I am writing these few lines on the vote is going to happen this Sunday. I'm not talking about the pros and cons of constitutional reform ahead. For that I recommend reading other blogs, especially that of Karet, where he bound by several bloggers writing for the argument ( here) and who has also published a table where she and Mary Caraota have compiled, compared and analyzed the changes proposed by the president and his acolytes ( here.) I just I have a reason to vote against: I do not agree with the continuity, whether Chavez, CAP or any other ruler. We are in the XXI century not the nineteenth, where the constitutions are changed at the whim of the principal of the day (white Guzman comes to my mind, for example).
clarify that point, I still have the post. This Sunday, like every Sunday where there have been elections since I became an adult, I'm going to vote, and in this case, I will vote with the certainty that my vote will not count. That he will not lose, while the YES expire. I do not know whether to cheat or not cheat, just know that my wife and I will vote NO.
I do not trust the cleanliness of these elections because they do not trust the government or any of its dependencies. My position is very similar to that of Luis . But like him, go to vote, knowing that my opinion will not count.
Some say I'm pessimistic, fatalistic. That's right. Like the ancient Vikings, I prepare for a fight that I know beforehand I'll lose (look at what it means to Ragnarok), but despite that, I go, and keep fighting. Despite feeling that we will not achieve victory, or that the outcome is decided in advance, I'd rather go to vote and let them know that I disagree with them, to stay in my house and give my tacit support. Because every time someone speaks of abstention as a form of struggle, what he is doing is giving their support to this government.
So good, this Sunday you might dine in Hades, but not without at least having fought.
