You already know that vivan lascaenas is a political slogan with a complex interpretation that seems to serve both a broken and a torn person. He became famous in the troubled years of the Bourbon reinstatement of Ferdinand VII and symbolized indistinctly the popular reaction to French interference in palace politics here, as well as a certain weariness with the ineffectiveness of the attempts of liberal governments from Riego to Prim, all they disconnected from the popular effervescence and their anguished cry of self-defense requesting more chains instead of empty liberal proclamations. It is a proclamation born from below, the popular cry of despair to which a society is so accustomed that resorts to heartbreaking moaning as a form of emotional expression. Long live the caenas shouted against the attempt to replace a local monarch with another foreign one in Madrid or Valencia while the blacks, the enlightened liberals, were denigrated, it is a gregarious cry that breaks the heart as it has no shirt to split. It is the revenge of the disinherited, if this is the freedom you promise me then long live the shackles. Freedom is not a good, nor an ideological conception that has decisive importance in the history of Spain.
And they are even more amazed when they take the trouble to try to understand us, because they discover that it is the aristocratic elites and the circles of meapilas who entrench themselves behind the sacred flag of freedom. They cannot believe that those who beat a society that had chosen a republic as the path to freedom to the point of sadism, now shamelessly exhibit a filiation and a love for it that they cannot contain except by wearing libertarian hats up to their eyebrows. . They love it as much as I hate it, because they can only express perplexity at such a betrayal of what is their own. They are not stupid and they understand that the acceptance of freedom is nothing more than a derivative of the illiberality of the neoconservatives who have decided to take it as a flag in order to take away its demiurgic power. Bannon and his colleagues in Washington, Johnson in the UK or Miguel Ángel Rodríguez here have decided to claim the word freedom for themselves to prevent their legitimate aspirants from using it as the goal of their aspirations.
And it is that a society that is characterized by its individualistic behavior and that organizes its collective being through symbolic manifestations of what is common, be it the national soccer team, the pasodoble, the Malta Phone Number jota, the muñeira and the weekly via crucis Santa, you are very far from having the minimal conceptualizations and tools to understand what affects you, why and how it affects you. Respond in a rather intuitive and visceral way, you're hurting me and I'm going to shit on your teeth. Freedom is not a good, nor an ideological conception that has decisive importance in the history of Spain. Unfortunate but that's how it is. We accept corrupt monarchs and truculent governments with an ease inexplicable to other citizens around us. French, Germans, Dutch, Danes, and others cannot understand the king on the run or a former president masked in his acronym. They simply cannot, it is an aberrant idea that collides with what has been the driving force of their historical development, the fight for freedom against aristocracies, churches and conventions.
