Moltissimi anni fa, quando ancora si sapeva cosa fosse la politica, in campagna non era difficile imbattersi in cartelli recanti la scritta “frutta avvelenata” (o, in taluni casi, “invelenata”). It was the unmistakable signal that you could touch and even eat less.
Then one day, the revelation. That same fruit was loaded sull'ApeCar to be sold to the farmer's market and then come straight to our tables. In essence, the farmer was assumed that the more appropriate "not stolen" is less effective dell'incutere fear, after all fictitious, to remain stiff.
Today, as we have the feeling that a lot of words on election participation and listening only the shell remains with the sad sign "Do not touch the elect." Manco were the power lines!
paraphrase Baudelaire, we could say that the politician (if that word still has any meaning) is such only if it preserves its vulnerability, as the son of the people and for our peers, and maintains its sensitivity to interpret the dissent. In whatever form it occurs.
Moreover, since the dawn of time, the public irritated by the mockery of the critics (who, it should be remembered, as "violent" is always an element of truth, whether direct or indirect) is intended, inevitably , to make others laugh. And it is noto che, quando le allusioni, anche grevi, colpiscono il bersaglio, quest'ultimo ha ben poco da ridere e cerca un illusorio riparo nel suo temporaneo (nel senso che non è eterno) stato di potere.
In fondo, è risaputo che solo chi non ha la coscienza a posto ha reazioni scomposte nei confronti di coloro che glielo fanno notare, anche in maniera per così dire “volgare”.
Alla fine, come sempre, i valori (se ci sono) vengono fuori e saranno i fatti a fornire la migliore risposta. Il nostro compito non è quello di trovare le soluzioni, ma di suggerire punti di vista differenti. Solo il cambio di prospettiva può essere la essential to elicit the desire to better understand and encourage the public to question. Even so, dear elected by the people, act under a mandate of representation and not on your own.
In this regard, for the good of all, it would be more appropriate for the council, rather than exaggerated in sweet "bipartisan outpouring" of alleged honor of someone wounded (Corriere Romagna, November 25, 2009), had questioned why public money should again intervene on Perticari Villa (a test already approved!) on how you plan to finance the work for the safety of the School of Rio Salto, how, when and how will the football field alienated Via Galvani, how it was possible to create a "kiosk" on the sidewalk, on why the abuse building in the agricultural zone was "rewarded" by tripling the cube, how "techniques" to convert the industrial area of \u200b\u200bthe old winery in residential, without any additional standard, since it is already highly populated area, the ownership of the mysterious "Committee for the Fair" and its "overlap" with respect to the contract management already in place, the meaning of "Safety Commission", where the law gives the mayor full ownership of the powers in this respect on certain dates for the implementation of the "Seven Places" and the new Lieutenancy of the Carabinieri.
Perhaps we are talking about science fiction. When in doubt, we apologize to all those elected who have not grasped the "real" drama of our times.
