He ruled a vast territory, his authority was absolute, officials cooperated with him to rule a large number of kings, he was all emperor, king of kings, chief chief, deity! and the human being who created him when the day ended.
“The Emperor’s New Track” It’s a story written by the Dane Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875), published in 1837, I’ll count it my way, which is something that proves between the reader and what is written.
The emperor liked to dress with the greatest elegance, he always saw the best clothes, he wore and picked up exquisite ones every day, this mattered most to him, avarice was based on good intelligence, the desire to buy and pose elegant clothes was the greatest weakness, if he forgot that life does not depend on the abundance of income.
The good of the community, good relations, the military, education, culture, economy, security, health, tourism…, nothing was as important as good clothes.
They brought two chests on their backs, of which they now abound, they went through the experienced wearers, they made sure that they could weave the best cloths, they confirmed that the beauty with which they were made was surprising, to the extent that only the intelligent can see those made, to them stupid people become invisible.
The message came to the emperor’s eyes, if he came in contact with those two people, he thought they would make him a costume, it was the clothes he was wearing!, he would be well dressed, he would also distinguish between those who were stupid people of his empire and those who were intelligent.
These leaders are in front of a possible and ideal victim; the treasures she kept, the watches that caused her gluttony, the valorization of herself by the clothes she wore, the mark!, as they say today, feeling herself the highest of the elite social class, set them before her eyes. Prejudice, greed, and an intellectual awareness of who might be the victim are necessary to stop him from getting involved, three qualities the Emperor possessed.
The former governor of another quejaba nation had many of his opponents and adversaries, so did the emperor. The new story would allow her to demonstrate that the opponents were the stupid ones, on the contrary, the lists, those seen on this beautiful story, were with her.
Great idea for the emperor: Show the new product at the annual exhibition! The deception presented as a garment visible to the list and invisible to the stupid was on the emblemática ogre, the mega-ogre, which was to serve to unmask their enemies, which would be highlighted in front of intelligent people.
The emperor paid large sums of money to estafadores who carried cloths and hills of greater price, quality, and beauty.
After a few days the ablest senator of the empire, who was a simple decorative official, was sent to review the progress of the extraordinario traje.
The tall member of the senate stood before the noble nobles who showed him every bit of the traje, he had nothing in front of his eyes but seemed to be illuminated by such beauty.
Plugging, hiding or twisting reality is a mistake with regard to intellectual ability, but the senator wondered why he was saying he would be classified as stupid and then memes would appear, he was silently complicit.
The official told the emperor about the significant progress in his journey and the extraordinarily handsome man he was waiting for, so he looked very good as he told her about every detail of the clothes, because a good politician made it easy to engage, as well as journalists, on the men’s side he adapted to what he was looking for, the emperor wanted to listen.
Those two pills were worth the joy, a lot of money, more comfort and luxury living to be able to continue working, the request was granted, in the end the journey was incredible.
Subsequently, the emperor sent another high official, the same thing happened without leaving anything, simulating and even alabo the beauty of the former prince, he returned with the emperor and also engaged him. It is rare that the atoll with a gift to the ruler, ¿verdade?
I caught the moment when the emperor came to see meditating on his wondrous journey, accompanied by the most distinguished personages of the government; the two ominous men showed it to each other, it was clear that neither of them saw anything, so the emperor said, “What a beautiful thing it is to me”.Arthur Schopenhauer wrote: “A man wants to make all his wishes come true”desire and necessity lead to reason.
Empezaron las alabanzas a mentiras: ¡Que bien le sienta! I asked you so much! What a beauty! Beautifully colorful! It’s a great deal! This is beautiful! This happens many times when they have eyes and do not see it, when they follow the wrong one even though they know the right one, when they deny crooked truths if it is convenient; the spiritual mind, some call it.
Deciding on the truth and acknowledging it is essential, without embargo, the presence of others, and the risk of appearing ignorant. We then turn to the practice of Joseph Goebbels’s Nazi advice: “Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth,” “The bigger the lie, the more people will believe it”, “After so many lies, more will come”. How many words will we accept as true to keep repeating them?, which will they be?, can we talk about another social network?
At the end of the day, the emperor would flaunt his career, if he celebrated a major anniversary of his empire, there would be a grand procession, culminating in narcissistic and exhibitionistic displays. The big jefe wanted to boost his ego, improve his image, seek the approval of his followers and continue the engagement until the rhetoric was satisfied with what the majority charmed him to express; the crowd was eager for engagement, they would obviously be wary of the palablary and accept that they would be treated as bad intelligence, although many in the background would not believe what they said, it is necessary to console all false hopes.
The two bribers helped the emperor take off his clothes and pretended to fold them and place the pieces of the imaginary clothes one by one.
A fashion show began, the emperor seated him on the throne, in the streets, azotes, doors, balconies and windows, the living rushed at the emperor and admired the beautiful and elegant clothes, all the people pretended to see the clothes. “People want to be engaged if they are engaged”wrote Renaissance scholar Carlo Carafa and rulers wanted to see and share the illusion that all was well, a typical phrase: “no pasa nada”.
The mayor is not always right, in many cases the mayor’s opinion is a force and power that cannot be challenged, it is not necessarily true, not if it is verified to be correct, if it is blindly accepted, if it goes with the flow. Truth is not truth only for the one who thinks it or creates it in the whole world. In the story, they were all fools who pretended to be at the crossroads to appear intelligent, outnumbered.
The emperor walked his fictitious way, without embargo, some wanted to break through with a lie, among the crowd less daring: “The Emperor must be shut down, he will take nothing!“, some tried to silence the unpleasant child’s voice, the teacher exclaimed with strength and firmness: “The boy is right, the emperor is naked!” people rushed out of the way to free themselves what they say The songs and jokes began: “¡No lleva nada!”, “¡va desnudo!”they started telling the truth, after all, a human being cannot stop being irrational.
The emperor was troubled, he felt fear and shame – at that time politicians knew shame -, he thought that the people were right, without embargo, he bristled, he was arrogant, he grew in arrogance, and the chamberlains continued to carry the non-existent burden of traje.
Yes, the people were right, but the emperor was wrong, because the people shouted, they did not listen to his voices. He was watching a fashion show, everyone was stupid because they didn’t see the beautiful look he was wearing, he was the smart one. It is unforgivable for a monarch to have an ambiguous perception of reality, because it has to be seen from different angles, even if it is not visible from the tower of the palace as much as from the common hall.
The safety, arrogance, and authority of the emperor caused many to follow me, believing that I was clothed, when in fact I was naked, thus anesthetized and inert, they followed. At the end, the piece just appears.
Are you a jerk? They took money, pleasures, cloths and all the material they needed for the trip, they sold a luxury house, an investigation is said to have been launched, no one has been arrested, will it be impunity? Cuídese de los pretends to be “sastres”.
“Why didn’t people see that the emperor was not wearing clothes?” the boy asked his teacher.
The teacher mentioned Umberto Eco and answered: “I often realize that global warming is making people’s evenings worse”.
Yes teacher, it’s time for people to lose sleepsay el niño If they held hands and walked together, they did not wait for the final discussions.
