Quando a política passa a ter características de uma religião

in lula •  6 years ago  (edited)

Dizem que religião e política são os dois lados da mesma moeda. Mas o curioso é que às vezes elas duas se tornam mais que isso, e parecem ser o mesmo lado da mesma moeda. Se tornam idênticas nas suas características principais.

E porque eu digo isso? Porque a religião é baseada em dogmas de fé, que nem sempre podem ser concluída a sua veracidade ou não usando apenas a razão e a lógica. Então se diz que uma das principais diferenças entre religião e política é que a primeira é dogmática e a segunda racional.

Mas tomemos por exemplo o Lulismo, ou seja, os seguidores fiéis do ex presidente Lula. Um caso bem curioso que ilustra onde quero chegar é esse debate que aconteceu na internet que reproduzo abaixo pois achei bem interessante:

Este comentário foi postado por um adepto do Lula para o seu amigo que é contra:

"Vocês nos acusam de idolatrar o Lula mas os obcecados por ele são vocês. Dizem que querem todo corrupto na cadeia mas é só dele que falam. Ouçam o foguetório e o buzinaço pela sua prisão. Isso jamais aconteceria em uma condenação do Aécio, do Temer, do FHC. Lula protagonizou o grande espetáculo desta noite de sábado em todas as mídias. Vocês jamais agiriam assim se o político fosse outro. Tudo isso é prova do quanto Lula está sendo perseguido e injustiçado".

A resposta do amigo:

"Aproveito, portanto, essa boa oportunidade para responder ao meu amigo e tentar discorrer sobre essas questões de uma forma mais abrangente.

Sim, meu caro amigo, somos obcecados pelo Lula.
Não soltaríamos mesmo tantos foguetes e nem sairíamos tanto às ruas se o personagem fosse diferente, mesmo que igualmente corrupto. Não faríamos tantos textos no Facebook, nem tão contundentes. Também não ficaríamos tantas horas frente à TV esperando o simples cumprimento de um mandato judicial. Nossas atitudes definitivamente seriam diferentes se os envolvidos fossem outros.

Entretanto, você ainda não entendeu que a razão do nosso comportamento confessamente parcial não é o Lula. A razão, caro amigo, é você.
Sim, você e todos os seus companheiros de seita que veneram uma pessoa como se um deus fosse. Que não admitem, nem por um milésimo de segundo, a mera possibilidade de que o tal deus tenha praticado qualquer ilícito ao longo de sua vida. Mesmo com seu governo envolvido em esquemas de corrupção bilionários, vocês afirmam categoricamente que ele não tinha conhecimento de nada. Não adiantam as delações, fotografias, documentos, provas, nada.
Nada é capaz de mudar sua visão. Como podem seguir alguém tão cegamente, sem pensar, sem raciocinar, quase como zumbis? E quem dera vocês fossem poucos. Não haveriam motivos para preocupações. Mas vocês compõem uma parcela considerável da sociedade. Estão muito longe da maioria que propagam ser mas, ainda assim, são barulhentos e numerosos. E sabe o que é pior? Vocês votam.
Não, não se trata de preconceito. É um fato.
Vocês certamente votariam no Lula novamente se pudessem.
Esse é o grande risco, entende?

Apenas para tentar ser o mais claro possível, tomemos como exemplo o Aécio, que considero um corrupto, delinquente, marginal, um bandido profissional. Sei que você concorda comigo. E aqui poderia ser o Temer, o Cunha, o Jucá, qualquer um. Você sabe qual é a chance do Aécio ser eleito presidente? Zero. Você sabe quantas pessoas se colocariam na frente da polícia para tentar impedir uma eventual prisão dele? Zero. Você sabe quantos eleitores o chamariam de injustiçado, de perseguido, de guerreiro do povo brasileiro? Zero. Por isso, meu amigo, torço demais para que o Aécio e todos os demais façam companhia ao Lula o mais rapidamente possível, mas a verdade é que Aécio, por mais mau caráter que seja, não representa um perigo iminente para o país. Você sabe que, quando um grande perigo é afastado, é normal que as pessoas comemorem mais efusivamente do que quando um risco insignificante deixa de existir. É isso que está acontecendo agora. Lula é um grande perigo. E Lula é um grande perigo, caro amigo, simplesmente porque você existe para defendê-lo!"

Achei a resposta do amigo bem genial. E se coaduna com a ideia que quero chegar nesse tópico. Ou seja, sempre que a política vira uma coisa fanática, cega, onde não importam as evidências, a lógica, a razão, mas vira algo puramente emotivo e maniqueísta, do nós contra eles, nós o bem contra eles o mal. Ai sim, nesse caso podemos dizer que a política ganha todos os contornos de uma verdadeira religião secular.
