Noone will be forgotten!
May 2010 – remembrance actions on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of
Dieter Eichs death in Berlin.
Faces and names instead of blind spots.
Since the German reunification in Berling twelve people died by Neonazis –
at least official statistics say that. The remembrance of those people who
were murdered by Neonazis fades away by and by and along with it also the
deed itself seems to fade. Therefore it is our job to give those people
names and faces for that they, their murders but also the scale of
national socialist ideology do not sink into oblivion. Demonstrations held
in memory of them since the beginning of the nineties for Silvio Meier or
since 2005 for Thomas Schulz in Dortmund do stand for this concern. For us
it does not matter how remembrance is held. The only important thing is
that it takes place.
For three years now actions in remembrance of Dieter Eich also take place
in Berlin. The 25th of May 2010 marks the 10th anniversary of his death.
For us this is the reason to show the circumstances and the social setting
of the deed.
Dieter Eich at that time was on welfare and lived in a prefabricated house
in the outskirts in the northeast of Berlin in a district called Buch.
During the night of 24/25 May 2000 a group of drunken Neonazis living in
the same house as Dieter Eich poisoned their minds against each other and
took the decision to bash up a “dosser”. They entered the flat of Dieter
Eich and brutally smashed him. Afterwards they escaped. Shortly after they
returned again to his flat, repeatedly stabbed him with a knife and killed
him so that he could not make a statement at the police. He bleeded to
death in his flat.
Ideological background
Dieter Eich died because for the Nazis he was a social welfare freeloader.
For this reason the murderers of Dieter Eich act according to the
tradition of the massmuderers of beggars, unemployed persons and hoboes
during National Socialism. During April and June 1938 more than 10,000
people were deported to concentration camps as drop-outs within a campaign
called „Arbeitsscheu Reich“ meaning they were unwilling to work. A
consistency reaching from National Socialism until today cannot be denied.
The set phrase „If you do not work you are of no value“ is shared by
almost all powers of todays society. So the murderers of Dieter Eich were
close to political mainstream. The subtle distinction between a good
citizen, the state, the economy and the media on the one hand and a
Neonazi on the other is, that in one of the first mentioned circles it
does not benefit to stab freeloaders. Fewest people are contended with
their working conditions. Even if they prefer to go on vacation instead of
working overtime they condemn people who cannot or who are not willing to
work. Could this be understood other than an acknowledgement to work until
you drop, dripping of submissiveness? Or a thank-you to the miserable
circumstances in which we live! The discrimination of non-working people
is not only fuelled by the social envy of the citizens among each other
but it is wanted and legitimated by the highest authorities and
institutions. A lot of people do think negative about unemployed persons.
The state shapes this into laws with the aim to squeeze even more
productivity out of it’s citizens by force but also to fuel the conflict
between the wage-related and the unemployed. It is important for the state
to keep this conflict alive because otherwise the working and nonworking
“lazy” crowd could turn it’s anger on the state itself.
Regarding the question of work, society as well as the state wrap
themselves in a double moral standard that dares to pick on non-working
people and at the same time still leaves a backdoor open to to put on a
pitiful face when another down-and-out has been beaten into the gutter.
They shall choke on every syllable of their dishonest statements!
The one who allows the basis of a social climate in which the value of a
person is only measured by his manpower must not be surprised if
right-winged bruisers feel confirmed in the „rightness“ of their action.
May 2010 – Don’t look away! Take action!
Ten years after the murderer of Dieter Eich we want to keep up the
remembrance with events and actions and by naming the social backgrounds.
Also we are interested to focus on the Berlin quarter Buch and the
surroundings, at least punctually. The continuing presence of a
right-winged body of thought in this area emphasizes the need to combine
the remembrance of the victims of right-winged violence with the daily
fight against Neonazis.
