Personal Opinions

What is your opinion on the social networks and the effect they have on society?
I think social networks could be beneficial if we use it as a way to give our opinion, to make discussion, to make diffusion, to keep us informed about important issues, to share memes, etc. But, in the other hand, social networks tends to be a kind of destructive place, with so much harmful stereotypes, violent opinions and lack of information. It depends on the way we use it.

What is your opinion on animal testing?
Personally, I'm desagree about animal testing, especially for cosmetic issues. Currently, I know there is a strict protocol to do animal experiments in sciencie, wich I see as a little progress, but I think we must stop see no-human animals like things we can use to our benefit. I don't see the difference between testing on humans (as in the Holocaust) and testing in other animals. I know sometimes is seems like "necessary", but in these cases I would think it so hard, like most of you would think if we have to experiment on humans, who can give their consent (animals can't, so we take advantage of this and of our language breach).

What is your opinion on the idea that marriage is an outdated institution?
I think marriage is an oppressive mechanism, inecessary and harmful. I know that ir our times, marriage is a tool that facilitates legal issues, I understand it. But I think is better to destroy these archaic ways of social relationships and move foward to more harmonious and cooperative ways, where the love will not related to state control, and we don't need a paper or any contract to be sure about love.

What do you think is the best way to solve the sea access dispute with Bolivia?
My opinion on the current conflict with Bolivia is that there is a dispute between dominant classes of both countries. The "chilean" sea belongs to the economic class long ago, including foraing companies. Somebody say that gives Bolivia a way out to the sea is like throw to the trash "all the deaths of the war", but the truth is these deaths always been in vain, because the winnings were for the same people, not for the working-class, where soldiers belong to. I don't see a big problem (for the ordinary civic) on gives to Bolivia a sea access. Nationalism is a way that the state and the dominant classes use (and always has been using) to protect their historic privileges.

The place I'd like to visit

Imagen
I really like to visit so many places around the world, primarily in Latin America, but at least for now I would like to do the San Pedro-Perú-Bolivia-Ecuador track. Nevertheless, I know this wonderful track takes so many time and money, especially in San Pedro, a very expensive place, as opposed to Perú and Bolivia. So, considering this, I think that I would divide the tracks in two trips: maybe San Pedro-Perú and Bolivia-Ecuador. In San Pedro I would like to visit the "Valle de la Luna", the Tatio's geysers, the hot springs of Puritama, "Pukará de Quitor", where are Atacameño's archaeological remains, the salar of Atacama and the Chaxa lake. And also, I would like to do some astronomical and astrological tours in there, or just see the stars by this place.  In Perú I would like to visit Cuzco, and in there, go to the Machu Picchu ruins; Chachapoyas, Tumbes, Puerto Maldonado, Abancay and Arequipa. Maybe I would visit Lima, but some people tell me it ...

My Future Job.

Imagen
When I was a child and I start to imagine myself in the future, I didn't think that I would become a Psychologist. By that time I wish to be a teacher, an astronaut, a pediatrician doctor, etc. Now, when I think that I will be a Psychologist, I have others work interests.  I don't even know exactly what I would to do in the future, but by this time I think I like to work as a Clinical Psychologist, but maybe related to the social area, I mean, work for the SENAME, or in high-risk social sectors in Santiago, Chile or South America, by the public system. On the other hand, I also want to work independently, be self employed, maybe in my own consulting room. I like this idea mainly because of the possibility of having a flex time job. I would like to have a flex time job or a part time job because, in addition of the psycological practice, I like to do so many things, like paint, dance, read, make craftwork, do sport, etc.  In addition to this, I really want that my...

Hi there! This time I'm gonna talk you a litlle about a topic that worries me a lot: sale of animals. Well, Have you ever seen the puppies and kittens in the places where they sell them? They keep them in cages or spaces (which are still cages, only without the irons) of no more than one square meter, whe they can barely move a few steps during the whole period that are not adopted. They keep them in glass cases, yes, as if they were wallets that people can look and choose according to the image they have, and of course, the status of the race which they belong. They have a price because they are seen as objects, we profit with their lives, because their lives are inferior to ours and then we can do what we want with them, that is the logic. They have even manipulated this species to create breeds that are more attractive to the market, regardless of the effects they have. For example, there are some breeds like the "cava-poo-chon", part of the small races calle...
