The allegations that those who make “justice” speeches to the public are negotiating for delegates with bags of money at back doors are no longer whispered even in coffeehouses, but spoken aloud. On the one hand, pensioners who go to the market in the evening to pick rotten vegetables in order to make ends meet... On the other hand, those who engage in political engineering at whiskey tables on hotel floors... This is precisely the picture that has raised the anger of the people.
In the order of those who do politics not for the people but for the seat, delegates are brought into line not with ideas but with money. According to the allegations, the money that Özkan Yalım carries in bags has become a symbol not of intra-party democracy but of the rent system. Those bags no longer only carry money; they also carry the collapse of merit, the decay of morality and how politics is polluted.
Imagine a hotel room...
Thick curtains drawn. Expensive drinks on the table, phones on silent. While outside, citizens are struggling to make ends meet, inside, delegate calculations are being made. One asks “how many votes are guaranteed”, the other unzips the bag. What they call democracy has turned into an auction. Whoever distributes more makes the most noise.
And then they stand in front of the cameras and say “we are the hope of the people”.
The public is tired of watching this theater. Because there is a gap between the reality of the citizens and the life they live. While a mother cannot buy milk for her child, the pleasure tables of political barons in hotel lobbies turn into a great anger in the conscience of the nation.
It's like a caricature...
On the one hand, a pensioner carrying two onions in his net...
On the other hand, political merchants hunting for delegates with leather bags...
On the one hand, people who can't sleep thinking about their electricity bill...
On the other hand, the reigning owners who hold “intra-party change” meetings in hotels with jacuzzis...
Then they turn around and try to lecture the people on morality, democracy and justice.
People are now asking:
If so much money goes to the delegates, who owns the big coffers behind this scheme?
Because where politics decays, conscience dies first. And where conscience dies, the people not only become poorer but also lose hope.
