Intersectionality - one of the few terms [for now] that has not been taken over and thrown back at us as an insult. The most vulnerable people are affected by a multitude of discriminations. When a group of so called 'radical feminists' exclude Sex Workers [SWERF] or Transpeople [TERF] it also feels like a takeover of the term: feminism.

The Slogan: Macht aus dem Staat Gurkensalat (in its orginal Swiss German version: Machet usem Staat Gurkesalat) [Turn the state into cucumber salad] from the 80ies is transformed into a feminist message: Macht aus dem Patriarchat Gurkensalat [Turn the patriarchy into cucumber salad].

Patriarchy is still one of the fundamental structural problems in our societies. It remains the breeding ground for sexist thinking and the blueprint for power from the top down. We have not managed to smash it, yet already we see this massive anti-feminist backlash from without – and within like from the tiktoked hipsterification of tradwifes or TERFs or many other forms of "enemy feminisms" > Sophie Lewis newest book: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2440-enemy-feminisms

This collage* is an homage to the famous slogan from more than fifty years ago. During the uprising in May 1968 they wrote the following in the streets of Paris: « Sous les pavés, la plage ! », which translates to: «Under the cobblestones, the beach!». A shout out for freedom and liberation.

With the upcoming Women’s Day on march the eighth, the feeling of rage drives us as we speak out against all ongoing violence and murders/femicides.

* The slogan was first pasted in the streets of Paris in 2024. [CW Meta: https://www.instagram.com/collages_feminicides_paris/]

Does this sound shocking?! In the following article [in German], comparing the numbers of these last years, they found every third murder in switzerland to be a femicide: https://daslamm.ch/maenner-toeten-frauen-und-die-schweiz-nimmt-es-hin/

For the past years the total added up to one femicide every 2 weeks. So far the news in 2025 are pointing to a doubling of this sad and grim balance: There were 8 femicides in 8 weeks. How is this possible?!

It feels like in this collage, ‘rapist’ could easily be replaced with ‘fascist’/‘racist’/‘transphobe’/etc. It is beyond comprehension how a convicted felon and rapist could take office as the president of the so called United States – notably for the second time. If only the implications would be limited to his country. But we live in a troubled world with wars, genocide, climate catastrophes and a capitalist system that marginalises so many people. This has to be addressed on a global level. As much as the Nazi-Salute of Elon Musk at the inauguration sends a clear message to the far right, Trump being a rapist encourages all the Andrew Tates out there to act in impunity… these are really dark and difficult times.

Date: 27/11/2024 Location: Bern, Ladenwand-Passerelle. November 25th was the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. #Femicides are the tip of the iceberg. Unlike domestic violence, they sometimes get covered in the media here in Switzerland. Even though media coverage did improve in recent years, a femicide too often gets framed as a 'family drama' or 'tragedy'. Call it what it is, murder. The power of the media and its use of language should never be underestimated in the trivialisation of femicide. Photo description: The photo shows a wall with posters in front of a train station. A feminist collage is pasted on it and reads: «FEMINIZIDE: • F̶A̶M̶I̶L̶I̶E̶N̶D̶R̶A̶M̶A̶ • MORD» which translates to «FEMINICIDE: • F̶A̶M̶I̶L̶Y̶D̶R̶A̶M̶A̶ • MURDER» #Feminist #FeministStrike #Femicide #Feminicide #Feminizid #PatriarchyKills #Collage #FeministCollage #CollagesFeministes #Bern #Switzerland #Féminicide #MeToo #GreveFeministe #Sexism #WomanLifeFreedom #Revolution #NiUnaMenos

The slogan «Woman, Life, Freedom» has its origins in the women-led Kurdish movement (Jin, Jiyan, Azadî). It was picked up by the protests in Iran in 2022, following the death of Mahsa Amini, who was killed by the so called ‘morality’ police for not dressing up to their standards.

In October 2024 in a widely shared video on social media, we saw a woman in Teheran walking around in her underwear. It is reported that she acted in protest after being assaulted by campus security guards. The authorities on their part frame it as a mental breakdown. Another classic chess move in the sexist game of discrediting women, of denying their bodily autonomy and their right to protest against repressions.

The term «Ni una menos» grew out of a grassroots feminist movement - started in Argentina and spread across the globe.
