There comes a time when one feels frozen inside, unable to think or move. It is that moment in the history of our country where everything has been put in an automatic regulator, giving an impression of movement. But this movement is presented with substance and soul, driven by preor-organized compulsions.
The recent announced mass convictions reflect the intellectual and moral bankruptcy that state institutions, especially the Judiciary, seem to be suffering. Instead of adhering to the established principles of jurisprudence, these convictions are driven by the need to punish people only because they advocate for a particular cause.
The recent trials granted, based on the evidence provided by two witnesses of prosecution that apparently hide (one behind a sofa and the other under a table) in the room where a conspiracy was supposedly developed, they are simply hilarious and would not be sustainable in any independent court of justice.
However, such credible and independent courts have become a pipe summary, which moves further over time as government ministers promote what they refer to as a hybrid system, where authority does not come from the book of statutes, but from the interests of the beneficiaries that dictate how things should be done. In the process, justice always becomes the main victim.
These dispensations generally have a brief life cycle, since personalized arrangements cannot replace an institutional approach perfected for centuries of work in search of excellence dedicated to the benefit of states and people. Justice remains the main base on which is the building of a progressive society and well -being oriented. While incessant efforts are invested in further improving the existing model, no one thinks of manipulating the substance and soul of the base on which the structure rests.
Instead of using the collective wisdom of people and learning from past experiences, when individual fantasies become the dominant driver in the configuration of the way to follow, generally Boomerange in the form of an avalanche, taking everything on their way. There is no distinction between good and bad, or useful and useless.
Everything is reduced to becoming part of a clueless dough, which, not able to resist the ferocity of the flood that is approaching, is washed. We have suffered this repeatedly, however, we have refused to learn from such experiences. Instead, we insist on repeating our mistakes.
From a sincere fundamental attempt to establish democracy that was repeatedly interrupted by demolishing the holders, the martial law, to a basic democracy system, to more martial laws with interludes of controlled life already often manipulated experiments of the experiments that now have the things that are now staying in the quote of the dirt of the dirty of the housings. system we follow.
Actually, there is nothing that can be called a system. It is simply a collective of interest search engines that say the direction that the country must take, so that its wealth deposits and power continue to multiply. Having staggered so far, we are now lost in a maze of imponderables where any remains of this manufacturing is being hostage by the same group of the beneficiary elite that continue to insist that they have been right, and that will take it in their own way.
There is this persistent crush when practicing the same defective model in the hope that, this time, it will offer different results. Through repeated experiments, this has not happened in the past, since in fact it will not do so in the future. In this search, the institutional capacity and the capacity of the State suffer to the point of becoming dysfunctional. Recent judicial decisions are a manifestation of this institutional collapse of the tomb.
We have lived in a pretext world for a long time, to total detriment. There comes a time in the life of a nation when people must put their heads together, take off their fantasy clothes and face reality in their brutal totality. That is the need for current times. Giving endeble land punishments is dividing an already fractional nation.
History has also established that peace cannot be assured under the glove of the sword. It will be ensured through the exercise of reason, logic and compassion. It will ensure when people have the confidence that they will be treated with full compliance with the law of the Earth. At this time, we are far from that end and we move away further.
We are tired. If we continue advancing on the current route, we head towards exhaustion and despair. That is when the distinction between the right and the incorrect disappears completely and one begins to operate without importance of the consequences. We are not very far from that stage.
Drift to current times may not have been difficult, but the recovery trip will be a challenge. In this search, we will be faced with the beneficiary’s elite, which is responsible for taking this country to a skeleton and leaving it on the road with a bowl of begging in hand. This is an unfortunate state that should evoke a collective response of all those who take care of their home, where they were born and where they can still have a promising and profitable future. But that will not fall on its laps. They have a fight by hand.
A revenge approach will cause more division. We cannot be club exclusively as angels or demons. We are human beings, fallible in our behavior. We should adopt a flexible approach, willing to examine without prejudice to why we have reached this situation and how we can get ourselves out of the movements and in which we are perched. Stay there is no option, since we will continue to be absorbed more deeply over time.
A claim of justice is the exclusive domain of anyone. We can all be right, and we can all be wrong. The greatness of one rests by accepting reality without any pretense clothes. We have used the combat mold for a long time. We should save it. A linear model is not always the best option. It must come with its tones and colors to attract a larger meeting of people.
Our Deliras Indulgences of the past have taken us to the edge of destruction. Truth and reconciliation can pave the way to a future that benefits everyone. It’s time to join.
