An ordinary social network user who is far from politics comes across the word “boycott” almost from the day the election date is announced. As the days pass, this word gradually moves to the “foreground” and even succeeds to the “headline” status of some articles. Western “screenwriters” have been using this classical technological method in different countries for many years in their interests. To put it simply, announcing a boycott around any election is the first stage of provocative scenarios. It seems that there is a need for a widespread understanding that it is simply a type of “dirty” political technology that serves ulterior motives, avoiding complex theories. Because it should be clear to everyone that the “boycott” is not a demonstration of a principled position, it is a political trick that leads directly to provocations.
These ideas are included in the article entitled “Games of subversion: “dirty” political technologies are already working” by political scientist A. Adil. SIA presents the article.
It is an objective fact that President, Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev today has no alternative even theoretically. Even the “greatest friends” of our country have to admit this fact. However, we must note with regret that due to the current trends in the international relations system and the presence of someone’s endless geopolitical “appetites”, there may be a potential threat of disruption of internal political stability for each country. Of course, the powers that are more and more afraid of losing their ability to intervene in our country and the region as a whole will not easily give up their insidious intentions. For this reason, they see the election process as a universal opportunity for provocations. In order not to become a toy in someone’s hands, every citizen should know some simple truths and maintain his vigilance.
Let’s pay attention to the other statements of Shivan politicians about the elections, which, to put it mildly, cause a smile: “The elections were announced suddenly, we are not ready.” The question arises: did the 30-year period of opposition and the activities of the past years not teach these evil-politicians anything? No ideological depth, no accomplishments, no reputation, no success stories, no public sympathies, no intellectual potential, no loyal electorates, no and no! So what are they? In fact, the answer is obvious: instead, they have bitterness, hatred, an incompleteness complex, treachery, a desire to sow seeds of doubt among society, and other such desires and desires that darken the public consciousness. They have never had the intention of serving the development of society and national solidarity. These evil-politicians have always pursued goals such as serving the interests of someone, benefiting from grant projects and creating discord in the society.
Election is the only legitimate means of competition in terms of demonstrating knowledge and skills for a politician who intends to have a potential and healthy competition. Therefore, an “ambitious” person who refuses this opportunity to compete in politics not only admits his weakness, but also hides it under the cover of “boycott”. Such shopkeeper-politicians participate in political relations only for manipulations. Of course, those who refuse to participate in the elections turn their backs on their partners. In short, “boycott” also causes their moral defeat.
Even such a brief excursus exposes the next main goals facing the political technology called “boycott”: forming informational excuses at various levels for biased provocations; create artificial “opportunities” for biased criticism of the government; achieving emotional tension by “camouflaging” one’s own weakness; creating international information agitation around the elections and basically creating new reasons to continue the provocations in the post-election period. Once again, we can note with full responsibility that, in fact, “boycott” is a technology for “dirty” purposes, such as increasing emotional tension and bringing people to the streets. This is the truth, this is the strategic purpose of the political technology called “boycott”. Although it is a repetition, we must clearly emphasize once again that for the political technologists and “scenarios” of the West, the “provocations” related to the “boycott” election are only the first act of the play.
In order to understand the nature of “Boycott”, let us present to your attention one more domestic comparison. If a person invited to the wedding wants to create a scandal or a certain tension in the relationship, he definitely declares that he will not participate in the ceremony long before the wedding by various means. The more noisy the “statements” will be, the more rumors, gossip and rumors will circulate around the meeting. In political relations, the “boycott” technology is designed for the same socio-psychological effect.
Yes, the technologists of the West are experienced and their tricks have produced results that have harmed people in many countries. However, they forgot that “boycotting” elections in Azerbaijan means throwing in the towel. The exposure of “dirty” political technologies continues…
