#23 Presidential elections [en/esp] Elecciones presidenciales
Entre el miedo y la pasion
Between fear and passion
En nuestro pais, "Argentina" el dia se ayer se dio la segunda vuelta electoral y nos saco se encima una presion que llevamos durante todo el año.
Quizas para muchos de ustedes les pueda parecer una locura. Este año tuvimos 3 votaciones para presidente. Si, 3 elecciones. Es dificil explicar como es vivir Argentina el otro dia escuche que le decian a una mujer como piropo que ella es como la Argentina. A lo que me rei mucho y no pude esperar un segundo para preguntarle a quien dijo el piropo porque le dijo eso. El me contesto, Argentina tiene un poco de todo.
No se si es la mejor forma de describirla pero bastante se acerca.
Este es un pais constitutivamente federal, que tuvo invasion Española, una invasion Inglesa, un pais que tuvo tomado el pais por militares en donde se torturo, se desaparecio y se mato a muchas petsonas por pensar de manera diferente.
Un pais que tiene como simbolo a Maradona y a Messi. A Gardel, Mercedes Sosa, Borges y tantas personalidades que son reconocidas en el mundo como iconos y representacion de nuestro pais. Hay muchos mas y no menos importantes.
Un territorio con 4 estaciones, todos los climas, cordillera, mar, desiertos, selva. Infinidad de paisajes y sobre todo la gente que constituye este pais es una especia muy singular. Y le doy ese calificativo porque creo que el Argentino es solidario, amiguero, simpatico y divertido, exitista, apasionado, delincuente tambien.
Teniendo en cuenta esta como una mala descripcion de nuesta escencia y siempre sabiendo que es teñida por mi vision poco informativa y mas bien sensible a lo vivido. Hoy tenemos un nuevo presidente. Que genero mucha controversia, muchos miedos, incertidumbre. Porque es el primer presidente que no tienen carrrera politica. Su propuesta tiene poco sustento. Pero aparecio en escena con la proesa de cambiar el destino del pais. Diciendo en su discurso dichos que el pueblo venia pidiendo hace mucho tiempo. Que saquen a tanto politico que no hace nada y cobra grandes salarios. Ordenar la economía. Generar mejores condiciones laborales. Y tambien unas mas controversiales como, libre portacion de armas, privatización de la educacion publica y algunas mas.
Teniendo en cuenta estos dichos que pais somos vivir las elecciones aca se vive apasionadamente como si fueran equipos de futbol y no de forma racional siempre hablando de la generalidad no todos lo viven asi.
Asique esto genera mucha tension. El ambiente esta tenso, hay mucha violencia en el aire. La gente esta cansada y la pasion por estos temas nos pone aun mas irritables y todo se vive con cautela. Les voy a compartir algunas fotos que no son de mi autoria para poder compartirles lo vivido.
In our country, "Argentina" the second round of elections took place yesterday and took off a pressure that we have been carrying all year long.
Maybe for many of you it may seem crazy. This year we had 3 votes for president. Yes, 3 elections. It is difficult to explain what it is like to live in Argentina. The other day I heard a woman being told as a compliment that she is like Argentina. I laughed and couldn't wait a second to ask the person who said the compliment why he said that. He replied, Argentina has a little bit of everything
I don't know if that's the best way to describe it but it's pretty close.
This is a country that is constitutionally federal, that had a Spanish invasion, an English invasion, a country that had the country taken over by the military where many people were tortured, disappeared and killed for thinking differently.
A country that has as a symbol Maradona and Messi. Gardel, Mercedes Sosa, Borges and so many personalities that are recognized in the world as icons and representation of our country. There are many more and no less important.
A territory with 4 seasons, all climates, mountains, sea, deserts, jungle. Infinity of landscapes and above all the people that constitute this country is a very singular species. And I give this qualification because I believe that the Argentinean is supportive, friendly, nice and funny, exitist, passionate, delinquent too.
Considering this as a bad description of our essence and always knowing that it is tinged by my uninformative vision and rather sensitive to what we have experienced. Today we have a new president. He generated a lot of controversy, fears and uncertainty. Because he is the first president who has no political career. His proposal has little support. But he appeared on the scene with the promise to change the destiny of the country. In his speech he said things that the people have been asking for a long time. To get rid of so many politicians who do nothing and receive large salaries. Order the economy. Generate better working conditions. And also some more controversial ones like, free carrying of weapons, privatization of public education and some more.
Taking into account these sayings what a country we are to live elections here are lived passionately as if they were soccer teams and not in a rational way always speaking of the generality not everyone lives this way.
So this generates a lot of tension. The atmosphere is tense, there is a lot of violence in the air. People are tired and the passion for these issues makes us even more irritable and everything is lived with caution. I am going to share with you some photos that are not my own in order to share with you what I have experienced.
Aca les comparto las 3 elecciones
Here I share with you the 3 choices_.
Asi fueron tomando fuerza las eleccione y finalmente como se definieron en terminos de porcentajes
Nos queda por ver que va a pasara con nuestro pais. Yo deseo qu3 mas alla de los ideales, del fanatismo, estemos todos unidos y empujando para el mismo lado. Porque mas alla de todo hay un fin comun por el que todos estamos de acuerdo y es que queremos estar mejor.
Aca les comparto unas fotos mas de la cadena de prensa del nuevo presidente. Estas fueron tomadas por un amigo mio y fotografo @tomifcuesta
This is how the elections were gaining momentum and finally how they were defined in terms of percentages.
It remains to be seen what will happen to our country. I wish that beyond ideals, beyond fanaticism, we are all united and pushing for the same side. Because beyond everything there is a common goal for which we all agree and that is that we want to be better off.
Here I share with you some more pictures of the press chain of the new president. These were taken by a friend of mine and photographer
