L’être humain, faucon ou colombe ? Généalogie de la violence
De la guerre en Ukraine à celle entre le Hamas et Israël, la spirale de la violence semble s’accélérer. Cet embrasement fait écho à des controverses récentes autour du lien entre la violence et l’espèce humaine qui, de l’éthologie à l’archéologie et à l’anthropologie, mettent aux prises deux conceptions opposées de notre humanité.

The Authoritarian Playbook for 2025
How an authoritarian president will dismantle our democracy and what we can do to protect it
Protect Democracy previously issued The Authoritarian Playbook, which provided a framework for understanding how modern strongmen around the world have consolidated power and subverted modern democracies. This report builds on that earlier one and places Trump’s promises, powers, and plans in that context.

Des animaux sont découpés vivants : agissez vite
Cruauté sans nom à l’abattoir de Craon
#conneriehumaine #violence #animaux
L214 révèle aujourd’hui une nouvelle enquête sur les conditions de #mise-à-mort à l’ #abattoir municipal de Craon (Mayenne) d’animaux issus d’ #élevages conventionnels, #biologiques ou sous #appellation #AOC.
La majorité des animaux restent #conscients ou reprennent conscience après l’ #étourdissement : à la sortie du box d’immobilisation ou au poste de #saignée, des #veaux, des #vaches, des# bœufs relèvent la tête et se débattent avant et après l’ #égorgement.
Des #vaches commencent à être découpées alors qu’elles sont encore #vivantes : elles #réagissent aux coups de couteau et à la pince #guillotine lorsque l’on découpe leurs pattes, leurs cornes ou leur tête.
Les images montrent des scènes dignes d’un film d’horreur. Chaque jour, des animaux subissent ces monstruosités. Demandez la fermeture immédiate de cet abattoir.
J’EXIGE LA FERMETURE DE CET ABATTOIR
L’horreur n’a pas de limites, l’indifférence des vétos non plus
De nombreux facteurs mènent à cette situation effroyable :
le box d'immobilisation inadapté aux animaux,
les étourdissements ratés,
les délais trop longs entre l’étourdissement et l’égorgement,
la découpe trop rapide après la saignée,
l’absence d’évaluation de l’état d’inconscience des animaux,
le non-recours aux étourdissements d’urgence.
Pourtant, aucune modification des modes opératoires n’est apportée ni par la direction de l’abattoir ni par les services vétérinaires, présents sur place. À quoi servent-ils s’ils ne réagissent pas face à des situations aussi catastrophiques ?
Ces infractions se répètent continuellement, et engendrent des souffrances terribles pour les animaux. Aidez-nous à y mettre fin en signant notre pétition destinée à la préfète de la Mayenne et au ministre de l’Agriculture.
Je signe la pétition
L214 porte plainte pour cruauté
Face à cette situation effrayante, nous portons #plainte contre l’abattoir auprès de la procureure du tribunal judiciaire de Laval pour actes de #cruauté, #sévices graves et mauvais traitements. Nous avons remis à la justice plus de 4 heures d’images de preuves des infractions.
Nous portons également plainte pour les #infractions commises par l’employeur envers ses salariés, qui courent des risques majeurs de sécurité au moment de l’étourdissement des veaux, de l’accrochage des bovins, et de la saignée des animaux.
Au-delà de la fermeture administrative immédiate de l'abattoir, nécessaire et urgente, l’ #omerta dans les abattoirs doit cesser : nous demandons aussi la mise en place d’un droit de visite inopiné des parlementaires dans les abattoirs. Et vous ?
J'agis
Merci d’agir pour les animaux,
L’équipe de L214
P.-S. La situation est particulièrement effroyable à Craon. Mais la mise à mort des animaux dans les abattoirs est toujours violente. Pour éviter ces souffrances, le mieux est de laisser les animaux hors de nos assiettes. Plein de conseils et de recettes sur Vegan-pratique.fr.

