Anti-fascist protest in Sabadell against Vox

Here is a story of unprecedented heroism, that of cousins Ignacio and Joan Garriga against the most fearsome enemy ever known: none other than a group of children engaged in an activity as dangerous as... learning a language spoken by several hundred million people worldwide. In all of human history, there has never been a display of courage like that shown by the Vox supporters in front of the Joan Sallarès i Pla School in Sabadell last week. They should be decorated with the highest honors, given some of those military medals awarded to intrepid men who venture into enemy territory to... well, in this case, it was to harass children on their way to school, but look at them sweating, looking at them risking their lives, these gentlemen who have become the enemy.

What do you think, that the children Moors They are as insignificant, weak, and deserving of protection as children. normalNo, Vox is worthy of admiration because it is crossing boundaries that no other political party has dared to cross: that of questioning universally accepted principles, established and hegemonic values according to which minors, as individuals in formation and development, should be treated differently than adults. We have all fallen into the trap of political correctness, which says that children are children no matter where they come from. Don't they see—as the Greens with their dictionary-like names do—that there are dangerous children, children who have come to conquer us and put an end to our way of life? Don't they realize that in their childlike eyes there is not innocence but the intrinsic malice of those whom the good apostle James so fiercely combated?

Ironies aside, what happened in the Campoamor neighborhood with this group of a thousand men harassing children (I repeat: children!) represents an exponential escalation in the execution of their racist violence. It's no longer just that they express an opinion, a discriminatory ideology that targets citizens who might fit the phenotype of an immigrant of Moroccan origin or have names and surnames that denote this origin: they organized a demonstration at the gates of a school. This writer only has a basic understanding of the law, but isn't it a crime to organize an angry mob in front of a school where children are present? If it isn't a crime, someone who understands should think about it, because in certain neighborhoods and schools, the entire country would grind to a halt if a few agitators decided to violate a space as sacred as a school. Sacred not from a religious point of view, but from a democratic one. I think we haven't been sufficiently outraged by the gravity of these events. Only the mayor of Sabadell spoke out forcefully against those who go looking for trouble in neighborhoods that, in fact, they care little about. Also speaking out were the anti-fascist voices reacting to the far right by making even more noise in front of... once again, the students. The last thing the students needed was a counter-protest.

With all this in mind, imagine, I tell myself, imagine you're the mother of one of these children and you discover you can't send them to school and rest easy, imagine your children having to go to class with an angry mob of adults. Perhaps those in Vox prefer that Arabic language classes be taught by Salafists in mosques instead of being separate from the Islamism they claim to be fighting against. What contribution have they made to this culture they call "our culture" by attacking children who will forever remember the day they witnessed firsthand the most ferocious face of racism. And the most cowardly.
