What happened last Sunday also shows that the prevailing apathy can be faced by an awakening that goes beyond criticism on social networks and the integration of the opposition in a proactive way, recognizing everyone as a current of thought with the same goals. In this case, contain the so-called 4T regime, the impulse that President López Obrador has imposed for more than four years without there being a real human barrier to confront him. Everything had remained in reactions on social networks, statements in the media, written columns or other ways of opposing the president “from afar”.
The spirit of the opposition has resumed its cause with a massive mega-expression, which has been shown not only in accordance with their slogans but also that they have found in unity a possible model to make a strong front against Morena in the upcoming elections, both in the State of Mexico, as in the 2024 presidential elections.
“The INE is not touched”, this is how the march in defense of the INE was experienced in CDMX
Said oppositionist awakening comes at a very stormy moment, when the “Va X México” alliance is experiencing a crisis that, it was assured, would end up collapsing; However, last Sunday’s demonstration once again harmonizes the intention of the president’s adversaries to hold together the proposal to defeat Morenismo.
The excuse was the National Electoral Institute, the presumed intention of ending it. However, the true intention of the march was always to show a citizen’s arm against AMLO. The protesters raised their slogans against everything that had to do with the so-called 4T and its most emblematic members.
walk peacefully
In a country as polarized as ours, peaceful protest must have a preponderant role as a society moving towards maturity, where violence is set aside and is condemned by all political parties. It is worth disagreeing, it is valid to demonstrate discontent by taking to the streets and organizing to defend institutions. In a way, it’s a healthy release of social tension; as long as this model is replicated as an exhibition of political freedom.
It was Senator Ricardo Monreal himself, who did not detract from the march, quite the contrary, because for the coordinator of the Morena senators, the expression of citizenship should call for a serene reflection: “The expressions of citizens that today (last Sunday) manifested themselves should call us to serene reflection. They should not surprise or offend anyone; it is democracy and it is freedom. It is the living Mexico”.
