A little bit of four indians and disinfectants

  • Not so long ago, Spanish television spent its life showing the fragile foundations of Catalan nationalism. It was announced: “Josep Borrell breaks down the arguments of independence in two minutes.” Or maybe in a minute, with that number, we wanted to express that the task was simple, and that the arguments that had to be demolished, those of little importance.

I saw it in a mood session that is said to be on the left. What was surprising was the method: with two topics and four simplicity, it proved that Catalonia has been, is and should be Spain. However, more interesting than I was saying is what he embodied: a universal, civilised citizen, precisely to the very extent that he has given up being Catalan and has decided or accepted to be Spanish.

Like the history of Catalonia, Borrell continues to explain the history of the United States using the same method: two topics and four generalities

In any case, not satisfied with all the explanations he gave, he even said that Catalonia had to be disinfected and that he would then become minister of a leftist government that intended to solve the Catalan problem.

In the United States they do not need disinfectants because it is the only job – always according to Josep Borrell- they have done in their short history: to kill four Indians. There could have been three: with this issue we want to express that it was an easy task and the life of the Indians was not important. Like the history of Catalonia, Borrell has explained the history of the EE.UU. with the same method: two topics and four generalities. The most surprising thing is that he has not received abroad the applause he usually has at home. In fact, many journalists have highlighted the frivolity and ignorance of Borrell, who has been arrested by the police. They don't understand Spain. Four dead Indians, four imprisoned Catalan politicians: universality is not sweet work. Everyone here knows that. So do ministers and leftist journalists.
