Στείλε όταν φτάσεις
Το μοιραίο αυτό το βράδυ στις 28 Φλεβάρη,
πολλοί νέοι φοιτητές υπέγραψαν το συμβόλαιο θανάτου τους.
Πού να ΄ξεραν τι θα τους συμβεί
Πού να ΄ξεραν ότι εκείνη θα είναι η τελευταία τους πνοή.
Στείλε όταν φτάσεις είπε η μάνα στο παιδί
όμως πού να ΄ξερε τι επρόκειτο να συμβεί.
Μπορεί να ήθελαν τόσα πολλά να πουν, να γελάσουν, να χαρούν
όμως τα γέλια αυτά έγιναν λυγμοί, πόνος ίσως και οργή.
Ιστορίες, δικαιολογίες.
Πάμε κι όπου βγει,
πάμε κι όπου βγει,
ενώ τόσοι άνθρωποι έχουν τώρα πλέον χαθεί.
Η ανευθυνότητα και η απραγία,
ο χειρισμός και τα συμφέροντα είναι η σημερινή μας κοινωνία.
Δεν γίνεται εν έτη 23 να μιλούμε ακόμη για ασφάλεια και προστασία.
Δεν είναι ούτε το μέρος ούτε η κακιά στιγμή,
είναι στη χώρα που πρέπει να γίνει αλλαγή.
Είναι ο νους του ανθρώπου και ο τρόπος σκέψης και αν δεν αλλάξει αυτό είμαστε καταδικασμένοι.
Καταδικασμένοι στη δουλεία και στον ύπνο
μη μπορώντας να σηκώσουμε ανάστημα.
Να πούμε την αλήθεια μας, την φωνή μας,
τον τρόπο σκέψης μας και τη βούληση μας.
Έπρεπε να χαθούν ανθρώπινες ψυχές, για να καταλάβουμε ότι βρισκόμαστε σε νάρκη,
αφήνοντας κάποιους να μας οδηγούν σε αποτρόπαια λάθη.
Ακούω επανειλημμένα ότι η νέα γενιά είναι το μέλλον.
Ότι θα είναι διαφορετικά.
Γιατί λοιπόν να σκοτώνουμε το μέλλον μας;
Γιατί να καταδικαζόμαστε από τη στιγμή που γεννιόμαστε;
Ποιος θα μας σώσει όταν καιγόμαστε;
Ποιος θα μας καθοδηγήσει όταν πνιγόμαστε;
Πολλά γιατί και απορίες,
πολλά τα θα και ακόμα περισσότερες οι υποσχέσεις.
Υποσχέσεις χωρίς πράξεις
και πράξεις χωρίς αντίκτυπο.

Rage, fire and riot in Thessaloniki over the deadliest ever train crash in Greece (8 March 2023)
Greece: a country in mourning, still in shock, following the death of 57 people in a train crash at Tempe, the deadliest in the country and one of the worst in Europe.
8 days later the dead passengers, mainly young students, were still being buried and people continue to protest against the crime executed by the neoliberal government and a private company, that chose to sacrifice passenger safety for profit, resulting in a passenger service train, carrying more than 350 people, ramming into a freight train, just before midnight on Tuesday 28 February 2023, after they ended up on the same track mainly due to the lack of technical equipment and the incompetence of the stationmaster, causing the front carriages to burst into flames. Ongoing revelations of staff shortages and substandard equipment have revealed the dangerous state of the privatized rail network. It was indeed an accident waiting to happen.
During the first 8 days, almost all protests in Athens were brutally attacked by the so-called “mourning” riot police, under the orders of Mitsotakis government that pretends to care, while they even close down all metro stations around a protest's starting point to deter people from joining them. Such is the government's sincerity and repentance for the blood of 57 people on their hands.
Just a few months before the parliamentary elections, the situation in Greece is unpredictable, with a criminal government employing cops to attack and crash mourning vigils, demonstrations and protests, in a place where there is no justice, nor peace.
While the government still tries to evade assuming full responsibility for the train disaster, a general nationwide strike and new protests have been announced for Thursday, 16 March 2023.

So today marks the 1 year since the tragic train collision in Tempi, Greece that caused the loss of 57 people, mostly students in their 20s. I never see stuff about my country on my dash so I thought I'd give a quick run down for the sake of it. I don't write such things often so I'll try to keep it short and informative.
Two trains collided and subsequently exploded on this day at Tempi, a location notorious for other mass casualty accidents. I don't know which international source to look to, the language barrier is big and we're the country with lowest ranking in the freedom of press index in Europe [x]. The reason for this collision that killed at least 57 people was that although the railway was equipped with automatic controls, the switching and signaling was done manually and a lack of communication led to the lines not switching, causing a head on collision to occur. They tried to point it on human error, that the stationmaster who had only been working there for a month was unqualified for the job, which may be true but also serves as a great way to absolve of any fault the higher-ups who were aware of the lack of safety in the railways, as evidenced by later investigation showing multiple warnings sent to the respective officials from the train drivers' official body.
The victims' families were understandably not satisfied by the official investigation and decided to file a criminal lawsuit against the Prime Minister and other politicians connected to the crime. I believed they also organized an investigation of their own.
Now I don't watch the news because they don't help my depression and knowing you're being lied to is also not a positive thing. Evidence has been lost, they poured concrete over the site of the accident and built a church on it, they took so much time to find the black box that it was unusable by the time they recovered it, the church is calling for the families to "mourn silently" if they want to honor the memory of their lost ones. The former Minister of Infrastructure and Transport happens to be from my hometown. Embarrassingly in the elections that followed the "accident" this same town re-elected him. I don't even wanna get into this.
I don't have much to say, I just wanted to spread some awareness around, it's the least I can do. As a side note, I don't know what kind of tourism propaganda our government serves outside of the borders but please don't believe them. Don't come to Greece, it's not the Mediterranean paradise you see in pics.
Thank you if you read this.

