Why was the July protest halved?

The debate about the figures with Berisha's rallies is a waste of time, but looking at the sparse surfaces of the boulevard, it is clear that the protesters go to the two twin towers and then, to the bridge of Lana, there are people doing sehir. It is no more, no less, half of the July protest.

Beyond that, it is the most unenthusiastic, unmotivated and, above all, centrally directed protest to create a false image.

It all has only one reason, which is related to the name of Sali Berisha and Ilir Meta, both of whom together reduce the opposition more.

They reduce it after consolidating the division of the Democratic Party. Ilir Meta is there to replace those who reject Berisha. But those who reject Berisha, compared to those who believe Meta, are many times more. Ilir Meta cannot compensate them. On the contrary, it adds more.

They reduce it, since the protest takes place at the height of the opposition's division, while in July the rhetoric of unification was launched, with which Berisha sought to put them to sleep, to humiliate and rule them.

They reduce it because since July until now, Berisha has faced new international sanctions, such as that of Great Britain and the determined attitude of the USA and the EU to isolate him. Anyone who loves power understands that there is no future with it.

They reduce it above all, since their rhetoric about corruption, anti-communism, and oligarchs in this country reminds Albanians of two people, Sali Berisha and Ilir Meta, both communists, both oligarchs, both billionaires.

And today's protest proved everything. It proved that Berisha had called the protest to show the country to the USA, accusing him from the podium of the rally that he had declared him "non grata" unjustly. Then, like Putin yesterday, the outcry focused on Soros and the attack on the West.

And what was the icing on the cake, for the freedom of the press and the vision of the opposition, was the central direction of the protest. Those who accuse the government of ready-made tapes, even had today's protest ready-made, not allowing the media to film it, except for the drones that cannot stop them.

This is enough to understand why the protest lacked people, lacked spirit, lacked enthusiasm, and above all lacked money. A staged, paid and bused protest is a theater performance but not a protest. The protests cause the revolts of the people, not the revolting thieves.

And the main message of the protest was what Sali Berisha said. Without it, Albania will never have stability. It was the only honest thing said in the protest. It's the only promise he could make. But he's just an old man who can't lift his own panties, so he can't lower Albania's pants (he can lower Zen's wallet a bit).
