Revolutionary-era Americans had the “Join or Die” snake. Second World war had William of Orange, a pigeon, (honoured for his role in Operation Market Garden in 1945). Narnia had Aslan.

In a Greece struggling another symbol of revolution is rising. They call him either “Riot-Dog” or “Rebel-Dog”, depending on the source.

From pictures it could also be interpreted that Riot dog is trying to mediate between rioters and police: which shows a true utopian instinct.

“Utopia is on the horizon: When I walk two steps, it takes two steps back. I walk ten steps, and it is ten steps further away. What is Utopia for? It is for this, for walking.”
Eduardo Galeano
