The opposition parties<\/b> seek to formulate an agenda on a dilemma that suits them in terms of how to deal with government<\/b> and Kyriakos Mitsotakis.<\/b><\/p>\n
That is, they are looking for a new “memorandum-anti-memorandum” to step on. <\/b>Whether it’s the rule of law and corruption<\/b> or the “evil” right-wing and neoliberalism that they constantly invoke, the essence of the tactic remains the same<\/b> as the one that brought Syriza<\/b> to power in 2015.<\/p>\n
Angry leaders and cadres show a country on the brink of disaster<\/b>and, with an outstretched finger to the ruling party, talk about catharsis and invoke some supposed moral advantage.<\/b><\/p>\n
It’s not just the attempt to criminalize political life, nor the promises without repercussions. It is also the search for… barbarians,<\/b> as it happened after 2011, when everything was the fault of… foreigners and bad governments.<\/p>\n
Today we see an attack on banks, energy companies <\/b>and anyone else the country’s “messiahs” who supposedly care for the welfare of ordinary… people can think of as a… class enemy.<\/p>\n
See, for example, the issue of the… patriotic tax that Alexis Tsipras<\/b> frequently brings up and the Androulakis<\/b> statements about taxing super profits. For the record, nrecall the… pledges to abolish ENFIA, <\/b>which were then announced to be paid by citizens as a “patriotic duty”.<\/p>\n
The logic of looking for… barbarians to create dilemmas, as well as the catastrophism combined with the creation of a toxic political climate, confirm the emptiness of proposals and arguments.<\/b><\/p>\n
The precision and inflation that the constant international crises have caused serve these narratives, only the vast silent majority is looking for stability<\/b> and especially a leadership to address problems and optimally manage crises that go far beyond the country’s borders.<\/p>\n
Anyone who thinks that citizens “don’t understand what they are voting for” is out of touch with reality. <\/b>As is anyone who reckons that slogans of decades past still resonate.<\/p>\n
Nobody is arguing that everything is done and done perfectly. First of all, Kyriakos Mitsotakis. But no one can argue that leaps have not been made in the economic, defence, diplomatic and general armouring of the country.<\/b><\/p>\n
