Meet The Woman Who Attacked Mario Draghi: In Her Own Words

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The biggest star of today's ECB's press conference was not Mario Draghi but 21-year-old German feminist, Josephine Witt, an ex-Femen activist who jumped on Draghi's desk wearing an "ECB Dick-tatorship", a slogan she repeatedly screamed as she was led away by security guards. She threw paper copies of her demands at Mr Draghi, while showering him with confetti that were created from her finely chopped up manifesto.

 

As Nordea analyst Heidi Schauman wryly observed after the conference: "All those expecting an uneventful ECB press conference were so wrong."

Who is Josephine Witt and what is her message?

According to the Telegraph, "to gain access to the press conference, the ECB said Ms Witt "registered as a journalist for a news organisation she does not represent”. Ms Witt told The Telegraph that she ha d pretended to be working for Vice Media, knowing that they hire many young reporters. The central bank said that it is investigating the incident."

Ms Witt said she would continue to engage in "hardcore activism" in response to what she believed was an "undemocratic" ECB. She added that recent protests in Frankfurt during the opening of the ECB's new offices were a reaction to Mr Draghi's leadership. "[He] never got a mandate, never got voted for or elected," she said.

 

"He imposes policies on these societies that are completely undemocratic," she added. A friend of Ms Witt said she opposes what she describes as “European neo-liberalism”, and argued that the ECB cannot act “without a state of surveillance, of police and violence”.

 

The friend stated that Ms Witt wants “peace and happiness for our lives, for Greece, and for all countries around the Mediterranean sea.” Her aim is to introduce a new political order to replace the European Union, with “democracy, civil rights, solidarity, and no borders”, the friend said.

She criticized the ECB for believing itself to be “master of the universe”, warning that “you will hear our outcries louder, brighter, inside and outside your halls, everywhere, and you shall deserve no rest”. She nicknamed the letters "papillons", in reference to the messages distributed by French resistance fighters during the Second World War. Papillon is French for butterfly.

As can be read in her manifesto (below) she said: “I do not expect this illegitimate institution to hear my voice, neither to understand my message.” Making reference to her "butterflies" she continued: “Today I’m just a butterfly sending you a sentence, but be afraid more are coming.” The activist was dragged from the ECB’s press room and taken to a police station in Frankfurt. She claims she was held for around two-and-a-half hours before being released without charge.

She extensively documented her 15 minutes of fame on Twitter, which as of this moment had a total of only 33 tweets, the first of which is from February 25. The majority detail her intrusion into the Frankfurt bank's inner sanctum as follows:

 

This is her manifesto which she threw at Draghi while dumping confetti on him:

A closer read:

We own our own lives -

and in the face of the overwhelmingly powerful external
environment of the ECB’s monetary police,
sometimes it’s hard to remember.

 

We own our own lives -
and they’re not the chips in the ECB’s gambling game,
not to be played with, not to be sold, not to be devastated.

 

We own our own lives!
-will be the outcry of those who face repression,
when we begin to see our poverty not as personal defeat or unchangeable destiny.

 

ECB,
master of the universe,
I come to remind you that there is no god,
but there are people, behind those lives,
and if you rule instead of serving,
you will hear our outcries louder, brighter, inside and outside your halls, everywhere, and you shall deserve no rest.

 

And while the ECB can only persist in its autocratic hegemony, depending on states of surveillance and police,
finally, the daily violence is enrooted here,
we will find our radical answers
and act with no violence against those human disasters.

 

Because we will not accept the insane narrative that the ECB wants to impose to all people wherein even freedom of speech and dignity can be sold to the bank in order to survive. Persisting in its arrogance against the people, the ECB increases perilously its own debt to them. A press conference is not enough to call it "democracy".
I do not expect this illegitimate institution to hear my voice, neither to understand my message,
it would be too much to ask,
but I know for a fact that a lot of people do understand very well the matter.
Today I'm just a butterfly sending you a sentence, but be afraid more are coming. We will take back the power over our own lives.
The ECB’s debt is not yet paid.

Surprisingly coherent for a 21 year old.

At the end of the day one Mario Draghi was surely delighted that what the protester rained upon him today was soft and does not cause bodily harm. One can only hope confetti is the only thing that ever rains down on Draghi and other unelected central planners.

Exactly. The protest served its purpose.

Posted previously: I like her and I don't understand all the nasty posts. There are hundreds of thousands of young people at unis all over europe just like her who identify with the likes of Farage, Grillo et al and know a thing or two about the world around them by visiting sites like ZH. Unlike some other parts of the world (Ahem, across the Atlantic), people do get off their arses and protest in europe quite often. A non-violent protest against ECB leadership. Good for her.

