Unbelievable, but...
Those who follow me out of friendship, because they like the way I write or the way I say things, usually criticise me for always trying to include or force a "black pudding" in almost all my works to talk about or criticise the policies, manners or ways of acting of Sánchez; our illustrious president, who every day that passes has more and more people dissatisfied, disoriented or simply silent because they are vilely bought off to keep them loyal to a person and to a morass of ideas without order, coherence or concert with which he tends to play.
Well, to avoid this always being the case, on this occasion I promise that, in this humble work, I am only going to talk about him, about his wanderings, changes of criteria and the way in which he vilely governs us thanks to and in exchange for great concessions to those who hate Spain, its institutions and estates, and who are the most declared enemies of order and institutional concert.
Being an autocrat can be a form of government or governance that - for some and in certain latitudes and customs - can work without any problem. Certainly, there are countries that have been ruled for decades by despots, autocrats and tyrants, even in the form of dynasties established and anchored in them, as in Syria or North Korea, or in Russia and China, where their leaders are most likely on their way to achieving this. Places that keep their rulers subjugated by force, fear or deception because they know of no other form of government that could satisfy or satisfy them much more.
The centre and south of the American continent and much of Africa and even Asia are breeding grounds for these forms of government, where people have no choice but to accept it, because they know for a fact that dissent is not frowned upon or highly criticised, but is a way of passing on to a better life with a good chance.
In any case, the way to get there is always the same; to appear as the liberator of all ties, the achiever of maximum welfare and the one who officially fights for the rights of the most needy, for which there is no choice but to overthrow the established powers, to attack the banks, private enterprise and capital and to plunge the common people into a compact magma of people with little culture, idiotised and super dependent on subsidies, handouts and favours in exchange for simply being the unconditional follower of a visionary, however nefarious he and his policies may really be.
A visionary to whom everything is forgiven, who is understood, although without understanding him, and whose continuous changes of criteria and the great swerves in each and every one of his internal and external policies are never questioned, and who is worshipped as if he were a saint or a godsend without peer.
It is very sad to see that, thanks to a progressive invasion and destruction of the media through their purchase by means of subsidies and by having taken over with followers or substitutes the high and low institutions and the official state propaganda media, a people, once devoted to their homeland - with roots, ideas and foundations based on distributive and equitable justice - has become, in a few years, a mass of sectarians; people who are ill-disciplined and ready to give their all to defend what in their eyes, and in the eyes of anyone else, had evidently never been fair, just, right or fair.
Sánchez, preceded and lately well accompanied by the work of his master and preacher Zapatero, has managed to undermine and absorb each and every one of the institutions, even the highest of them; he has the Constitutional Court, the Public Prosecutor's Office or the State Attorney's Office and the courts subjugated to his criteria and free will or convenience and always ready to approve, without hesitation, everything he wants or needs to maintain his subsistence in power; sustains a foreign policy based on deceit, threat, coercion or contempt even bypassing the minimum legal requirements agreed or protocol; even makes pacts with the devil or, worse still, if it means a personal benefit for his subsistence, changes or abolishes laws as he pleases without taking into account the opinion of the most learned people in the field, who are the only ones who really know the precepts governing the criteria accepted, approved and maintained by the vast majority of countries and international institutions throughout history for decades or even longer.
If he does not personally like something or if it does not suit his intentions or survival criteria, he deletes or changes it, without taking into consideration the repercussions that such legal changes may have on the administration of justice, the attacks on the dignity of the offended or even the real damage that such unjust and/or hasty decisions may cause.
He never asks for forgiveness; he never gets confused; if there is a stumbling block, he changes his criteria or path to achieve his ends; he does not get discouraged because he knows that there are many and diverse paths to follow; and that, furthermore, he can count on the just and necessary support to bring to a successful conclusion each and every one of his outrages, outrages and injustices of all kinds, types, colours and intensity.
Lately, his accounts are not very clear or very loose, so that he has to walk on a wire all too often; although, for a tightrope walker like him, this is not a big problem. He has many principles, and if one or more of them are not to his counterpart's liking, he changes them and keeps on going. He pulls rabbits out of his hat or aces out of his sleeve on a daily basis without flinching or even a hint of discouragement, even though he now often has to show his excessively set jaw as a symbol of displeasure; but don't think he does this because he is really displeased, but because he knows that it pleases those who hold him by hook or by crook and that this impostured figure, in the face of the gallery of those, fills them with pride and satisfaction, as the classic would say a day or two ago.
A phoney, a salesman of cheap creepiness or of smoke bottled in little plastic bottles. Someone who is capable of defenestration of those who have raised him to power or kept him in power, if this is necessary to save his type or figure. But he is also, and very much to the contrary, a man who is excessively generous with his own staunch supporters, or merely a mere lackey, whom he raises to fame or to managerial positions for which they are not even remotely prepared, but which serve to fill his private saddlebags for a time which, in many cases, perhaps too many, seems excessive or disproportionate or barbaric to me.
It opens up a conflict where there is none, in order to immediately present a solution, which, moreover and to make matters worse, is usually provided by an administration other than the governmental one. But, once the moment of media impact has passed, he quickly forgets about them, but does not consign them to the dustbin or to oblivion; he keeps them in the chamber, in case it is necessary to resurrect them a second, third or even fourth time if necessary and they give him something to play with.
He takes full advantage of the means and capacities of the state, without thinking about the climate or environmental crisis, even if it is for private use and enjoyment, or for party events that have nothing to do with the justification for the use of these means, but only for private use.
In addition to giving few and very "special" press conferences, he does not usually listen to any kind of recommendations or impositions that come to him through internal or external channels, criticising or questioning his ideas or resolutions. These simply do not affect him, he is vaccinated against everything, he is immune and feels himself above good and evil. That is why he directs his mandates in a personalist manner and there is nothing and no one who can object to him, because, as Alfonso Guerra would say, whoever does so, does not appear in the photo, and will not appear.
A true autocrat of the first category, though false in reality, with great traits, nuances or tendencies to felony because, everything that, according to the position he holds, he should really defend and that he recently and solemnly promised to do so, the Homeland and its Constitution, are trifles that, like bumps in the road, are his own, like chinas in his path, are in the way of his shoes and he wants to leave them behind because he also knows that there are no things that offend or displease his real partners in the legislature more, of whom, let us not forget, he is only a poor hostage, because they are the ones who really govern, harass him and put the real squeeze on him.
