[MoI] Debate - Constitutional Revalidation.
Demonaire
Greeting to all our cuban comrades.
Before to everything: I'm the Minister of Interior for the Porky's Government. I want to excuse for this being the first article of the present term, but since the first day the Ministry is working hard to propose to the National Assembly some bills to be debated and voted. In this moment, two of those bills are still pending for approvation by El Presidente and I'm sure more are forthcoming. But, for now, we open a debate about this so important topic:
Let's making short the cuban history before to enter in the purpose of the article we'll treating now: In the moment of the creation of eCuba, two groups were forme
😛UFC (United For Cuba), a serb-croat-greek coallition, and CHALA (Cuban-Hispanic-Anglo-LatinAmerica) coallition, who disputed the political power in the country. As both groups treated between themselves like enemies, it was mere obvious the legal dispositions one group they made, the other group didn't acknowledge. After some time, CHALA coallition prevailed but they accept other communities (greeks, turks, serbs, croats, other europeans, etc.) could play in democracy and be treated like cuban. However, many of the legal dispositions, accepted by CHALA, remained pending for approbation by those communities.
Some efforts in that sense was made before but to no avail. Hence, in these (and other future) articles, we'll make a debate about those legal dispositions, beginning, of course, with the eCuban Constitution.
The rules are simple: EVERYTHING in the Constitution is subject to debate and propose. For participate and give your opinion, just leave a comment in this article. And because there is a consensus between the CHALA coallition, no topic in the cuban national forum will be opened (unless they ask us for that), however, a simultaneous article in spanish language will be created for the current debate.
The following text is the Constitution of eCuba, as it is currently made:

¿Versión en castellano?
En 5 minutos.
No veo la lógica en hacer esto argumentando que unos pocos no participaron.
Me refiero, no lo hicieron porque no quisieron, no por imposibilidad.
Así mismo, se ha de hacer reformas cada vez que entre un eCiudadano nuevo, ya que este no pudo estar presente ni votar a la eConstitución del momento.
Las leyes ya se han hecho, y ya están traducidas.
Al igual que un nuevo jugador viene y debe acatarlas, ellos que hagan lo mismo.
Fueron leyes decididas en un foro, entre un grupo muy pequeño de gente y cuyo grupo discutió enteramente en español unas normas. Ni siquiera se puede decir que hubo una participación multicultural porque las pocas intervenciones de los no hispanos eran ignoradas o disculpadas. Finalmente, fueron hechas en el marco de una suerte de "Guerra Política" contra otro grupo en el que participaron también otros grupos tanto hispanos como no hispanos.
En últimas, puede verlo como un nuevo proyecto de acto constitucional que estoy proponiendo, surtiendo su respectivo debate.
Me parece bien que se revalide. Ojalá los no-hispanos participen, es fundamental.
Leyes decididas en un foro donde todos pueden entrar. En un grupo suficiente de gente, que es la que participó. Hubo, ya que hubo intervenciones de personas no-hispanas. Así pues, si todo ya ha sido decidido democraticamente, ¿para que hacerlo de nuevo con esa escusa?.
Lo unico que me cabe pensar es que se hace así para que un grupo consiga mejores posiciones con lo que se vote. No por el bien de todos.
O el de los, como tu dices, "Ex-PTOvers".
De todas formas, coincido con Marchao, se puede hacer una reforma y estoy a bien de que esta se haga. Pero que no pongan escusas como querer ayudar a los que "fueron brutalmente reprimidos solamente porque querían TOvear eCuba", y por tanto apartados.
Como le dije, no tiene que verlo como una revalidación: sino como una nueva propuesta sujeta a debate y modificaciones. Sencillamente para mi y para muchos otros, tiene problemas de legitimidad que deben ser solucionados de la mejor manera, precisamente para luego, ahí si, poder decir que los ciudadanos nuevos se tienen que sujetar a las normas vigentes.
Es decir, que ahora ya no es para integrar a los no-hispanos, que poco aportarán al tema. Sino que es para darle legitimidad porque cuatro personas digan que no la tiene, así se podrá imponer a todos los demás con las modificaciones que esas 4 personas quieren ponerle.
Ojo, que ya hay un artículo del mismo tema para los que hablan español.
Interesante dato.
Y yo que pensaba que iban a estar juntos en el mismo artículo.
Pero bueno; como quieras.
Me sumo.
/me caricia el gatito Demonaire.
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