Besides, if this had happened at the Fed, she would have been beaten half to death and tasered if she was lucky or just shot to pieces by the goons. We know it. I doubt she will even be prosecuted for this protest stunt.

Young people across the atlantic protest because unemployment is 30%+ in their demographic.  Don't worry, the US is catching up.  Pretty soon we will have a critical mass of slothful reprobates free for the latest rage du jour.

Again, she is a leftist and PRO active, centrally coordinated redistribution .

She isn't a free mkt type. She votes FOR redistribution in her politicians. And those pols, in turn, nominate these CBs.

She is upset her political vote didn't tranlate all the way through to the CB actions to redistribute TO HER. You think she'd be protesting if they were discussing trillions going to free education and free food?

She votes with those who practice 'some are more equal than others' but protests now BC she isn't the 'some' any more.

Sure, she is correct that the cb distorts and corrupts but her team put them in place promising similar redistribution.

I think someone (or more than one) are missing the larger, correct pointthat to live, having no real vote or representation, under a full fractional reserve bankster (enabled by the oligarchs of Krony Kapitalism) artifice, taxed, repressed & quashed by the NWO jet setting elite, attempting to plan the future of 7 billion human beings (who is playing "god" now? Mr. Gates? Mr. Blankfein? Draghi, Goldman alumn?) IS AN INHERENTLY EVIL ACT OF SOCIAL & ECONOMIC ENGINEERING & ENSLAVEMENT.

Who really does and doesn't have worthy religion? Just as the High Rabbis & High Priests in Jesus' time conspired to have that rebel crucified for daring to upset their profitable economic & social con over the masses...some things never change.

Control of what should be free individuals through bullshit, arbitrary, Caste system style rules...full Animal Farm or 1984 style.

They protest like this in Europe because they know they won't be cut down in a hail of bullets. In the US, only someone with a death wish or on a one-way assassination mission would do a stunt like that, because they wouldn't make it out of there in one piece.

YHC-FTSE: "I like her and I don't understand all the nasty posts."

well, she is young, cute, looks well-meaning and is protesting in a very non-violent way. there is little about her not to like

further, yes, there are hundreds of thousands of young people all over europe that are going to notice that, and hopefully they will protest, too

but Farage, Grillo and so on? the problem is in the details, here

her key message is that Draghi makes policy that has an impact on millions without being elected. a bit shallow, imo

yes, the ECB is full of appointed technocrats. but that's the point, they are appointed. they do not have a legitimacy of their own

that's because european countries in the eurozone have all their legitimacy derived from their elected parliaments, who then appoint or recall all the rest

actually even Cameron or Merkel or Tsipras aren't elected as Prime Ministers. yes, they campaign in elections as such. but in the election itself, they are elected or not in electoral districts as every other Member of Parliament, and then they are appointed to PM by their elected Parliaments. and they can be recalled, exactly in the same way as the ECB technocrats can be recalled anytime. they all have a boss, and that boss is the prime elected body called Parliament

so yes, I applaud the girl for her protest. no, that was not corageous as such, then yes, it is Europe, and she had only to wait two hours to be released without charges

nevertheless, her protest key message is very, very shallow, and in the context of our constitutions based on parliamentarism, a bit... childish

show me even one political system that is superiour to our classic parliamentarism and chances are we are probably already talking about the Swiss version with direct referenda, which is exactly that: parliamentarism with extra bells and whistles

and yet I prefer childish protest to no protest at all. but I do wish that childish protesters would grow up to in-depth critics, instead of becoming shallow populists like Farage and Grillo

can't fault this reasoning. though that's the problem: starting somewhere is good, but does she have an alternative proposal? a... policy? or is it just "whaa! whaa!" followed by "I don't like it!"?

or is she behaving like a child, asking grown-ups to analyze her problem and find a solution on her behalf, by articulating and legislating a better policy?

It should be illegal to make a career from public service... only well established, successful and proven people with a solid business background in the private sector,  should be allowed any say at all in public affairs....

As it stands, we get the worst of the worst, the most unskilled, talentless lawyers and academics, plain ponttifs who promise us a better day, where in reality they have no clue what they are doing, other than angling to hold onto their power trip...

Any lawyer can see the conflict of interest in 'hiring' people for a lifetime career in taking care of public affairs.... let them make their money, reputation and recognition in the real world first.... otherwise they only have their own self interests at heart.

@Ghordius. Hello mate. Sorry for the tardy reply. Bit of a crisis in the family today.

