Animals

Pablo Iglesias was asked the other day in the Ser if there was to sign a pact of civility to eliminate the anger between our political class, prone to the outcast. He said yes, that he is for the job, but that citizens should not be taken as morons. He added that people have much to worry about before the lack of courtesy in the institutional arena.

The helmsman of Podemos is right. Arriving at the end of the month, finding a decent job or paying the rent are peremptory concerns . The point is that, without minimizing the forms, it becomes difficult to enable the political climate necessary to forge consensus. Rereading the books of Pepe Esteban and Luis Carandell, one proves that the insult is not something new among the country's elite. It comes from yesteryear. And, apart from the grace at the time of uttering reproach, we can agree that during the last three years we have hit bottom. The successors of those who made the Transition have placed the level of dictatorship on an underground level, paraphrasing Marsé on behalf of the Planet.

It is no accident that this degradation coincides with the blockade and misgovernment. Mutual contempt between Sánchez and Rajoy . The inventives wielded by deputies-wild boars. The various numbers from the seat. The porfía in converting the Congress into any social gathering. The cascade of insults from Casado to Sánchez: "squatter, traitor, felon, illegitimate, incompetent, mediocre, ridiculous, irresponsible, incapable, egotistical, disloyal, compulsive liar, chauvinist of power." Spit on a minister in parliamentary headquarters. The zafiedad of the extreme right . Rivera's mockery, of little democratic mood , calling the acting president and his potential allies "band." All of this debuts politics, infects journalists - the more sectarian, the more we measure - and moves the tension to the street. The last to join this mason has been Ignacio Aguado , who has not hesitated to pull machismo to denigrate two former ministers. Is it necessary to express ideological discrepancies with personal disqualifications and, in addition, to do so by referring to gender?

"Everything Spanish is excessive," noted Max Aub , who has just turned half a century since his return from exile. The volume of noise, rudeness, narcissism and arrogance is already unbearable. In one of his brilliant columns, Márquez Reviriego wrote: "We knew from Aristotle - the teacher of Alexander the Great - that man was a political animal. Now, by the teacher of Philip the Great, who is Alfonso Guerra, we know that political men they are animals ". Let's get worse, dear Victor.
