Yes, our country has entered this year, not with a new language and new desires, for example, for more light and more knowledge, for bright and wise works, as humanity wishes, but with a linguistic and mental poverty that brutally appears in everyday life and makes you realize that our people will once again watch the rerun of a disgusting show.

Today, our country is facing an energy crisis, that is, a lack of electricity, but the real crisis is not this: the real crisis that is screaming among us is the crisis of the light of knowledge, or more precisely, the crisis of the thirst for knowledge, which we have extinguished, replacing with low standards and sterile slogans, a poor language, which has plagued everywhere, which disturbs a sensitive and normal person even if he were to hear it on the other side of the world, no longer in his own country.
And after a bad year, our country has started a new year, without any ideals, with a bad political legacy, which has been renewed with blind popular faith, in the name of some nationalist pseudo-standards.
Indeed, these pseudo-standards have eroded our state for five years, have depreciated the engine that maintains society - dialogue - and have put the country under sanctions, darkening and isolating it from the entire normal world.
And worst of all, these pseudo-standards have contributed to the deterioration of the health of our society, which is fragile in political matters and has a bad legacy due to its mentality and history.
Does our country have an ideal today?
I say no, and this no is best proven by the poor political language that we hear and read every day, a language that proposes nothing and aspires to nothing, a language that does not even exceed the minimum standards of public use. This language, surely, has no capacity to produce any good fruit for the people of this country, except to maintain the high flags of ignorance and arrogance that are planted and wave everywhere among us.
Language creates barriers and language removes barriers.
It is known that by destroying the engine that keeps democracy, and consequently human society, alive – dialogue – societies risk committing political suicide.
This danger is on the threshold of our common home, our country, and as such, it is more frightening than all other dangers that may come from external enemies.
Yes, our country has entered this year, not with a new language and new desires, for example, for more light and more knowledge, for bright and wise works, as humanity wishes, but with a linguistic and mental poverty that brutally appears in everyday life and makes you realize that our people will once again watch the rerun of a disgusting show.
This language may sound pleasant and accessible to the masses who cherish sensual feelings for leaders, and certainly convenient for those who milk the rich electoral cow, but it is very harmful to the health of the country, and I fear that it will be irreparable, because as is known, political damage, in fragile societies like ours, happens to be inherited from generation to generation. And for this, few peoples on our continent have as much evidence as we have as a nation.
That we are the worst of ourselves, our wise men have advised, who, every time we have listened to them, have helped us to take off the heavy clothes of slavery and put on the beautiful clothes of freedom, and walk the path of light, side by side with civilized peoples.
Yes, darkness reigns in Kosovo today. There is no electricity, but the most tragic thing is that there are no bright thoughts. There are dark thoughts.
And so, our country, once a regional champion of great Western democratic ideas and ideals, is sinking into obscurity.
In all this stagnation, I see many creators, intellectuals, tied or self-tied to the rope of power, who lustfully compare one darkness with another darkness or one evil with another evil. This is the most harmful and disgusting category that maintains social evil.
