Two Achievements of the Movement of 15 M




After two weeks of protests in the streets of motion we draw two conclusions 15 M that can make us think.

The first unusual fact is that in the days before an election, the newspapers on their front pages show pictures of places full of people who spontaneously adhered to the movement rather than the photos of political leaders in their closing rallies campaign. For a moment the angry succeeded in attracting the attention of half the world and the political eclipse.

In view of these facts is inevitable when the following idea: if the disorganized movement accomplishes this not achieve what hundreds of thousands of people gathered in a consistent manner over time?

This is where we begin to perceive the true achievement of the movement of 15 M, with little to show that the sacred cows of politics may leave the main pages of the newspapers. Then we realize that it is relatively easy to end up with things that seemed immovable.

The second event or achievement given in the evening with the highest concentration of the movement. The Central Electoral Board declared illegal the concentration and the order ends up passing through the hands of another court that ratified. The ban, which comes from the highest levels of state seems worthless and do not get response from the concentrates or the police.

For a moment everything becomes meaningless, politicians go into the background, the laws do not work, will only serve a small group of people who decide to join in a public place to launch protest songs. He had never seen the system so weak, so vulnerable to politicians, and a question that we never would do appear in our minds what if it were not so hard to change things?, What if we do it?

The revolution of the 15 M is the revolution of consciousness and show us a model of the future as a society without fear. No fear that everyone can develop their skills freely, a society where conscience would not impose a punitive law but the man himself.

Some say that these kids live in a utopia, that man is a wolf to man, who always want more than others, and so on. If you think that stand aside and let those who have realized that make the switch one day in a natural way that you consider now a utopia incarnate as a living reality and you naturally assume it as your own. Do not you see it now does not mean you can not see it in the future.

These young people have shown us that probably the easiest way to achieve social transformation is simply to return again and again, every day people, the same place to make known to the authorities and economic power, the desire for change, without develop proposals for that, in due course, extraordinarily wise people in their area will be ready to provide the necessary ideas. The M 15 has shown us that people only need to be seen, be felt and join. We have shown how to the union of a few citizens, political leaders lose their role and value laws.
