 La concepción de que el ser humano es corrupto por naturaleza es una idea profundamente arraigada en ciertos enfoques filosóficos y sociopolíticos. Desde esta perspectiva, los individuos, al enfrentarse con oportunidades que les permitan obtener beneficios personales a costa del bien común, tienden a actuar en su propio interés, incluso si esto significa perjudicar a otros. Este comportamiento, enraizado en una supuesta inclinación natural hacia la codicia y el egoísmo, se convierte en un fundamento que explica gran parte de la estructura social y política actual. Esta visión del ser humano, aunque pesimista, es aprovechada por las élites que controlan los sistemas de poder a nivel global y local. Estas élites, entendiendo la naturaleza corruptible del ser humano, diseñan y manipulan las instituciones y los mecanismos de gobierno para asegurarse de que los representantes públicos—quienes deberían actuar en beneficio del pueblo—sean fácilmente influenciables y maleables. Así, la corrup

Below is an in-depth analysis of the most pressing issues shaping today’s world. 1. Ukraine-Russia Conflict: A Continuing Stalemate with Global Implications The conflict between Ukraine and Russia remains one of the most significant global security concerns. Despite recent Ukrainian gains in regions like Kursk, the war has settled into a grinding stalemate with little prospect of a resolution in the near future.

Russia, for its part, continues to endure economic hardships due to sustained international sanctions, which have severely impacted its economy, leading to internal unrest and challenges to the Kremlin's auth
 Si adoptamos la perspectiva de que Marruecos está utilizando esta táctica de liberar a miles de presos, algunos con antecedentes penales graves, como una forma de atacar la estabilidad de España y, en consecuencia, la "españolidad", podríamos interpretar esta acción como una herramienta dentro de una estrategia de presión y desestabilización. Tácticas en el marco de la guerra híbrida Dentro del concepto de guerra híbrida, Marruecos podría estar utilizando varias tácticas combinadas: 1. Presión Migratoria Intencional: La liberación masiva de presos que luego terminan en España puede verse como una forma de inundar el país con personas que podrían representar un desafío para la seguridad, generando tensiones sociales y políticas. Esto podría ser visto como una estrategia para sobrecargar los sistemas de justicia, seguridad y bienestar social en España. 2. Desestabilización Interna: Al facilitar la entrada de individuos con antecedentes penales graves en España, se podría estar
