Minister of Internal Affairs called non-systemic voters extremists

An incredible interpretation of the attitude towards voters who will vote against the “main” parties was expressed on Thursday by the Minister of the Interior, M. Voridis, in questions regarding additional legislative regulation, with the help of which the Mitsotakis government plans to prevent the “Greeks” party of I. Kasidiaris from taking part in the elections.

In particular, he called anti-system voters, that is, those who will not vote for the 3 main parties that have ruled the country for the past decades, that is, New Democracy, SYRIZA and PASOK, extremist. That is, according to the minister, almost a third of Greek voters are extremists because they are dissatisfied with the Mitsotakis government, and also do not believe in other political parties that have been in power over the past decades and have led Greece to its current tragic state.

And he didn’t stop there, adding that “anti-systemic voting must be fought politically.” According to the minister, a political formula must be found to take away the right to vote from those who do not want to vote for the system parties and the current establishment. Summarizing what was said, the minister said (but for some reason the pro-government media did not pay attention to this):

“There are two issues that, in my opinion, should not be confused. The first is the policy to combat extremist voting. … The so-called anti-systemic voting, so to speak, in fact, obviously, is not a solution and does not no substantive proposals. This is a kind of blind protest, and yes, it needs to be fought politically!”

Now we live in the meanest times, when the so-called. Some kind of hybrid representative democracy has been created by the “world behind the scenes”, which is “tuned to the system”, but in fact, has nothing to do with real democracy. After all, what difference does it make which of several deputies the voter votes for, if they all belong to “one owner” …

PS The most recent illustration of the above is a recent the victory of the so-called. extreme right in Italy, led by D. Meloni, who literally the day after the victory turned into liberals.
