Oποιος νομίζει ότι η συμφωνία είναι πραξικόπημα, είναι ηλίθιος

No, the Greek agreement is not a coup and if you think it is, you're an idiot

Likening today's German government to the Nazi regime is offensively stupid

Arguing with Twitter hashtags is like urinating into a hurricane, and a particularly stupid and self-righteous hurricane at that. But sometimes, you just have to do these things anway, and dry yourself off afterwards. So here goes: no, this is not a coup.
#thisisacoup has been trending in various parts of the world for several hours over the latest Greek talks. Let’s skim over the awkward fact that Twitter and public opinion are not the same thing and deal with the argument – such as it is – that lies beneath the hysteria and hyperbole. A coup is what happens when a group of people, foreign or domestic, seize power in a country by force or coercion. I’ll allow a bit of poetic licence in political conversation about Greece, so I won’t bother with the literalist argument that it’s not a coup because there are no tanks or guns or men in uniforms involved.

  2. No, the Greek agreement is a coup and if you think it is not, YOU're an idiot.

    Once a country gives up monetary system, privatizing water supply and electrical grid(as proposed) can't have a democracy. Period.

    During the past weeks we witnessed how the lack of Greek national monetary system worked for them. Capital controls while referendum and negotiations are taking place.

    Next time there is a similar attempt for a democratic resolution,electrical black outs, and dry water taps will be part of the coup.

    Go have democracy on your own if you think that's feasible and spare us your opinion.
