What the current elections in Spain will mean for our germans and germanes in the Catalan countries?

It will most likely go badly and mean we lose many rights: language/cultural rights, LGBTQIA+, women's, working class rights, sex ed in schools... This will happen for sure if there's a PP+Vox win, but to be fair it won't be much different for us with a PSOE win (PSOE is also very Spanish nationalist, pro-police torturing dissidents, pro-monarchy, pro-capitalism, etc, they're the ones who created the GAL and who keep sending secret police and illegal surveillance to investigate Catalan independentist movement and related leftist movements like the housing movement).

Many independentists are refusing to vote this time, because they see that no parties can actually apply independentist/leftist policies from inside the system (despite how Junts and CUP are really trying, but find their work frustrated by the judicial system or by what's legally limited). As a result of this and the difference in how we should react to Spain's repression, the independence movement is quite distracted with in-fighting, while the right-wing is united as always.

Despite what we feel about the parties and indirect/bourgeois democracy limited by this fascist state (Spain's laws are not great and separation of powers is non-existant), it's very dangerous to hand the control of laws, police, army, education, and all public office to those who want us dead. This "punishment abstention" will have consequences, and they won't be the consequences that those who chose not to vote or to vote null would have liked.

The only good news is that BILDU seems to be going up a lot. That's good work from our friends in the Basque Country.

Bueno, hora de ser española.

Quizás llego tarde a esta fiesta pero yo también quería dibujar a Porco Rosso diciendo algo importante!!

Hoy más que nunca VOTA que tardas 20 minutos como mucho y no cuesta nada cuando el resultado es una España libre de fascistas. 🇪🇸❤️✨️

I don't assume anyone following me here is spanish too, but I wanted to post this drawing here too.

Today is voting day here and an user on twitter (alvaroortiz_) redrew Porco Rosso encouraging us all to vote against fascism and to redraw the same still of Porco Rosso, and of course I had to join! Fascism is an issue in Spain ever since the dictatorship ended years ago and I hope people will vote for what's right! ❤️🇪🇸

Este domingo hay que ir..

Galicia pls case 8 anos con este señor e volvémoslle votar?? Non estades ata a cona xa?!

Supoño que en comparación con outras cousas o de Marcia Dorado xa parece pataca miúda smh

Creíamos que ya no se podía caer más bajo con la utilización por parte de la derecha de las víctimas del terrorismo, pero les habíamos subestimado, estos miserables no tienen límite.

2 hanno fatto la scissione al centro, 1 è primo ministro.

It must be nice being a leftist in Europe. You are rooting for the people in control of most of the world and every single major corporation. You never lose, BUT you get to roleplay being the plucky resistance fighters. I hope they don't live to see it all come to the inevitable end.

Qué bonita es España y su gente. Y en cuánto peligro estamos.

This week your spanish friends (🐽) will be a little more sensitive than usual. Be kind with them because it's election week and we will jump as a broken toy hahaha

El vicesecretario de Institucional del PP, Esteban González Pons, ha señalado este lunes que Alberto Núñez Feijóo iniciará conversaciones con el PNV y también con el PSOE si el Rey le propone que sea candidato a la Presidencia del Gobierno y, de esta forma, poder evitar un Ejecutivo con Pedro Sánchez al frente de lo que sería un “Frankenstein plus” porque “empeora al anterior”.

Las elecciones generales del 23J en España han sido probablemente las más interesantes y sorprendentes en mucho tiempo. Ocurrió de todo y de seguro estos comicios se convertirán en un futuro no tan lejano en un estudio de caso: manejo de encuestas, debates y ausencias, manejo de expectativas, estrategias y errores. Todo un laboratorio del cual aprender y desaprender. En este episodio desmenuzamos qué pasó y qué puede pasar en cuanto a la formación de un nuevo gobierno, nuevamente, junto a nuestro amigo David Hijón.
