Please, Mr. Babiš graced us with the information that he is sufficiently wealthy and therefore does not need to steal. Coincidentally, this is the same narrative that retirees used to share among themselves in chain messages at a time when even Andrej Babiš did not yet know that he wanted to enter politics. And I think that the whole idea is fundamentally nonsense. It is information that is objectively correct, but it does not describe the problem as it really is. Andrej Babiš really does not need more money. Sure, we have the scandals around subsidies and the use of Agrofert, which his critics have long attacked as privileging a large holding at the expense of smaller players. But all of this is just a facade. What Andrej Babiš truly desires is power. To prove not only to himself but also to his surroundings what can be bent, and what cannot be bent; what can be broken. Ideally, without consequences. Andrej Burešuje simply because he can. Do you remember the episode of The Simpsons in which Mr. Burns blocks the sun over Springfield and then also steals a lollipop from Maggie? Not because he needed the lollipop. Because real power does not begin at the moment when you can take what you need. It begins at the moment when you can take even what you do not need at all, just to show everyone that no one can stop you. And this is exactly what this argument of "I am rich, I do not need to steal" is not about at all. #Parzival #AndrejBabiš #politika #moc (translated)
