"I'm not like you! You are the author of my troubles," the

Protester Erlis Sina , who was among several citizens who stayed all night in front of the Prime Minister's Office, responded to the public message sent to him by Prime Minister Edi Rama, while also publishing a photo of himself.

In a lengthy reaction on social media, he addresses the prime minister, saying, "Don't tell me you see yourself in my photo" because they are not the same and he does not have the same power and responsibility as the prime minister.

"I am not you. I am not the one who has held power for years. I am not the one who signs decisions that change people's lives. I am not the one who controls the institutions, budgets and destinies of this country. You are. So don't you dare tell me that my troubles are like your troubles. You are not the victim of my troubles. You are their author," he writes.

Sina accuses the government of encouraging youth emigration, social injustice, and a lack of prospects in the country. He argues that civic discontent stems not from political manipulation or the influence of social media, but from the daily difficulties that citizens face.

In the end, the citizen tells him that his photo on the prime minister's profile makes him dirty, adding that he cannot use it to "wash away" his responsibilities.

"My picture on your wall makes me dirty. Don't use it to wash away your responsibilities. Don't use it to hide your failures. Don't use it to build your story as a savior. I am not you. And if I am in the square, I am not there because someone deceived me. I am there because I know very well who brought me here," he adds.

Erlis Sina's full reaction:

Forced response to Edi Rama!
I AM NOT YOU!
Don't tell me that you see yourself in my photo.
I am not you.
I am not the one who has held power for years.
I am not the one who signs decisions that change people's lives.
I am not the one who controls the institutions, budgets and destinies of this country.
You are.
So don't you dare tell me that my troubles are like yours.
You are not the victim of my troubles.
You are their author.
You are the author of the emigration of thousands of young people who no longer saw a future in Albania.
You are the author of the injustices that force people to leave their country.
You are the author of the arrogance of a government that no longer listens to anyone but itself.
When you say that you are afraid of those who can harm Albania, forget one thing:
There is no abyss deeper than the theft of votes.
There is no abyss deeper than the robbery of property.
There is no abyss deeper than the destruction of dignity.
There is no deeper abyss than the theft of the future of an entire generation.
Thousands of people do not fill the squares because the algorithm manipulates them.
They do not protest because influencers ask them to.
They do not get angry because the opposition dictates to them.
They take to the squares because they live reality every day.
Because they pay the bills.
Because they look for work.
Because they wait in hospitals.
Because they see their children leave.
Because they feel like strangers in their own country.
And when you try to present them as a used crowd, you are not understanding them.
You are despising them.
My photo on your wall makes me dirty.
Don't use it to wash away your responsibilities.
Don't use it to hide your failures.
Don't use it to build your story as a savior.
I am not you.
And if I am in the squares, I am not there because someone deceived me .
I am there because I know very well who brought me here.
