- Description: “The real danger isn’t corruption — it’s how ‘normal’ we now consider it. A society that elects the same criminal twice has already turned irresponsibility into a civic virtue.”

## The Metastasis of Impunity

The most disturbing feature of our age is not corruption itself, but the collective acceptance of it. When a society elects the same criminal twice, it has already elevated irresponsibility to the rank of a public virtue. 

This is not an American anomaly. Italy, Spain, and much of Europe mirror the same pathology: the illusion that criminality, once institutionalized, might somehow deliver national salvation. It is the collapse of ethics — not the rise of crime — that marks the true turning point. 

We are living within a metastasis of impunity, and we insist on calling it democracy.
