Coana Mita pe bancnota! |
Polemici |
Scris de Ninel Ganea |

Din lista de nume susceptibile sa inlocuiasca figura lui Caragiale pe bancnota de 100 de lei lipseste cea mai reprezentativa persoana pentru un demers atat de important: Coana Mita Biciclista. Nu trebuie sa priviti cu zambete aceasta propunere si am sa argumentez de ce. Initiativa ONG-ului tinteste schimbarea “perceptiei generale asupra sexului frumos” si cu greu imi vine in minte o persoana care sa simbolizeze mai bine acest lucru. Mita s-a luptat cu prejudecatile monumentale ale bucurestenilor si romanilor inca din sec. XIX, cand a purtat pantaloni si “s-a dat” cu bicicleta pe Calea Victoriei, intr-o vreme cand bicicletele erau greu accesibile chiar si in Europa, iar pedalatul doamnelor, cel putin, o extravaganta. Mai mult, ea a aratat cum pot fi daramate conventii si atitudini invechite -“epater la bourgeoisie”- doar printr-o simpla imbaiere la mare cu o vestimentatie sumara, dar in vazul tuturor. E o figura ideala pentru tot ceea ce vrea sa faca, pe bani europeni, cum altfel, ONG-ul cu pricina: egalitarism pe toata linia (mai putin politic), sincronizare tampa cu inatacabilele valori europene, distrugerea radacinilor unei comunitati. In Coana Mita nu avem doar o reprezentare fascinanta a trecutului nostru national, ci si o anticipare extraordinara a viitorului mondial: stergerea oricaror distinctii personale, prin contestarea radicala a prejudecatilor unei societati in numele religiei progresului. “A prime object of militant communism is to produce a general social skepticism. Not that the communists are skeptics themselves. They are the world’s leading dogmatists and authoritarians. But in order to bring about their dogmatic reconstruction of the world they need to produce this skepticism among the traditional believers(…) The more subtle of them realize, no doubt, that people can be made to forget how well a system is working right under their noses if they can be allured and distracted with pie in the sky”. (Richard Weaver – Life without prejudice) In zilele in care, la Bucuresti, sute de hipsteri inocenti pedaleaza si clameaza dreptul fundamental, inscris in marea carte a naturii, la cel putin o banda pentru biciclete, “existam si-o sa avem banda!”, icoana Mitei pe bicicleta asigura protectia spirituala a participantilor. Asta in timp ce banii si proiectele Agendei 21 lasa in continuare naivilor senzatia ca miscarea prinde radacini de la baza, ca un efort nascut spontan, “eco-friendly”, dintr-o necesitate care nu mai poate astepta o secunda. Si nu in ultimul rand, de ce nu am lua in calcul si faptul ca figura Coanei s-ar potrivi fantastic pe o moneda mizerabila cum este leul romanesc. Caragiale priveste prea ironic de pe hartia de 100. In schimb, Mita ar arata toata grandoarea calpa, feminist-inflationista, cocotata pe bicicleta. Ii multumesc lui Cristi C. pentru sugestie si bibliografie. |
