(Dedicado a quienes aspiran a dignidades de alta responsabilidad, como recordatorio de no quebrantar la fe de la ciudadanía, único juez con la potestad de investir y deponer a sus representantes)
We, the People
(Dedicated to those who aspire to high-responsibility offices, as a reminder not to breach the faith of the citizenry, the sole judge with the power to invest and depose their representatives).
Greetings to all.
Individual behavior begins within a framework of horizontal cooperation, where the biological need to fit in and the fear of social rejection compel the human being to suppress their selfish instincts. However, the psychology of the individual undergoes a radical transformation when granted power and control over their environment. The human being fails because their mind is not designed for a lack of boundaries: upon receiving responsibilities, constant adulation and isolation cloud their judgment, activating an arrogance that dissolves empathy. The individual—especially political leaders—falls captive to a profound moral breakdown by utilizing self-justification; they convince themselves that their effort deserves extraordinary rewards and that common norms no longer apply to them, allowing greed to completely displace ethics.
The moral breakdown of the individual worsens before the asymmetry of circumstances, where the weakness of human nature faces dazzling offers that dominate them and awaken their greed or external pressures that exploit their vulnerability. No being falls alone into this decline; the process requires an environment that, through negligence or convenience, chooses to remain silent and normalize abuse under the table. Upon verifying that their faults go unpunished thanks to the shielding of their position, the individual shatters their mask of righteousness to reveal themselves as they truly are, surrendering to their lowest passions. This ecosystem corrupts the social fabric, causing a collective apathy where the general citizen surrenders to deception, justifying the lack of principles in order to survive and ensuring the transmission of this moral degradation to future generations.
Breaking the Silence
The evaluation of leadership at the ballot box and the division of authority is the analysis of this history, which intends to demonstrate the moral weakness of certain individuals within the universal and inevitable condition of the human being when ethical and legal limits are removed. Therefore, the maturity of a society consists in the masses periodically subjecting the leader's investiture to a vote, thus maintaining an open democratic tool to continue trusting them or to remove them from their position if their conduct is not the most appropriate. THE PEOPLE ARE THE SOVEREIGN. To prevent a single will from deciding the destiny of everyone, the fundamental strategy is to atomize authority, dividing the pie into as many pieces as possible through strict systems of checks and balances and independent committees that mutually block each other if anyone attempts to overstep. Power must be understood exclusively as a technical, rotational, and delegated task with an expiration date; only when authority is so diluted and subject to the periodic judgment of the ballot box is the community immunized against tyranny and manipulation, protecting society from its own fragility and from the henchmen of misconduct.
