By Teodor Keko Albanians have remained astonished by their now public and original, unprecedented theses, so discriminatory in order to understand the people, not even the intelligentsia for intellectualism, nor the common folk for patriotism. Does this mean the boredom of this mentally enslaved stratum, business gangs and a new “intelligentsia” of these our recent pseudo-journalists who crush us with a supposedly urban, European, anti-communist morality and who knows what else, while producing nothing except talk? And likewise, where are these people taking the country when they place themselves above non-values with a little game code meant to confuse public opinion? Nothing else, with the little and the big of politics and with their silent or noisy violence, to settle things as they themselves wish. Nor will it occur to anyone that it is the task of our whole burned-out society to save itself from clan warfare and the overabundance of people who know neither state nor law. But since we boast of our representatives at the head of institutions and of the so-called international representatives who speak in the name of the people, yet do not seem to stand up without making a distinction between those who are at the head of the state and those who work to overthrow it? Or when the self-proclaimed democrats do not feel that they are bringing the country toward annihilation through unrestrained hatred? Every day one sees and hears some strange statements that are somewhat difficult to swallow. And yet they are repeated with such cynicism as if they had come from a single school of political irresponsibility. This climate can bring nothing but moral destruction, civic disappointment, and the ruin of every norm of democratic coexistence. We no longer have the luxury of closing our eyes to this phenomenon.
