Idolaters and idolatry have nothing to do with democracy!
Is it normal for a party that claims to have brought democracy to have the same leader even after 36 years?
Not at all!
Either he didn't bring democracy, or he never understood what it is.
Democracy is not about changing governments, aging militants, leaving founders, graying voters, diminishing hopes, while the president remains there like a bronze bust; like an idol; like a totem. Or like a political relic that no one lets touch even though the party may have collapsed, fragmented, shrunk, or turned into a sect.
Democracy begins precisely where the party is not usurped and where, by statute, even though it may be painful for some, the "eternal leader" is removed. Democracy begins where the party is not treated as private property, the seal is not inherited by deed, and the militants do not behave like soldiers before a political "leader".
In normal democracies, leaders change, because ideas wear out, people make mistakes, and time moves on. Only in regimes, sects, or parties built on the cult of the individual is the leader treated as the owner of the seal, the logo, and the fate of the militants.
The biggest mockery lies in the fact that they talk about pluralism every day, but within the party they are autocrats, they do not tolerate even pluralism of thought or speech. Anyone who speaks or thinks differently is excluded, declared a traitor, a sellout, an enemy or an infiltrator, connected to the underworld, despite the fact that they have no facts and the "enemies" have never crossed paths with the opponent.
A full 36 years with the same leader is not democracy. It is a history of political dependence and political mummification. It is a nostalgic asylum for people who still live with the year 1990 in their heads and with the fear that without the "historical leader" the party will fall apart like a hut without beams.
Proof that the party did not build institutions, but invested in followers. It did not create competition, but obedience; it did not produce an elite, but courtiers. It is proof that after 36 years they failed to produce a single figure to replace the eternal old man of politics.
It's unfortunate that a party that shouts every day that it brought pluralism only knows one name, one voice, one stamp, and one nerve.
It is unfortunate that the eternal leader of idolaters calls his opponents dictators and autocrats, while he himself behaves like a tribal leader who does not relinquish his throne even when the party burns, falls apart, or is reduced to a crowd of militants who defend a man and not an idea.
In December 1990 we rose up against the cult of the individual. Today in 2026, the cult of the individual again. The party loses, the elections lose, the citizens lose, hope is lost, while the president remains there with the most ridiculous justifications, because no one dares to throw it out, for fear of breaking the myth; it remains there, because the political opponent has also invested in this myth to use it as a gimmick to mobilize his electorate and destroy it again in the elections; use it as an alibi to cover up corruption and misgovernment in these 13 years.
In normal countries with normal democracies, leaders leave when they lose.
Not in the DP!
The referendum for reconfirmation in Berisha's Party as a process is their business. They want Berisha, let them keep Berisha.
The attempt to present it as democracy, to impose it on us as right and necessary, to justify it as the only and right one, is disgusting and insulting to our intelligence. It may only be of value to some military men, but it harms the Albanian opposition and Albania!
A party with a lifelong leader is not a democratic party, but a sect with a logo.
PS : This is the last time I write and deal with the party that I once founded and was usurped in 1991 by the same man who continues to lead it today!
