Where I live in Brussels, anarchy is already here. Listen to this utter madness: there's an open air drug market in front of my kids' school. All-day open drug dealing, occasional raids, shootings, bullets through the school windows, bombs through letterboxes of the drug families on the adjacent streets, bundles of cash and bags of drugs hidden under cars, was of cash sometimes blowing in the wind, stuck in climbing plants.. there's a drive-through service, a lookout system with code words shouted all over the square when the cops are coming, intimidation, drugs hidden in kids slide, young boys on scooters whizzing around dropping off new supplies and taking away big bags of cash... you're not able to even use your phone when you walk past or you risk having it yanked out of your hand (there are boys watching for filmers)... almost all of the most risky jobs are done by asylum seekers with no papers picked up from the local train station, they're let go straight away after being arrested etc. This has been going on for years and it's getting worse but nobody can sell their houses and escape. Any effort to do something about it is thwarted by leftie saviours who want to hug-the-violence-out (many of whom don't even live here). If you attribute agency to any of the people involved, you're a fascist. If you voice any support for the authorities efforts to fix the problem, you're a fascist. So we all just have to put up with it and hope none of us gets killed.
Anyway, in the neighbourhood chat group recently there's a message about a nice little activity that will help -- temporarily -- "occupy" the square (it's all we can do). The idea is that next week, on a certain day, from 7pm-10pm we'll all pull a chair and/or table outside and have a drink or dinner in front of the houses on the square, so that the flow of drug traffic will be disrupted a bit (customers don't like being watched when they buy drugs in front of a primary school, it makes them feel bad). A little spot of very civil and convivial disobedience.
The first response to the message was "I don't like this surveillance of people", it's a type of "social control", and it's "accusatory".
Nobody responds. Next message is someone from the municpality "eeeeh guys if you're going to put chairs out on the sidewalk you need to inform the authorities and the emergency services, they need to know"
It's a literal open-air drug market. The drug dealers have their own chairs from which they sell drugs (it's very tiring). I'm pretty sure they don't have permission from the authorities for either of those activities.
Most importantly, though, the message is clear: if you participate in this "accusatory surveillance-based social control", you're a fascist. So it's unlikely anyone will do it.
