Jorge Carrillo Olea: The world of colonialism

The seventh National Search Brigade begins in Morelos

The World Soccer Championship, which became entangled in its own strings, gave something to talk about. But he did give space to talk about what Europe does not like: colonialism.

Surprisingly, teams such as Morocco emerged with great class, which overwhelmed the superb Castilian. The Spanish colonialist mentality has been evident for centuries in every act of its people.

Example: He wanted us to call him Mother Country, we little orphans.

It goes on: as a last tribute to the conquistadors, before the euro came into force, he printed the effigies of Cortés and Pizarro on the last banknotes.

Other: It is evident how boring their royal majesties Juan Carlos and Felipe have had in their repetitive trips to Latin America. They come on the occasion of each presidential inauguration and Ibero-American summits. It is argued that they come to strengthen hispanicity.

More: grumbling from the Royal Spanish Academy because the American countries decided to produce our own dictionaries with the national lexicon.

As an auction, to challenge our ethical feeling, Spain grants citizenship to characters who with their conduct insult the Mexican people, Salinas, Peña Nieto, Calderón and other notorious crooks.

Returning to soccer, it is rejoicing because countries that were colonies that won or competed with countries that were their metropolises: Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, the Netherlands, France, Denmark and the United Kingdom.

And beware, it was the dark-skinned Africans who saved the French honor by giving them second place. Those colonies are now third world countries thanks to colonialist plunder.

Europeans do not want to remember the exemplary Leopold II of Belgium, to whom his many monarch nephews, in a family conclave held in Berlin, gave him what is today the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

To confirm his royal dignity, he ordered severed human arms to be sent to him as a sign of the effectiveness of his justice. That Leopoldo was the brother of Carlota Amalia, whom she, already crazy, stripped of her property.

Once political colonialism was over, cultural and economic colonialism followed, giving rise to imperialism. Let’s not forget Spanish religious colonialism, which no longer exists thanks to the generational extinction of clerical migrations. Those who taught us to pray with zetas.

We write this not only for the love of kicking, but to raise concern about how the situation is worsening with the migrations that occur throughout the world: Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, the Maghreb, Ecuador, Honduras, Mexico or Venezuela. They call us expelling countries.

Faced with the disappearance of the colonies, the former metropolises began to intervene in the internal affairs of their former colonies. Its about new colonialismwhich has different facets: agiotista financing of development projects, presence of business firms, advisers or technicians from the old metropolis.

Another aspect inherited from the colonial empires consists of the phenomenon called postcolonial ebbwhich is a migration from the colonies to the old metropolises: Jamaicans, Syrians and Pakistanis to Great Britain, Senegalese and Algerians to France, Latin Americans to Spain.

After doing violence to these autochthonous cultures, selling them the virtues of the Northwestern world, Europeans now complain of being invaded by peoples they subjugated.

Mexico was very slowly decolonized in the 19th century, more so at the beginning of the 20th. Unfortunately now, perhaps from the 1960s to here, certain social classes have loved being subjects of US imperialism.

Its effective mechanisms are the English language, pro-Yankee education and foreign investment. All of them would be happy if they could be part of the american dream. That is the new colonialism of Mexico!

If Qatar’s scores are left behind, how do you see a happy ending in it? Today the countries that were colonized have to deal with a heavy legacy of backwardness. They were territories maintained for the sole purpose of economic exploitation for metropolitan benefit.

The settlers left scrap, little that could be reused. It is an example to see the red London buses circulating in Sri Lanka, formerly the English Ceylon.

In certain post-colonial countries, problems of multi-ethnicity, acculturation, corruption and human rights abuses arose due to the implantation of life systems that do not coincide with the local idiosyncrasies. True enclaves of foreigners have emerged with their own laws, with contempt for the local.

In Mexico we have pecadillos. We just discovered our blackness. Some already named it mexgritude. We only know that they are from Guerrero and from Veracruz and we don’t want to find out anything else. Discriminatory form of national imperialism.

We continue to delve into living in a world that is getting smaller every day for its growing population. It is an axiomatic reality, not an ideological one.

We must avoid supremacies. Prepare ourselves to live in spaces that force us to revisit supremacist concepts of comfort.

The soccer championship served to demonstrate everything possible that is yet to be achieved by countries that are underestimated today. Let’s go in search of lost time, according to Proust.
