Arrests seem to make the best impression on the local population. Any information of this kind immediately activates a winning impulse in people. Again, how come, there is almost no DPS official whom one of the citizens, at least once, did not think deserved prison (which is also an interesting story), as soon as the "arrest" happens, people believe that they are getting not only a clear sign of changes, but and confirmation of his own prophetic powers. And in that matter - it was certainly not difficult to prophesy.
Arrests later, for the most part, turn into informative interviews, the arrested walk home, but the first shock wave of information has already done its job. Razor-marketing has its legalities, but it is certain, of limited effect. Media games like this, above all, cannot for too long be a substitute for a comprehensive real impact on society, which is expected from a government, such as it is. Police letters? It used to be purely a joke category.
A psychological profile no younger than the early XNUMXth century, plus the most hideous postmodern demagoguery. The two, in a miraculous way, are united by one public statement - a letter from an influential police officer to the minister who intends to ask for his resignation.
That letter is one of the most primitive public performances in recent times on a stage that is otherwise teeming with primitivism. In short, when the man realized that he was leaving office, he decided that it would be in the style of a Sam Peckinpo film, that is, extremely impressive. He wrote a letter to the minister. Better not. It's been a long time since a public appearance has turned out to be such a successful self-portrait.
Primary primitivism is not that interesting: macho stretching and nothing else. The policeman, as it were, gives the minister a moral lesson from the position of a grown man. And the minister is, as it goes in that rhetorical version, "green" and still "unfulfilled, family and professionally". There is also classic machismo rhetoric: "The minister does not have the courage to order me as an elder..." As expected, which is to say so Montenegrin and corrupt. To be heard far away - when the jefferdar shoots...
However, the most interesting layer of this letter is its explicitly anti-female intonation. Recently, we had a young politician who spouted similar nonsense, but he responded to public criticism, apologized, and surely, next time he will think carefully when gender stereotypes ring in his head.
From the ill-fated letter, one gets the impression that the most difficult thing for the police officer was that the minister sent him the resignation letter - through his wife.
And there is an extra bonus, a song at the end. Signed as - “verse of our ancestors”? Listen to the words of your ancestors: "It's hard for the place where the kuđelja žeferdar judges, where women are better than men".
Jefferdar and kuđelja? Behind these dubious male-female metonymies of the famous policeman there is nothing but anti-female clichés. And fundamental primitivism, but I must have already said that.
In short - this is a scandal of the first order. Where there is society and the public. Even if we don't know anything about the professional work of this anthropological relic, this kind of anti-women public attitude is quite enough reason for an express resignation, whether the minister in charge asked for it or not.
When you see that such drastically anachronistic consciousness plays an important role on the Montenegrin political scene in the XNUMXst century, then nothing can surprise you anymore. Let's say, in the age of the pandemic, the expected vaccination that looks like that of Andrić's Jelena, the "woman who doesn't exist", health challenges like you can't remember... isn't the biggest success of Montenegrin healthcare the return of a Kosovar girl to the emergency room?
The land of jefferdar and kuđelja is also getting a Ferris wheel. The panoramic view must extend exclusively to the glorious past, so it doesn't matter that the wheel is surrounded by huge buildings.
