A reality by leaning
We live immersed in a sea of tragedies that seem to have no end. From the consequences of Covid-19 Pandemic to the devastating consequences of the war in Ukraine, humanity faces a series of crises that leave us powerless. The situation in Palestine and the natural disasters that reach the planet amplify this sense of collective anguish. As spectators of a macabre show, we are trapped, without being able to express our rejection.
A Context of Despair
The current conservative revolution is the highlight of a neoliberal model that began to gain strength after the defeat of the labor movement in the 1970’s. Now, we are not only spectators, but we have become victims of a system that keeps us divided and helpless. The imperialist wars between states, along with the increase in environmental catastrophes, hit us daily, while militarization and depoliticization grow in hand.
The paralysis of critical thinking
The condition of a victim imposed by neo -fascism not only affects our lives, but also asphyxiates critical thinking. Accepting the premises that they offer, such as immigration is a problem, limits us the capacity for resistance and transformation. The renunciation of innovation and the lack of courage lead us to adaptation, to resignation to reality.
The reaction: the Soulèvements of the Terre
However, what is presented as an unexpected can be the key to transformation. The French movement of the Soulèvements de la Terre represents a radical and collective response against the forces that oppress us. This group, born of the fight against an airport in Notre-Dame-de-Landes, has grown exponentially, mobilizing tens of thousands of people to defend the territory.
Direct and transformative actions
Their actions go beyond the words. Through infrastructure blockages that promote environmental disaster, festive dismantling of toxic industries and land occupations, this movement seeks to hit where it really hurts. His philosophy challenges passive acceptance and seeks small victories that motivate to continue fighting.
A future without superstitions
The Soulèvements of the Terre are not just a movement; They are the materialization of a paradigm shift. As Marx stated, social revolutions must be born of the future, not the past. This group has avoided the superstitions that are trapped in a cycle of repetitions and closed paths. Its strength lies in diversity and its ability to join for a common cause.
A new way
With each action, the Soulèvements de la Terre remind us that the power of nature and the desire for change are stronger than the forces that want to silence us. After all, we are invited to abandon our status as victims and to embrace our collective force, promoting a future where environmental and social justice is a reality.
