Ofuscada dualidad,
by Alberto Medina Méndez.
A hallmark of these times is that of the fiery confrontation that involved every political debate. Opposing positions, culminating in discussions invariably angry, with protagonists who are deaf, to pose others.
engaged in the same vision, the majority, are defeated by passion. Posed almost all athletic competition in which there winners and losers.
For them just about being right at any price, and argue with what is at hand to ensure that the premises conform to the expected outcome. A deplorable intellectual habit that first establishes the intended conclusion, then select the premises that best suit desired.
Finally, everything is reduced to ruling party and opposition.
If the place from which we speak is the trench close to power, for everything the government does will be great. The officials are honest, professionally prepared, balanced in his speech, Democrats tolerant, great leaders and how much praise is within reach.
Everything they do looks, even mistakes. When they are wrong even convince us, that's only part of a deliberate and intelligent plan that includes error and gear essential to the successful process. Self-criticism is not on the agenda, under any circumstances.
thus ruling fundamentalists, sycophants and pimps, many of them plagued by economic reasons, to defend tooth and nail collected personal position, that allows them to bring money home, and operates exclusively in line with their own convenience. Not defend their beliefs, but only their material interests.
The privileged of power, perks and favors that receive direct should at least keep decorum when they praise the current government because they understand the generalities of the law. Speaking of the railroad beliefs weakened, when behind each explanation underlying the attitude of checkout charged for each flattery. A fee of dignity should contain the euphoric reaction leading the dollar sign in front.
But there are also other, ordinary citizens, genuine defenders of fault, those who are attracted to certain ideas and projects being undertaken by the ruling party and falling into the trap of "accept everything" as if it were a combo, in which the choices are "take it or leave it."
People walk, workers, men away from political activity and not receiving anything in return, enter the dynamics of intransigence. Discussed fervently defending their rulers as his own project.
The hire of this phenomenon is lived in the same way, the opposition side. In this case, the premise is that anything that the officer is called to be a failure before taking his first step.
enlisted in this position, resentful chronic endemic failures and customary vengeful. They criticize everything from the time you wake up the officials, even the color of his shirt.
Any fact, however slight, will be oversized to attribute a further blow to those in power. Nothing makes the ruling party can be either repeating the formula that starts and ends with the conclusion in the premises.
The paradox is that this blindness remains over time. Change only under certain circumstances. The years will the ruling party in opposition and vice versa, and the same passion to defend what it will be present again, now with the sign reversed.
recalcitrant That ruling will be the most ardent opponent when you come to be on the side of the street. And that he devoted long hours to the complaint, relativize any attack on their turn to exercise power.
living daily with this duality, this paradoxical attitude zigzagging to defend the indefensible, always with twisted arguments. As if all was well, as if everything was wrong. In both cases, one side or the other, the eternal child exalted cartoon shows a half-reality, a photograph that portrays us in an incomplete manner.
We need a society become more measured, with the criterion sufficient to give testimony as superficial, impudent and jargon fanaticism pamphlet, setting aside short-term power struggles that only get and unsuccessful repeat the old recipes of the past.
is not a dispute in which sport shirt dress of our team. This is more complex, and especially more significant. It's the world we live in the country that holds us, the city where we walked. It is the present and future and, above all, of our children.
exasperation only carries the skids, to bring out the worst of itself, to disqualify prior to argue, from revilers prejudices rather than actively listening to those offering a different look . Everything he says the other is "trash" for these players who are imbued with pride when they say what they think. They are full of hate and radiate a deep and absolute contempt for others.
Such banal discussion, which only focuses on winning the next pulse on the assumption that the electoral fight that gets the most votes is right, it's just a sample of this pathetic way of seeing democracy, the republic and the whole policy.
Our societies will evolve to the extent that we are able to reason, to think, to discuss intelligently with suitable arguments to overcome the proposed and why not, with different ideological perceptions, sharing fields plural, as ultimately happens in life.
reductionism we always offer the misfits, the one side, opponents and officials, will continue to deepen this vision of war camps, groups opposing antagonistic facing, where what matters is to impose as being right, to subjugate the minority, to finally crush them and make them fight for the dispute to a single space.
The language of peace and harmony, of reason and common sense, dialogue and respect, agreement and consensus, have no place in the belligerent language that we propose the owners of this obscured duality.
Editor's Note:
believe that the writer, which basically refers to what is happening in Argentina, perfectly describes the reality we are living in Chile.
