Havana Cuba. – Neither “media matrix” nor “politicization of the matter”, the truth is that the murders of women continue, while those in power must take action on the matter, they do not do enough to change things and, as a typical reaction when they are questioned, they hide behind justifications and choose to politicize and divert the discussion towards who the subjects are, the media, international organizations and civil society groups that disseminate the news, attend to and investigate the cases and persistently visualize a phenomenon that deserves full attention.
And while they try to demonstrate with all kinds of fallacies, prejudices, repression and political discrimination that everything responds to a “media matrix”, the regime itself not only tries to create an “opinion matrix” in its favor, where it commits the crime of usurping the role of the true victims, but practices complicity with the murderer as well as with all the patterns, norms, discourses and social behaviors that are the roots of feminicide.
An excellent analysis by Ana Leónpublished on this same page, denounces and demonstrates with irrefutable truths what is really happening in Cuba and how the system itself encourages violence, while “law” and “order” relegate citizen protection to a secondary level while prioritizing and using all resources to shield and perpetuate the regime, even to the detriment of people’s safety and even paying with the total loss of credibility, both in the police forces and in what should be the true penal system and the power of attorney.
But in Cuba, the system of institutions does not pay taxes to the well-being of the citizen, but instead forms a true mafia-like framework from which, under the pretext of “homeland or death”, those who do not share or conspire with it and in its favor are excluded, in such a way that that not even the right to life is placed above what the regime, without any shame, claims as its “right” to perpetuate itself in power.
That is why I agree with Ana León in the fact that Cuba, more through repression than through laws and decrees (conceived as part of that “shield” to which I alluded), has been converted (and we have allowed it to convert, since we must assume the individual responsibility that corresponds to us) in a country that is incompatible with life but also in a place that is more than compatible with the horror and tragedy that often surrounds death.
Since the deaths of so many young people left behind by other people’s wars, under the insane idea of ”internationalism”, and especially the Angolan massacreeven the hundreds of preventable deaths that the sustained lie of a “perfect health system” was settled more than the lie itself COVID-19 pandemic.
Since January 1959, deaths have been the most stalwart ally of a system that is not afraid to invoke them and practice them with violence when they are found or even suspected of being lost. A system that does not show the slightest respect for the dead, judging by the horror that we see daily in cemeteries and funeral homes, by the complaints that accumulate due to the poor quality of coffins and floral offerings, by the absurdity of move a corpse or a seriously ill person in a wheelbarrow because there are no hearses (although hundreds of cars are imported for tourism and the military elite).
In recent years, between landslides that interrupt the lives of some girlsbetween aviation accidents from which they shy away from assuming responsibilities with old tricks, between tornadoes and hurricanes that bring to light the perpetual abandonment that surrounds us, between hotel explosion which is still a mystery reckless fires that consume the lives of almost child firefighters along with their dreams, we cannot help thinking that if there were a truth in the phrase “socialism or death” it is precisely that in which it is revealed to us as a system incapable of offering other alternatives to being that do not imply a fatal outcome.
The negligence death of a dozen babies in a maternity hospital of Havana and the mockery that he has recently offered as response from the Ministry of Public Healthalthough we are outraged by so much cynicism, they are not even remotely the most recent proof of the horror that we live on a daily basis, meanwhile, just a few days after that tragedy we have learned of many others, in the most diverse forms that death can take : suicides even in the cell of a police stationbloody assaults in the middle of the street, deaths due to medical malpractice or lack of medicines, drowning of rafters crossing the Straits of Florida, which are added to the deaths due to the non-accidental sinking of boats and those caused by traffic accidents due to poor condition of roads and vehicles.
So the sea, the waters, are not the only cursed circumstance that surrounds our lives and that sometimes makes us cry and curse, but also death and the violence with which it comes to us, undoubtedly generated by a system compatible with it. .
