Well it took them bloody long enough to notice!

At least somebody is calling out this bullshit! And from the Basque Country no less.

The leftwing separatist coalition EH Bildu, widely viewed as the political heir of the defunct armed group ETA, made a major breakthrough in Sunday's Basque regional elections although falling short of the win predicted by pollsters. With 99 percent of the vote counted, Bildu increased its representation from 21 to 27 mandates in the 75-seat Basque parliament, giving it the same result as the centrist Basque Nationalist Party (PNV), which has ruled the region for decades. Polls had predicted a tight race, seeing a narrow victory for Bildu -- a coalition which has worked to disassociate itself from ETA, whose bloody struggle for an independent Basque homeland claimed 850 lives before it rejected violence in 2011. And six years after ETA's dissolution, EH Bildu has pursued a winning strategy, putting its pro-independence demands on the back burner and focusing strongly on social issues, securing a solid following among young people under 40.

PP accusing EH Bildu of being the most reactionary party in Europe when it was PP the one opposing abortion, same-sex marriage, the one who spent +500,000€ of tax payers' money on a single (1) giant Spanish flag, and approved awarding a civil merit medal to Virgin Mary.

Spanish nationalists are truly something else.

Su pureza étnica nos mantiene a salvo. España, y en especial las provincias vascongadas son un lugar más seguro.

Not sure if you even care, but since you are posting about elections I would like to inform that EH Bildu (the pro-independence leftist Basque party in Spain) got the most votes in Basque Country/Euskadi and also got many in Navarra.

Interesting! Thx for the heads up [28 May 23]

yesterday i saw a map where it showed that almost everywhere the pp had won which perpetuates that they should be ruling and that spain is conservative and whatnot, but that map was influenced by the US electoral system where a state is either red or blue and it has no validation following spain's electoral system. this is the real map we should be focusing on (found here)

like in the canary islands both provinces have 3 pp seats and 3 psoe seats. but one is blue and the other is red for some reason. in badajoz the right won, but still, it's red. in pontevedra the left won, but it's blue. even places like madrid where everyone was saying yesterday that they fucked up the psoe winning, the right only won by two seats. honestly, looking at the overall map, things are more 50-50 than the other map wanted to show.

eating or just spending time with my parents is so wild bc i know theres no one else that understands my humor and me in general like they do (only child perks i guess) but then at the same time they will say the most racist shit possible and im left thinking that theres no normal ppl in the world that will ever get me

Mi análisis sobre las elecciones vascas.

Holy shit.

Esperanza Aguirre blanquea el franquismo, Bildu blanquea a ETA... El revisionismo de nuevo cuño solo tiene un objetivo: enterrar la memoria histórica... Bildu, con maquiavélica habilidad, todo hay que decirlo, ha conseguido colocar su versión de la historia, una especie de revisionismo histórico abertzale concebido para mitigar o atenuar el remordimiento colectivo, el sentimiento de culpabilidad tribal, la magnitud de las atrocidades que en nombre de la patria y la independencia se cometieron... la misma infame maniobra de Espe Aguirre para justificar el fascismo (José Antequera)

Ok last question I promise. Is PNV pro-independence??? From what I gather they are the Basque equivalent of PP, while news reporters here say they are also nationalists like Bildu?

Kaixo!

Both parties are nationalists.

PNV sails through their position regarding independence like a skilled captain: sometimes yes, sometimes nope, most of the times perhaps, if the time is right, and we're still waiting. I'd say they're center-right, definitely not the PP equivalent of Basque people.

Bildu is left wing and independentist.
