Introduction
As 2025 concludes, Mexico and other oppressed nations grapple with the dominance of destruction, opacity, corruption, and violence. This article evaluates the year’s progress, frustrations, and losses, acknowledging that numerous Mexicans, despite their efforts, have failed to meet personal goals due to the challenging circumstances in the country, exacerbated by the ruling regime.
Impact of Violence and Insecurity
Violence, inadequate public services, and insecurity have claimed lives, homes, livelihoods, and hopes from countless families. The erosion of security and the rule of law has transformed the festive atmosphere that once characterized Mexican homes into despair, fear, and even death.
Unemployment and Economic Instability
Thousands of families face an uncertain future, including those who have lost formal jobs as workers in autonomous bodies (dismantled by the ruling regime), judges displaced by the judicial reform, farmers, and transportation workers.
The “Fourth Transformation” and its Consequences
Over the past seven years, the “Fourth Transformation” has manifested as an institutional assault. In 2025, its true nature was evident through actions such as biased judge selections and disregard for democracy, favoring authoritarian regimes.
Suppression of Dissenting Voices
Those who oppose the ruling regime are consistently discredited, marginalized, and labeled as “conservatives,” “prianistas,” “voices of conservatism,” “commentators,” “fascists,” and even “traitors to the fatherland.” The most severe offenses, however, are not verbal but manifest through lies and policies that degrade the quality of life for increasing numbers of Mexicans, such as the purported “well-being pharmacies.”
National Unity and Polarization
The president’s call for national unity remains an illusion, as daily polarization creates a toxic environment that replaces dialogue and consensus with division, confrontation, and hatred.
Future Prospects and Call to Action
A growing segment of the population perceives a promising future in the short and medium term as increasingly unlikely. Many feel isolated and abandoned, living in a hostile world and forgetting that freedom is not a given but a condition requiring daily care.
Preserving Hope and Encouraging Action
To meet individual, family, community, national, and global expectations adorned with good intentions, hope, and solidarity, we must overcome apathy and act. It is crucial to restore pluralism and concord through dialogue, respect, and negotiation instead of imposition.
