To be stupid, foolish, vulgar and violent…To compare apples and oranges…To be (intentionally) blind before the obvious theft, and to even justify it…To call for someone’s murder, rape, lynch…To swear and lie…What kind of satisfaction is that?
The answer (mostly), is, nevertheless, in politics. Politics are filled with ravenous, stupid, thick-headed, vulgar and violent characters. It is a space from where occupation in all possible ways is planned and carried out. It is the space in which those characters protect their own incapability with the lowest moral deformations.
Hypertrophy
“Madness is rare in individuals; but in groups, parties, nations and ages it is the rule” – writes Friedrich Nietzsche, who recently was also quoted by the convicted Dr. Nikola Zh. Gruevski, of course, not forgetting to glorify also Todor Aleksandrov and some of his victims. Apples and oranges…He doesn’t know any better…
The madness of our time is accompanied with hypertrophied stupidity. Like swarms of mutated insects with a womb filled with poison, the absent-minded party soldatesque has flooded the public and media space. A mad and violent regime, trampling everything in front of it, was building a nest for them.
One cannot expect anything better from this kind of public, when we are also physically occupied from Skopje 2014, when the media are flooded with cheap non-sense and mental sadomasochism. When generations of half-literate bullies are cultivated from as early as their school days, who tomorrow will become even worse than their current politicians and social mentors, we cannot expect development of a democratic and political culture in which virtuous and civilized values are fostered.
So much for that!
Overall social “aggravation”
Ah! And that global toy for “those poor in spirit”- the social networks…That space that, instead of bringing people closer together, distances them from each other more than ever. A place where the mental and emotional masturbation, in the Macedonian and political context, is turned into the essence of life. Overall “aggravation”, in which honesty, transparency, impartiality and neutrality have become the main slogan – exactly what what we don’t have!
What kind of impartiality and neutrality are the pathetic inquisitors talking about on the social networks, with or without a party order? To make things clearer, those who are without a party order does not mean they are not party inspired, it’s just that they want to impress a party or municipal captain.
Nothing can be enough neutral, honest, impartial for them, because they are trapped in their own dishonesty, trapped in the labyrinths of fake news, political and structural violence and demagogy. Those who for years were silent most of all, are now “concerned” for everyone, absolutely everyone, to be neutral. It usually comes down to “its Hitler’s fault, but the Jews are also to blame” …
Shitheads
Those who don’t know how to express their thoughts and don’t know what what they would do with their time and their space, those who aren’t aware that they have both time and space to express themselves, find it normal to shit in some else’s backyard, even if that were to be a virtual space on the social networks. Shitheads!
People with a name and last name, with families and some kind of life, have lost their dignity and have spit on their own image and the image of their families…Why? So that they can serve the crime in the political elites. An ever-present situation of rapture that turns your stomach upside down…
But…Time will tell everything. We live fast, so rarely do we wait for too long for things to be become clear even for the most naïve. And there’s nothing to explain to those who read selectively, or forget (un) deliberately. It’s no use for them to read. The party catechism is enough for them, there’s no need for them to lose time in reading texts to which afterwards they react with hatred, where they risk revealing the things they’re even hiding from themselves.
Egoism
Egoism is a weight on the ankle of most of the people in politics and in the public sphere. They don’t understand, nor want to understand that in politics they have a chance to become a moral paradigm, to serve society. They most often enter politics because they want to be powerful, to trample, while at the same time to get rich. And that’s all. Regardless of how much they might be convinced in the noble mission they are fulfilling, their egoism, self-esteem and immodesty will take them to the wrong place in history and in the present. Some of them might even end up in prison.
Many will get away by bargaining. Of course, most of them are devious, so they will melt into new structures of power and will live their life in lavishness, surrounded by magical mirrors in which they look beautiful. The ones that suffer are the mass of people who live with the diseases of time, and with time they themselves become a disease.
Only a team (or person) with many serious problems in their personality can order such a video from the grotesque guard-house of VMRO-DPMNE’s party headquarters. That is no longer propaganda, but rather material for observation and diagnosis in closed departments of mental health institutions. And – this is just one of the numberless examples…
The tragedy (madness) is in that we have seen many such (audio/video) creations in the past decades, so the public has gotten used to them. And not only did it get used to them, but it also got addicted to them. Part of the public blindly believes in those notorious nonsenses. The other part is in search of equivalents to those nonsenses. Nonsense after nonsense.
