I went to my revolution today

Post by Dr_Liszt »

Here's an article from the BBC if you don't want to read the summary of all the articles I've read.
http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-32882520

My President decided to piss off the Americans from day 1 saying he wanted to legalize drugs. So the U.S was like "hahaha...STFU!" But it created some tensions between the governments. That proposal also was not well received and many people, including myself rejected it. And I remember I made a thread about it and you people were like "But Liszt, look at all the studies, legalizing good." And I was like "hahaha... STFU! Monopolies are Satan."

So then around last year the U.S had a problem with child immigrants from Guatemala and decided to have a conference with our leaders asking what the fuck is going on, why so many children want to leave the shithole called Central America?? And the correct answer to that was "Because of you! You motherfuckers! Stop taking our shit!" But I don't think anyone said that. So Biden said "All opportunities are concentrated in one little group, maybe you shoul fix that. Yeah.. fix that." [none] So yeah corrupt first world politician telling corrupt third world politicians to start investing in people, didn't sound like a viable solution. Something had to be done.

So then somehow the DEA got hold of Marjorie Chacon and took her to prision. This woman was a drug lord from a cartel that ran in all of South America and she was referred as the Queen of the South, she had ties with our president and vicepresident. The thing is she declared herself guilty, the DEA didn't say how many years of jail time she will have. So this meant, she gave away people and shit will go down.

Weeks after that, a lot of corruption lines within the government started to fall. The U.S practically asked for the vicepresident's head and to weaken the whole network around the President. They found drugs inside the military, money theft and tax evasion from very important companies (Colgate included) at Customs and the SAT (tax collection), corrupt million bucks contracts at the National Health Insurace. So in the end... all of this has created a lot of protests against the government. And Honduras corruption lines are starting to fall and they're protesting too. Yay!

So this is what it looked like when I arrived:

It's pacific marches against the government, that place was the finish line. They are still very tame and unlike the riots on the U.S these have revolutionary potential.

But not only that, people have noticed the voting system has a pattern, like for example in the U.S you have two periods of republicans followed by two periods of democrats. (Because the system is not rigged at all [none] and voting totally is important and counts! [none]) If you follow that pattern it would mean that it's the "republicans' turn" to run the country. So a similar situation happening, that there's a pattern, except people being aware of that bullshit and not wanting to play that game anymore, started a "it's not your turn" movement and are protesting against the prime candidate to destroy the pattern.

They are doing that by invading his political meetings and even hacking his webpages. These movements have lowered the guy's support from having 32% to 28% in just a month. [laugh] The problem is that there iare no good candidates or parties to take his place so no one wants to vote. So people are pushing a reform that would practically destroy all political parties. This is what this march was about and it's why I went.

So people are now harassing congressmen, invading political meetings and there have been several marches. This is how people reacted towards a congressman who was going to take over the vicepresident's place. Lacking support, the president was "not pressured by the U.S" to appoint another dude which was not part of his original team.

So who knows what will happen. The fact that people have realized voting is bullshit has given me hope changes could be made.

Actually destroying all political parties is a good idea. What do you know about revolution anyway?

Ah cool, just read it. One of the criticisms I received was that it was too long and boring. I can understand that, having read the damn thing about ten times myself, but just wanted another opinion. It'll probably get cut shorter anyway [yes]
