National Action and the Dark Marketing in Puebla
Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero
Various electoral and political analyzes offer explanations for the results of the past June 2; However, after several months of partisan competition and pragmatism of the factions, discredit and bad intentions appear as common elements in such exercises. Lamentable has been the partisan role of some academics and election analysts to misinterpret the day in which Luis Miguel Barbosa was the winner. Criticism and rational study is over, anger, classism and racial intolerance remain.
The hypothesis posited by the urban-rural dichotomy to point out that the green-peasant vote won Barbosa, ends by concluding: "only the poor, assholes and marijuana vote for Morena." The anachronism of such ideas demonstrates the loss that resentment provokes.
The effect of hate campaigns has been demonstrated throughout human history. Two examples are convincing because of the temporal proximity and the evidence: anti-Semitism and anti-communism. Most of the twentieth century was occupied by these phenomena and the European and then global hell, are proof that nobody learns.
In Mexico during 2006 we had one of the most radical hate campaigns that can be remembered. For Roger Bartra, the country experienced a social conflict that was consigned as a "fracture", an element that may imply a fragmentation or fissure of the social fabric and that, from his perspective, can place the country in a civil war. The struggle between political tendencies became radicalized since López Obrador was targeted as a presidential candidate and ended with a spurious Federal Executive who had to govern sitting on the bayonets and mounted the blood railway that could not be stopped.
When the terrible twentieth century is debated and the causes that started the European civil war that later became global are sought, the hate promoted by the right and, particularly, Catholic Christianity appears. The historiography has built a more or less general explanation, the Holy See promoted fascism to recover the hegemony lost by the loss of the pontifical territories and built the myth of the Communist Masonic Judeo conspiracy. Hell broke out and the twentieth century is the main shame of modernity and European civilization. Incredible as it may seem, that was the goal.
Faced with this, the right always exonerates itself in two ways: denying the facts and manifesting a revisionism; in this way, he argues the non-existence of the Holocaust and justifies the violence unleashed as a reaction to the "Red Terror" for all the utopian and radical ideas he promoted. Hate campaigns generate an alienation that can turn into an uncontrollable violence where the goal is to attack and cause the greatest possible damage.
The infamous power of the dark campaigns is more than proven. The collaboration of the German people with Adolf Hitler, as well as other Catholic nations in Europe, has been studied from the standpoints of mass psychology and reflects that, under certain circumstances, the Lucifer Syndrome can awaken in any age and person.
The hate campaigns, dark marketing, that are beginning to be the feature of National Action, frame this party in the configuration of the European extreme right, particularly anti-Russian, anti-immigrant, aporophobic, anti-feminist and neo-Nazi.
The failure of political representation is the responsibility of all parties. Even from the PAN. What plays Enrique Cárdenas who is first in MORENA, then he is a citizen and, despite being the most successful critic of the Morenovallismo, must assume his inheritance in the PAN brand? If the PAN electorate were the conservative middle classes, as they say, the State would not be one of the poorest in the republic. Puebla is not just the commercial area of Angelópolis or the "Barcelona" of Cholula.
Hate campaigns must be conjured and it is necessary to boost the responsibility of politicians. For this type of campaign, do you spend so much money? With these meager electoral results, do you have to continue funding political parties? Do you have to pay with public resources for rancor campaigns that seek confrontation among Mexicans?
It is a time of peace and work in Puebla; They are more productive than hatred and rancor. Mexico faces a peculiar situation now, the supremacist Trump has put a serious crossroads, hopefully the right does not react like the polkos of the 19th century.
