Experts
I use the essential help of medical experts in my workplace. Today, the Internet offers us a thousand opportunities to find new and surprising views, as well as to see many manipulations, but when I meet wise people I sincerely thank them for their contributions. Without going too far, amid the turmoil and confusion of the pandemic, I found interesting experts, with judgment and costume, but unfortunately they did not take place in the mass media in order to give the light that was so necessary to us. These experts still help me to have another free and different look. The vast majority are and are “far-reaching losers”, especially as they remain far removed from obscure and dirty interests, and are also willing to change and improve the world.
"With disinformation about the pandemic and then in the field of geopolitics, we are working peacefully with the same pride and temerity as before"
But in front of these wise and bright women and men, every day other “experts” and “specialists” appear in the media. Some teachers, other “race journalists” or prestigious professionals willing to feed the dominant discourse of fear. The majority have repeatedly denied the possibility of any debate and, at the same time, have become spokespeople for the only dogma, mercilessly insulting different visions or dissidents.
And now, once again, history repeats itself: suddenly there are “experts” about war everywhere. Moreover, some are repeating their role, and with disinformation about the pandemic and then in the field of geopolitics, calmly, with the same pride and temerity as before. They confuse countless data on weapons, military strategies or the needs and damage of the population. By playing with terrible images of so many people, dead or alive, they show a huge lack of respect and an excessive disgrace. Their only goal is to create primary emotions: hatred and fear. We must not forget that all these “winning experts” defend very specific interests and that oligopolist communications use them for this purpose.
That is, unfortunately, the communication business today and here, and that is why we should do a lot to explore alternative sources of information, despite the views of the “long-term losers”.

I received your e-mail in personal mail on the strike portals. At first, like many others, I thought it was to let you know what options we have in the face of the strike. But no, the e-mail received was a political and communicative movement against the strike.

This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]
The other day in Bilbao, I met a friend at the Bira bar. We were very happy at the Tar and I said: “Of course, since you’re Guipúzcoa, hahahaha.” And he insisted that he was not Guipuzcoan. Without me understanding it, I kept saying, “Ah! Is it not? You were born in New... [+]
