Quick review....
[/url]
"Work for young people..."
When protest began in Maribor and Ljubljana, at that time in coalition, SDS - Slovenian Democratic Party launched by twitter "Communist International, the rhetoric of the civil war, totalitarian symbols? Uprising of zombies, but not the uprising of the nation". Later protesters start making fun of that...
On the sign " our property "
A few months ago, signed the directive on "Liberalisation of water" in the EU.
"Water in the Constitution"
"Water resources of Slovenia"
"Water is our. Water has always been our property, and we dont want to buy it from corporations which will make profits from our hard work."

"The ruling party that supports corruption have been changed for the ruling party that supports corruption and you call it change!"
"Novel 1984 is not meant as instructions for use" (George Orwell- 1984)
NLB - Nova Ljubljana Bank, the largest Slovenian bank. Due to vested interests of political and economic elites, which are connected, the Bank's management in recent years, approved many unsecured loans which are harmful to the bank. All loans were and going to be repaid by taxpayers.
Below the advertising slogan by NLB "I know why" there is sticker with known sign "Our property"
"We do not need lying bankers.
We do not need loans without moral"
(In the picture, red initials mean NLB - largest slovenian bank, second- NKBM - another slovenian bank with very bad financial situation)

I think there is no need for explanation
Sign on poster behind is against Janez Janša, he is president of SDS - Slovenian Democratic Party and ex prime minister.
"Can someone give Janša blowjob, so he finally stop making mess in this country"
Poster which is held by man in black it says: " Politicians are like sperm -
only one in a million it turns out that he has a conscience"
In this poster shows Zoran Janković in the fridge, he's the mayor of Ljubljana and ex President of Positive Slovenia, the party currently forming a coalition. By the switch is Alenka Bratušek, now President of that party and Prime Minister. Due to suspicion and allegations of corruption, Zoran Janković then as president of the party gave its status froze until he proves his innocence. Today it is no longer president of the party, but he remains the mayor of Ljubljana.
Sign on poster says " Zoki go away" , Zoki is informal nickname of Zoran Janković.....

"Belt tightening policy (this statement is often used, as a common sense description for austerity measures) had not given any significant results, so let's try with growth ensuring policy."
What is interesting about this banner is its form. The message of a banner is expressed through the form of political comics, which is named "Diareja" (eng. diarrhea) and is published since 1988, weekly in the jurnal "Mladina". Diareja is a short political parody comic, containing only two to four shots or segments that comically criticizes actual political, public and social issues. Its composition contains a visual siplicity (but there is always clear who or what is a specific person or organisation that is adressed as an object of satirization) with strong message.
The original author of "Diareja" is Slovenian comics artist Tomaz Lavric. |

Objavljeno: 09 Apr 2013 09:04 Naslov sporočila: The 4th all-slovenian uprising on the 9th of March |
|
|
The main theme of the 4th all-slovenian uprising were the stickers with the inscription »Our property«.
As Ana already pointed out, the idea for them originates from the directive of EU on Liberalisation of water. Slovenian protesters took the idea of water as a natural resource that is and should remain common and expanded the notion of common to other areas: with marking a building or an institution with a sticker, protesters wanted to emphasize the importance of it.
For me, the most eloquent was the sticker that ended up on a police van near the city hall, especially because there was a lot of police violence against the protesters at the previous uprisings (both in Ljubljana and in Maribor).
[/url]
The next interesting use of the sticker was by a protester, who transformed the inscription »Our property« into »Our power«.
Near Kongresni trg, which was the main gathering ground for the protesters of the 4th all-slovenian uprising, I found this graffiti: »Throughout the country, signs that say: 'Power to the people' are appearing«.
Uprisings in Slovenia are not directed only against slovenian political elite but are also critical towards capitalism as prevailing economic system that reproduces inequalities: »Capitalism doesn't work. A different world is possible.«
On pasivity and awakening of the people: »I am quiet, you are quiet, he is quiet, we are all quiet, they are stealing. Slovenia, wake up!«
Due to political crisis in the country, people felt as if politicians were putting up a show, that serves only to maintain status quo of those, who are in power. The following poster is ilustrative enough:
