Legislative initiatives are the wolf's paw in the story of the seven little goats. They teach the true ideological nature of a government. So it should not be overlooked that the anointing of Pere Aragonès as a candidate to preside over the Generalitat again coincides with the presentation to society of the text of the preliminary draft of the Catalan trans law. Coincidence or not, there are the facts. And also the statements that can be deduced from these. For example this: Irene Montero and the entire queer theoretical corpus, expelled from the Pedro Sánchez Government, now inhabit the body of Pere Aragonès.
A few days ago, public opinion responded unanimously favorably to Pedro Sánchez's announcement to legislate to prevent porn from creeping onto the screens of children and adolescents with the argument that they are immature people who are not prepared to face whatever type of porn. of pictures.
Well, in parallel, the Government of Catalonia turns twelve-year-old children into super-adults with its draft trans law, demanding that the will of the children prevail when they decide that they want to transform their administrative identities and bodies.
If the family does not agree, the Generalitat will propose a mediator. But not to mediate, but to ensure that “the final decision respects the opinion of the minor.” The image of a government kidnapping children from families is no longer a dystopia. In fact, parents opposing certain decisions or adopting the child's point of view will be, returning to the law, an exercise in “family violence” that will authorize the administration to act. In paladin Roman: the effective father of all the children of Catalonia will be called, if the law passes, Pere Aragonès.
The text proposed by the Catalan Executive includes, of course, all the aspects that already generated debate when the Spanish trans law was processed and approved. In Catalonia you can compete in sports in the category that each person decides, just by stating that you are what you say you are because you feel that way. And period. The same applies to the use of toilets, serving sentences in prisons and the long etcetera of cases derived from the legal nonsense involved in putting into practice the queer theoretical embarrassment, consisting of simply assuming that one is what one is. says to be
Still, trifles. Because the true authoritarian face of the Generalitat appears, as in the Spanish trans law, in the sanctioning regime, which represents a real threat to freedom of expression and opinion. In fact, if this draft law were to come into force one day, an article like this one – in which there is a line that states categorically that gender self-determination is nonsense from an intellectual and scientific point of view – may not be able to be written.
Because the Office of Equality of Treatment and Non-Discrimination of the Generalitat will be there to act, ex officio or after a complaint, to take administrative action against those who step out of line with regard to what the administration itself considers offensive or vexatious.
And since we already know how thin their skin is when it comes to accepting contrary opinions or simply criticisms of their worldview, any statement that goes out of line could justify the launch of the team of officials, interim and temporary, with a vocation for thought police to reward one and the environment that welcomes their reflections with an administrative sanction.
A way to coerce and impose much less guarantee than a criminal procedure, which is how these issues should be resolved, given that we already have a hate crime in the Penal Code. Of course, the crime must be proven and the feeling of offense that each individual may experience individually when faced with words and writings that are not to his or her taste is of no use.
With the trans-Catalan law proposed by Pere Aragonès, Catalonia would honorably enter the era of gagging. This is how we start the pre-campaign.
