At the European football championships, in 2021 I was stunned to see Captain Chiellini & C king more for George Floyd, killed on the other side of the ocean by a criminal policeman who had planted his knee on his neck. In 2025, our media are divided into Charlie Kirk’s Legacy, killed with a shotgun during a rally.

The paradox is that Kirk himself had called Floyd a “scumbag”, literally “used prophylactic”, and had claimed the law of Americans to possess weapons even at the cost of some collateral damage: “I think it is worth taking into account, unfortunatelysome deaths caused by firearms every year, in order to have the second amendment to protect our other rights granted by God “.

This schizophrenia, more than any other symptom, reveals that the umbilical towing cable / cord between the United States and Europe is too short: each steering of the driving power forces us to impossible corners, debating on tragedies that actually touch us only by reflection.

It would take a healthy emotional detachment but, unfortunatelythe worn cord only serves to drag us, and no longer feeds.
