 The justice, a servant of the monopolies has condemned Goodman

DOWN WITH THE INFAMOUS CONVICTION!
 An injury to one is an injury to all!

GENERAL STRIKE NOW!

At noon today, the conviction of Santiago Goodman -former Secretary General of ATECH- was announced with the argument of being "co-author of the fire in the Chubut Legislature" in 2019. That year in the midst of a hard fight, comrades Jorgelina and Cristina died on the way back from a provincial plenary session of delegates in Rawson, the capital of Chubut.

Due to the outrage at the death of the female comrades, the legislature building of the bosses' politicians went up in flames.  Hundreds of workers turned their hatred against the institutions of power, and now, to punish us, the Videlist-Peronist-Radical justice has decided to convict Goodman, while the defense will have 5 days to appeal and then the sentence will be defined.
Enough! BOTH JUSTICE AND MURDEROUS STATE, HANDS OFF THE FIGHTING WORKERS!

The workers of Chubut do not forget and do not forgive (Governor) Arcioni and the repressive forces that in 2017, together with Macri, gave the order to evict the picket line of young Mapuches who were confronting (the infamous land grabbing in collusion with corrupt authorities by) Benetton and the same gendarmes disappeared and later murdered Santiago Maldonado.  We do not forget that it was Arcioni who enlisted, in the midst of the enormous struggle of the workers of the entire province, his murderous police, together with Massoni, while shouting “picketer, we are going to look for you and we are going to kill you”.

They were the ones who mobilized the hireling thugs of the oil workers' union led by Ávila to the crossroads of route 3 and 26 to evict us by means of sticks and gunshots.
Arcioni, the justice and all legislators, servants of the monopolies, are guilty of hunger, misery, unemployment.
The State is a Killer!
The imperialist transnationals saw that Arcioni's head was in danger and their interests were at stake because we workers and the exploited have not left the streets in these last three years, and that in 2021 each of the buildings of political power in the capital burned down, making Arcioni and his legislators flee and hide.
That is why they seek to impose an exemplary punishment, a true lesson to the workers in struggle.

Enough is already Enough!
 Against the brutal sentence, against repression, hunger and misery, let us vote in all schools, together with the FYRSA (fish and seafood canning company) filleters in struggle and all the workers of the province...
 GENERAL STRIKE IN CHUBUT!
 FOR A TEACHER STRIKE ACROSS THE WHOLE COUNTRY!