Opinion: The fear of physical harm that keeps even #Trump’s #supporters in line
Opinion by Frida Ghitis
..."We may finally have the answer to why the #GOP has bent to Trump’s wishes so willingly and why people of principle simply refuse to call out Trump’s lies about the 2020 election or any of his countless outrages: The party’s leaders are afraid. And not just for their political careers. They are afraid for their and their families’ personal safety. The possibility of #violence threatens to tear apart a country whose people, surprisingly, agree about much more than we think.

Opinion: Why Trump’s immunity claim fell flat in court
“Americans are not as ideologically polarized as they believed themselves to be,” says Rachel Kleinfeld of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, “but emotions (my italics) are being polarized for political purposes.” Emotions are the stock-in-trade of demagogues, and Trump is a master at manipulating them, including with calls for violence.
Who can forget his exhortation to supporters during a 2016 campaign rally, to “knock the crap” out of protesters. “Just knock the hell – I promise you, I will pay for legal fees,” he said to cheers.
An expert on political violence, Kleinfeld said that “violence and threats against elected leaders are suppressing the emergence of a pro-democracy faction of the GOP.”
If more Republicans were willing to speak out against Trump, to forcefully acknowledge that he lost the 2020 election, that his phony claims that legal cases against him are politically motivated are lies, then more Republican voters might be persuaded. But few are willing to do so, so Trump’s false, self-serving version of reality has taken hold with an astonishingly large segment of the country, dominating the Republican Party.
Beyond Washington, death threats, swatting assaults and the prospect of violence are silencing moderate, reality-based Republicans across the country, persuading local officials to keep quiet or step out of politics altogether in the face of death threats and harassment."...
#UNICEF: #Children in the #Gaza Strip face a deadly triple threat to their lives, as cases of diseases rise, nutrition plummets and the escalation in hostilities approaches its fourteenth week.
The world cannot stand by and watch. The violence and the suffering of children must stop.
Thousands of children have already died from the #violence, while living conditions for children continue to rapidly deteriorate, with increasing cases of diarrhea and rising food poverty among children, raising the risk of mounting child deaths.
“Children in Gaza are caught in a nightmare that worsens with every passing day,” said Catherine Russell, UNICEF’s Executive Director. “Children and families in the Gaza Strip continue to be killed and injured in the fighting, and their lives are increasingly at risk from preventable diseases and lack of food and water. All children and civilians must be protected from violence and have access to basic services and supplies.”
Cases of diarrhea in children under five years of age rose from 48,000 to 71,000 in just one week starting 17 December, equivalent to 3,200 new cases of diarrhea per day. The significant increase in cases in such a short timeframe is a strong indication that child health in the Gaza Strip is fast deteriorating. Before the escalation in hostilities, an average of 2,000 cases of diarrhea in children under five were recorded per month. This recent climb represents a staggering increase of about 2000 per cent.

