Just that, consider my Posts coming from Empathy not from Hate.
I do not authorize psychological nor psychiatric formulations, interpretations nor diagnosis, etc. I am not a lawyer, and this no legal advice nor advice of any kind.
I worry this comment won´t be well received from a lot of US persons, but hear me out, I truly sympathize with your situation, in great part, a significant part is because I am in a similar situation.
In the year 2000 when our President Vicente Fox Quezada was elected I could not vote because I lived abroad while pretending to do a PhD in Pharmaceutical Chemistry in the University of California in San Francisco.
I could not vote because my then Government did not allow such a thing: voting from abroad.
But I was appalled, Vicente was the lamest most stupid Presidente we as Mexicans had. There is no question to my mind.
Not only that, he and his party had no way to fill the Cabinet Positions needed to have a passing Federal Government. He tried making a campaign like a business owner attempting to recrute Public Officials of High Caliber as if looking to fill fast food services vacant Jobs.
It did not work.
The next President Enrique Calderón Hinojosa had the same problem: his friends and his party had no personnel of the Quality and Experience needed to be at least, Secretaries of the main Agencies of the Mexican Government.
Some like Genaro García Luna and some energy related appointee were Crooks, really bad ones.
García Luna was rumored to have been involved directly or indirectly with the waves of Kidnappings against famous people back in the 2000s. He was not alone, there were rumors some former Mossad agent did ran a protection racket against the Hebrew community in México City.
So both, Fox and Calderón filled their posts with some incompetent folks, some Crooks and some although competent vastly inexperienced.
I am not minimizing their accomplishments, just narrating the parallels with your and my current situation as I see them.
They did that because their Party, the National Action Party, Partido Acción Nacional (PAN) never won more than a few seats in Congress and maybe a few State Governments.
They were new comers to the Federal Government.
Unlike the before ruling Party they had no Experienced Politicians doubling as Public Officials, precisely because they never Governed anything like the Ruling Party did.
That was understandable, México´s brief transition into Democracy was expected to have such issue if the PAN did not choose to use former Public Officials working, having connections even allegiances with the former Ruling Party.
Their choice, but in part explains why sometimes there were associations between some Folks from the PAN and the PRI, the Institutional Revolutionary Party, Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), the former ruling party since the Mexican Revolution, more or less: It was a necessity to use the knowledge, experience, etc., of former public officials associated with the former ruling party so that the Federal Government ran as efficiently as possible in a shorter time frame as possible.
Some folks criticized such informal alliance by calling it the PRIAN, and this is where it might be of interest to US persons, because I think it does have uncanny parallels between our current situations.
We lost our Democracy, my paisani elected a very bad hombre: Andrés Manuel López Obrador who hated us, the rest of the Mexicans.
He hated us because he was stifled in his aspirations of winning the Mexican Presidency he lost the first time and the populace did not support his whining when he called himself the Legitimate President of México.
Despite he did not won and his cry baby talk about fraud was never proven.
Before that he instigated not civil disobedience, but rebellion against the State by promoting in some communities in his home state for people to steal Electricity from the State Company. His law breaking behavior is well known: “Don´t tell me the law is the law”, “No me digan que la Ley es la Ley”.
So he bottled that anger, focused on his populist rhetoric and behavior, peppered it with some Social do goodies like Universal retirement pension, pensions for persons with disabilities, expanding University education and the like.
Only for in his last year to show the hate he had for us: he started his machinations to demolish, destroy our Judicial System that was decades in the making.
Started by the best President we had for too many decades: Don Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de León.
Whom Andrés hated, by the way, ignorant of his towering accomplishments not only in Judicial reform, but on Education, Retirement Pension Reform, managing the Bank Crisis, promoting Democracy, neutering the unholy practices of the Ruling Party by refusing to be the President former PRI presidents were: Dictatorial.
Among other accomplishments well documented.
So that hate of Andrés was continued by his acolytes, his psychophants now running the Federal Government and crucially Congress.
They do so because they are crooks and they, I think, foresee this is their last chance to make a fortune from their very poorly reasoned choice to continue the Communist Revolution by Political Means.
Many of the now top Politicians from the now Ruling Party, MORENA, National Movement of Regeneration, Movimiento de Regeneración Nacional were disillusioned commies, some, I´ve read, with links with terrorists or guerrilla associations when they were younger. Not only former commie associations.
I know your current Government overlords are probably not commies, but from what I´ve read, they probably hate the rest of the US populace, for their own, maybe private reasons.
I ask you to think about it, I had about my own Overlords in my Government.
Andrés Manuel was not alone, the hate is palpable and visible in the decisions of many MORENA politicians doubling as Public Officials: their decisions can´t be explained to my thinking but by two things: they really want to make a Fortune they don´t deserve and they hate the rest of us.
No ideology involved to my thinking: those are slogans they really don´t believe in, I think.
