The glossary of sexual violence that the Podemos of Errejón reinvented: the purple ones blamed the victims’ environment for “covering and complicit silence”

The first complaint against the boyish deputy comes from the actress and television presenter Elisa Mouliaá. He has filed it where it belongs: at the police station, in this case of the UFAM (Family and Women Care Units) of the National Police, although in certain territories of the country it would have been before the Civil Guard where he reported the sexual harassment of the Strait collaborator of Yolanda Díaz. The complaint is for harassment, like that of Jennifer Hermoso against Luis Rubiales, but then Errejón immediately asked for the head of the president of the Spanish Football Federation because he thought the attitude displayed in front of the television cameras about the player was “slimy.” The actress, however, recounts an episode of sexual assault in the complaint.more severely judged than harassment (which could also be street harassment, for example): Mouliaá claims that during a party he locked her in a room, He took out his penis in front of her and touched her against her will, according to La Sexta, to which its collaborator has provided the complaint.

Behind the scenes, in a more hidden way, Errejón moved as Mouliaá said in his statements to Sexta and RTVE. On social networks the parliamentarian launched his first messages, despite the fact that Errejón and some colleagues from Sumar have defended on numerous occasions that all possible means must be used to combat the digital violence exercised against women. Errejón’s tentacles on the Internet were long, as proven by multiple messages recapitulated by the victims who made their cell phones available to journalist Cristina Fallarás, the activist who opened her Instagram to display some of the testimonies collected against Errejón.

The complicit silence of the environment

In recent years, deputies from the ranks of Unidas Podemos like Errejón himself, ministers like Irene Montero at the head of Equality, Ana Redondo now a socialist, but also Mónica García herself when asked if health centers would be a good place To dismantle the first causes of gender violence in the country, they encouraged victims to report, but above all they asked for more involvement from the environment. Responsibility, they said. Blame. Right now, according to the latest report from the Judiciary, nearly two out of every ten complaints of sexist violence are filed by neighbors who hear a beating, or by relatives concerned about the psychological violence that their relative is receiving. Montero, being a minister, invented a campaign paid for by the Department of Equality and the Government of Pedro Sánchez, therefore, to incite that environment as a complicit silencer of the violence exercised against women. Judge Victoria Rosell, who was then the Government’s delegate against Gender Violence, even pointed the finger of accusation at that environment because if you remain silent, you are an accomplice to the crime, she opined.

Now that the ‘Errejón case’ has broken out, there are many voices that repeat the word hypocrisy in the halls of Congress, in the ranks of Más Madrid, in those of Sumar and in those of Podemos, where Errejón shared more than a table and tablecloth with Pablo Iglesias, founder of the purple ones, and Irene Montero. Also Ione Belarra, today general secretary and deputy in the Congress from which Errejón is leaving. Iglesias himself has acknowledged that these tragic episodes were talked about a year ago. Several journalists have pointed out in the last few hours without a doubt that in Parliament, in political groups and in the ranks of the party Errejón’s accusations of sexual violence were known. Let us remember that Irene Montero coined that sexual violence is sexist violence exercised against women, so, by syllogism, Errejón would be a sexual criminal and a sexist criminal, as Montero themselves called them, Ángela Rodríguez ‘Pam’, also in the ranks. from Podemos, and Vicky Rosell.

The complaint against Errejón will be for sexual harassment, within the ‘law of yes means yes’ that Montero-Pam-Rosell themselves developed with disastrous results when applied to condemned prisoners. You will not be tried for gender violence, which It is another law, the one from 2004 which, by the way, gave birth to a State Pact between all the political forces of the time that Podemos refused to support. He abstained then and then asked for his renewal at the head of the ministry due to the sudden importance he had.

In this legal gibberish and in the absence of more complaints being known and how the legal process is applied to the now former deputy, the only certain thing is that Errejón’s entourage never reported what they knew while asking citizens to do so if they did not want the weight of conscience fell on them.
