The “Progressive” Ideology Has Led Spain Down A COVID-19 Catastrophe…


Throughout human history, the weak were always willing to subject themselves to any dictator that promised to protect them. The great irony is that there’s never any dictator willing to protect his subjects. Spain is learning this the hard way.

From the Gatestone Institute:

  • A class action lawsuit filed on March 19 accuses the Spanish government — highly ideological by any standard, as the Communist coalition partner, Podemos, was founded with seed money from the Venezuelan government — of knowingly endangering public safety by encouraging the public to participate in more than 75 feminist marches, held across Spain on March 8, to mark International Women’s Day.
  • The Spanish government’s main point man for the coronavirus, Fernando Simón, claimed in a nationwide press conference that there was no risk of attending the rallies on March 8. “If my son asks me if he can go, I will tell him to do whatever he wants,” he said.
  • “Honestly, it seems to me a joke that the government has waited until today, clearly for political reasons, to make this announcement. The Socialist-Communist government has once again put its political interests above the common good. This gross negligence should lead to resignations. — Elentir, Contando Estrelas, March 9, 2020.

Spain is currently suffering from “progressive” hysteria and are relying on central planning to address the COVID-19 epidemic. Their virtue signaling has provided them with a shortcut to serfdom, which essentially paralyzed their entire country. Unfortunately, it’s not just Spain anymore. The hysteria has spread worldwide.

The tragedy is that a weak and frightened people seem to shed few tears for freedom.