Αξιοπρέπεια κι αρχές λείπουν ταξίδι
και την καρδιά μας που διψά ποτίζουν ξύδι
Ματαιόδοξοι μασόνοι κυβερνάνε ρε
μα οι μεγάλοι χορηγοί που πολύ μας αγαπάνε
«Θα μας γλιτώσουν» «είναι σπουδαίοι»
Θα μας αφήσουν να ρημάξουμε στα βράχια τελευταίοι
Δημοκρατία κι αξιοκρατία πλέον πωλούνται σε πανέρια σε ευκαιρία
Μα εμείς πονάμε αυτό τον τόπο,
σφίγγουμε δόντια και λουριά για την Ελλάδα ρε γαμώτο
Νομίζουνε ποτέ δε θα μιλάμε,
όμως τα πρόβατα τους λύκους θα τους φάνε

Το σεβασμό σου στη μνήμη μας δώσε
Το έγκλημα τους μην αφήσεις να ξεχαστεί
Δε βρίσκει λόγια να μιλήσει η οργή μας
Για αυτούς που βάφουν με το αίμα μας
Τη γη μας

Update on the train incident I posted about earlier.
In case you don't know what I'm talking about, on the 28th of February, a head-on collision occurred between two trains south of the Tempi Valley, near the village of Evangelismos in Thessaly, Greece. The collision, involving the IC62 passenger train and an intermodal freight train, killed at least 57 people, making it the deadliest rail disaster in Greek history and also the deadliest in Europe since the Santiago de Compostela derailment in 2013.
What's been happening ever since is ridiculous, because the vast majority of news anchors on TV have been trying way too hard to push the trainmaster as the sole person responsible for the incident.
At this point two things should be noted.
A. Said trainmaster was grossly unqualified for the position he was put in, reportedly by a politician friend who is still unknown to the public
B. Greece is the lowest ranking EU country for press freedom
I think you can put two and two together, but while obviously the trainmaster should be held responsible as far as his part is concerned. So should the media who consistently ignored train workers going multiple strikes to complain about the unsafe condition of the railway system and had already warned that it was only a matter of time before a serious accident would happen literally a month ago. So should the former transport minister, Kostas Achilleas Karamanlis, who resigned after the incident but would not hear the various warnings by the train workers and would immediately declare their strikes as illegal. Both he and the prime minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis kept saying that the way the railroad system was operating during the previous government was unsafe and would eventually cause accidents and were bragging about fixing it yet they knowingly did nothing. There are videos of the prime minister arriving at the site of the incident and a bunch of his yesmen directing him at how to appear to look sad, shouting out to him to lower his head and stuff like that.
GPS tracking technology has been purchased TWENTY THREE years ago and has inexplicably not been installed yet. Meaning that every single person in power since 2000 has purposefully ignored the much needed upgrade. Trains have no way of tracking each other other than radio communication which is ridiculous. The two trains that crashed into each other were allowed to move on the same track because the stationmaster at Larissa, who had only been working for one month there, ordered the train to proceed and pass red signals all the way to Neoi Poroi and ordered his assistant – the switchman – to not "turn the keys" (realign the switches) as a local train would be crossing them. The section where the accident took place, located 27.3 kilometres (17.0 miles) north of Larissa, was double-tracked and equipped with automatic controls, but switching and signalling were still being controlled manually.
The European Union announced that they had allocated tons of funds to upgrade the railway system that were never properly invested and were literally about to take Greece to court for the condition of the railway system being a literal health hazard.
The following video features scenes of police brutality.
On the left you can see Kyriakos Mitsotakis' social media post addressing the situation. I could actually translate for you but it's nothing more than empty words. On the right you can see policemen cracking down on people who gathered outside Hellenic Train's headquarters by firing tear gas and using excessive violence. The man with the blurred face exclaims that he was offering medical assistance when the policemen arrested him. The policeman yelling in his face is screaming "What are you doing here? Are you Albanian? Are you a commie? What are you?" And lastly you can see the prime minister in one of his previous speeches inside the parliament formally apologising for anyone who has been affected by police brutality in the past (at this point it should also be noted that during his reign of terror, police brutality incidents have been an at all time high as far as recent years go. He has also seriously overfunded and overhired the police during the last few years)
It should finally be noted that the Monday before the train crash took place was a national holiday, and many of the train passengers were university students in their 20s who had gone back home for the long weekend and were now returning back to their universities in northern Greece
At least 57 people were killed, and 80 others were injured, with 25 of them suffering serious injuries. Of the injured, 66 were hospitalized, with six being admitted to intensive care units. Identifying some victims was challenging due to the high temperatures reaching up to 1,300 degrees Celsius (2,370 degrees Fahrenheit) inside the first carriage. Six Albanians, two Cypriot students and a citizen of Romania are among the dead.
As a closing statement, I'd like to share a quote that's been flying around social media ever since the above incidents took place.
"The few kids that we didn't chase away abroad, boarded the train to go study.
The ones who survived went to protest for those who died.
We beat up those ones."
