The past that Renaix
In the past, when the French language was the queen of our studies, an emblematic song captivated our souls. ‘Paroles … paroles’, popularized by the charismatic Alain Delon, reminds us that words, even if they sound melodic, are often empty of content. As the composer Gianni Ferrio said, his music traveled around the world, but what is the true essence of the message we transmit today?
The need for autonomy
At present, the Catalan PSOE is presented as a central actor in the political landscape, but with an approach that seems rather a mirage. The promises of collaboration with Madrid are constant, but the real goal seems to be the obfuscation of the self -determination that Catalan society so much wants. The fragility of this ideological control can collapse with the smallest breeze of change, and the voices that claim freedom must be felt strongly.
The fight between parties
The competition between PP and PSOE is transformed into a political battle where Catalonia becomes the currency of change. Both parties dispute power, but their dynamic perpetuates the exploitation of our identity. Catalonia, like a stone in the shoe, becomes the perfect excuse to justify decisions that are not always for the benefit of the Catalan people.
Ideological control as a strategy
Promises of financing and support are often overshadowed by the reality of political decisions. In a context where it speaks of ‘Equality’, the PSOE uses the argument of history to maintain Catalonia in a subordinate position. The idea that we are ‘land of conquest’ resonates as an echo of a colonial past that still persecutes us.
An uncertain future
In the current election period, the speeches of politicians are decorated with promises of investment and return to the economic centrality of Catalonia. However, the reality is that most promises remain in words. The lack of funding and incompetence in the management of infrastructures are evidence of the deep ignorance of Catalan needs.
The criticism of the institutions
The situation of President Puigdemont, exiled for political reasons, reminds us that laws are not always made to be respected. In a context where traditional parties alive each other to maintain control, Catalonia is forced to fight for its voice and identity. The denial of linguistic diversity in spaces such as the City Council of Rubí is a blatant example of a policy that seeks to standardize and silence.
Final reflections
Today’s policy is a reflection of promises that, like the notes of a song, are lost in the air. We need a real transformation that goes beyond words. The struggle for the identity and autonomy of Catalonia is not only a political matter, but also a cultural need that demands to be heard. The future of Catalonia depends on our ability to make our voice heard and to reject the empty promises that only lead us to stagnation.
