I just read an article on my homepage about the Greek insurrections. It was mostly just the usual stuff (they attacked the second christmas tree, they threw garbage on it....lol). But I noticed at the end of the article they mentioned "protest fatigue". My question is, do you think the Greeks will be able to keep their momentum going, will they be able to take this farther? Would it be possible for a full out revolution to be born from this insurrection? Or, as the corporate press mentioned, will this so called "protest fatigue" set in, and will the insurrection die out? I'm asking these questions because the events that are taking place in Greece are only the second instance of a major revolt taking place in a country, in which anarchists are heavily involved, and all of it happening within my lifetime. The only other instance of revolt that has occurred in my lifetime were the WTO protests in 1999, in Seattle, but I was only 7 when that happened. I don't want the Greeks to give up, I don't want to see this fade out into nothingness.
Thoughts?
....And yes I'm aware of the fact that the WTO protests and the Greek Insurrection aren't the ONLY revolts to take place in my lifetime, but they are the only two that have garnered massive attention from anarchists, I maybe wrong though.
Oh, and the RNC/DNC protests too, but they didn't really accomplish much.
Free the RNC 8!!! w00t w00t!
