Message/Greetings from Nikos Maziotis at the International Conference on Political Prisoners
Message/greetings from Nikos Maziotis at the International Conference on Political Prisoners organized by the Prisoners’ Voice Platform (TSP) in Paris (20/12 -21/12/2025)
Comrades, thank you for your invitation to the International Congress of Political Prisoners that you are organizing. I send you my warmest greetings from Domokos Prison, Greece.
If the history of humanity is the struggle of those who aspire to freedom, equality, and solidarity against those who seek to impose slavery, inequality, exploitation, and oppression; if the history of humanity is the struggle of women against patriarchal and sexist power, the struggle of the poor, the people, and the working class against the ruling elites, the rich, the slave owners, the feudal lords, the bureaucrats, or, in today’s terms, against the State and Capital, then this struggle has been paid for with blood. Countless comrades, all over the world, have given their lives in this fight.
They fell in confrontations with the enemy, during clashes with repressive forces, died in prison or during hunger strikes, and were murdered during demonstrations and strikes. Over time, this struggle has cost millions of lives, genocides of entire populations, thousands of years of accumulated imprisonment, as well as torture and isolation. In this social war and class struggle, the current international system of domination, the State and Capital, is not content with simply eliminating us physically or imprisoning us. It demands that we renounce our political identity, our struggle, our organization, the choices of confrontation we have made, revolution, and armed struggle.
It demands that we acknowledge being criminals, terrorists, and social detractors, when these are precisely the defining characteristics of the system it embodies. Our duty, as political prisoners, is therefore to remain faithful and consistent with the choices we have made in our struggle. This is our moral and political victory against the state and capitalist criminals and their apparatus. No revision, then. No repentance for our choices.
We live in an era where the international state-capitalist system of domination is moving towards ever-greater totalitarianism, aiming for the total subjugation of human beings to power and their transformation into docile and depoliticized instruments. The undermining of all the workers’ and popular gains won through past struggles, within the framework of the neoliberal hegemony of recent decades, the anti-terrorism legislation, the hardening of repression and the penal framework, the creation of prisons and special isolation facilities, the criminalization of strikes, and the restriction of the right to demonstrate, all converge towards this objective.
At the same time, imperialist competition between the major industrial powers within the international system of domination, as illustrated, for example, The war in Ukraine and the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza expose the hypocrisy of states and their leaders who invoke “democracy,” “human rights,” or “international law,” etc.
The so-called bourgeois “democracy” has now lost all meaning. Elections are devoid of purpose, since the governments of nation-states, regardless of their ideological leanings and without any popular will, implement policies dictated by the bureaucracies and power centers of the international capitalist-state system (G7, European Union, IMF, NATO, etc.). Their bourgeois “democracy” is increasingly taking on the characteristics of a dictatorship and an authoritarian regime with totalitarian aspirations.
In Greece, following the social defeat of the 2010–2012 uprising against the loan programs imposed by the European Union, the ECB, and the IMF, we are already experiencing the concrete effects of this authoritarianism: the lasting impoverishment of the working classes, permanent austerity, and the continuous hardening of state repression.
But beyond the intensification of exploitation and totalitarianism, the international state-capitalist system, with its logic of infinite growth, its limitless accumulation, and the ecological destruction it engenders, confronts us with a fundamentally existential question: that of our survival as a human species, and indeed the very survival of the Earth and its ecosystems. This ecological catastrophe, with its already irreversible consequences, undoubtedly constitutes one of the most powerful forces driving the people to overthrow the global system of state-capitalist domination. This places us before a fundamentally existential question: that of our survival as a human species, and indeed the very survival of the Earth and its ecosystems. This ecological catastrophe, with its already irreversible consequences, undoubtedly constitutes one of the most powerful driving forces for people to overthrow the global system of state-capitalist domination.
If Rosa Luxemburg formulated the dilemma “Socialism or Barbarism” in her time, today the dilemma is posed in these terms: “Social Revolution or Annihilation.” Despite the difficult conditions in which we live and the bleak future that the State and Capital have in store for us, our struggle to overthrow them must continue at all costs.
Comrades, I wish you strength and courage in the struggle. I wish all political prisoners to hold firm, wherever they are, in prison or in solitary confinement, in Europe, Turkey, Israel, America, everywhere.
SOLIDARITY AND FREEDOM TO ALL REVOLUTIONARIES, ANTI-CAPITALIST, AND ANTI-STATIST POLITICAL PRISONERS

If #money didn't exist or was necessary to be alive I'd be perfectly fine with never #working ever again. I like having so much free time and being able to talk with #people I love and care about whenever I want. I like spending my days playing video games and watching YouTube. I like being MYSELF, and working just doesn't feel like a #fundamental part of my being

Consensus here is clear: the Enrique Tomas Jamón Serrano turrón is the most cursed.
It’s not just the unexpectedly crunchy texture, or the inappropriately salty white chocolate mixture, it’s the way that the white chocolate seems to have been made with ham fat instead of cocoa butter; or at least enough of it that it coats the inside of your mouth and absorbs the moisture out of it leaving an aftertaste of Enrique Tomás quality jamón extra. For those of you not who are not locals, is the ham we sell to tourists because we refuse to touch it.
It’s like all the worst of a tourist zone Ham croquette with added bad quality chocolate.

