How much is important?

As the fall ends, the crows appear on Basque Day, in the Basque era or in the Durango Fair. Aware of the results of socio-linguistic surveys on the use of Euskera, the "politically corrective" exercise has no longer drawn anyone's attention. Without Ttattarri, with cool and smiling in the mouth, all show their support for the Basque Country and the Basque culture. Ha, ha, ha. They buy books of the year that they'll never read and make lifelong statements. “Basque culture is very important.”

But how important is it? You have to go to the heart of the challenge: all of that. How much does the money matter? Because here the agents of the Basque culture feed this very important culture hungry. The new Lanartea survey is based on the precariousness of cultural and creative actors, to the detriment of supply and accessibility.

The works created and produced in Basque, made impossible by the policies of the current administrations, cannot reach the majority of Basque citizenship. In our country, this organized and systematic discrimination would not be possible without the loophole of the political class. The desidia, the ignorance, the complex of the colonized, the lack of ambition, the acculturation -- I don't know what drives the continued cultural destruction that we live.

It is forbidden for our youth to develop Basque thought and sensibility, since the obligation that any system should promote is not guaranteed: a dignified cultural education that entails the capacity for emancipation. That's what squeezes my heart and my throat, not my trade. After all, I have chosen my trade, but my children have not chosen this situation. They are forced to flourish in a language that is not theirs and under models that are foreign to them, turning the Basque language into a foreign language and transferring the Basque culture to the status of "paleo-culture".

In our country, without the neglect of the political class, this organized and systematic discrimination would not be possible.

Vultures always come to enjoy the flesh of the body thanks to the crow. Currently, according to a study conducted by Stanford University, 60.76% of love encounters are performed online. I mean, most love stories are marketed. The model developed by these platforms is radically patriarchal and speaks Spanish or French. The intimacy of society has also been sold, in an economic way, so that we can open up and evolve in a language that forces us to internal exile. I speak of our children, their hearts, their souls, their lumps and their ovaries. The crows sold for the pleasure of vultures.

In the dance of the negotiation of the annual budgets, the Basque culture has not been a head of line; neither head of line, nor theme, surely. Although it is very important, because Basque culture is not really a subject. However, it would not be so expensive to guarantee the basic rights of our youth. By promoting simple things, you could turn the situation around in a decade.

Written in figures, every year, every child and every young person will be entitled to enjoy a couple of plays, a couple of books, a couple of records, a couple of movies, or a couple of bertsolaris performances, for their well-being and emancipation. Every week, a couple of poems to express love, outside the culture of the switch.

I do not know how and when we stand up to the deceit of the crows, but sooner or later we will be forced not to be the accomplices of the colonization of our brains and our hearts. Or yes. It's a matter of choice.
