If you believe the #coronacrisis is just a crisis because of #Covoid19, no sorry, that's not correct.
It is also a crisis because of capitalism, xenophobia, classism, nationalism....

This is a video published by the #police of #vienna, presenting their power.
In the backround there's the song "I am from autria" running.

They said: every day at 18:00, the song "I am from Austria", will be played from every police car patrol.

Sharping national identity.
Uniting people through a shared threat.

The song is about, autria having lost it's power, that they knew the people and the rats (a term facists have been using, not shure how it relates to that), something about the nature of autria and how much they are bound to it, something about blood proud...

The german police is publicly applauding them.

Proposal:

shutting down car traffic within cities as much as possible.

reasons:
- mitigating the risk of pneumonia that #Covoid19 is (also) causing, through reducing toxication of our air
- climate justice
- to many cars kill to many people

#coronacrisis as an oportunity

#Covoid19 is causing pneumonia.
Fine dust from exhausts is making us more vulnurable for pneumonia and alike.

Effectivly limiting cars from toxicating our air in cities will safe many lifes.

In times of #climatecrisis and a #healthcarecrisis, I'd like to encourage us asking the question:

How to combine both struggles?

Shutting down traffic with many small afinity groups, demanding free health care, free public transport and a citiy design centerd around humans, not cars.

We'd rather start such conversations soon, since a time post-covoid19 might be long in future. ...or at least it's currently just unpredictable what is going to happen.

Push the state when it's strong.
Push harder when it's weak.

Die Menschheit steuert auf den Kollaps zu und begegnet dem mit #Toilettenpapier und #Desinfektionsmitteln ? Lächerlich armselig. Nein, #Covoid19 ist nicht das Problem. Was es bräuchte kostet nicht mal Geld: #Menschlichkeit

Aber ich versteh schon, ist nicht lukrativ.
