Unfortunately, the tragedy caused by DANA in Valencia has fostered a breeding ground for spreading all kinds of lies and hoaxes on social networks whose sole purpose is to intoxicate and anger public opinion even more. In most cases, those responsible are elements of the media and political extreme right, the same cubs from Revuelta, Desokupa, España 2000, among others, who went to set it up in Paiporta.
Among the string of lies and hoaxes, one that always delights the right is resurrecting Francisco Franco. They love to remember the swamps that the dictator inaugurated to affirm that we have water thanks to his infinite goodness. And that, in the face of the “persistent drought”, Franco’s hydraulic policy solved our problems. They forget that this policy was defended at the beginning of the 20th century by regenerationists such as the geographer Ricardo Macías Picavea, or that the Badajoz plan was a copy of the one designed by the Minister of Public Works, the socialist Indalecio Prieto, during the Second Republic.
