A painful duty Impresentable
By Antonio Ruiz Vega
Lately I've had to make three obituaries almost straight (remember: that of Damaso Santos Amestoy, that of Ulises Blanco and José Antonio Labordeta), which, at my age, start to worry. The above were my friends, but also those who were not killed. Not so Miguel Moreno y Moreno, who has just died. I mean it was not my enemy, at least not my personal enemy, although I declare here and now enemy of what he represented and what was in life.
may from a godly perspective best to remain silent before a person is no longer with us and, like everyone else, you family, friends, etc. appreciate it and weep. But is that Miguel Moreno y Moreno, and a person is a symbol and is the symbol to which I now want to address. Those who suffer
last dictatorship charge him (apart from the social backwardness, economic cultural and subjected the country to which) the spiritual debasement of an entire people. Other ills, over time, have disappeared or leveling off, but the servile status of the English remains the same, roughly.
Franco could say that we emasculated (a few more than others) and introduced among us a spirit of voluntary servitude that is not on track to disappear. Azaña Manuel said that freedom does not make man better, it does, simply, man. For the same reason, their absence would be prevented. Forty years of repression
made us worse, we were accustomed to humiliation, our dharma to the whims of authority. Taurine changed our condition (the way I wanted Miguel Hernández) for the sheep, both lamented Don José Ortega y Gasset.
That time, an insufferable mediocrity, could not have existed if not for an entire class that was exalted and thrived in the shadow of the dictator. What is called "years after the Franco-sociological. It was the complicity of hundreds of thousands of people that allowed Franco's regime was extended and internalized-as it has been, by the social mass. Because no dictatorship can last 40 years only by force. Even the same Franco (advised not know by whom) once said he aspired not only to win but to convince.
And this "convincing" is perhaps the most ominous of the dictatorship, because to do so had to hobble to dissent, to abolish the freedom of expression and allowed to speak only to those of his rope. Was the permeation dropwise totalitarian which some took place during years, decades on end. Meanwhile, the Democrats had to shut up and when we dare to speak out, we are silenced by force. This was creating an image, an idea of \u200b\u200bSpain, which largely remains.
When other dictatorships ended their publicists were often only be implemented (Rosenberg in Germany, Brasillach or La Rochelle in France, and that they were great writers). Here the dictator died in bed and his aides could be recycled into Democrats and no one will pursue or disturb.
that I know of few or no apology for being the spokesperson of the executioners. People
without which the Franco regime could not continue to exist and function will go down in history as little more than minions of democracy. Gabriel Cisneros remember that no one knows its path clear fascist. While Democrats were suffering real police violence, prison or other social pretermission developed a successful career.
I must say it was my duty. Antonio Ruiz Vega
