However, behind the <b>heavy complaints<\/b> about &#8220;<b>taxes<\/b>&#8220;, &#8220;bloody <b>plevenues<\/b>&#8221; and &#8220;definitive <b>reversal<\/b>&#8220;, the party&#8217;s <b>longstanding inability<\/b> to move <b>from complaint to proposal<\/b> is once again highlighted. The insistence <b>on an ideological narrative of conflict<\/b>with everything and everyone <b>does not seem to answer the real issues of economy<\/b>, <b>growth<\/b> and stability, but rather <b>to trap the party itself in a vicious circle of political self-sufficiency<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>The <b>KKE has rediscovered the &#8220;miserable politics&#8221; of the government<\/b>. Only, as is usually the case, <b>the complaint says more about the complainant<\/b> than about its <b>target<\/b>.<\/p>\n<h3>The constant invocation of &#8220;subversion&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>With expressions like &#8220;bloody surpluses&#8221; and &#8220;tax hikes&#8221;, the party attempts to describe a picture of universal disaster, conspicuously ignoring that the economy operates in a specific European and international framework, with rules, balances and obligations. The easy rhetoric of conflict may serve ideological purity, but it does not produce policy.<\/p>\n<p>Even more problematic is the constant invocation of &#8220;subversion&#8221;. Subversion of what, in what terms and with what plan? On these questions the KKE is ostentatiously silent. For it is one thing to call for a struggle and another to present a workable proposal for governance in a complex economy.<\/p>\n<p>The insistence on a narrative where &#8220;business groups&#8221;, &#8220;armaments&#8221; and the system as a whole are to blame for everything ultimately leads to a political monologue that is unconvincing beyond a narrow audience. And as long as the KKE remains locked into this logic, it will confirm the characterization that it ascribes to itself: not of the government, but of its own political presence.<\/p>\n<p>For the real misery in politics is not the pursuit of difficult policies in a demanding environment. It is the refusal to propose anything realistic and limiting oneself to slogans that have been repeated for decades without impact.<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The KKE attacks the government with familiar rhetoric about &#8220;subversion&#8221;, but recycles slogans without a realistic proposal for the country.With the familiar, &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3241,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3240","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3240"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3240\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
