La derecha negacionista: The Colombian right-wing is described as complacent and resistant to change, failing to adapt to the country’s evolving social and political landscape. Their fixation on Gustavo Petro as the sole antagonist has led to a reduction in their own political discourse and an inability to offer credible alternatives. Without engaging the political center and developing a serious centrist proposal, the right risks continued electoral failure, not due to Petro’s strength, but their own strategic mediocrity.

• The Colombian right-wing is characterized by arrogance, a lack of listening, and an inability to adapt to social changes.
• Despite Gustavo Petro’s perceived poor governance, the opposition has failed to capitalize on it, resorting to repetitive criticisms.
• The right has reduced Petro to their sole narrative, leading to self-minimization and an inability to evolve.
• Instead of building alternatives, they mirror the government’s impulsiveness and superficiality.
• Colombia has changed, and outdated slogans like ‘Castro-Chavismo’ are no longer effective.
• The new middle class is fragile and less ideological, while youth distrust extremes.
• Citizens are tired of political polarization and desire competence over rhetoric.
• Victory is impossible without the political center, which rejects extremism and demands viable solutions.
• The right needs to articulate a serious centrist proposal that unites rather than divides.
• The right’s strategic mediocrity and internal fragility, not Petro, will lead to future defeats if they fail to transform. https://nicaragua-hub.syndichain.com/articles/6a6cfbc7-c285-4fef-9b73-1a6dbaf4a298 https://www.noticiasrcn.com/opinion/juan-carlos-bolivar-159/opinion-la-derecha-negacionista-967812
