Let’s start with the punchline: in Greece, if you’re a minister, you don’t fear prison. You fear losing your parking spot in Kolonaki. That’s because our Constitution — yes, the sacred text — hides a clause so absurd it would make Kafka blush and Carlin howl. It’s called Article 86, and it’s the single best insurance policy for politicians who want to lie, steal, or screw up catastrophically without consequence.

The Joke That Isn’t Funny

Article 86 basically says: only Parliament can prosecute ministers for crimes they commit while in office. Sounds democratic, right? Wrong. It’s like asking the foxes to investigate who ate the chickens. And surprise: they always vote that nobody did.

Think about the Tempe rail disaster — fifty-seven dead. Contracts signed, safety systems delayed, money evaporated. Who faced justice? No one at the top. Or the TEXAN recycling scandal — millions lost, a company under investigation, but political names safely cocooned. Or the OPEKEPE farm subsidies that never reached farmers — because Article 86 doesn’t allow prosecutors to knock on certain doors.

If you kill people with negligence, cheat the system, or siphon EU money, you and I risk prison. Ministers? They risk a bad headline.

That’s not democracy. That’s is mafia code designed to escape crimes

This wasn’t an accident. Article 86 was designed by elites for elites. It’s the ultimate firewall, a built-in feature of the Greek state: a rule that makes accountability optional. Every time the clause was challenged, parties closed ranks. Left, right, center — all complicit, because all benefit.

It turns law into theater. Trials are rare, convictions even rarer. The few who are prosecuted end up in a “Special Court,” which sounds grand until you realize it’s staffed by politicians’ peers and has the lifespan of a fruit fly.

This is how systems maintain themselves: not through secret cabals in smoke-filled rooms, but through clauses hidden in plain sight that make justice impossible.

The Cost in Blood

We talk about corruption as if it’s just money. But look at Tempe: fifty-seven families burying their children. Look at underfunded hospitals while subsidies vanish. Look at farmers crushed while middlemen pocket their aid.

This is not just theft. This is violence against citizens. When ministers are untouchable, citizens become disposable. Article 86 is not abstract; it is written in coffins and unpaid bills.

Who protects the people, when the law protects the powerful?

So here’s the scam: the Constitution protects politicians, politicians protect each other, and citizens protect… nothing. We get to vote every four years and pretend it matters, while Article 86 laughs in our faces.

George Carlin once said: “It’s a big club. And you ain’t in it.” Article 86 is Greece’s version of that club. The rest of us? We’re the punchline, paying the tab.

The European Public Prosecutor Laura Kovesi came to Athens and said it straight: Article 86 is standing in the way. She’s right. And while politicians argue whether to touch the holy Constitution, citizens keep dying, paying, and waiting.

So let’s stop pretending this is normal. Article 86 is not tradition. It’s not law. It’s a crime scene dressed up as democracy. And until it’s gone, Greece will keep burying its victims under the weight of its own impunity.


If the law itself is corrupted, dismantling it isn’t rebellion — it’s survival.

From Your Job to Your Politicians, Welcome to the Big Con

Look around. School? Scam. Work? Scam. Democracy? Don’t get me started. From birth, you’re signed into a contract you never agreed to—and the ink’s invisible.

The Scam of Education

They told you education was freedom. Translation: a lifetime subscription to debt. In the U.S., the average graduate owes forty grand for a piece of paper that certifies one skill: obedience. You don’t buy knowledge you buy permission. Knowledge is free at a library. But you won’t get hired unless you pay six figures to prove you can sit still and take it. That’s not education. That’s extortion dressed in a cap and gown.

The Scam of Work

Welcome to the office. Eight hours of pretending to work, three hours of meetings about nothing, two hours making PowerPoints nobody reads. Economist David Graeber called it: “bullshit jobs.” Jobs that exist to justify bosses who exist to justify other bosses. And your paycheck? It’s hush money. It says: “Don’t ask if any of this matters. Just cash it.”

The Scam of Consumer Life

Your phone breaks on schedule, your clothes unravel by design, your apps charge you to exist. Even rebellion is monetized punk is a T-shirt at H&M, mindfulness is a $300 retreat. You’re not a citizen. You’re a subscriber. You’re not living. You’re leasing.

The Scam of Politics

Ah, democracy. Every four years, you pick your favorite liar. Ninety-one percent of U.S. elections and everywhere else, are won by the candidate with the most money . That’s not choice it’s an auction. Every speech is a product demo, every promise is vaporware. “Hope and Change.” “Make it Great Again.” Doesn’t matter. Different logos, same scam.

