New attack by the independentistas against the Spanish in Mallorca. Young people with a covered face and Esprai in hand have vandalized signs and signs in Spanish of the municipality of Calvià, governed by PP and Vox, that in this legislature they have recovered bilingualism that eradicated the municipal leftist government.
It has been the Mallorcan section of the Youth Independence Organization Nosaltres Sols! the one that has claimed the vandalic attack, crossing out with black paint several official signs in Spanish of this municipality that govern in coalition popular and Vox, where Catalan is no longer imposed as a single language from the change of municipal government in May 2023.
It is a measure for the full equality of the two official Balearic languages that has been criticized by the left and challenged in the courts and that this independence youth collective has not liked either, which has passed to attempt and dirty urban furniture in protest «for the change of political color in the Consistory Calvianer where The new team only approves measures against its own language».
Nosaltres Sols! It is the same group that last January carried out a Harassment campaign and signal against businesses in Mallorca for using Spanish in the establishment.
If at that time the organization, born in 2019 to fight for the «Liberation of the Catalan nation»placed adhesives in the stores of Inca and Lloseta stores with the phrase “This place does not respect Catalan”, Now in Calvià they have performed vandalism and crossed out all kinds of posters in Spanish, from traffic signs to municipal infrastructure signs and everything they have found in their way written in Spanish.
The problem, as is the case with all the groups of this guise, case of arran, is that Anything that is not the imposition of Catalan is understood as an attack on this language. Therefore, they point out that the Calvià government, where both languages are at the same level, organizes very prominent events «where the tongue or ridiculed is cornered ».
And they give the example that the Rei Awards in Jaume of Literature organized by the City of Calvià “are also in Spanish, in addition to the Catalan language.” Therefore, it is not that Catalan is marginalized, but that Spanish is given in turn, something that for this group, as in general for the political formations of the left in the Balearic Islands, is unbearable.
Keep in mind that in the registration form to this independence youth organization they make it clear that «We yearn for some Catalans Païsosindependent, where our nation can remain at peace, free of looting, imposition and deliberate attempts by imperialist states of assimilating and destroying the Catalan nation as a differentiated people ».
Therefore, they claim An exclusive state «where Catalan culture is the common inheritance Of all the inhabitants of our landregardless of its origin. A majority culture in each town, villa and city, from Salsa to Guardamar and Fraga to Alguer. A Catalan and free state ».
After the campaign of harassment against the small local commerce that labels in Spanish, several merchants indicated Complaints before the Civil Guard And entities as we speak Spanish denounced him before the Prosecutor’s Office. To speak Spanish the denounced facts “can be constitutive of a crime of harassment and a crime of hate, contemplated in articles 172 and 510 of the Criminal Code.”
He asked the Prosecutor’s Office to have a complaint, proceed by the Prosecutor’s Office to “initiate information proceedings in order to prove the facts denounced and the purpose of proceeding to investigate their commission and after identifying the authors, proceed against them.”
