Biber: Studentska lista je izuzetan demokratski eksperiment - Savremena politika Studentski pokret ne može ponuditi sveobuhvatnu političku alternativu, ali to ni nije potrebno. Ovo je borba koja ima za cilj da uspostavi osnovne uslove za politiku.

🔔BiEPAG Coordinator @fbieber.bsky.social for
savremenapolitika.com

🔹Student list in Serbia is an extraordinary experiment in democracy

"The student movement does not offer a comprehensive political alternative, but return of politics to the public space."

After publishing Boguljub Karics tribute to Charlie Kirk, ifmes is now sharing some antisemitic pamphlet about 'Jewish intelligence power' or as I would call it 'The protocols of the elders of Zion'

Odnos EU prema Vučiću se menja, više nije garant stabilnosti - Istinomer Kada predsednik zemlje kandidata za članstvo u EU nazove evroparlamentarce „ološem”, to ne može da prođe nezapaženo. Ne može ni jačanje veza sa Rusijom i Kinom, a ne može ni sve vidljivija represija p...

INTERVJU Biber za "Vijesti": Ako "padne" Vučić, Crna Gora će najviše profitirati Ako bi Crna Gora ušla u EU, koja poruka bi time bila poslata Srbiji: da je razlog zašto ona nije ušla - sadašnja vlast. To nije poželjno za Vučića, i on će raditi ...

A hotel wants to build accommodation for workers on Hvar. HDZ reacts like a far-right party. The plan is urban genocide and population exchange. Classic problem, tourism, yes, workers to actually make work not.
