The daily chronicle makes it not easy to find some differences and peculiarities in what could be the essence of the campaigns of the two main political forces in the country. What is clear so far is that Rilindja, the socialists, are seeking a fourth mandate simply for Rama's personal project, for an idea that comes from the mental distortion from staying in power for a long time, which has to do with his greatness.
Edi Rama only wants to feed his ego, and that is where all the fears he has of losing power come in, as well as all the hopes for more privileges and benefits.
If you look at his priorities, they are related to concessions, high-rise buildings, PPPs, and the distribution of every part of Albania. Where he undoubtedly manages financial interests.
All this started with a huge fabrication to create his myth, where many elisa have been misused, sometimes calling him an international brand, sometimes Skanderbeg, Zeus, sometimes Odysseus. When, in fact, the real one is the "babloku" of the Bild wiretaps.
And to further grow and nourish this myth, where the leader's extraordinary dimensions are often spoken of, the superman now also needs objects, buildings, and facades where his whim can be reflected.
This is all that remains of the politics and ideology of the ruling caste after 3 terms. The human being, the citizen, the farmer, the pensioner, the professional, the young person, the student, the family member, does not exist.
To keep this false cult charged, he has been investing himself lately. The stories of others about him, they add water. They are no longer enough and do not convince the Renaissance women who weave dithyrambs.
So he came out and talked about himself for an hour a few days ago. A story that no one asked for, nor does anyone need. An attempt to show that since he is heterosexual, unlike the insults and stigmatizations he has been subjected to, he is also honest. Come on, come on.
He has understood that half-man and half-god is only for his ministers, and that the people think something completely different.
Therefore, a final investment is needed. And he is asking for another mandate for this. Look at how he acted with pensioners. Instead of increasing what they are entitled to receive, he gives them a bonus from his own hand. To make him look like the "Savior".
While spending 5 billion lek from citizens' taxes on a personal garden for the prime minister, so that he looks like a giant when he gives interviews, from another world.
Great distortions of an autocrat who needs more power, privileges, grandeur and worship. When in reality he should be accountable to the law for all his criminal affairs and connections.
This personal toy of Rama, this kaleidoscope where he refracts his images, this country that he seeks to transform into a mere surface for his appearance, a Narcissus who does not leave his chair, is not Albania. There are other problems, many in fact.
And it is very positive that the Opposition has a completely different course. It is all focused on the man. On his daily life, on the effort that almost half of the population makes to make ends meet, to pay the bills and to meet basic needs.
Misery is one of the reasons why the autocrat thrives in his perverse reality. Getting out of this state would empower the citizen, and in front of a reborn citizen there is no place for oppressors and rulers.
The emergency package proposed by the DP is a combination of several measures that would truly eradicate poverty.
They seem like courageous interventions, but obviously if they have a financial bill, it's all worth it.
The transition from a state where the month barely ends for a part of the population is the liberation from a violent captivity. Only after having secured this threshold will someone begin to think, aspire, demand more, raise their voice, protest, not allow bad governance, and thus contribute to society and the country.
The return of such a large segment of our society, from oppressed and vulnerable to vital parts, is undoubtedly the greatest regeneration of this stunted social body in 3 terms.
The Opposition's focus on the citizen, on his size, on his skin seems both credible and true. Even before, in its history, the DP has shown that the greatest acts undertaken have been done for the citizen.
Therefore, I see it as a positive development and I encourage this course.
Perhaps with the approach of May 11, Edi Rama will also try to leave his delusion of personal greatness for a moment, under the advice of electoral consultants, and perhaps return to the people. But it will not work. It will seem artificial.
These two worlds that are facing each other today make it easy for the 3.7 million Albanians with the right to vote to choose.
A vote for the increase in Edi Rama's personal power, for the glorification of his grandeur with towers of dozens of floors and millions of euros, with his behavior as a global leader and with grotesque gestures like alla-meloni. Or a vote for your troubles?!
