"Eraser and new account"

The behavior of the Mexican right.

Absent Chronicles

Lenin Torres Antonio

The tenacious attempt of the Mexican right continues to surprise me to behave as if they had never governed the country, and even to try to convey that, if they had, they would have done well and better than the current federal government. To act as tenacious democrats, defenders of the law, transparency and honesty, and mainly as if all their lives they had been defenders of the unprotected, marginalized and poor, and that their passage through politics has to do with a proven vocation of serve society and be with the interests of the majority and the people of Mexico, and the most cynical, that they care about Mexico.

Since they lost public power, they have mounted a persistent dirty war to discredit and build in the collective unconscious a forgetfulness in the Mexican that allows locating the problems of Mexico in the present, as if history were isolated events that have nothing to do with the ones. with the others. Sometimes they surrealistically act with rhetoric and schizophrenic behavior, blurring their personality and giving it birth at a specific time, as if they had no prior record, “much less criminal”, and as a frequent joke among their own political class, that they make one to another, when they are in a group and one of them arrives and says, "There they add up to a good thousand years in jail", in other times it would be the gallows, and now they were other human beings, that's how we see Dante Delgado act Rennauro, Vicente Fox Quesada, Felipe Calderón Hinojoza, Diego Cervantes de Cevallos, Ricardo Anaya, Osorio Chong, Margarita Zavala, etc., among many others from the PRianist right-wing political class, and among communicators, Carlos Loret de Mola, Ferriz de Con, Denise Dresser, José Cárdenas, Joaquín López Dórigan, Adela Micha, Brozo, now a critic and intellectual of politics, among many other "communicators", and what to say about the businessmen who made their juicy profits colluded with the power in turn, Carlos Slim, Salinas Pliego, Larrea, Azcárraga, etc., as well as many others, and of the intellectuals and academics who served the previous conservative system, and who, unfortunately, despite having knowledge, evaded a critical culture, all in complicity and silence, and now come severe critics of the regime in turn, as if their sins were exempted and forgiven (participate in corruption and remain silent in the face of the looting of the public coffers and the deterioration of our society and state), it is an attempt to "clean the slate", to spontaneously proceed to be renewed irreproachable democrats, defenders of the division of powers, scrupulous adherents to the law and order, sublime sensitive of those who have the least and unprotected, staunch feminists, environmentalists of strain, and unquestionable moralists and defenders of truth and good manners.

They shamelessly stroll through television panels and social media spaces, spouting without rhyme or reason their “counterarguments” against the new established order, at face value, under pain of feeling guilty, they cannot miss any topic or fact no matter how trivial Let it be to remove a "political slit", always thinking that their accusations and arguments can be devastating, accusing the government of President Obrador of being the cause and guilty of all the evils that have occurred and are due to Mexico; and always running into the wall, with the ballot box vote, with an awakened Mexican people. With just a single act and deed, President Obrador has left them speechless or arguing, although they continue to shout, because now the money does not go to their pockets (politicians, communicators and businessmen) but to social programs that benefit their victims of their mischief, the poor and marginalized, who are the most; Although it must be said, although this does not solve the problem of poverty, economic development and security in Mexico, but at least the foundations are being laid for it.

And that surely a six-year term or many more will not be enough, if he follows that right without assuming his mea culpa, and they continue with their Goebbelian fascist behavior and do not join the reconstruction of Mexico, or the peaceful 4T of Mexico, or to rescue the people, and fundamentally that they understand that the new political culture implies not only a clinic of the social (a culture of decency in the affairs of the res publica) but also an intense personal psychoanalysis of each of the actors in public life of Mexico, that is, take the political class to the couch, if they want to continue doing high politics, although the best thing would be a replacement from that conservative and sick political class.

It does not matter if their accusations may be laughable, which by the way most are, now they do not have time for the form, what matters are the "deep contents" of their political, academic and intellectual considerations and positions; At the end of the day, the objective is one, to unravel Q4, although they do not realize that every historical rupture is not in itself an ideological or economic position, but that does not matter to them, what they care about is that “those upstart pythons and revolutionaries "must be taken away from public power, always with a fine nose longing for the good old days, where the" state treasury "was for a few, making what a columnist wrote a long time ago, who unfortunately do not remember his name. , "The true fund of politics in Mexico is the state budget", that raises the dead and is a very powerful reason to continue the fight even if they look incoherent, ambitious, and cowardly.

Without shame, as I said, as if they were others, strangers, strangers to that ominous past of the corrupt and decadent neoliberal periods that caused the public crisis that we are still experiencing, they speak of impartiality, democracy, human rights, social justice, plurality, transparency. , etc., as if they were terms that were known and professed all their lives, and the most ill, when they dismiss this regime of Andrés Manuel López Obrador as a dictatorship, as a state intervention in politics, as a use of the state budget for political aims, of corruption, of the lack of freedom of expression, as if all their lives they had acted in accordance with those precepts and against what they accuse the progressive government of Obrador.

Today we live a freedom of expression that borders on vulgarity, daily systematic bombings against the presidential figure, now if the tlatoani can be touched and vulgarized, before it was a taboo and totemic topic, we see the string of insults and parodies of President Obrador; There is a division of powers that is sustained by sighs from the other times when the presidential power was unique and overwhelmed the other powers, and we see how the judiciary resists changes and sighs for the benefits generated by its submission to the executive power; Now every government act and public policy is observed with a magnifying glass, before no one said anything, either out of fear, complicity, or carelessness, since there was only one political, business and media class, as they were the members of the network of complicities, where all of them took their "slice of the cake" and in return they proclaimed silence, discretion and loyalty, so it was very important that they knew that "the form was substance".

As you see in this country of Alice in Wonderland, the reality is more twisted than that playful and surreal tale, because the twisted reality that they have lived, and that the Mexican right is trying to return, has brought dire consequences: poverty, death, disappearances , marginalization, and the most regrettable thing, they have caused the loss of certainty of the future of the new generations of Mexicans

The future does not look rosy, because that Mexican right has no scruples, and I doubt that they will assume their mea culpa, it will surely continue its dirty war making use of all its (economic) means to achieve its dire goals, although I am confident that it will continue to run into the wall of voting and social conscience. Although I regret that this is the case, but I do not see the slightest intention of that Mexican right to do politics in a debate of ideas, presenting alternative national projects and behaving ethically responsible in their political exercise.

It is not worth doing politics with an a priori "a no is no", ignoring the obvious, the high platform, assuming the 4T as the common place of the new Mexican politics, well it is, because the 4T is not owned by anyone, It is a historical break from where the new Mexico must be built, the new political culture of decency, the new efficient and democratic governments, the real and participatory democracy, the new system of autonomous and independent parties from the economic and media power, if not they want to repeat the mistakes of the past and the characters of the "channel of the stars" come to rule, and a businessman "x" follows leading the political opposition in Mexico, and subordinate to what remains of that narrow and sick Mexican right.