It's #crazy how we blame #workers for being #overworked by calling it #burnout and #implying that it's kind of like a mental #health issue you need to work through on your own, often with the help of an expensive mental health professional, instead of like a #systemic issue. As if people just unilaterally decide to overwork themselves to the point their mental health deteriorates.
I wish I lived in a country where laws were decided by who has the most money and corporations with the most blackmail..
Kei cars are only illegal because they get money from the automotive industry, just like how these cunts destroyed the train network to sell their overpriced tin can "luxury" cars.
Hay libros que no importa tener varias veces si son ediciones distintas, porque probablemente el libro sea también diferente. Pasa con la biblia, y pasa también con muchos textos clásicos. Hay versiones "Académicas", en las que cada palabra traducida está puesta en su sitio del modo más literal posible y tiene su entrada en un glosario de consulta, y hay versiones "poéticas" en las que prima ante todo mantener la belleza del texto, su estética, su efectividad como narrativa, y por supuesto hay muchos grados intermedios. Pues bueno, esto en la biblia como el mundo está lleno de obsesos es bastante sencillo de averiguar. Qué valores enfatiza la traducción de cada edición.
Me han regalado recientemente la edición de Blackie Books, en la cual ponen de manifiesto en el prólogo sus intenciones. Acuden a un ensayo de Borges escrito en el 32 sobre sus opiniones sobre las traducciones presentes del texto homérico, y de ese ensayo sacan en claro que en vez de realizar una traducción de fuentes antiguas, o de utilizar alguna de las otras traducciones al castellano que existen, van a traducir al español una traducción del inglés (Butler) de 1900, por ser particularmente poética.
Esto para mi es lo más alejado que se puede llegar a tratar de mantener el texto original sin reescribirlo desde cero. Y bueno, al menos en ese sentido está claro qué tipo de libro es. Pero...
Busco entonces para comparar mi vieja edición de bolsillo de La Odisea, editada en 2004 por Grafidico con traducción de un argentino llamado Sergio Albano, el cual debió de ser bastante erudito por las otras cosas que he visto traducidas por él en su ficha. Y ... siendo el texto definitivamente distinto, no me queda claro cual es su enfoque. ¿Es más literal o menos? Este libro no tiene prólogo y no hay información en internet al respecto.
Así que busco otra versión y encuentro la versión de 1927 de Luis Segalá, que se autodescribe como "Versión directa y literal del griego". Por lo que espero una versión académica del texto.
"Háblame, Musa, de aquel varón de multiforme ingenio que, después de destruir la sacra ciudad de Troya, anduvo peregrinando larguisimo tiempo, vió las poblaciones y conoció las costumbres de muchos hombres y padeció en su ánimo gran número de trabajos en su navegación por el ponto, en cuanto procuraba salvar su vida y la vuelta de sus compañeros a la patria. Mas ni aun así pudo librarlos, como deseaba, y todos perecieron por sus propias locuras. ¡Insensatos! Comieronse las vacas del Sol, hijo de Hiperión; el cual no permitió que les llegara el día de regreso. ¡Oh diosa, hija de Zeus! cuéntanos aunque no sea más que una parte de tales cosas."

Article supports: For starters, the numbers make it quite clear that Indian-born workers have an important part to play in the American tech workforce. Data found that around 19% of workers in STEM are foreign-born. The National Science Foundation found that 30% of these STEM workers are from India.
Supporters of de-Indianizing argue that foreign-based workers force average wages to decrease, and that makes it harder for Americans to compete for the same positions.

Curieusement, je parie que les bons clients paieront quand même en temps et en heure. Les autres auront pour une fois une excuse à moitié valable. "Blocages des virements interbancaires : pourquoi vous ne pourrez pas faire de transferts jusqu’à lundi 29 décembre" lemonde.fr/argent/article/2025…
L’interruption devrait avoir des conséquences limitées alors que d’autres solutions existent pour transférer de l’argent entre comptes de particuliers.
@Witch_Hunter_Siegfried see you Fren. If my Internet can ever stay up, I'll start chatting with you in discord again. I miss doing that. 💚 Merry Christmas.
