Radicality as the only hope of a society in the last spirit

Andi Mustafaj

Why? A word as a sentence, a sound as a melody, a moment as an infinity. The inability to answer this question in words and then in deeds is the starting point and arrival of the most existential problems in our society.

Why are we in this situation? Why are we powerless in the face of the criminal Renaissance regime? Why can not we raise hope in the hearts of men? Why are we spectators of our misfortune?

For 9 years now, the eyes of Albanians have seen before them a great variety of scandals, abuses, and government crimes. Depressed, tired they are accustomed to the shameful performances of an ordinary autocrat. While a thousand governments should have been overthrown, we are always sliding more and more, sometimes slowly and sometimes quickly, towards the abyss that awaits us.

In the face of this sad reality, a factual conclusion must be made: so far the Democratic Party has not managed to find the right equation to overthrow the autocratic regime of Edi Rama. In this way, she has lost one of her encounters with history.

Of course, the reasons for this failure are various, but one of them, in particular, bothers me: abandonment, leaving in the midst of major civic causes. This practice was started by Lulzim Basha and little by little it turned into a mentality, it spread like a terrible virus, incomprehensible, contaminating all the tissues of our party but also beyond, those of the Albanian society.

On the first day of the great causes, we were there, on the second day we had work, on the third day we were drinking coffee, and on the last day, when the heavy hand of the Renaissance was blindly dropped on our fellow citizens, we were nowhere. ..

What does this mean for us? What about the Democratic Party? What about the country?

In December 1990, Azemi Hajdari told my father: "I entered this road to die, not to leave it in the middle". What a piercing mirror of our mediocrity, the unstoppable deafening bell in the ears of a humble generation before its venerable ancestors.

What are we willing to sacrifice to protect our values? If we who claim to represent the Democratic Party, in any of its links, do not answer this question with the words "everything", then we are nothing more than deceivers who lie to ourselves and the people for years, claiming that we are fighting an autocratic regime. while in fact, we are fighting windmills.

We must be ready to lose everything because our fellow citizens are losing more and more everything, powerless they are disintegrating within the imaginary propagandistic world of the Renaissance. The spiral of failure into which we have fallen is not a fatality, we are not doomed to fail. For this, the abandonment mentality must be answered by a young person, that of radicalism.

Politically and philosophically, radicalism is manifested through sharp thoughts and actions which aim at radical change in society. This is achieved through exemplary behavior and a willingness to go all the way to the battles launched. In this way, small victories become avalanches of a party with a new spirit.

It does not matter how young or old you are, it does not matter if you are a man or a woman, and to some extent, it does not matter what you have done before: the only thing that matters is knowing what you are ready to do. do, what are you ready to lose by fighting the regime.

The Democratic Party must compile the List of Great Civic Causes and keep it as a flag, as a permanent testimony of the new mentality that must follow the Re-establishment.

The persons engaged in the defense of these causes should have no connection, not even the slightest, with the Renaissance or its people. Above all, they should not rest until the cause is won.

We can not accept that people end up in jail for the battles left in the middle, we can not accept that our representatives get building permits from Renaissance criminals. The radical battle must be waged in all areas where the Renaissance is located.

At their level, we have had many democratic resistance fighters who have realized this, whether at the Theater, at Astiri, etc. Their activity should be taken as an example and institutionalized.

Words and actions must be in full coherence so that Albanian citizens, disappointed or not by the Democratic Party can see and feel the fundamental differences between us and the Socialist Party.

The responsibility is great, the challenge is great, it is at the level of evil we have to fight, but I have a deep hope that by learning from the mistakes of the past and changing the mentality that has ruled us, the Democratic Party is able to overthrow again a criminal regime.
