#YaMeTired
Murillo Karam appeared at a press conference to give his report on the Ayotzinapa case; after concluding with a response he moved away from the microphone, but not enough so that his voice could not be heard. Then, the mediator of the event pointed out that there was one more question, but before he could finish, Karam said a phrase that caused controversy: “I’m tired.” Thus, the round of questions and answers ended, but the commotion began on social networks.
The hashtag #YaMeCansé became a trend on platforms like Twitter, first in Mexico and then globally.
Using this phrase, users showed their disgust at Murillo’s attitude and other injustices that afflicted society, emphasizing violence.
Why did he say it?
After the criticism, Murilló assured that his expression did not refer to being exhausted from answering questions, but to being tired of “brutal violence.”
“I have lived it, I have it every day. Yes it shakes me. In addition to the fact that I had 40 hours without sleeping, ”she commented at that time in an interview for Televisa.
“Naturally, I don’t have to tell lies. I’m as human as anyone, and I get tired too. He has been sleeping for 30 days, four hours, and that day he had 40 hours (awake). Also, I came from Chilpancingo, where the truth is when you hear them (parents) you shudder at the impotence of not being able to give them an immediate truth”, Murillo Karam added.
