Every time the national television announced some big special bullfight or soccer game, my mom will scream, FASCISTS AT WORK!!!
No wonder, she lived thru the executions young people while "the biggest bullfight of the decade" or the "the game of the century" draw the attention of people, and the government took the lives and freedom of hundreds of people.
Most, people felt no need to say anything, it was no them who were being affected.
Every time, the fascist government of Franco decided to have some special law that will erode the little freedom left, a special sporting event was created and broadcasted as if the planet had stopped. Those manipulations did not passed easy by many, who understood how easy is to manipulate populace opinion, those few fanatics endorsers from home and abroad continue the self feeding fanaticism of nationalism via second or third tier issues.
There is not breakthrough on what we are seing today around the planet in the way the news trickle down in to the populace. It is such global mislead the way issues of importance are treated, what we are receiving is propaganda, it is dangerous at minimum and treaterous if fully investigated. As citizens who have to make decisions about who govern us, we have lost a grip in the truth, there is not way to rationalize the preset news or accept them as the truth.
Humans have the tendency to eliminate -kill- each other, mostly with sentiments emanated from simple ideas, one idea is the need for greed, other is power to subjugate others and the last is material enrichment.
Most social philosophies as religion, pay homage to those actions by branding them as pernicious to humans and their societies, forgetting what the consequences are for abiding to greed, lying, killing for enrichment and doing harm to others. It is a dangerous behavior that always comes with strong punishment. Time will to continue to be harsh the judge, and pardon never arrives on time.
