The best thing a politician who wants to promote democracy among young people can do is defend it against all its enemies.<\/p>\n
This defense must be directed against all anti-democratic movements, both far-left and far-right, and also Islamists.<\/strong> Let's not forget that today in the world, Islamism is the ideology that inspires the most dictatorships, followed by communism. Criticizing a far-right dictatorship and supporting communist and Islamist dictatorships is not the mark of democrats: it is the mark of hypocrites<\/strong>, of people who don't believe in democracy.<\/p>\n The PSOE is looking for pretexts to increase ideological indoctrination.<\/big><\/p>\n Yesterday it became known that the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), led by Pedro S\u00e1nchez, is scandalized by the sympathy of many young people towards the Franco dictatorship<\/a>, and for this reason they intend to reinforce the so-called \"democratic memory\" in education<\/strong>. This is a way of finding pretexts to increase socialist indoctrination, since this \"democratic memory\" is in reality imposing the sectarian vision of the left in education<\/strong>, a vision according to which the Spanish Civil War was a war between democrats and anti-democrats.<\/p>\n The reality is that there were anti-democrats on both sides of the Spanish Civil War<\/strong>. It is enough to remember that the PSOE has defended democratic ideas for years<\/a>, an attitude defended by socialist leaders whom that party continues to champion.<\/p>\n The PSOE vindicates historical socialists who supported a dictatorship<\/big><\/p>\n For example, in May 2024 S\u00e1nchez claimed responsibility for Pablo Iglesias Posse<\/a>, founder of the PSOE, an extremist who encouraged the coup and supported Lenin's brutal communist dictatorship<\/a>. Likewise, in May 2021 S\u00e1nchez asked to imitate Francisco Largo Caballero<\/a>, who was president of the PSOE during the Second Republic and who defended a \"socialist dictatorship\" and threatened a \"civil war\" if the right won the 1933 elections<\/a>.<\/p>\n Supporting dictatorships from the Spanish government<\/big><\/p>\n On the other hand, S\u00e1nchez has ministers from the Communist Party of Spain (PCE) in his government, a party that defends a totalitarian ideology and that has been supporting dictatorships like Cuba<\/a>, Venezuela<\/a>, communist China<\/a> and even North Korea<\/a>.<\/p>\n Likewise, S\u00e1nchez has been showing his sympathy for several dictatorships<\/a>. Just a few days ago, in Vietnam, paid tribute to the communist dictator Ho Chi Minh<\/a>, a mass murderer whose regime killed more than a million people<\/a>. It is also worth mentioning that S\u00e1nchez is privileging the Chinese communist dictatorship in his international visits<\/a>, a dictatorship that has exercised power in mainland China since 1949 with a single-party regime, without free elections, violating human rights and committing one of the largest genocides in history<\/a>.<\/p>\n S\u00e1nchez's authoritarianism in the exercise of power<\/big><\/p>\n Furthermore, S\u00e1nchez has been displaying authoritarianism from power for years<\/a>, violating the separation of powers, attacking judges and free media, seriously damaging the foundations of the rule of law, governing with scandalous opacity<\/a>, turning institutions into employment agencies<\/a> for members and supporters of the PSOE and injuring fundamental rights<\/a>.<\/p>\n With his attitude and his way of governing, S\u00e1nchez is the main promoter of antidemocratic attitudes in Spain,<\/strong> both among the left, to whom he transmits his dictatorial attitudes, and among the right, among whom he promotes the discredit of democratic institutions. If S\u00e1nchez wants to promote democracy, what he should do is call elections and resign.<\/strong> Other European leaders did so with far fewer abuses and corruption scandals than this government. If this doesn't happen in Spain, it's because S\u00e1nchez doesn't believe in democracy, but rather in the idea that anything goes to cling to power,<\/strong> including the destruction of the democratic checks and balances that limit the actions of those in power.<\/p>\n ---<\/p>\n
