for once, i'm genuinely uneasy and spooked by current events at home, in #Romania:
a draft criminal complaint was circulated in Romania, which accused certain Romanian politicians, institutions and NGOs of, among other things, crimes against humanity
my NGO is among those accused
the complaint describes us all as complicit in the annulment of the Romanian presidential elections in 2024
citizens were encouraged to fill in this template and submit it to prosecutor's offices
(1/4)
a romanian newsroom traced these templates back to an association and a political party
the head of the association is an ex-commanding officer in the Romanian army. he's also the treasurer of the political party
the party was created by 3 men:
- a guy who used to coordinate the "cryptocurrencies and digital currencies" division of the national bank
- an ex-lead in the ministry of justice and the prison administration
- and an ex-army officer, specialized in "electronic warfare
(2/4)
today, "tens" of people gathered in front of the general prosecutor's office in bucharest, to submit the criminal complaints
these people were spurred to action by a political party of ex-officials, some with army ranks
these people used to serve the country and are now trying to prosecute NGOs for "being complicit in crimes against humanity"
what makes me feel uneasy is that we have seen this before. we have seen #fascist #military take-overs before
