Where is he going? | Dawn

The true electoral difference of the first two parties is about 33-20%. Not small but not ferocious and clearly reversible even without achieving the unity of the democratic faction! Those who compare with last year’s election result simply overlook that SYRIZA had in the general elections a difference of +32% and +35%, whenever the national elections were close to the European elections (2019 and 2014).

All the more so since the new and clearly immature Kasselakis project is in many ways ongoing and parts of the electorate are slowing down but may be converted.

Finally, the polls never showed, on average, more than 16% so what defied expectations was a point, let alone two for the most optimistic.

This was the landscape the day after the elections, with SYRIZA having a bittersweet taste given that it had passed through the caudian forks but did not make sufficient use of the opponent’s collapse. However, panic has now settled in Maximos and a great disturbance has broken out in PASOK.

In Koumoundourou they started thinking about the summer holidays but the fat lady hadn’t sung yet. Manipulating internal party developments at gunpoint would be the hot race of the summer. What we are already watching unfold, and the autonomy of politics is standing up against it.

The good, the bad and the ugly

Initially, the proposal to announce a referendum by some scientific collaborators-former MPs, or the announcement of Tsipras’ comeback through tele-prophecies, was initially heard as unequal. Indeed, in themselves all of this had something resurrecting (strakastrukes). Especially the referendum, as the 5th Syriza ballot within 8 months, would declare that “six, second nature!” and it would constitute pure mockery. Even if the question from the vague whether we all love unity, turned to the real one: maybe the newly elected should leave, we would be ridiculous.

Why would a leader who voluntarily “stepped aside” wish to return just a few months later? It is comical to claim that he is trying to put himself in charge of all those he has sent off or clashed with them from time to time (Varoufakis, LAE, Zoe Konstantopoulou, Philis, Kasselakis, why not Alavanos or Lafazanis…). The strange thing is that the underground scenario continues to circulate in the media and is treated with depth.

We have not heard anyone question what nonsense you are speaking sir nor have you heard any outright condemnation that “prophets” are spewing all this out of their bellies. On the contrary, gradually the oracles of a Pythian who takes expired, instead of causing confusion, began to be reproduced as Pythian titles. This is how yesterday’s escalation, the one that made the trumpets of the civil war sound again.

It is obvious that the “director without a name” is behind the developments, as the screens of the 70s would say. It is also obvious who has the power and the motivation to build “reserve” solutions. On the other hand, no one can imagine Mr. Tsipras in this role, for a number of reasons. Then why doesn’t he end it explicitly? For what reason should he advance the entanglement, which pursued him silently?

However, if Mr. Tsipras is no longer with the good guys, this does not mean that he is with the bad guys! There is also the more complex dialectic of the good, the bad and the ugly. Those who follow Sergio Leone know that alliances between three independent actors can lead to paradoxes, just out of a desire to hurt the third.

Possible motives

The motivation in each case of the third autonomous player added to the field is investigated.

In the most benign version, it is the syndrome of the young pensioner, who is flattered by listening to the other patrons of the cafe praising the pimp-Alexis who would now have taken the City even though he knows very well what the Cities mean.

In the second case, it is for honor, which led K. Karamanlis the major to hand over his party to Con/no Mitsotakis for a fuck. And so we saw not only that Prime Minister but also his son and mayors his daughter and his grandson, not to mention other grandchildren who picked up his otakustic habits. Why did we suffer all this? For Karamanlis to become a second time PtD, which no longer meant many things.

In the third version which is the worst, yesterday’s leader behaves like a philarch and under pressure from yesterday’s officials he agrees to enter the game of entanglement as a junior partner just to ensure their political survival.
