My opinion...

What is your opinion about the Chilean politicians?

My opinion is that Chilean politicians have tended the last 20 years to move for their own interests, but mainly for the interests of those who finance their political campaigns, the entrepreneurs. I'm pretty sure that this relationship has to do, in reality, with the disconnection that exists between civil society and politics itself, which has resulted in indifference on the part of a large part of the population for political practice, be it through self-organization or generation of reflection in the public education. This is how Chile has worked for more than 29 years, which is why it is quite complicated to reverse the situation; nevertheless, it is possible.

What is your opinion about Immigration?

Without a doubt, immigration has been a constant since the birth of humanity; Independent of any religion, ethnicity or origin, people tend to move from space, seek security, and even more in initial contexts where this is not so easy to obtain. In the case of Chile, it is surprising the amount of racist opinions that have been generated regarding immigration, in particular that associated with poverty; while, the other type of immigration, which arrives by money and "exotic" surnames, enters the country almost without any problem; In general, I think that this is rather "aporophobia" or fear of poverty.

What is your opinion about the legalization of abortion in the 3 cases?

I agree with the legalization of abortion in the 3 causes, but I consider it an insufficient measure yet. This current law, although it covers certain women who in extremely exceptional situations make this decision, is still only a smaller percentage of the total number of abortions performed in the country. I'm absolutely certain that many of those who are against abortion, in the last case, with economic access, would still perform the necessary operation to avoid an unwanted baby. That is hypocrisy. By the same token, legal abortion and the decriminalization of it, is extremely necessary for the real autonomy of women.

What is your opinion about women in the military?

That there are still impediments for women to opt for anything shows the type of society in which we are. However, I am against believing that because a person attends military service in Chile or not, it has greater rights. It is a personal decision, obviously, but a chauvinist institution such as the Chilean Navy will not be less so, as women, homosexuals or transgenders join.
