Are we talking about a real car or two very different cars?

The right-wing unit and the problem of wanting to buy this Ferrari 600

This blog has no advertising, but today I am going to do a little market research before I start talking about Spanish politics.

The Balearic Islands and the useless vote for a PP mired in progressive and nationalist dogmas
The PP and the 'Andalusian speech': what will come next in light of what it did in Galicia

What you see at the top of this post is a splendid Ferrari 600, a high-end vehicle that combines a classic, nostalgic and familiar design with a high-displacement engine designed to withstand the high performance required by a racing car prepared for...

[Rumours in the background: Elentir is trying to rip us off. That's not a Ferrari or a Seat 600, it's an artificial intelligence image to which this guy has added a Ferrari emblem. It's surely a scam orchestrated by Bilbo to buy more cookies...]

Okay, okay... you got me. Sure enough, I asked Grok for an AI image of a Seat 600 with a Ferrari badge, but in the end I had to resort to Photoshop because Grok gets a bit confused with badges... Obviously, this Ferrari 600 doesn't exist. A Seat 600 is one thing and a Ferrari is another. They are very different cars, and the only thing they have in common is that they have four wheels and a steering wheel.

I hope this example serves to illustrate the contradiction of the calls for "unity of the right" that are read in Spain every time electoral polls begin to appear. A unity that would include a conservative party, Vox, and an ideological clone of socialism, the PP, which has ended up assuming a large part of the ideological theses of the left: abortion, gender ideology, mass immigration, criminal discrimination against men, ecological radicalism, social democratic recipes in economic matters... That is to mention just a few ideological dogmas that Vox openly opposes.

Today, claiming that the PP is a right-wing party is like believing in that Ferrari 600, that is, believing that a party can adopt such clear leftist dogmas as those mentioned and at the same time continue to say that it is right-wing so that people who identify with conservative ideas will vote for it. The problem with wanting to buy that Ferrari 600 comes when you discover that you have been cheated. That is not a Ferrari: it is a Seat 600 with another badge. And then the disappointments come.

Many Spaniards already voted for a Ferrari 600 in November 2011, when the Popular Party won the general elections with an absolute majority and Mariano Rajoy came to power. During his mandate, the PP left intact all the ideological laws of the left, including the disastrous abortion law that the PP itself had appealed to the Constitutional Court. It was a colossal deception, and despite the anger that it provoked in many voters (Vox was born, after all, as a consequence of that anger), now they intend to commit the same deception again, taking right-wing voters for idiots. For my part, I am clear: I will never again vote for a party that deceives its voters like this. Never.
