Political corruption is not an external virus, but an autoimmune disease: the system attacks itself while its defenses promise that this will not happen again, as if it were a simple seasonal cold. Each electoral cycle repeats the same diagnosis without prescribing treatment.
The source code of the promise: patches that don't fix the kernel 🖥️
In software development, an autoimmune bug would be one that corrupts its own security code while running a repair function. Anti-corruption patches in politics work the same way: cosmetic updates are deployed that don't touch the system's kernel. The changelog only adds lines of empty promises, while the main exploit remains intact in the resource management layer. The result is an infinite loop of unstable beta versions.
The antivirus that asks for donations from the trojan 🦠
The funniest part is watching the system create ethics committees funded with the same budget that later gets diverted. It's like installing an antivirus that asks you for donations to avoid infection, while the trojan sits at the board table. In the end, the only disease that gets cured is the taxpayer's nervous laughter.
