We do not need Balkanleaks.eu

It is a hot political life before elections in Bulgaria and as usual a salty compromate is published about Bojko Borisov, the current Prime Minister of Bulgaria. It is distributed everywhere and Bulgaria looks like in later 20th century – a country of ordinary people working hard and a segment of politicians and intellectuals (mostly in Sofia) who have been spending more time for intrigues and compromates than for their duties. Yes, but there was 1989 when an ocean of blue flags called for changes. However, who to make the changing in thinking of people if those intellectuals are the same or their social descendants are like them, even more involved in intrigues, corruptions and crime? Seeds of this poison atmosphere some have been trying to distribute even over the ocean through institutional collaborations, for instance.

Balkanleaks.eu believes that helps democracy by revealing black trues about people. The problem is that somehow it is again about Boiko Borisov, but not about the socialist Sergej Stanishev, for instance. Then, in comes in mind that Dimitar Ivanov shared online how former communists signed for authorities to try to remove somebody from a high leading position. When the author became post-graduate student in later 1980s not only police was sent at her home but rumors were distributed that she signed the director. Nobody was interested in true evidence. Most important is you to become black.

Reasonably, today we ask: Who is actually black? Beyond biological races, there are “social races” and many really get black colors within the years – some with their own activities, others have been painted by black people just to become like them. This is not the world about. The world is we all to be from one only social race – white. Balkanleak.eu does not help anybody.

Balkan countries are with heavy damages from the communist regimes and such website is not the way to remake social life there. Everybody should be responsible for what has been doing. If one wants black color to come out for somebody and does not want to anchor his/her name to this discovery, there are attorneys who can help. Also, such compromates usually attempt not to tell the truth but to cover something very dangerous for society. It is like redirecting of the attention.

Bojko Borisov is not the ideal of humanity, but a stage when we can be traced the road of dreaming humanity. What was his past is important or historians, although now is important what he has been doing as the Prime Minister of Bulgaria. If there is really evidence for criminal activities for sure somebody can write a book for a million with such data. Compomates do not help society. They are slanders which everybody should avoid as a social practice since slanders make society sick, and when society is sick, we, its members, also become sick. The 21st century is however about healthy society and healthy members of society.

There is Cyber crime center in Draper, Utah and everybody expect this center to make a revolution – from our e-mail inbox to the offices and institutions which are full with electronic slanders everywhere. But first the lawmakers need again to find time and to help the society to get rid of websites like balkanleaks.eu, spam e-mails and ugly ads. We need to be responsible for what we have been doing. Anonymity is not a white color for painting in our society at all. The social life should be like the nature – beautiful and with place for everybody to feel nice and happy. To reveal the truth helps in happiness but only when there is responsibility involved.
