Some clarifications on the new opening of the Judimensiondi game room

  • On October 15, 2019 we learned that the local Premium Games Salon in Judimendi has reopened its doors. Three weeks ago the Judimensiondi platform not to the Gambling Room reported that the game room had been closed for two and a half months at the door of this venue.

The owner of the business did not find anyone willing to run the premises, as indicated in the press conference. A tabernacle of the neighborhood was offered the management of it, which was rejected after the press conference.

It's been a long time since the neighbors of the Judimensiondi took the mask off this playroom dressed as a bar. We know that play is only one more tool of the heteropatriarchal capitalist system that oppresses us today, that they use to enrich the pockets of the elites, while emptying those of the citizens. Through play, they want to sell us a non-existent future that improves our economic conditions. But the neighbors and neighbors of Judimendi, aware of this, activate a dynamic against the games room, through which we add to the table the problems that the games room poses for the neighborhood and activate a response from the neighborhood.

Most of the neighborhood has made this clear, we don't want a business of this kind. We have demonstrated this by attending the concentrations convened on the last Thursday of each month, ceasing to consume in them, dismissing our demand in homes, streets and shops through chapas and banderoles, giving lectures in the neighborhood and in educational centers.

Most of the neighborhood has made this clear, we don't want a business of this kind. And we have demonstrated this by attending the concentrations convened on the last Thursday of each month, stopping consuming in them, uncovering our claim in homes, on the street and in shops through chapas and banderoles, giving lectures in the neighborhood and in educational centers, making in June the first demonstration against the gambling halls of Euskal Herria or in September, not to the games room of Judimendi! Press conference held by platform members. After all, a whole neighborhood has slipped into the playroom, both young and old.

Unfortunately, it seems that there is always someone who is willing to get rich at the expense of others, even if to do so he has to pass over the word of the neighborhood. But the neighbors and neighbors are clear that, in the current system, we will continue to deny that factory that turns the games into playrooms and into puppets of the system. While the dynamics of the neighborhood have been underway, despite the changes in the management of the site, we have never given up in our struggle, and today will not be the day for it. Changing the image of the game room is not going to silence us.

But responsibility is not exclusive to the new owner. The final words of this reading we want to use to challenge the institutions and social partners. We are once again unanimously saying that it is time for these bodies to take the necessary responsibilities and measures in the face of the problems of gambling halls and gambling in general. The members of the popular movement have been doing the work of our house for some time. So let's start building the way to give a collective response to this problem.

We knew that the situation we were in could happen later. But although it has been for a short time, we mean that it has been a small victory over the power of the neighborhood and the organization of the neighborhoods. So let us continue to build alliances and networks so that these small victories are big! The struggle is worthwhile and we reaffirm ourselves in it.

In Judimendi we are clear: No to the Court of Justice!
