Maps
- You may have done it before, but when the elections come, I've already noticed on social media. Maps.
Maps of Spain show the general or electoral results of a given party. They are usually given in two colors: one color encompasses Galicia, the Southern Basque Country and Catalonia, and the other, the rest of the State. I have written “Hego Euskal Herria”, but sometimes it is the CAPV; even more so, from time to time Navarra adds a third color to the image; and I have written “Catalunya”, but under its label we should understand the Principality, as often Valencia and the Balearic Islands take the color of Spanish Spain.
The bottom map I have seen, for example, showed the results of Vox: the lowest number of votes has been obtained in these three countries, in which Navarre and the CAPV have joined, with Valencia and the Balearic Islands aligned towards Spain. Like other maps, it contained an invitation for reflection. A rather guided reflection: who voted for fascism and who did not, and therefore the number of democrats like us rises.
Other readings are also possible, in my opinion. For example, in places where Spain is “at stake”, the Spanish right knows how to play pragmatic and votes for other unionist options that accumulate more strength than it is. On the other hand, Vox is not the only expression of hatred, as seen in some of the responses from digital platforms.
As long as they're based on data, these maps are tools that should give us what to think about. But if the goal is to give pleasure by showing how good we are, then they're collecting data in vain. The network has long been offering more effective choices for onanism.

In recent times we have had the opportunity to analyse politicisation and depoliticisation, focusing attention on young people. However, most of the conclusions of sociological studies dealing with young people are also applicable to other age groups, although of varying... [+]
Human beings are in contact with us and with the environment in which we live, everything we do influences both good and evil. Personal values, culture, relationships and material possibilities are decisive to reduce the negative impact that we can generate.

Train stations in many cities show the highest beauty of the 19th century iron structure, along with the rise of arrival at the epicenter of the city. It's like entering the city through the front door, a pearl of architecture and place. However, in many cities, in the phenomena... [+]
Why not leave it. He who writes the columns always follows the apologies of withdrawal in time. Before stocks are exhausted. The issues, to me, I have not been able to exhaust them, because I am not an expert in anything, and I have never had messages to convey to Euskal Herria... [+]
Start of the summer. EHZ festival hangover (atx, headache). You want to breathe after a charged course. Flush the head. Reconnect key elements. Take some time with family, see old friends again and rest (a little) in the daily struggle. Really? !...

There are words, forms, gestures and attitudes that cannot enter and leave the body. Those that get into the body and rot into it. They pierce the body. They break down the body. They eliminate the body. And it's over. You can't go back to a state before a body that's broken down... [+]

We all know that freedom is a difficult, multi-margin concept, difficult to define in words. We often define it immensely, with being able to decide without constraints, without consequences or without taking responsibility for the actions. But since there is nothing without... [+]
Ms. Judge of the Bayona Court of Justice dismisses:
In March, I was judged by some Euskaltzales in Baiona for taking part in some of the actions we have taken to denounce the unfair treatment suffered by the Basque authorities in the French state. At the beginning of the trial,... [+]
It is not easy to understand what is happening in Catalonia. Certainly. We can end the 2017 process, but it remains to be seen whether independence will be able to start a new process of liberation.
If independence had been maintained in most elections, there would be another... [+]
We have been with the "summer snake" over the TAV for a few weeks and with the possibility of linking the "Basque Y" from Pamplona, from Ezkio or Vitoria.
It is disappointing to see that our People continue to depend on decisions concerned and not supported by the galgos and... [+]
