For centuries, people fought — with blood, sweat, and dreams — for a sublime idea: democracy.
Power of the people, by the people, for the people.
But that ideal has been kidnapped.
Not by tanks in the streets or generals in uniform…
But by smiling suits, by discreet lobbies, and by invisible hands pulling strings behind the curtain of power.

💰 Wild Capitalism: The New Tyrant

Capitalism, once a motor of progress, has turned predator.
It mutated into wild capitalism — a beast that devours states, dismantles public services, buys consciences, and privatizes even the soul of democracy.
Today, politicians no longer legislate for citizens — they legislate for shareholders, investment funds, and faceless conglomerates that don't even know where the Republic Square is but know very well where the profits are.

Health? A business.
Education? An ROI opportunity.
Housing? A commodity.
The citizen? A disposable data point.

🕴️ Secret Societies: Architects of the Shadows

But capital doesn't act alone.
Beside it, as shadow architects, operate secret societies: freemasons, discreet circles, power sects that — far from the light — make all the decisions that should be public.
There, between symbolic pillars and whispered oaths, they choose ministers, draft laws, appoint judges and manipulate entire governments.

And the people?
They're only called to vote...
After that, they return to their assigned place: silent, obedient, distracted, and tired.

🤡 The Puppets of the System

Parties, whether left or right, have long ceased to represent ideas.
They represent interests.
They've become marketing firms, with puppets trained to talk, gesture, and distract.

Parliaments have become theaters.
Governments, boards of directors.
And citizens, spectators of a show where truth is optional, and the people are always extras.

🧨 Conclusion: Time to Break the Chains

We don't live in a democracy.
We live in a democratic illusion, a performance of freedom where the script is written by those who were never elected.

It's time to break the silence.
To point fingers at those selling the country in the name of profit.
To demand full transparency, real participation, and a new public ethic where power truly belongs to the people.

Because if nothing is done,
soon we won't wake up in a broken democracy…
but in a perfect dictatorship — where everyone claps, unaware they're in chains.
