MODERN TIMES – Where is the Testosterone?

Tiempo atrás escribí un post sobre un suicidio cometido por un viejo matrimonio ingles como consecuencia de sus penurias económicas.  Ahora otro matrimonio recurre al suicidio, esta vez en la Italia de Monti o Berlusconi.  Para mi no hay diferencias entre perros capitalistas.  Lo único cierto es que dos matrimonios han pagado con sus vidas.  Los culpables de este drama humano son los salvajes ajuste económicos, que hunde a la clase media.  Es entonces que me digo, ¿Dónde diablo está la testosterona?  ¿Por qué este estado de mansedumbre bovina por parte de las masas?  No es normal este estado budístico de no reacción.  Sin querer caer en el ridículo, llego a pensar, ¿Qué han puesto algo en las cañerías del agua que bebemos?  Púes una cosa es clara, hay una falta de testosterona por parte de los humillados.  Hasta una abeja sabe como defenderse.  Sin embargo nosotros somos pisoteados y no plantamos cara.

Esto ocurre por que dejemos nuestra testosterona en el congelador a cambio de tarjetas de créditos.  En la India es muy común el suicidio de campesinos que han perdidos sus huertos, al no poder pagar su crédito a los bancos.  Allí se nota también la falta de testosterona, aunque muchos optan por unirse a las guerrillas de orientación maoísta.  Digo yo que será más digno que inmolarse.  La solución vendrá cuando esa testosterona que tenemos inmóvil en el frigorífico la saquemos a relucir.  Entonces ese día nuestra ira cargada de una salvaje testosterona arrasara, cual lavas incandescentes, toda la mierda que inunda este caduco y podrido sistema.  Ese día recobraremos nuestra completa dignidad como seres libres.  Por supuesto nuestra testosterona será el perfecto aliado para hacer la limpieza general que con tanta ansiedad estamos esperando.

Some time ago I wrote an article about the suicide committed by an old English couple as a result of their economic hardship.  Now another married couple has resorted to suicide, this time in Italy under Monti or Berlusconi.  For me there are few differences between these capitalist monsters.  The only thing that is certain is that two married couples have paid dearly with their lives.  The perpetrator of this tragic human drama is the brutal economic austerity measures which are destroying the middle class.  This is when I start thinking aloud, where the hell is the testosterone in the people?  What is the reason for this sheepish state of meekness as seen in the masses?  This Buddhist state of no reaction is not normal, surely.  Without wanting to sound ridiculous, I am starting to think that the powers that be have put something into the pipes, through which the water that we drink flows?  One thing is clear though; there is a lack of testosterone among the oppressed and humiliated.  Even a bee knows how to defend itself better than us.  On the other hand, we have been trampled upon and we are not putting up a fight.

This occurs because we have somehow decided to safe keep our testosterone in the freezer, in exchange for credit cards.  In India it is very common to read about the suicides of farmers who have lost their land for failure to pay their debt to the banks.  There seems to be also a lack of testosterone among the people there; although some of them have chosen to join the guerrillas of Maoist orientation.  I would say that this is much more dignified than self-sacrifice.  The solution will come when one day we decide to retrieve the testosterone that we have stored in the refrigerator for so long.  On that day our savage, testosterone-laden anger will, like incandescent lava, purify all the shit that have filled this obsolete and rotten system.  We will then be able to retain our full dignity as free beings.  Of course our testosterone will be our perfect ally to carry out the cleansing that we have waited for with so much anxiety.
