Instead, they have the cynicism to give moral lessons and even to make <strong>statements that, coming from them, deserve the most sinister interpretations<\/strong>. Let's look at an example.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, in a speech at the control session in the Congress of Deputies, <strong>the socialist Mar\u00eda Jes\u00fas Montero, first vice president of the government, stated the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>\"The Popular Party, and Mr. Feij\u00f3o in particular, is afraid of <strong>not making it to the end of the term alive<\/strong>.\"<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Here you can hear his words<\/strong>, spoken during one of those replies to the opposition in which the government never answers what is asked, instead devoting itself to demagoguery and attacking its rivals, in <strong>an increasingly crude way of mocking Parliament<\/strong>, which has the function of overseeing the government's actions:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-media-max-width=\"665\">\n<p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83c\udfa5 Montero, a Ester Mu\u00f1oz: &quot;Miedo es el que tiene el PP, y especialmente el se\u00f1or Feij\u00f3o, a no llegar vivo al final de la legislatura [...] Lo que le ocurre al PP es que no tiene rumbo, ni encuentra el rumbo ni lo va a encontrar porque no tiene proyecto para este pa\u00eds&quot; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zLT3BOrhjg\">pic.twitter.com\/zLT3BOrhjg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Cadena SER (@La_SER) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/La_SER\/status\/1968219305721397498?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 17, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>One could argue that Montero was speaking figuratively, but considering the kind of person the first vice president is, <strong>this sounds more like sinister thoughts out loud<\/strong>.

Obviously, the trend was not about Leopoldo Calvo Sotelo, the short-lived centrist prime minister between 1981 and 1982, but about his great-uncle <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2022\/07\/13\/jose-calvo-sotelo-this-was-the-socialist-crime-that-caused-the-start-of-the-spanish-civil-war\/\">the right-wing deputy Jos\u00e9 Calvo Sotelo, assassinated by members of the PSOE (Spanish Socialist Workers' Party) on July 13, 1936<\/a>, <strong>a crime for which the socialists have never apologized<\/strong> and which was the trigger for the Spanish Civil War, which broke out four days later.<\/p>\n<p>In truth, <strong>the PSOE of today is increasingly similar to the PSOE of 1936<\/strong>, a party with an authoritarian and violent tendency that did everything possible to <strong>generate tension and destroy coexistence among Spaniards, hoping to remain in power<\/strong>. What we were missing now is to see a socialist minister, with a smile on her face, issuing <strong>a warning to the leader of the opposition about the possibility that he may not survive the end of this term<\/strong>. Something that brings to mind - that faculty that the left exercises selectively - <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2022\/07\/13\/jose-calvo-sotelo-this-was-the-socialist-crime-that-caused-the-start-of-the-spanish-civil-war\/\">the threat uttered by the socialist deputy \u00c1ngel Galarza against Jos\u00e9 Calvo Sotelo<\/a> on July 1, 1936, twelve days before he was kidnapped and murdered: <em>\"<strong>Thinking of Your Lordship, I find everything justified, even the attack that deprives you of your life<\/strong>\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, <strong>with this statement the PSOE takes responsibility for what happens to Feij\u00f3o from now on<\/strong>.
