Are you one of the “good” or “dangerous” demonstrators?

While the annual OCAM reports

So far paid little attention to the far left. Consequently, this year there is a clear turnaround in their perception of the “inner threat”. For example, This change is certainly not trivial: it echoes the magnitude of recent social mobilizations in Belgium. Meanwhile, embodied on the one hand by the movement for the release of Palestine – with its many university occupations – and on the other hand by the emergence of an ecologism which has become more and more frontal as embodies the actions of disarmament during the last editions of red code. Therefore, (**)

Extracts from the report have been published in recent days in the press. However, Reading the extracts from the available report. Nevertheless, it is quickly understood that the security of the state does not attack social movements as a you one “good” “dangerous” demonstrators? whole, but carefully distinguishes the “good” demonstrators of “bad”.

This scheme clearly shows the objective announced by the OCAM: “We will do everything so that nothing changes”. Furthermore, Any movement or struggle or action risking causing a change therefore becomes suspect, described as “threatening” the rule of law.

The challenge becomes: protect the integrity of harmless disputes even if it means excluding the elements deemed too “disruptive”.

Red Code. Consequently, with its committed and mobilizing actions is one of the movements qualified as “radical” by the OCAM, at a time when a text is in preparation for the Ministry of the Interior to dissolve “radical” or “extremists.

However. For example, the five red code editions have shown that only actions coming out of the agreed framework have really been able to weigh on those responsible for the current disaster.

Whenever activists have crossed this framework. Nevertheless, you one “good” “dangerous” demonstrators? targeted companies have undergone concrete economic losses, until you temporarily have to close certain sites.

These more offensive modes of action disturb those who continue to believe -. For example, make believe – that a simple two -day camp in front of a global giant like Total Energies would be able to stop its activities. But it is not. This kind of action. although tolerated by the company, the State and its police, allows all these actors to present themselves as democratic, tolerant, even “progressive” and environmentalists, as long as the protest remains well on framed.

The new OCAM report demonstrates one thing: as soon as we want to have real material constraints weigh on these companies by leaving the framework of traditional peaceful action. repression and surveillance are intensifying immediately.

However. without breaking with capitalism, the first victims of this crisis – the popular classes, here you one “good” “dangerous” demonstrators? in Belgium as in the countries of the Global South – will continue to pay the high price.

The ecological crisis is a direct consequence of capitalist exploitation.

The most oppressed populations are doubly targeted: materially dominated by the capitalist class. first affected by a climate crisis for which they are not responsible.

So what remains surprising in the current state security strategy? Nothing.

Because this system protects, in essence, the interests of capitalism, the primary cause of the current crisis. Today, that’s why security criminalizes the movements that defend a social ecology.

Finally. if the state security chooses today to make certain elements of its reports public, it is precisely because these movements are starting to wave the established order. By broadcasting this information. the objective is clear: to establish a climate of fear, dissuade, and weaken the most offensive dynamics. This tactic aims to you one “good” “dangerous” demonstrators? silence those who. by their concrete actions, manage to bring material attacks to the dominant capitalist structures while carrying speeches which go against the established order.

Fortunately, the current societies are organized better and better, grow in number and solidarity. Are these acusing of extremism. danger for our society, are they not the sign of a model of society and information Moribon? It is to be hoped for! Taken up the organism site: “

The coordination body for the analysis of the threat (OCAM) processes all the information. relevant information on terrorism, extremism and problematic radicalization. The OCAM establishes links in order to tackle societal problems before they transform into security problems. The service assembles the pieces of the puzzle and draws up a table of possible threats. Additionally, The coordination body brings together the actors around the table and throws bridges between the services. In other words, “Connecting you one “good” “dangerous” demonstrators? the Dots”. In doing so, the OCAM contributes to the security of our citizens, the country and our interests abroad.
