“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate. He doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political
events. He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the
fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all
depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid
that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics. The
imbecile doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the
prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad
politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational
companies.”
I hate that this used to be me. I was proud not to be involved in politics because the genre gave me a headache. After a while, however, I've come to realize that politics and the language of it is a necessary evil. The world changes as a result of politics, so I have no choice but to learn about it. Good post
