Asylum, volatile right

I shall begin with the experience of the person who arrived in Bilbao four months ago with the intention of applying for the right of asylum, at the request of that person.

Chance, or both, has wanted to get in touch and share an impossible mission: to get an appointment for asylum at the police station. This appointment must be requested via the internet on the police website. Surprised by the dates this person gave me for the appointment, I asked a acquaintance who is in an organization dedicated to asylum issues. He told me that it is, that we have to go in again and again until we get what today seems to me to be a miracle quote. He also told me that there are no concrete guidelines, that dating is not made available to people at a certain time, but that you have to go randomly and get engaged, there is no more.

"In 2020 the pandemic came and the tails disappeared, replaced by digital cracks. This slit is as perverse as the tails, but it has an advantage, it's invisible."

Then I remembered photos of the long lines of citizens being created around the Indautxu police station. Some asylum seekers also spent nights there in order to carry out various procedures. In 2020, the pandemic came and tails disappeared, replaced by digital cracks. This cleft is as perverse as the tails, but it has the advantage that it's invisible and blind eyes don't cry. Obviously, there are no photos of people, there are no complaints. The gap opened by the pandemic and appearance is not only technological, because in this case, people who have to obtain asylum by this route often come from countries that do not have our own alphabet. Let's imagine that we're going to a country where you're Arab and you have to navigate the screens in a language that's totally unknown, that's hard, right? On the first screen the province, on the second the appointment with the police, on the third the request for asylum, then the passport number, the name, the date of birth and the country.

Everything to reach the Game over screen: "Currently there are no quotes available. Soon the office will make new appointments available." And so day by day, week by week, month by month -- and it's already been four months. Unfortunately, we know that there are many bad ways of infringing rights, and this is becoming extremely insensitive to us.
If this despicable experience has its advantages is having known the Te platform a quote. It brings together over 1,200 volunteers who have already received over 5,000 appointments. They have long realized that this evil bureaucracy has to be attacked by different parties.

Asylum applications decreased by 44% in 2021 and only five out of 100 have resolved favorably. If you do not get an asylum appointment, you cannot be an asylum seeker.

They are persecuted in the forests and deported to the south of Morocco, beaten in the fences and returned unlawfully, they risk their lives in the pastries and when they arrive in Bilbao, thinking that they have the right to asylum, the digital divide and hypocrisy await them. I have learned that I am finishing the letter, if you are Ukrainian, that this is not the case: that a new window has been opened in police stations. But that's just one more face of appearance. And while on social media they are engaged in speeding up humanitarian corridors and international protection procedures for asylum seekers from Ukraine, 44 people have died in southern Morocco after a kick sank. Human rights are also coloured.

I've done a quick analysis of the technology forecasts for 2025. Like every year, when you talk about what technology is going to bring to the media in 2025, the discourse is very similar. Many of us who write about technology have the anxiety of knowing more than it's going to... [+]

Basque Country with three speeds

When we woke up, culturally and administratively, the landscape showed a three-speed disaster.

Ended with Palestine (and with the world)

The world has also done so, because it is a symbol, because in history more genocides have already been done and will be done (bad luck, hear, it has touched you to be born there), but Palestine has special characteristics:
