Catalonia: The illusion of democracy

On The Illusion of Democracy

Voting is a joke: it’s legal cause it is part of the game by the Power That Be. True freedom is made illegal, as shown above. If voting would really make things change, it would be 100% barred and the cops would be descending in the street…

And that’s what’s happening in Catalonia. The people fight against the power that be (the trigger was the verdict of incarcerating some 13 pro nationalism member, something like that).
