Destroyed buses and a complete business, own and son's arrest, but also attempted suicide by burning - truck driver Milomir Jaćimović survived all this in a few days, only because he transported students to the protest and thus helped them in their rebellion.
And this is neither the first nor the hundredth time. Masses of people in state enterprises, such as EPS, the Post Office or the court, were fired because they showed up at a student protest or shared a video in support of the blockades on social networks.
Foreigners, especially those from Croatia, were expelled en masse for the same reasons and in several waves, in imitation of the exploits of Šešeljev in the 1990s.
The progressives are also forcing foreign musicians, directors, everyone who dared to speak against Aleksandar Vučić.
The diaspora has awakened.
However, in Serbia, the forgotten solidarity has taken off since the beginning of the student protests. In less than 12 hours, the diaspora collected more than 25.000 US dollars for truck transporter Milomir Jaćimović.
On the platform http://gofundme.com, money was collected under the slogan "Help a brave man from Serbia in his fight for justice".
What did the Jaćimovići survive?
Transporter Jaćimović is known to the public for driving students to protests, for which he is still suffering the consequences. Last week, he was again the target of thugs, who first punctured his bus tires and then broke his windshield on the day of the protest in Belgrade, where he was supposed to drive his fellow citizens. Also, he received numerous fines.
Jaćimović then tried to harm himself in front of the premises of SNS in Novi Sad - to set himself on fire. Soon, the intervention unit of the police arrived and responded, broke the windows of the car Jaćimović was in, and he was taken into custody.
Previously, Milomir's son was detained because he started pasting posters on the SNS premises with photos of policemen who obstructed Jaćimović in his work and stopped him on the road while he was transporting students.
Milomir, we are with you!
Students in the blockade publicly thanked and supported the arrested truck driver who transported students to protests for free for months.
"When no one wanted to drive, he said, 'Get in, kids, let's go'. When roadblocks, rain and police zones were waiting for us - Milomir was waiting for us. When his tires were slashed, when he was threatened by an anonymous voice on the other side of the wire, when his license plates were taken off and the vehicle was stopped - he didn't pull over. He didn't give up. He continued to drive," the students wrote.
They told him that he must never harm himself - "not because of them".
The students emphasized that no man who stood with the students should be left alone and that no person should pay a personal price for a struggle that is collective.
They announced the account number to which citizens can pay donations and help the trucker Jaćimović.
Who guarantees our freedom?
How did they start to close the gate of Serbia to all dissenters - the question is who will the laws of this country serve in the future, and even just as a dead letter on paper.
"Freedom of thought and expression is guaranteed, as well as the freedom to seek, receive and spread information and ideas through speech, writing, pictures or in any other way," says the Constitution of the Republic of Serbia.
And further: "Freedom of expression can be limited by law, if it is necessary to protect the rights and reputation of others, preserve the authority and impartiality of the court, and protect public health, morals of a democratic society, and national security of the Republic of Serbia."
It turns out that the government equated the country's national security with its own benefit. That's how he thinks they are public sector employee their personal employees, not public employees, so that they can hire and fire them depending on how they like their private political opinions.
As a great way to keep people under control, the government also uses fixed-term employment, although it is forbidden by law to keep people on these contracts for more than two years. Party usurped state, on the example of electricity distribution, gives an excellent example to other public companies of how to employ workers through a youth cooperative, and when the two-year term expires - just change the cooperative through which they are hired. In this way, they pay the same people again, minimally, but they blackmail them all the time with dismissal, if they do not behave in accordance with the interests of the authorities.
