School exclusions and vaccinations: a pseudopaper

In collaboration with the friends of the "Freedom of Choice" Committee, I have tried to quantify in the attached pseudopaper the effects of the Lorenzin decree on the right to pre-primary education of children from zero to five years of age (age at the beginning of the school year). The estimate produced a result of almost 130,000 children now de jure excluded from the opportunity to attend the nurseries and kindergartens. A hundred and thirty. As I write in the conclusions, this is a phenomenon that "has no precedent, not even distant, in the entire republican and national history" .

There are many, many reasons why this number should be astonishing, the first of which is that … it does not astound anyone. Already the fact of having had to guess it from a few reticent newspaper articles, and not from official statistics, betrays the authorities' attempt to hide the enormity of what is happening, an unmotivated or at least gravely controversial attack on the rights of a hundreds of thousands of citizens, above all the most fragile. An evidently successful attempt, if these masses of sub-citizens do not land on the front pages or in the institutional debate except in diminutive, paternalistic and disparaging terms of small fringes of uninformed to be re-educated to "reasonableness" and "science" for some , of noisy fanatics obsessed with a "false problem" for others.

I will not repeat here what I have already written in a book and in numerous articles, of how the vaccination obligation and the associated conditionality of social rights represents the most advanced test of a combined attack on democracy today (explicitly boasting of the his being "undemocratic"), to citizens (no longer bothering their ideas or assets, but directly the physical substance in which they exist) and science, with the intimidation of dissonant voices and the forcing of a false consensus. An attack that, it is good to remember, is only at the beginning and whose device promises to extend far beyond the bites against the pustules.

Two years after the launch of the Lorenzin decree and in the aftermath of its entry into full swing, the attitude of a political class all – all – intent on quelling and truncating, truncating and dying , to make it normal idea that suddenly millions of people should be medicalized, discriminated against and persecuted because the White House decided , without asking any more.

But you won't get away with it, we won't get away with it. History shows that when there are no good arguments – as is the case – so many resistance movements can be defeated only with repression and purges. Just to avoid such drastic results and already invoked by too many people, I offer our analysis to the reflection of everyone, readers and decision-makers.