Andrés Manuel was not our only hater, we as Mexicans have a lot of them running the Federal, and most of State Governments. And having hateful control not only of the Federal Congress, but of most State Congresses.
Such hate is not targeted just against the labeled as Conservatives, it is spread against all us Mexicans. Being gay, trans, crazy proud or not, etc., will make no difference.
And my paisani voted for them like most voters do, without further qualifications because I do love my paisani, regardless of their voting decisions.
And the easiness with which this MORENA cavergovernors are destroying my country is not responsibility alone of Andrés and his followers, it is also the responsibility of all Mexican Political Parties for not strengthening our Democracy, not putting enough checks and balances since the year 2000.
And they did it because they saw no political interest in doing so, and no economic incentive to do so as individuals, for them that is.
With the hope of at some point cashing out, like when they tried to make Mexican Oil Private during the ruling of Enrique Peña Nieto from 2012 to 2018.
Enrique belonged to the most raunchiest of political castes from the PRI.
And they did so, I´ve read, illegally, that is part of the Mexican Odebretch scandal, for example.
And there was talk, books even, arguing he won the Presidency with money from the Mainstream Media, among others. To whom, in turn, he was compromised to help. Despite no private money should be used in Political Campaigns in México.
So the responsibility of my current situation, same as for many, if not all of my paisani, does not fall on the MORENA crooks and my paisani alone but on all Mexican Politicians from all Political Parties, from the year 2000 until today: they did not give a fuck about my Country either.
And they still don´t, they just want to keep earning money as politicians. As most politicians do, left, right, center, up, down, whatever.
They are leeches too.
And they are too abundant to find them jobs in Public Office because being a Politician was a Dream Job for those who could not earn money doing anything else, had low moral fiber and had the opportunity to become one.
Still is like that, except now there must be lots of unemployed former politicians as politicians, and there will be more when the newer generations filling MORENA now are kicked out by even more subservient acolytes and sychophants…
That is why I admire Ernesto Zedillo, he did really good for most of us Mexicans. And he was an atypical Politician, as his predecesor Carlos Salinas de Gortari was: they were intellectuals, not technocrats. They had PhDs in economics. Ernesto was an Economics Profesor at the National Polytechnic Institute.
My esteemed Don José López Portillo was also an intellectual, also a College Profesor, who started the political opening process in the late 70s, in great part because he was the only Presidential Candidate in the Ballot…
But, hey!, mistakes were made!. And he was surrounded by some crooks…
And they, the MORENA crooks, probably suspect it is their last time to leech because one can suspect the US government can pull another Violeta Barrios de Chamorro stunt, now against my Country.
And I speculate the US Government already tried it twice: one with the Presidential Candidacy of Manuel de Jesús Clouthier del Rincón, from the PAN in 1988, and with Vicente Fox Quezada in 2000, through his Friends of Fox, “Amigos de Fox”, money grabbing efforts.
The first one ended in failure among allegations of fraud by the ruling Party, the PRI, but I suspect it was the other way around: foreign intervention.
The second one succeeded but gave us the worst president we ever had until Andrés Manuel. And there is some evidence for this second attempt, but I have read none for the first one, it´s my hunch guess at best.
My fear is the third one, if carried out, might give us unsavory characters too well known from other countries, so I don´t have to point at them.
The trend is quite obvious, and it does not look good for my Country either…
What have I been doing to stop any of what happened in my Country since I became a Citizen?.
Not much, read, study, work, having lots of sex and romance, committing in principle sex related legal offenses such as Outraging Gross indecency with a female, Lewdness, Lechery, helping people near to me, showing respect and love to them, falling in love, trying to get us pregnant, getting us pregnant without wanting to, enjoying the sexual joy of women.
Trying to survive the violence of my family, of some communities I´ve lived in, from believers in and exploiters of psychiatric things, of some of my so called friends, the far too common antisocials, etc.
Asking for help with my limitations and safety considerations anywhere I can.
Trying to make my Government to do Justice for me, and fix the culture of illegality of medical practice in México as I saw it.
Recently writing not entirely well received comments and opinion pieces, poorly and hastily written I admit.
I see and saw for my self no way to contribute otherwise, I am an intellectual, not an activist, not a politician, certainly no revolutionary, and I hate violence, even verbal, specially against minors, females, vulnerable people, and old folks and folketes.
And I love my Country, I appreciated my former Governments somewhat aware of the atrocities committed by them against us, Mexicans, just by being stacked next to the US, and having to do their biding fighting commies and terrorists, not just in México but abroad, as the example of my Esteemed Role Model Fernando Gutiérrez Barrios shows, at least in his attempts to stop them from infiltrating and using the sons and daughters of the Intelligentsia back then.
But Journalists really did not help enough. They haven´t helped me for instance.
My only sort of Activism is against Mental stuff, Clinical Psychology and Psychiatry and the buffoonery of confusing Humanities with Sciences. And all of it implies…
That´s all.
Thanks.
