I have stopped following the policy news on the ground. A quick review of the press during breakfast, a selection of some interview or report of later interest and the rumor of the short radio stations to the shower. Now, that's the time that I spend from my precious time getting to know the fresh facts. Total, what for? We are told what they want, only what they want, as long as they are interested and, of course, interpreted as they want. I live like this better, quieter, less rage and lighter.

No, don't misunderstand. It is not that I am not interested in politics, that I believe that what happens does not affect us, or that in ignorance I have no other purpose than to guarantee my well-being. The truth is that it does not seem to me that nowhere is there a discourse that really moves away from the official narrative of power, and not only in its own means, which would not be surprising, but also by the mouth or pen of those others who claim to be against that discourse. The nuances are interpretations that are of interest to the nuances, to the powerful, or that, at best, are easily tolerable because they do not involve great losses.

Authoritarian systems are characterized by allowing only a single ideology and trying to stop any uprising against the status quo through a violent threat. Democracy, however, is characterised by freedom of expression, which also gives the measure of the democratic level of this system, together with other freedoms.

I am not saying anything new, I know, but I am saying this because of the confusion that still exists in the case of the authoritarians who want to disguise themselves as a democracy. They have to make them believe that there is freedom (because the appearance in the world of monolithic ideology is a shameful thing, even for the most irreverent regimes), but making sure that from that monopoly of power they have they will not lose a dream.

They must pretend that they accept dissent, but because they do not want to pay dearly, they have to ensure that dissent is not real, that it is not from those that might jeopardise the regime. For them, the diversity of opinions is only the missing piece of the cosmetic operation machine that needs to be applied to the assembly, but to make it work better, never to spoil the system, to see if we learn. Thus, they design an orbit in which critical thinking is developed, well embracing the frame of reference and the walls that will be obstacles to looking beyond implementation in strategic places. In these times power is also the manufacturer of revolutionary ideology that supposedly opposes official ideology.
If you can, of course. And I'm going to do that.

Very easy for Basques. They have enough simple provocation strategy to guide us, to predict our movements, to lead our policy. It is a policy of reaction that needs strong resistance from the people, of which the surprise/complaint is still expressed for what they have done to us over the centuries, and they are asked to commit themselves to us.
That's what we call politics. And indeed. But Spanish (or French).

These are perfectly touched bulls, innocent sick people who, without course and desperately, move only in the direction desired by the torero, do not bleed. It is a show of bad taste, but well, we do it for those Spaniards who have as bad taste as to love bulls. Shame neighborhood.
