Related question: does this mean that Greece is a good place to live for anarchists, or exactly the opposite? (Genuine question)
In one hand anarchists there provide public services which is good, on the other hand the violent police force often beat up suspected anarchists unprovoked.
I like that we have lots of squats and anarchist places with events to attend to, lots of protests with anarchist blocks to participate and of course many anarchists to spend my time with:)
Currently this period is a pre-election period though (we'll have elections in ~half a year max) and the current right wing gov is campaigning by dealing with "terrorists" by arresting various anarchists (and not only anarchist I guess) and blaming the left for polarization and hate-speech. So we have increased police violence these days (and this gov in general has been increasing the police power in its 2 4-year term). It's tough and we'll have to somehow make it through.
Eitherway, I think I'd find it hard to live anywhere else, mayyybe in spain/france/italy, wherever there are strong anarchist communities and the climate is mediterranean:)
