In solidarity with the rapper Pablo Hasél, and all of the other dissidents fined, arrested, imprisoned and tortured by the spanish state.
The Spanish “transition” was nothing more than the handing over of Francoist power to its “democratic” and “socialist” acolytes, fearing a rupture and a military uprising, as happened in Portugal. In Spain, more than in Portugal, fascism has always remained entrenched in all sectors of power. The all-powerful Franco, executioner of the civil war, was succeeded by the monarchist fool Juan Carlos.
Spain today, pro-fascist, reactionary with political prisoners, rappers and puppeteers convicted of crimes of opinion, accused anarcho-syndicalists, police operations mounted against anarchists and environmentalists, all clearly show the pro-fascist, police regime that the Spanish state has become, an example of repression, intolerance and authoritarianism.
On the day that marks 44 years after the assassination of the anarchist Salvador Puig Antich, at the hands of Franco and the vile garrote, the condemnation of the rapper Pablo Hasél to two years and a day in prison for “promoting terrorism and insulting and calumniating the Crown and the state security services” cannot pass without a response.
We reiterate our solidarity with all of those in the Spanish State who are victims of persecution, repression and intolerance on the part of those who, by the force of the State and Justice, have held power since the carnage that was the fascist victory in the Civil War!
Long live freedom! Long live the freedom of expression and opinion!