Not a lot I can find fault with your reasoning considering your legitimate albeit divergent views. But I do believe her protest is not so much about the leadership selection process in the ECB, rather the ECB's IMPOSITION of its policies on member states' local budgetary constraints, particularly troubled EU states - hence the DICKtatorship on her t-shirt. When you consider this, you may find that her views are neither shallow nor childish.

Yes, of course Farage and Grillo are populists. Arguably all politicians by nature are populists, whether in power or out of it. Like you, I used to argue the relative merits of a rather rude man big on shock values and small on critical content at the start of Farage's political career, but I have warmed to many of his ideas and most importantly his passion about democratic values. It remains to be seen whether such talk is just that - talk - if he ever gets into power. I have cultivated a distinctly low opinion of ALL the political classes through bitter experience. :)

Conchita van der Waal offered a range of 'kinky' services for €450 an hour

A leading bank official has been fired after being exposed as a Nazi-themed dominatrix.


The 46-year-old had worked at the central bank of the Netherlands for eight years. However, for the past six of them, she has also been offering her sexual services at more than £300 an hour.  Identified only by her ‘professional’ name, Conchita van der Waal, she asked clients for requests, saying ‘the kinkier the better’.

Her message is simple. "Look at me daddy, I'm an attention whore!"

Rest assured that on the happy day that banksterism is consigned to the graveyard of history, its ugly daughter feminism will be buried with it.

There's a reason that the only trade in which women consistently earn more than men is prostitution. Everything else a woman can do, a man or a computer can do much better and with much less of a sense of entitlement.

Also, the expulsion of Femen from Little Russia stands as one of Yanukovich's finest accomplishments. Would our own packs of feminist harpies left north America in fear of their lives, having discovered that actions have consequences even for women.

You should be ashamed that you don't have the courage to act as bravely she did.

What irreparable harm was done to her life or family because of her "bravery"? 100000s of Indians were killed when they protested British rule. This woman got detained for a few hours.

What is the significance of her act in light of the fact that it has temporarily put her under the spotlight, given wider exposure to her most likely imitative opinions, and scared a wimpy old man? Let's not get carried away by a pretty face - jumping onto furniture is not going to change the world for the better. Everyone in the world today talks about freedom and democracy, including Mario Draghi. Virtually noone, it seems to me, has a clear definition of what those words even mean. For the most part those words mean whatever people want them to mean at any moment. We live in a world where virtue abounds because it no longer means anything.

What did Jack Nicholson say in that movie, "You can't handle the truth."

There are many technocrats, bureaucrats, bankers, corporate execs who think they know better and use the MSM to placate the masses, but not her kind.

I am all for the likes of her.  Those are the people who provide catalyst to real hope and change.

The FEMEN group was created and organised by a man. Odd no?

Here is another FEMEN heroine demostrating outside the Trades Union House in Odessa May 2014. Shortly afterwards, the Nazis she was celbrating with burned the building down murdering about 50 people, mostly women and children. A pregnant women was raped by the attackers before being strangled with a telephone cord.

Size or weight does not matter when you're talking about an AK or any other firearm.  Even if Peter Dinklage would have catapulted himself onto that table and flashed an AK in front of Mario "The Count" Draghi he would have shit himself equally as much.  An AK is a game-changer no doubt, and Mario did get off easy with a glitter shower by an attractive young woman who is "awake" to the treachery of central banking in my opinion.  She's lucky the old sonuva gun didn't have a heart attack and turn him into a martyr.  Now THAT would have been a press conference.

To that end, I wholeheartedly approve of her actions, and quite frankly, i think this will help raise awareness about the central banking cartel dominion over our lives, and "wake more people up".  Maybe she is the catalyst?

I say good for her, as it sends the message that you can get your 15 minutes of fame by doing something that also happens to give people something to think about, knocks these elitist assholes down a notch, and generally requires people in her generation to get off their asses.

She is young, she has courage and I give her huge credit for her action and particularly her self-restraint. At least she is doing something. She got her message across without violence.

Draghi et al have messed-up big time for her generation. When people have nothing except despair, what have they to lose?

Most people are selfish and don't give a hoot about anyone else or what they are leaving behind. How sad. Draghi et al are corrupt and have sold their soul to the devil. They should all be thoroughly ashamed of their lifes work.

She is inspiring showing her bravery (okay and maybe a little too much else) to tackle issues she believes in. Wisdom will come with age.

Now, every single person who intelligently opposes the ECB is associated with a frantic godless woman who exposes herself in church.  Golly, gee!  Who benefits from that publicity???   Does it take a genius to see her stunt discredits any and all opposition to the bankers? 

 

Every single person who brings up any single issue she raised on her sheet of paper will be associated with her.  This is clearly controlled opposition.  Obviously it is working.
