Fetus, baby, embryo, what if you feel what if you don’t feel, what if at eight weeks of gestation calling it a baby is ultra-religious because at that time it is nothing, what if it happens often, what if there is no that’s it… Let me tell you something: for a woman who has unintentionally lost the child she is expecting, whether it’s a week or a month, it’s everything. It’s a child, not an embryo or a fetus or an ultrasound image, it’s her baby, it’s someone she’s dreaming of, the present and the future, the very life that’s draining away, the intense pain, the emptiness.

The networks once again showed their lack of empathy and humanity with the loss of Isabel Díaz Ayuso of the baby she was expecting. More than that, an explosion of hatred. Soon “karma” became a trend, some comments contained, “I’m not happy about it, but…”, this but which invalidates everything that has been said before. Others were already unleashed. No, we will not reproduce any of these tweets, nor their protagonists, to publicize meanness, which goes alone.

Rather, we do the opposite, we talk about those who feel far from Ayuso’s political, personal or whatever positions they are able to differentiate. Ana Pastor, so much on everyone’s lips these days, the writer Ana Iris Simón, who has been called a “nun” for saying that children, “born or not, are the most sacred”. What have we become? Politicians of all stripes also expressed their solidarity. There is a future, but we have a problem.

A problem called hate, and no, it’s not a matter of Twitter, we would do well to start calling things by their name: just as the corrupt do not come out from under a cabbage, but from a society that pays them, the hatred that is expressed through the networks is not born there, because the network is only the medium. We put it into perspective because of the supposed lightness we attribute to Twitter and others.

We have a problem in society and it’s called hate. Hate who thinks differently, hate who is not of the tribe, hate the opposite. One is able to defend the opposite of what one theoretically thinks if one believes it would benefit “others”. They should read the hate tweets in response to the hate tweets towards Ayuso. It’s crazy how we trivialize it.

And for the record that today is the “karma” of the president from Madrid, but tomorrow it will be that of someone else from another party. No one is spared. This one always appears, but it comes to justify reactions that if it were ours we would consider unjustifiable. Comments mostly anonymous. I guess people think that “karma” won’t affect them.
