In recent days, two types of news have been making headlines in the press almost every day: “slander allegation” and “confession statement”.
Someone is accusing someone else, someone is deciphering someone else.
These outrages are no coincidence. The cause of these evils we are exposed to is the system set up by political brokers who have made this country unlivable through their own networks of self-interest.
When we pay attention, we see the same group under all evils. Names change, signboards change, parties change; but the mentality does not change.
Their modus operandi is the same in every party: They cozy up to power, they look for opportunities and hold positions. They seek office not the cause, rent not the people.
They try to find a position in every party; they have no ideology, only interests. They settle wherever the dirty order is and reproduce rapidly
Within this network; there are tenders, bribery, plunder, theft, discrimination, corruption, injustice, meritlessness, slander, betrayal
There is complete immorality.
Both the slanderer and the confessor are born on the same ground
Slanderers and confessors emerge from this rottenness. .
Most of the time, they appear in unexpected places and at unexpected times as “president”, “deputy”, “consultant”, “coordinator” or “favorite” of a power center.
Both the slanderer and the confessor are figures linked to power.
The slanderer speaks to gain or maintain power.
The confessor speaks when he loses power or when the balance of power shifts.
The motivation for the emergence of both is similar: interest, positioning and protection.
When Power Shakes, Confession Begins
Slander is often a means to weaken an opponent.
Confession is often a strategy to maintain a position, to move to a safer space and to protect oneself.
When the balance of power shifts, the confessor emerges. The person who was silent yesterday, or even part of the system, begins to speak out when the wind turns against them. This speech is not always a pure moral awakening; it is often a reflex of protection, an attempt to change position and move closer to the new center of power.
Both figures feed on the weakness of institutional morality.
The deadbeat system produces both the slanderer and the confessor. As long as the wheel of this deadbeat system turns, it will continue to produce these twins.
The slanderer speaks as long as the system is strong.
A confessor speaks when the system is shaken.
One is armed with false allegations, the other with inside information.
But both operate on a ground where knowledge is instrumentalized for power.
How Does the Rotten System Work?
The rotten system first produces slander.
It creates space through slander, fear and discrediting.
Then, when the crack grows, the insiders turn to confession.
This cycle is the political mechanics of institutional decay.
A robust order cannot harbor a slanderer; an independent judiciary and a free media limit him. Nor can the confessor become a bargaining figure, because transparency already makes the truth visible.
A rotten system produces its own actors.
And those actors are cogs in the same wheel, even if they appear to be enemies.
They are soul mates.
Social Outcome
The constant circulation of this news generates two emotions in society:
Hopelessness and desensitization.
“The perception that ”everyone is doing it anyway", the constant sense of crisis and uncertainty about the future permeate society.
This weakens democratic culture.
The citizen is either completely neutralized or lives in a state of rage.
Main Cause
If success in a society is measured not by merit but by loyalty; if critical thinking is considered “betrayal”; if the law is not independent; if public administration is not transparent... there will be slanderers and confessors.
We will fight for clean politics, a clean society and a dignified order.
