Dear Europe - A Call To Vote for Unity, Against Authoritarianism

Dear Europe - A Call To Vote for Unity, Against Authoritarianism

 Far right parties and authoritarian leaders are standing for election
throughout Europe. This video lays out some of the issues we face, but
boiling it all down to encouraging people to vote is reductionist and
does not take into account the wider systemic problems. With an
entrenched economic and political system that doesn't work for the
majority, no matter who is elected at the moment the underlying problems
will persist. Alternatives that offer a move toward true direct democracy
are desperately needed but still sadly lacking in many places. There
are exceptions, from the Icelandic Pirate Party to the 15-M movement in
Spain, that are truly democratic, bottom-up, ways of organising. We're
in the process of curating an article that looks at these sorts of
movements and would love to get your input. Please comment and let us
know what you think are the most promising political movements right
now.
