102. I've seen the vids
On anarchist forums I've been telling my - very critical - opinion of how kukulofori acted that day, also beforehand, passing leaflets of instigating violence. History of "commies" betraying and killing anarchists etc. goes deep and there is need for lot of healing, and KKE is certainly not helping.

Being critical of the one side does not mean the other side was right. I am both sides and I speak from personal experience when I say that centralism and hierarchical power structures just don't work, they are the source of evil and division. But we need our time to learn that lesson, each of us.

That said, what happened that day on Syntagma square was sad and terrifying for all of us, and to start healing, we need to stop taking sides with one violent side against other violent side. I know both sides from personal experience, but most of all I'm anti-capitalist, for our children, and I don't like us to get divided by any divisive ideology. I like food. I'm both translator and gardener.

Please don't take sides with the other side using violent tactics. If you want peace, be a peacemaker. And if you are not that principled Gandhian, let's not fight each other. Let's throw yoghurt over politicians and cops, in that case, together.
