I'm doing so because I wrote my post on mayday 2014 several hours before almost 50 people were burned to death in Odessa during the siege of the Trade Unions Building by pro-Ukraine soccer hooligans and Right Sector thugs eager to settle scores with pro-Russia protesters (a minority, apparently, unlike the regions in the East of the country). The symbolism (torching a union building!) and the atrocious determination to burn political opponents at the stake has deeply troubled me. <...> # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mx.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: [email protected]
