<div class="text-justify">Hello steemians friends today I want to comment on how some have privileges and become assholes. And is that bourgeois democracy is an apparent equality where everyone has opportunities to "overcome". Behind that strong illusion of freedom, privileges are well established and have been installed for a long time. We know the bourgeois privileges, the merchants, the bankers, the industrialists and landowners. Aristocratic privileges are known (Queen Elizabeth of England receives 104.7 million dollars a year and the English crown 419 million, for not doing anything, because they are like that). But there are other milder ones, the privileges of professional politicians, that of bureaucrats, of all those who have a piece of power over many; power to decide, to choose (with the finger), discretionary power: "you pass, you stay", power to administer, power to judge and condemn. They are soft privileges, almost that you do not even feel it; generally one perceives the "chosen" as a privileged person, but the truth is, whoever has it is the one who chooses. In the end, all the privileges become almost the same as always: wines and pleasures, whores and parties, yachts, watches, perfumes, trips, houses and padded strollers, vanities and status (each at their moral and cultural level) ... Privileges, then!

The bourgeois democracy is, then, only a very strong illusion of freedom, but we are all bound, bound to the privileges of a few. Why bourgeois democracy and not socialism, the assembly, the debate of ideas, criticism and popular participation? We must ask that question to Venezuelan officials who enjoy privileges.

In the social scale the soft privileges are third, behind the kings and the capitalists, after these two classes of privileges and privileged classes are the professional bureaucrats and politicians (over there the church). That is the space that now obscures our society, confused, diffuse, the garden of the brown cat. In it walk old socialists with cheaters businessmen, technicians, linguists, image consultants and publicists, swindlers, defectors and governors, evangelical pastors and Catholic priests, mayors. We are not surprised to see now a minister minister, but of the youth, or a publicist directing the state television channel, because in their trips they talked with the right person to reach a privileged position. The state defined as a public service is part of the same strong illusion of freedom evoked by the word "democracy".

The privileges: no one is accountable and all are assholes. </div>
