Miguel Óscar Aparicio criticizes political hostility and degradation of debate

Miguel Óscar Aparicio has expressed deep concern regarding the current state of political discourse, specifically addressing the normalization of insults and humiliation in public debates. He argues that treating insults as a sign of character or viewing the willingness to listen to opposing views as a weakness undermines democratic foundations.

Aparicio specifically criticized segments of the right wing that allow the far-right to set the political tone while attempting to maintain a moderate image. He stated that true moderation requires setting limits on allies, even at a political cost, and warned against using fear and suspicion to divide citizens. He emphasized that democratic coexistence requires respect and that no single party owns the nation.
