POLITICS BLOG

 hello dear reader! In today's blog I will talk about education. For me, a quality education is the basis of a functional society, because it provides tools for all areas of life.  Having said that, I will proceed to talk about my experience. I believe that although I had a quality education in academic areas, my school experience was not very pleasant.  I studied in a traditional Catholic school, where Christian morality and the impositions of political correctness determined everything.  Talking with other classmates, we came to the conclusion that so many moral impositions were detrimental to the development of our identity, and that perhaps a less imposing type of education would have been better for us. I am not saying that this type of educational model is bad, but perhaps it is time to modify it and evolve it to the current times, in which children's identity is important.  What I am sure of, is that it is necessary for the educational model to consider c...

 hello dear readers! In today's blog I would like to talk about antispeciesism, because it is a topic that interests me and is part of my identity.  Antispeciesism is just as the name says, being against speciesism, which refers to a form of discrimination based on species membership. It involves treating members of one species as morally more important than members of other species, even if their interests are equivalent.  Therefore, antispeciesism consists of not using nonhuman animals for the benefit of human interests. It is also linked to veganism, but it is bigger than that. Because eating animals is just a way of exploiting them, and we must be against all forms of exploitation.  For me, it makes sense to be an antispeciesist because before this I was against all forms of human oppression and I discovered that it made no sense to be the one exploiting another animal. Animal exploitation is genuinely capitalist and therefore anyone who stands against it should ...

  hello dear readers! I hope you are well.  Today's blog topic is religion, I will give my opinion about it based on my personal experience. I studied fourteen years in a Catholic school, which totally alienated me from this religion. I felt that the most important thing they preached were limiting beliefs, which forced you to act in a certain way, and if you didn't do it there was "sin" so that you don't get out of the way.  This year, I did an interview at the Bahai temple and learned about their beliefs, which unlike what I learned in school, had no rules or doctrines. For the Bahaists the most important thing was faith and world peace, they believe that traditional religions separate with their rituals, so they believe in the great religion that brings them all together in the concept of love.  Although I found their principles coherent, I did not feel convinced enough to join this religion. I believe that all religions intersect in faith, and that is why they...

 hello, dear reader in this blog i will talk about in this blog I am going to talk about the health system in chile. To begin with, my mom works in the public mental health system and she has told me about how difficult it is to do her job with such a small budget.  There are too few professionals for the amount of patients, that's why people can have only one psychological session in several months and it lasts only 30 minutes. In such a short time and with so few sessions the psychologists cannot do their job, so many times the patients get worse and there is no space to admit them.  On the other hand, in the private system it is possible to have several sessions per week that last one hour, but the cost is unaffordable for most Chileans.  The health system is a faithful representation of inequality in Chile, and it is necessary that governments and municipalities invest in public health and its workers to change things.
