The DANA violence in Valencia, above all, but also in the Castilian-La Mancha, Andalusian and Catalan territories, has also left us overwhelmed, in the midst of a political climate that seems the worst of all for so much tragedy. The violence with which the State authorities were received yesterday (all of them, from the king to the president Carlos Mazón) comes to confirm what many of us have feared for a long time: the underworld of the extreme right, neo-fascism, neo-Nazism or chamallewhich we say in Galicia, is established in an increasingly larger dimension that already invades that of democracy and appears with greater and greater force to take it all and take over the authoritarian power and force to which they aspire. It doesn’t matter whether corpses are being searched among rubble or whether a town is desperately asking for help: this scavenger species knows perfectly well where it has to be to incite fear and desperation with its anti-political messages and hoaxes. The greater the misfortune, the better for the ultra carrion, which stinks up every terrain it passes through.
The victims of the catastrophe deserve all our support and understanding: It is very difficult to comprehend the bottomless pit feeling you must find yourself in right now.especially those who have been affected by the loss of human life in their family and/or environment. His pain cannot be questioned in any way; their helplessness, neither, so the use of this desolation for partisan and power purposes must be immediately condemned by anyone who calls themselves a democrat; He even considers himself a decent human being. The victims must be supported, listened to, relieved without sparing any material or immaterial means and repaired in the shortest possible time: forbidden to forget them when a few days pass, we know each other.
Meanwhile, the public response must be forceful against those who talk about a “failed state” and I don’t know how much more nonsense, sorry, while They try to invade the institutional space and destroy it by violent means.as they are forcing from the ultra underworld, with the complicity of two types of people (a saying): those who consider them an access route or a support to achieve power and those who do not see them with bad eyes, let’s not fool ourselves, that xenophobes, sexists, homophobes, misogynists, racists and other specimens of the same ilk, habelos, hailosand there are always too many.
Spain is not a failed State, at all, among other things, because it is us and we who decide what State we want… or what we do not want, but we settle, as I fear has been the case for many years with complicity of a satisfied PP and a resigned PSOE in its bases and comfortable in its leadership; In recent years, less so, because the growing diversity of this country, the breaking of corsets carried over from Franco’s regime – and those that remain – has forced it to move towards that territorial plurality and towards the left. And the PP and the rest of the (ultra) right do not forgive him -they have never forgiven the socialists for settling in La Moncloa, in reality-, although the feeling is still too often that the PSOE seeks to be forgiven by the right, which in turn has become, in these times, a extreme right coward, who imitates Vox and hides his hand, showing his fingers, agreeing on governments and cutting the social state, above all. Also in the Valencian Community.
The infinite tragedy of DANA points to all of us, not just politicians, and it would be good if the pandemic did not happen (“We will come out better”), the end of which also brought with it forgetting the promised reinforcement of public health or nursing homesFor example, with absolute majorities of those who only want a rickety State that sustains its power, its privileged, and not the well-being, human rights and equal rights and opportunities of the people they govern. Our decisions matter; those of each one of us; when it comes to voting, of course, but also when it comes to conforming, keeping quiet, misinforming ourselves, spreading hoaxes or looking the other way in the face of corruption and behavior lacking the minimum of ethics. for a politician. Of course the State is the king (hopefully the republic), the Cortes, the Justice, the Spanish Government, the autonomous and municipal governments or the civil servants and public workers, but the State is also you and it is in our power to shape it. . There are lives that depend on it, we have seen it too many times already.