The Meta-Scam: Hope

And here’s the cruelest trick: they even scam your hope. Hustle culture says grind harder. Spirituality says manifest harder. Politicians say vote harder. It’s always on you to fix what they broke. And if it doesn’t work? They’ll sell you a premium upgrade.

So yeah. Is everything a scam? Pretty much. From your first day of school to your last ballot, life is one big pyramid scheme with better branding.

The truth? You were born into a scam. The only choice you’ve ever had is whether you sell it, buy it, or burn it down. What do you think?

Millions now use AI for emotional support and companionship during difficult times. But new research reveals concerning patterns: higher AI usage correlates with increased loneliness, and the same features that make AI comforting can create dependency. Through interviews, Reddit analysis, and clinical evidence, this video examines the psychological risks of AI relationships – and why current regulations aren’t equipped to handle this new reality. If you’re using AI when you’re struggling, here’s what you need to know.

The vow that was supposed to save humanity has collapsed into a slogan. In Gaza, “Never Again” is happening again, while the world watches and whispers excuses.

The Hollow Ritual of Memory

Every January, the world lowers its head. Leaders line up at Holocaust memorials, candles flicker, violins weep. “Never Again,” they whisper, as if repeating the words will keep the past at bay. We congratulate ourselves for remembering. But remembrance without courage is theatre. And theatre does not stop the bombs falling on Gaza.

For the children buried in the rubble, the words “Never Again” ring like a cruel joke. Never Again? It is happening again—different accents, different uniforms, but the same dehumanization, the same silence, the same graves filled with children who should have lived.

The Machinery of Dehumanization

The Holocaust did not begin with gas chambers. It began with words. Rats. Vermin. Parasites. The steady erosion of dignity until killing became a bureaucratic task.

Today, Gaza is described in almost identical terms. Its people reduced to “human animals,” its children cast as shadows rather than lives. Once language strips away humanity, mass death becomes “collateral damage.” Bulldozers flatten homes as if clearing debris. Starving families are labeled “security risks.” A whole population turned into statistics, denied the simple recognition of being human.

The machinery changes its tools, but the blueprint remains the same.

The Complicity of the World

Here is the obscenity: the very nations that stand solemnly at Auschwitz every January are the ones arming the bombardment of Gaza. American presidents, European prime ministers, they mouth “Never Again” with one hand on their chest while the other hand signs arms deals.

The hypocrisy is unbearable. A leader who weeps at a Holocaust memorial in the morning will justify the bombing of schools in the afternoon. Newspapers that publish endless anniversary spreads on the Shoah relegate Gaza’s dead children to a back-page statistic.

The world, once again, is silent. Silence that is not neutral, silence that is consent. Silence that kills twice—once by omission, once by complicity.

The Weaponization of Memory

“Never Again” was meant to be humanity’s oath. But memory has been narrowed, twisted, turned into a national brand rather than a universal principle. The Holocaust’s memory, instead of serving as a warning for all peoples, is used as political currency.

This betrayal is worse than denial. To deny the Holocaust is to erase the past. To weaponize its memory is to poison the present. It means “Never Again” does not apply to everyone—only to some. It becomes conditional. Selective. Hollow.

And what is a broken oath if not another crime?

The Children as Witnesses

Walk through Auschwitz today and you will see small shoes piled behind glass. In Gaza, those shoes are still on children’s feet when the bombs tear them apart. Both sets of children cry out through time: What is the point of memory if it cannot protect us?

History’s testimony is not abstract—it is flesh, bones, laughter cut short. A six-year-old who drew butterflies in the Warsaw Ghetto. A six-year-old in Gaza who just wanted bread. Both silenced by walls, by starvation, by human cruelty justified as necessity.

They are each other’s witnesses, across time and rubble.

The Oath That Became a Lie

The world swore “Never Again” and then built museums, carved speeches, erected statues. But monuments without conscience are empty stones. Words without courage are lies.

Every child buried in Gaza makes those words hollower. Every silence from the West makes them more obscene. “Never Again” was not supposed to be a marketing slogan. It was supposed to be humanity’s line in the sand. In Gaza, that line is not only crossed—it is erased.

If “Never Again” does not mean never again for them, then it never meant anything at all.

“Never Again” was humanity’s promise. Gaza proves it was only humanity’s excuse.