Silvester in Berlin: New Year Begins with Racist State Violence
We are told that Berlin's New Year Celebrations were peaceful. But 390 arrests and police checkpoints are examples of racist state violence
Order Reigns in Berlin! As the sun came up on January 1, every bourgeois newspaper published some variation of this headline. Politicians declared victory against violent hordes of Ausländer*innen – the fire department said that it had been a »normal New Year's«.
A normal New Year’s is not peaceful, though. At 7am, the Unfallkrankenhaus, an emergency hospital in Marzahn, reported that they had treated 27 people with serious injuries. Fingers had been severed, eyes destroyed, and entire hands ripped off.
This is the eternal strangeness of Silvester, German New Year's Eve. 364 days a year, the state regulates our lives down to the smallest detail. On December 31, it lets us compensate for this paternalism by handing out kilotons of explosives.
In Texas, where I come from, you can walk into a store and buy an AR-15 with no questions asked. But the authorities won't let you buy explosives, much less set them off in residential areas – that's too dangerous!
One year ago, all of Germany was discussing the Silvester riots in Berlin's migrant neighborhoods, particularly in Neukölln. There had supposedly been a »new dimension of violence«. Over the following week, however, the statistics had to be revised downwards. Now, Berlin police chief Barbara Slowik admitts that there had not been more attacks against police in 2022 than in the years before the pandemic: »There had been similar numbers of attacks in the past.«
But the right-wing discourse about »people refusing to integrate« took on a life of its own, propelling the nonchalant demagogue Kai Wegner into Berlin's Red City Hall. This manufactured racist moral panic had served its purpose, and continues to reverberate. This year, Berlin's police reported on fireworks-related crimes in Neukölln – and 7 of the 9 incidents they listed were in totally different neighborhoods.
The irony is that immigrants who set off fireworks are integrating perfectly into Germany's bizarrely destructive Leitkultur.
Last year, three apartments in Lichtenberg were completely burned out after fireworks landed on a balcony. You probably didn't hear about that, though, because it didn't fit into the racist narrative. That fire was just wholesome German fun – whereas people from Neukölln shooting Böller is dangerous mob violence.
When politicians condemn Gewalt, violence, they are only referring to very specific forms of violence. A headline might say that there was »less violence« but »more arrests« this year. 390 arrests means that 390 people were assaulted, with many thrown to the ground and injured by heavily armed, black-clad officers, many of whom hold barely concealed right-wing views.
There were 4.500 police on Berlin's streets on New Year’s. Parts of Sonnenallee were blocked off with checkpoints, and residents were stopped and frisked before they could reach their homes. By some alchemy of bourgeois ideology, this orgy of violence somehow doesn't count.
In 2023, Neukölln passed drastic budget cuts in schools and youth centers. Money is never lacking for police who terrorize non-German populations. The people of Neukölln are subject to all kinds of systematic violence – like when a poor family is forced out of their home with the help of the police because they can no longer afford the rent.
For bourgeois politicians, »order« is when their violence against poor people goes unchallenged – and »violence« is when poor people no longer tolerate their oppression in an orderly way.
Silvester in Berlin saw a ton of violence – but it was mostly violence by the cops. In this sense, yes, order did prevail in Berlin on New Year's. But as Rosa Luxemburg liked to remind the ruling class, »your ›order‹ is built on sand!«

#États-Unis, la #guerre intérieure

Après le coup de force des partisans de Donald #Trump au #Capitole en 2021, retour sur la #radicalisation des #vétérans de l’ #armée et leur implication dans les milices d’ #extrêmedroite. Une plongée glaçante dans la #violence latente de la démocratie américaine.
Le 6 janvier 2021, des partisans de Donald Trump prennent d'assaut le Capitole, à Washington, afin d'empêcher le Sénat et la Chambre des représentants de confirmer formellement la victoire de Joe #Biden à l’élection présidentielle. Le bilan est lourd : 5 morts et une centaine de blessés. Environ 15 % des assaillants s’avèrent être d'anciens membres de l'armée ou de la #police américaines, souvent organisés en #milices d'extrême droite hostiles à l'État. Cette statistique étonnante soulève une question importante : pourquoi est-ce précisément ceux qui ont fait le serment de protéger la démocratie qui l'attaquent ? En marche pour la violence Si la fumée au-dessus du Capitole s'est dissipée, le problème demeure : la #société américaine apparaît profondément divisée et les risques d’affrontements sanglants restent élevés. Tous deux anciens #militaires, le réalisateur américain Charlie Sadoff et son coauteur et producteur Kenneth Harbaugh ont pu aisément s'immerger dans le monde des vétérans de l’armée américaine. Ils ont eu accès à l’univers violent de l'extrême #droite et de ses milices antiétatiques, comme les Proud Boys, les Three Percenters et les Oath Keepers, organisés et dirigés par des ex-militaires bien formés et motivés. Avec l'aide de témoins exclusifs – un ancien agent du #FBI, un vétéran, un membre des Proud Boys, un chasseur de #nazis ainsi que des experts de l’extrémisme de droite –, le film remonte jusqu'à l’origine de ces groupes et analyse leur radicalisation croissante, alors que Donald Trump a repris sa marche pour un second mandat à la #Maison-Blanche.
