Girdles With Suspenders

NO VAT 2010 - MEET IN ROME, Saturday, February 13

.
La Piattaforma del No Vat 2010

Il 13 Febbraio 2010 per il quinto anno scendiamo ancora in piazza contro il Vaticano per denunciarne l’invadenza in Italian politics: it is one of the actors who act in the complex power dynamics underlying an authoritarian and repressive.

February 11, 1929 Lateran Treaty between the Vatican sanctioned the welding and the fascist regime, now waving the crucifix the right to legitimate a moral order in line with the fundamentalism of the Vatican hierarchy, are exploiting it to build a national identity and racist heterosexist a declination of citizenship and family life.

On the one hand the right criminalize immigrants and immigrants, to instigate a real "man hunt" them / their representative as the competition in access to public resources and none addresses the problem of a dismantled welfare and not drawn on a social model that no longer exists. On the other hand the Catholic church only legitimate model of society based on traditional heterosexual family, the division of sex roles, where one is subordinate to the other gender and lesbian, gay and trans have no right to citizenship.

On another front, moderate right and left reformist implementing the attempt to carry out selective assimilation of minority individuals on the basis of the expressed willingness to offer themselves meekly to legitimize racist speeches, law enforcement and heterosexist. And 'The inclusion of only those who do not question the subjectivity power: there is little room for gay, lesbian and trans and other figures of diversity, if it confirms the order racist, sexist and repressive.

In this context, the LGBTQ movement, we have witnessed the emergence of "new" subjects who use words in order to produce a reversal of reality: to protect the supposed subjectivity weak put their executioners. Who legitimizes these "new" subject, helps to produce a further shift to the right, to normalize the presence of the radical right in public debate.

Out of these struggles to power, we note the widespread and oppressive presence of an ethics Catholic, a policy model that proposes as the only alternative to "renew" the moralism and justicialism. We know today that if the Vatican seems to be less interventionist is only because he does not need: already in our country has a monopoly of the 'ethics' that embraces equally the government and parliamentary opposition to compete - as always - to kneel at the altar of justicialism doing good and hypocritical.

reject the attempt to expropriate the movements of lesbian, gay, trans and feminist, of basic categories such as anti-fascism, or the political ambiguity would end up making our subjective moral accomplices of this order and granting political legitimacy and victimizing minority in exchange for the suppression of addiction.

Contrast this power, where not tame, and represses, through the Vatican's moral order, takes discipline and social control devices that deny any kind of self-determination: self-determination and social and economic integration of migrants, self-determination bodies and lifestyles of women, gays, lesbians and transsexuals, each path of self-organization, dissent and conflict.

denounce that when the process of domestication does not use the prison, the CIE (centers for identification and expulsion), repression, fear, boredom, loneliness, intimidation and the criminalization of dissent to neutralize the items not covered and unmanageable: migrant movements, students, male and female workers, the unemployed / e.

reaffirm that anti-racism, anti-fascism, anti-sexism are fights, necessary to each other, to be carried out even against the instrumental use of the freedoms of women and LGBT model to strengthen and legitimize a racist.

to Piazza nell'acutizzarsi our paths of self-determination of the economic crisis and the dismantling of the welfare state - in particular schools and universities - which leaves plenty of space to private and sectarian.

reaffirm the diversity and with social, sexual, cultural and national identity against the racist and heterosexist we want to impose moral order and against the Vatican.

We bring to the streets of liberation for our paths to reiterate our willingness to act in the public space to produce social and cultural transformation.
