Values and Anti-Values in Politics

Politics and ethical and moral values ​​are concepts so connected with each other that one should never be separated from the other; however, for many years, this is very, very far from being a reality. 

Our governors have to be the people´s example of showing the values and morals we should have. But talking about politics today is the same as talking about evil, dishonesty, injustice, irresponsibility, disrespect, betrayal, insecurity, and even hatred. 

An example of a bad governor is Donald Trump, he legitimized anti-values ​​such as sexism and xenophobia, during different occasions like riots, discrimination of race at the moment of justice, etc. I think this is a great example of how an inadequate politician can affect the entire country, there are more violations, deportations, gunfires, hate between people. It is something people should start raising their voices about 

“When you are a star, they (women) let you do it. You can do whatever you want ” Donald Trump, 2005. This is one of the hundreds of misogynous things he has said, if we are talking about anti-values, here is a huge example on how a president should not talk about, even more, do not think in that way, because on the way you talk is the way you are and this is not an example of following that we want a country to be.

This is only one example of hundreds of politicians that rule in an unfair way, there are fair politicians too, but the unpleasant ones are bigger in number and are the ones that destroy our countries. I think people should continue raising their voices as they had been doing until the government starts taking care of our problems and changing the things that are unfair and dishonest.
