Text of the page (random words):
the military played a fundamental role in knocking down the status quo forces without it popular support is easily mocked the burmese monks did not have a military strategy they now rot in jail back in 1928 venezuela s students didn t have one either so they spent the next eight years in la rotunda this is how it goes folks it sucks but it s how it goes by juan cristobal december 4 2009 mental health break for the weekend juan cristóbal says it s easy to forget but before we were oligarchs squalid ones and betrayers of the homeland we were simply his invisible friends i can t think of a better tonic to hugo chávez s vulgarity than the warm lessons of arturo uslar pietri see you all monday by juan cristobal rules for subversives quico says opposition has become an obsolete concept in venezuelan politics opposition is what you do to governments capable of being opposed those that see the practice of periodically alternating in power with their critics as normal chavismo has denormalized alternation crafting a state system where the practice would imperil regime stability chavismo can t be opposed in the normal sense of the word because it doesn t conceive of itself as a temporary occupant of executive branch instead it claims ownership of the state as a whole what can you do if you dissent from a government that is not opposable in the normal democratic sense a government that has repeatedly stressed that it does not conceive of alternation in power as a normal feature of the system and explicitly vows never to allow it to happen there s only one thing you can do if you don t wish to submit to a government like that subvert it i think chávez himself grasped this long before those of us who disagree with him did maybe his obsession with plots and conspiracies all around him speak not so much of paranoïa as of a dirty conscience a kind of if they knew what i know they d be trying to subvert me me i never set out to become a subversive never chose that doesn t really fit my personality in any way but like everybody else who opposes the vision of state power chavismo represents i have now been made effectively into a subversive there is a long deeply unsettling set of consequences that flow out of this realization a set of consequences venezuela s anti chavista establishment really hasn t quite processed yet it s hard to see our movement having any success until we come to grips with our new condition a condition that is no less ours because we never chose it subversion is the game the entire anti chavista country is now engaged in whether consciously or unconsciously to dissent from the hyperleader is to subvert the state system he has crafted a system based on mindless obedience complicit sycophancy and an essentially limitless willingness to lie to the public for political benefit it s a system you won t find described in any official document certainly not in the 1999 constitution it is the state of the state in fact not in law and article 333 of that same document tells you all you need to know about your duties in such an eventuality subversion is not a road we ve chosen it s a road that s been chosen for us the only question now is whether we can subvert the chavista state creatively effectively and constructively in a way that helps us lay out the basis for something better down the road i think subversion of the current regime will need to take place along many axes some overt some covert obviously as bloggers we can t do much about the latter other than hope for their success but we can in our small way contribute to the former because subverting the chavista state is also about subverting the habits of mind that sustain it the endless willingness to subjugate reality to political convenience the mindless cult of personality that raises a single man s will above the law it means challenging the cognitive cornerstone of the entire chavista system the out and out refusal to submit the leader s dictates to critical scrutiny to hold them up against the measuring bar of reason call it cognitive subversion that s the business this blog is in time we faced up to it by quico december 3 2009 chavez throws hissy fit your savings lose 15 of their value quico says reuters is reporting that the parallel bolivar plunged as low as bs 6 2 to the dollar today in response to chávez s bank nationalization histrionics funny to think how just a few weeks ago nelson merentes was pledging the voldemort rate would climb to bs 3 45 by the beginning of december i e now you almost have to pity the guy the bureaucratic equivalent of a hired shopkeeper in a china shop owned by a wildebeest by quico intervention juan cristóbal says a reader in caracas told us yesterday that he was disappointed in caracas chronicles he usually came to cc to find information and solace but lately there s been no solace he got that right quico and i have always tried to find the proverbial silver lining in current events but lately that s been hard to find i blame it on el niño so bloggerfam this is a cry for help we demand an intervention is there any hope and if so where do you find it cause the light at the end of the tunnel seems to have flickered out with the latest blackout i think of my friend rafa who years ago told me something that has stuck in my mind este país es una mierda pero como se goza maybe he s right i should give him a call ps quico read the previous version of this post and hated it he asked me for a re write demanding i make it short and funny short i can do but it s hard to make a post about how depressing everything is funny by juan cristobal older posts home subscribe to posts atom this blog has moved check us out on caracaschronicles com first
