Alienation
I've had the opportunity to have an interesting talk with young people around the local Socialist Youth Coordinator, and the terminology they managed has reminded me of concepts like the organization of the proletarians, capitalist violence, the workforce, surplus value, and alienation that I've always loved especially.
The worker, thanks to capitalist logic and turned into a commodity dependent on mechanical nature, does not have to think, and thus, without decision-making power, ceases to be the owner of the one who created it.
Without giving my hand to remove the chopsticks from my eyes, the editor has put a job for today’s informative: The non-governmental organisation Walking Borders has published a report on migration in the State and I have to make a video for noon with the data that appear in it.
When I read the data, I have ordered that if I have to sleep, I will fall asleep because it requires that the issues appear raw: In the Mediterranean Sea, in 2021, 4,404 migrants from 21 countries have died or disappeared. Over two hundred of them, children. And they are “official” data, which in most cases conceal the crudity of reality.
"The time has come to watch the informative of noon and I have stood in front of the television. Believe me, I haven't met my video."
The editor has “proposed” me to take a camera and ask the street people their opinion. For my gulf, I thought maybe it would be better to ask an expert to help me interpret that data. But good! If you want, like that.
I've asked questions, I've found some images in the file and I've made the text. Incomplete video.
The editor has called me back before issuing. It looks like the images are too hard. You know, the bloated bodies of drowned children, the coffins on the list, etc.
In addition, it has been a bit long and I would be grateful if I could summarize it. “Sure! “If not, the mandatory information will not be included.” You know…
It is no small thing, and he says that the questions in the text are not appropriate. Asking who has political responsibility, or asking about the responsibility of international institutions not only to take off the big words, but also on the topic of migration, is not “communicative” in “our” informative.
And the time has come to watch the informative of the afternoon and I have stood before the television. Believe me, I haven't met my video. By polishing the data, without the time it takes, without the experts’ light and without uncomfortable questions… I’ve felt like a worker turned into a commodity.
Today also without sweeping home.

There are many ways to gain power; not all are beautiful. There are those who want to divide the power and the responsibility that it entails with it, who seek authority. Others have a lot of respect for him and the fact that each step is so measured makes them unable to make a... [+]

Bai, bai, holaxe. Ez naiz harago joatera menturatzen. Pleonasmo bat dela? Tautologia bat agian? Baliteke, baina egia-oste deitzen dioten garai honetan, oinarri-oinarrizko egitateak beharrezkoak dira. Begira, bestela, “Ez da ez!” lelo indartsuari. Bagenekien hori... [+]
I had a friend who worked at Porcelana Irabia until they closed, and every time we went to a restaurant or a bar he looked at the mug and the ass of the dish to find out where the piece was made. I do the same thing when I go to the fairs of old things: I look where it is made,... [+]

There are concepts that appear everywhere during certain periods, which also become mantras. They appear to us in a positive and necessary way, without too much debate and without thinking about them. It seems to me that one of these mantras is internationalization, which has... [+]
In 2021 we began to hear the first echoes of the Guggenheim Urdaibai project. The then General Manager Unai Rementeria told us that it would be done yes or yes. To reinforce his claims, he left 40 million euros “shielded” by the time the museums were built. There it is!... [+]
