I know that the unique thought is sectarian, and Taliban, and that the correction believes of itself with the moral monopoly of the West. Despite the repetitive softness - and therefore harmless, deactivated beforehand - that it manages in its ‘argumentations’.

This week, I was with a Greek professor from the UVA. We spoke, by chance, about bulls. He justified the bullfights elegantly. We converse for two hours. My starting position is against, but I understand that there are contrary and educated visions, usually more educated than those of the animalists. I open my ear, dude, I open my ear. I learn. I respect. I think. I rethink. I get it. Or I try it. You go with a shield.

I’m not saying I’m a university professor. But when someone who uses half a neuron speaks, the first thing I do is paying attention, place myself on their board, rethink, etc. not leaving, like a vulgar panelist or naive commentator of the current times, from their prejudices, without listening, defensively, with blinders.

But, Carlos, have you ever wondered that things may not be as you think? It is amazing the power that you arrogate to yourself. I say a small, methodical, non-destabilizing doubt. I issue opinions, not judgments. You seem to speak from a dais, and you haven’t even reached twenty-five. It’s surprising.

In short, I am tired of arrogance. And personally, your thoughts about me being wrong forces me to raise my eyebrows. Everything is very basic. I can think the same of you. I do not know if I will make myself understood because I have told you more times. If you do not respect the person in front of you, what you are doing is collecting tickets to win the lottery of intellectual defeat.

Lastly, the correction has the elegance of accepting the different, making the other an “equal”. The left-wing is supposed to be tolerant. Well, all those things are missing from your speech. You have not once reasoned against my invective; you say things of the type “may Allah come” or the like. Not even half an argument, it is always ‘Go, go’.

?

And in the letter, you sent me, you speak again from the same position. It never ceases to amaze me. But if you have not understood before that this is not the way to act, as you had not noticed that you should not cycle on the sidewalks, or that you have to be more discreet, and that it is ugly to plot under the table, or talk about one in the way you do it, with third parties; these words will not contribute anything either.

Did I do wrong? Yes. I give each one his own. To each one, one thing. I can be saying one thing to you and the opposite to another. You don’t need to get your spine caressed, but to get you sobered up.

Let me give you an example: 11-M. My official position is that it was Al-Qaeda. It is what I have reflected in my logbook blog. But then, I have sent emails with the dark spots, which are many. Exasperation is not advisable for the Spanish population. I prefer not to ask many questions. However, I have strong suspicions that behind, even in a third level, were ETA and the NIC. Of course, it does. Each terrorist gang uses an explosive and the remains of the trains have traces of the one used by ETA. On the other hand, the Asturian miner. And a lot of hidden evidence. A lot. And a month earlier, a document in which an action like that of 11M was planned was detained in ETA. It would be verbose to elaborate further.

What the leftist hooligan does is starting with the denial of the doubt. I’m not that stupid. What I aspire to is calming the “conspiranoic” and make him see that not everything is so clear, by noooooo means. But I have told you this - and I have stated it in the meetings with the brotherhood - many times. People are one-eyed. They need other versions.

I see people, from my point of view, of course, very lost, some with a current potential and other with past one. I’m not going to tell you things as soon as I meet you - spontaneity and “naturalness” have to do with lack of education. Neither after two months. And less at your age. But, I assumed you liked to think and question things and be picky and strive for excellence. Obviously, you had no age to be spoken frankly. Elsewhere, ellipsis.

I imagine where things are going in life. And where should they go. But what I see clearly is that the official left has turned to good faith and correctness and that it is a shame to hear its thoughtless clichés. Faced with this, the right has built different programs and has an intellectual elite that the left does not even reach. It hurts, but as long as it continues licking its wounds and talking about emigrants, etc., it is on its way to settling itself in ridiculousness. And look how much I’m sorry. But the balls of the Frankfurt School or Walter Benjamin are history. I only see “Go, go”, denigrations without arguing, empty adjectives, and light thinking. Training is lacking.

I have not changed. I think more or less the same, but I am less gullible, and I recognize intelligence wherever it occurs. And I thought before that women should be at home, for example. And from not respecting their place many evils have come out. I also understand that they want financial independence to be able to separate. But the man is the man, and the woman is the woman. If that scandalizes you, I can’t do anything. I do not want a feminist girl by my side, but a classic one in the most classic sense of the word. And when Zapatero said that he was a feminist himself, I felt sorry for him. A pitiful guy. The nothing.
