To the Spanish authorities, Mr. Cuixart is a dangerous criminal [..] Yet to his supporters, and in the eyes of many foreign countries, he is a political prisoner sitting in the heart of Europe.

"Several Spanish activists have been persecuted and sent to jail for voicing their opinion. Activists [..] outside of Spain have been illegally spied on by the Spanish secret service.
Artists cannot breathe without fearing repercussions"

"Rappers were prosecuted and convicted by Spanish courts for the crime of singing against the monarchy and allegedly inciting violence and praising terrorism -a charge that has become commonplace in Spain and is used to harass and imprison critics of the regime"

Protests erupted all over Spain, complete with police violence against people demanding their freedoms.
One of the judges responsible for Hasél's conviction, Nicolás Poveda, was an active member and candidate in the 1970s for the fascist Falange Party.

The poll, however, is a devastating blow to hard-line Spanish nationalism. Spain’s two centre-right parties, the Partido Popular and Ciudadanos, plunged from 40 seats (of 135) to nine.

Catalan pro-independence parties took more than 50 per cent of the vote for the first time, winning 74 of the 135 seats in the regional parliament, an increase of four seats from the 2017 election.

In 1981 Lieutenant Colonel Antonio Tejero, a member of Spain’s civil guard paramilitary police force, led a failed coup d'etat in the Spanish parliament.
Indeed, he wore a silly hat too.

The Belgian justice system has once again refused to extradite the former Catalan Minister of Culture, Lluís Puig, in connection with the October 2017 referendum.
The judge considered that the Supreme Court was not competent to send the euro warrant..

The book’s opening brilliantly captures the idealism that pertained on the left in the early stages of the Spanish civil war in Barcelona, where Orwell had arrived in December 1936 to fight for the Spanish republic against the fascist rebellion

Orwell denounced Stalin’s Russia but it was the only great power willing to aid the Spanish republic when the French, British and Americans shamefully stood aside, while Hitler and Mussolini gave Franco copious help.

Yesterday 21 pro-independence business people were detained by Spain's Guardia Civil, the arbitrary detentions continue.
Some of them charged to conspire with Russia against Spain, it looks like judges are running out of ideas to charge Catalans

The judge incredibly affirms that Russia offered 10,000 troops to help Catalonia to achieve independence.
The Russian embassy in Madrid reacted with irony, saying the information was incorrect: they offered one million troops instead of 10k 🤣🤣

Of course, the police and judiciary took advantage of this situation to show his fascist behavior: "Vólkhov" is the name they used for this operation.
In the Vólkhov battle, Spain's Blue Division fought alongside Nazis against the Red Army 👇👇
