When a government sends police into a university, it sends a clear message: dissent is unwelcome.
In Novi Sad, students and professors protesting the dismissal of Professor Jelena Kleut were removed by force from the Faculty of Philosophy.

Continuing the thread from Serbia, last night I went to the launch of a platform documenting police violence/repression against Serbian citizens in protests, starting from the aleged use of sound canon on 15 March to the large-scale operation to suppress the protest in Novi Sad on 5 September 1/
Silence: in Serbia, people are still marking 16 minutes of silence, for the 16 people killed in the collapse of the Novi Sad railway station canopy in November 2024, which sparked nationwide protests. Today I stood in this one, organised by students of Mathematical High School in Belgrade. 1/3

Rarely does a story so perfectly encapsulate authoritarianism, crony capitalism, Trump’s greed and garishness, destruction of cultural heritage and calls for national rebirth after collective victimhood. Definitive article on this is by @filipejdus.bsky.social

Latest poll: 44% for the student list, 32% for Vučić-led block.

The regime lost majority despite almost total control of the media and the misuse of all the public resources to discredit, repress, intimidate and silence critics.

Majority for Elections, Majority for Change - CRTA
According to new research conducted by CRTA, nearly two-thirds of citizens see the calling of early elections as a way out of the crisis.

Vučić now calls student protestors “satanists” obviously in an attempt to pit them against the religious people. The regime seems to be running out of labels to discredit the movement, as all the others have worn out: terrorists, foreign agents, self-haters, traitors etc vreme.com/vesti/vucic-...
