The journalist Cristian Tudor Popescu spoke on Digi24’s Cap Limpede program about those responsible for the huge number of infections with the new coronavirus in recent days, but also those who died from Covid-19. The journalist considers that people who refuse to wear a mask or comply with the rules that restrict the spread are “blind criminals.” Citing an extract written by the philosopher Albert Camus, the journalist says that “the main cause of what is happening to us is ignorance (…) I don’t think these people really know those around them. They don’t know their wife, they don’t know their husband, they don’t really know their children and they have never really been interested in knowing them. It is not possible, and I believe it, to truly love in ignorance. If you are in the dark and you stay there and you want to stay in the dark, then you cannot love and you cannot be good.”.
Cristian Tudor Popescu: Last time I read an excerpt from Ion Desideriu Sârbu, a great Romanian writer. It said that I will speak on behalf of the dead in each program, today I will read another passage that sounds like this, in fact, it is an ranswer to the question: Why do avalanches grow, why do thousands of infections come to us and more and more people die in ATI ?: „REvil in the world is almost always caused by ignorance, and benevolence, if it comes from darkness, can produce both misfortune and ill will. People are good more than bad, but that’s not the point. They are more or less ignorant and that is what is called vice or virtue, the most terrible vice being ignorance that thinks it knows everything. And, as a result, he gives himself the only permission to kill. The murderer’s soul is blind, and there is no true goodness or true love without the highest degree of clarity to see things, “Albert Camus.”The plague”.
The main cause of what happens to us is ignorance, that is, not only not knowing, but also wanting not to know. That means you are ignoring something. I don’t know and I don’t want to know. Therefore, people who do not take into account now what is repeated to them do not know how many times a day, at all levels: mask, physical distance, disinfection. I also don’t think these people really know those around them. You don’t know your wife, you don’t know your husband, you don’t really know your children and you have never really been interested in knowing them. This is what Camus says here, he says something extraordinary: “Goodness that comes from darkness can do as much damage as bad faith.” It is not possible, and I believe it, to truly love in ignorance. If you are in the dark and you stay there and you want to stay in the dark, then you cannot love and you cannot be good.
This is what we face, people who don’t know, don’t want to know, “I don’t care” Not to know, I do not think. And the gripOh, I’m not interested. “Every one of these people is a blind murderer. I mean, every one of those who die now in hospitals is killed by one or two or three of us. Blind criminals. Because they don’t want to be lucid, they do not want to know, they do not want to know and therefore they are not capable of loving, they cannot care about others.
Claudiu Pîndaru: Can such a man be changed?
Cristian Tudor Popescu: Thirty years ago, I nurtured this hope, which I now consider stupid, to change people. Somehow it reminded me of my communist party, I was a communist until I was 12, then I left the Communist Party at 12 years old. And I was left with this obsession of the man who can be changed.
I convinced myself in recent years that it was stupid. People cannot be changed even after 12 years of age, when we stop being children, as Brâncuși said, games are made. Personality is formed at its core and those fundamental coordinates can no longer be changed, at least that is what I found. I tried and banged my head against the wall until it snapped.
Now one man can kill many.
Claudiu Pîndaru: So what is the solution? If you can’t change the man, the information campaigns, those speeches at all levels that you were talking about, from morning to night, will not change these people.
Cristian Tudor Popescu: The solution is coercion. Restriction. Undercover policemen, in plain clothes, walking among people and seeing individuals who want to kill people without a mask.
Claudiu Pîndaru: A good solution?
Yes! Of course it is very good. But what does he have? What happens? The police must prevent murder, that is the job of the police. These people who walk without a mask, who at this moment no longer respect distance, who do not disinfect themselves, etc., are blind criminals. Dr Musta from Timisoara said that right now, because of these dire numbers, anyone we get close to is a potential polluter. A person who can make us sick. We are about, says Dr. Musta, to start killing people at home, at home because they will have nowhere to go.
We should wear a mask, to understand what, for example, Mr. Buzatu de Vaslui does not understand. Mr. Buzatu says “I’m not interested, I don’t wear a mask because I don’t feel like it protects me. I don’t care. “Okay, but this normal mask, this mask protects others, first of all, from their emissions. And then you. That person and so many others like him do not think. They think,”SUBWAYShe is interested in me. What do I have to do with the one next to me? I do not careOthers say “I have a good gene, I have immunity and I take another hardener.” These are blind criminals and now that the probability of infection has increased so much, they themselves are becoming more and more effective.
Claudiu Pîndaru: You said that you think it is a very good solution related to plainclothes police officers to observe and punish.
Cristian Tudor Popescu: And very good. With large sums. If there is no conscience, if there is no empathy, if there is no humanity, then there are fines. Big.
Claudiu Pîndaru: But there are people who do not agree with you.
Cristian Tudor Popescu: WHO? People’s House lawyer? Yes. Well, I would have been surprised. I told you now a series of programs, I was telling you, this lady brings Satan. Vase in these conditions, which we all see, death begins to lurk at every step, this lady is still unscrupulous, she continues to put sticks in the wheels, this is what she did from the beginning, that is what they gave her Depending on: “MEWe try to put a stick in the wheels of our political opponents, directly to those in the government, of course, unscrupulous. No matter how many people die, what happens, you put them on the wheelmeAnd that is what he is doing now, with this request that the policemen wear uniforms. He still needs to ask to shout that 150 years ago, the Christmas carols of Bucharest, periodically shout „I see you! I see you!“, so they had it in the job description, that the thief would escape when the carter yelled at him. So I’m not surprised he gets it right, he’ll do even more.
