October 2 is International Non-Violence Day. It can't be a Nonviolence Day, if I don't know if we could do something beyond breathing. Non-violence for a single day would be a tsunami for the system. The journalist Danilo Albin recalls the celebration in the news about the war in Ukraine, when in the two countries we have faced it is hardening persecution against men who do not want to go to war. Perhaps because it has deserved to be the owner, that war has shown us a number of paradoxes.
We wanted to see war as extemporaneous, the anachronistic barbarism of Russia. But there was no problem in exalting Zelensky's virility, calling resistance dressed in military, taking weapons and defending the cities from street to street, men. He wanted to be the face of these soldiers, the heroic military of a movie. And the Ukrainian refugees took the screens, goodbye to the images. She was going to run away with the child, a man who had to remain a soldier. An “all has been useless”, when things get serious, you mother and I soldier, the ignorance of gender roles has been eliminated from the beat. They say that the National Audience does not give political asylum to deserters, these young boys are to fulfill the most murderous role of men, and that's why we should admire them, convinced that they are dying in favor of their country, because they are willing to everything. And that's nothing anachronistic.
Lately it is quite clear that the virility we believed on the path of disappearance is anti-achronistic. There and here. We have once again seen some subsistence, because war is the deep face of capitalism and also of a kind of virility. So, not wanting to take a gun there, not wanting to carry a ship with a gun here, they're two things alike, facing capitalist machinery, not being that man.
