It’s time to explain OLIGARHICA to the fat ones, to those who call people with money “oligarchs”.
NO!
Oligarchy is a political regime where a few hands control all the powers: political, economic, judicial, etc.
According to the media, the son of one of the hands that controls all the powers in the country has taken a series of cars in cash and has opposed the police, who have taken him to the police station.
Did dad intervene? “dad’s friends” (the other hands)? or was dad’s name enough?
What does it matter? The oligarchy has turned savage, but cold, to one of the policemen. The boss, colleague, prosecutor, etc., who on paper constitute what is called the “rule of law” have treated the state functionary, the colleague in the blue uniform, as a criminal.
“They want to destroy my career! ” – Azbi Spahiu wrote to his son, before jumping from the 11th floor.
Did they grab him by the arms and throw him from a height?
If so, I personally will feel much more comfortable. Good! After all, we are dealing with a psychopath, a vengeful, criminal who kills a policeman because of his duty. He is neither the first nor the last. It has happened, happens and will happen in every place and at every time.
…but I am horrified when I reason that the OLIGARHY threw him simply with his breath. Not even with his breath, but with its shadow. Those who are formally state functionaries, order, justice, in real life are nothing but castrated mercenaries of the oligarchy. Azbi Spahiu’s dignity was killed, his faith was crushed, his personality was desecrated, his freedom, his bread were threatened and his life was called into question. Where are there wings more powerful than these to drag anyone and fly them, not from the 11th floor, but even beyond Albania
Of the 1 million Albanians who have left the country in the last decade, I believe that the majority are Azbi, people for whom the OLIGARHY has made life here impossible and they, rather than jumping from above, have chosen to jump as far as possible: from Germany to New Zealand and Alaska.
Azbi Spahiu (may God grant him a speedy recovery and a long life) is a martyr of the Albanian OLIGARHY. In his place will be YOU if you accidentally or unintentionally go out on the street, like the cars that that birbo crashed into and like Azbiu did at the wrong time, place and job, and above all, in the illusion that you are serving a legal state in a democratic system.
I speak today, while we are still in time, because maybe tomorrow:
“It’s our turn!” It’s our turn! It’s our turn!
