called by GSEE, when they -the trade unionists- are rewarded with promotions), we are working under contract moving from job to job, we work insecured formally or informaly in "stage" progams or in subsidied jobs to lower the unemployment indices. We are part of this world and we are here.

Whoever wants to understand can understand. We are insurgent workers, end of story. Every single one of our revenue stamps is paid with blood, sweat, violence, broken waists, broken hands, knees, feet, heads. The entire world is made by us, the workers.

PS. We heard on the radio that our act was an artistic happening. We accept this characterization, but only as far as the proletariat will abolish art and philosophy (along with state and capital)...
