Six barren early parliamentary elections and an election campaign for the seventh time! The Philosophical-Sociological diagnosis is the dumbing down of the nation.

This commented on "Facebook" Georgi Fotev.

A clientelist party wins, but cannot form an independent government or a normal coalition. The problem is not a lack of agreeableness. There are impossible political compromises that would make politics completely meaningless. An emergency quasi-coalition was experimented with, which the shallow-minded media and commentators did not understand, and the opponents of reform blew it up when it became dangerous for them. The audience did not understand what happened.

***

No debate on the fundamental problems of the ongoing political crisis and the crisis of values. No serious debate in the public forum of political society on the nature of the crisis and the failed election campaigns one after the other. Shallow and banal ramblings in the major media about the waylessness of the nation. Is there no one to stop the madness and dumbing down of the nation. Damn question!

Deep reforms are needed to free the captive state. Credible national security is needed against the specter of bloodthirsty big brother. They are pouring fire and brimstone on the reformers. Reformers are openly or secretly hated in this country. The majority of the people do not know what they want. The majority of parliament, the national media and the majority of the population are being dumbed down. How does one philosophize with a hammer in hand (Nietzsche)? It hurts my heart to say it.

PROTECTION OF DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH. They have been stolen from us! Are you blind and deaf? Are you out of your mind? More than 30 parties and coalitions will participate in the elections. They are more than the previous elections. Congestion of the pre-election terrain by political half-idiots, tricksters, mentargies is increasing. To earn one percent, to harm themselves for subsidies from government money. Some of them are in the parliament. Political vandals. This is not a concern for democracy. A desperate misunderstanding of the ESSENCE of modern democracy, the meaning of the constitution. Legislators' stupidity.

No one thought of analyzing the activities and results of the Central Election Commission from the previous elections. You have a staggering number of violations according to the election papers. They reported it. A grave silence followed. Helpless commission. She's tangled up again. Grief. Stupid!

The official prime minister beats his chest for the previous “fair elections”. He's talking nonsense. God have mercy! He doesn't know what he's talking about. He does not know or pretends to be beaten with a wet rag that there is convincing evidence of a huge number of votes bought and installed. Criminal blindness and complicity by omission. The media and the public heard us, saw us. Will it be the same again for the seventh time? Where's the hammer? The understanding should come immediately. No time.

***

Only the national media can turn things around in this election campaign. To exclude shallow-minded and venal commentators, pessimistic analysts and agitators from their studios. Media debates between the main leaders! What is this drooling that some refused?!

Presenters to prepare for each broadcast. In the focus of attention should be the actual, important, acute, painful issues of society. No speculation with election polls. No manipulation of public opinion. It's so disgusting. Enough with the banal questions of who will ally with whom. The time will come for that. Daily and hourly mobilization of participation in the elections. If your editors don't know how it's done, ask those who do.

***

The big media bear heavy responsibility for the sorry state of the national political society. They are responsible for dumbing down the nation. Journalists are called upon in these elections to revolutionize public attitudes. Yes, a revolution! Active society now. It takes courage. Fear is the greatest vice.

The mystery of national dumbing down is not innate. If it is by birth there is no salvation, as Kant would say. It is an artifact. It is produced in society. I pointed out how. In this election campaign, we are all called to vote and wash the shame from the forehead of our beloved Fatherland.
