pasado, y que  est\u00e1n pasando, pues desde luego la conclusi\u00f3n es l\u00f3gica: estamos en  medio de la iniciativa m\u00e1s audaz, por lo menos desde la insurrecci\u00f3n, de  los

tablas y que llegando a las plazas se hicieran unos templetes. \u00a0Conforme  se iba narrando lo que suced\u00eda, muchos medios privados, y algunos de  los libres, especulaban sobre la llegada de los l\u00edderes zapatistas. \u00a0Y  no se daban cuenta que los l\u00edderes zapatistas estaban ya ah\u00ed. \u00a0Que eran  los pueblos que se sub\u00edan al templete y dec\u00edan, sin hablar, aqu\u00ed  estamos, estos somos, estos seremos.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> <\/em><em> El  templete les toc\u00f3 a los que les debe tocar. \u00a0Nadie ha reparado, creo yo,  en ese hecho y, sin embargo, creo yo, ah\u00ed est\u00e1, en una nuez, el  significado profundo de una nueva forma de hacer pol\u00edtica. \u00a0Lo que rompe  con todo lo viejo, lo \u00fanico verdaderamente nuevo, lo \u00fanico que

Compas.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(\u2026)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>My opinion is that everything was really fucking cool. \u00a0But I do  not deny that all of this is in retrospective. \u00a0It would be very easy to  say that I perfectly understood the silence and nothing surprised me.  \u00a0False, I also became impatient with the silence (of course that has  nothing to do with what is said about how before the Zapatistas weren\u2019t  speaking, I did read all of the denouncements).[2] \u00a0The issue is that  when seen with the advantage of what has already happened, and what is  happening, well, of course the conclusion is logical: we are in the  middle of a more daring initiative, at least since the Zapatistas\u2019  insurrection. \u00a0And this has to do with everything, not just with the  national situation but also with the international situation, I believe.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> <\/em><em>Let me tell you what I understood about something which,  it seemed to me, was the most significant moment of the [December 21,  2012] action. \u00a0Of course there are many things: the organization, the  militant strength, the show of force, the presence of young people and  women, etc. \u00a0But what really impressed me the most was that they were  carrying some boards and that when they arrived at the plazas they made  some stages. \u00a0According to what was said about what went on, many  private media outlets, and some of the independent ones, speculated  about the arrival of the Zapatista leaders. \u00a0They didn\u2019t realize that  the Zapatista leaders were already there. \u00a0They were the people who got  up onto the stage and said, without speaking, here we are, this is who  we are and this is who we will be.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Those who should have been on the stage were there. \u00a0Nobody has  noticed, I think, that moment and, nonetheless, I think, there it is, in  a nutshell, the profound significance of a new way of doing politics.  \u00a0That which breaks with all that is old, the only truly new, the only  thing that is worth having [illegible in the original] \u201cXXI century.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The plebeian and freedom-loving soul of those timely moments in  history, has been built here without theoretical grandstanding. \u00a0Rather,  with a practical burying. \u00a0It has been there for too many years to be  just a fancy. \u00a0It is already a long and solid historical social process  in the terrain of self-organization.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>At the end they picked up their stage, turned it once again into  boards, and we should all be a little ashamed and be more modest and  simple and recognize that something unexpected and new is in front of  our eyes and that we should look, shut up, listen, and learn.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Hugs all around. \u00a0I hope that you\u2019re all right, all things considered.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>El Chueco [Crooked]\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:

towel, a  new ideological paradigm, etc.).<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So\u2026<\/p>\n<p>First. \u2013 Rule out if it was a degenerate man or woman. \u00a0You can be as  dirty, ugly, bad, rude, as you want, but, whatever it is, you have this  sexy and horny touch that comes from working really hard; and that  \u201cthat\u201d can awaken anyone\u2019s most carnal passions. \u00a0Mmm\u2026 well, yes, a  little hairstyling wouldn\u2019t be too much. \u00a0If it wasn\u2019t a degenerate man  or woman, don\u2019t lose heart, the world is round and it spins, and see  below (this list, understand).<\/p>\n<p>Second.- Are you sure that he is looking at you? \u00a0Couldn\u2019t it be that  deodorant ad that was behind you (you, understand)? \u00a0Or could it be  that he\u2019s thinking (him, the one that\u2019s looking at you, understand): \u201cI  think that\u2019s how I look when I don\u2019t comb my hair\u201d? \u00a0If you have ruled  that out, continue.<\/p>\n<p>Third.- Doesn\u2019t he look like a cop looking to complete the payment  that he has to report to his superior? \u00a0If yes, run, there\u2019s still time  to not lose the cost of the ticket. \u00a0If not, go on to the next point.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth.- Return his gaze, fiercely. \u00a0A gaze that\u2019s a mix of anger,  stomach ache, annoyance, and the \u201clook\u201d of a serial killer will work.  \u00a0No, that makes you look like a constipated bear cub. \u00a0Try again. \u00a0Ok,  passable, but keep practicing. \u00a0Now, he doesn\u2019t flee terrified? \u00a0He  doesn\u2019t divert his gaze? \u00a0He doesn\u2019t get closer to you exclaiming,  \u201cuncle juancho! \u00a0I didn\u2019t recognize you! \u00a0But with that gesture\u2026\u201d? \u00a0No?  \u00a0Ok, continue.<\/p>\n<p>Fifth. \u2013 Repeat the first, second, third, and fourth steps. \u00a0There  could be problems with our system (which, of course, is made in China).  \u00a0If you come back to this point again, go on to the next
