L'ideologia comunista avanza in Spagna e in Irlanda

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜http://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=6040L'IDEOLOGIA COMUNISTA AVANZA IN SPAGNA E IN IRLANDA di Mauro FaverzaniL'ideologia comunista avanza in Europa. L'allarme è partito dalla Spagna con la svolta autoritaria assunta dalla Sinistra al potere: il patto di governo Psoe-Podemos ha subito attaccato la Chiesa; fatto "saltare" gli accordi vigenti con la Santa Sede; declassato l'ora di religione nelle scuole, privandola della possibilità di fare media; imposto agli alunni l'educazione «affettivo-sessuale», cavallo di Troia di una mentalità contraccettiva, abortista e Lgbt-friendly; negato ai genitori il diritto di scegliere la scuola per i figli e di indirizzare la loro educazione religiosa.Una nuova bandierina "rossa" è stata ora conficcata in un altro Stato a forte tradizione cattolica, l'Irlanda. Qui i risultati delle elezioni parlamentari, svoltesi lo scorso 8 febbraio, hanno purtroppo registrato un significativo rafforzamento dell'estrema sinistra, rappresentata da ben cinque liste (Sinn Fein, Verdi, Solidarietà-Popolo prima del profitto, Indipendente per il cambiamento, Partito dei lavoratori). Insieme hanno totalizzato il 34,7% dei voti e rappresentano in questo momento la forza progressista più solida d'Europa (in Grecia Syrisa ha ottenuto "solo" il 31,5% dei consensi alle elezioni parlamentari dello scorso luglio), una presenza rafforzatasi peraltro proporzionalmente alla scristianizzazione del Paese.GOVERNO PROGRESSISTAI loro programmi non promettono alcunché di buono. Il Sinn Fein, che nel Parlamento europeo fa parte del Gue-Gruppo delle Sinistre Unite, ad esempio, è un partito fortemente filo-abortista e filo-Lgbt: si è distinto per la foga con cui, in occasione del referendum del 2018, si è battuto per l'abrogazione dell'ottavo emendamento costituzionale, quello che garantiva all'embrione la medesima tutela della madre. E non ha esitato, per lo stesso motivo, ad espellere l'unica voce contraria, quella di Peadar Toibin, che, una volta fuoriuscito, ha fondato una nuova lista totalmente pro-life, denominata Aontu: chiede che venga negata la possibilità di abortire a motivo della disabilità dell'embrione, invoca l'obiezione di coscienza per il personale medico, cure d'urgenza per i bimbi sopravvissuti all'aborto e l'ecografia del bambino, che portano in grembo, per le donne che abbiano deciso di abortire. Ma non è la sola formazione pro-life, questa, del panorama politico irlandese: anche un'altra lista, Renua Ireland, chiede, tra l'altro, una riduzione delle tasse per le famiglie, di fermare la propaganda abortista e filo-Lgbt nelle scuole, nonché di bloccare la pornografia su Internet, considerata qual è ovvero un abuso su minori.Di contro, il governo progressista guidato in Irlanda da Leo Varadkar, primo premier dichiaratamente omosessuale ed anti-cattolico, si è distinto per aver introdotto le "nozze" gay, facilitato il divorzio e cancellato il reato di blasfemia, tutti provvedimenti approvati a colpi di referendum.LA VIA ELETTORALE OPPURE I TUMULTI DI PIAZZACome in America Latina, anche in Europa, laddove le forze di Sinistra non riescano a strappare il potere per via elettorale, ci provano con i tumulti di piazza. Così accade in Francia, ad esempio, dove anche quest'anno sono attese centinaia di anarchici a sfilare per le strade di Montpellier in occasione del Martedì Grasso per il cosiddetto «Karnaval dei Mendicanti», nonostante la manifestazione sia stata vietata da diversi anni per i danni e per il degrado provocati ogni volta: bidoni della spazzatura dati alle fiamme, vetrine in frantumi, negozi saccheggiati, scontri con la Polizia, il solito festival dell'eversione messo in scena ogniqualvolta vengano organizzate manifestazioni di questo tipo, insomma. Che vengano emanate disposizioni senza poi essere in grado di farle rispettare ricorda tristemente le «grida» manzoniane e denuncia tutta l'impotenza di un sistema politico privo di credito, di autorevolezza e disarmato di fronte alla violenza cieca ed all'arroganza delinquenziale dalla chiara matrice politica, quella di estrema Sinistra. L'anno scorso, ad esempio, tutto si risolse con soli 6 arresti a fronte del centinaio di criminali assiepati nel Boulevard de Strasbourg.Questa recrudescenza comunista in Paesi-simbolo del Cattolicesimo europeo rappresenta un segnale da non sottovalutare, soprattutto perché frutto, in Spagna ed in Irlanda, di un consenso popolare espresso per via elettorale o referendaria, dunque sintomo di un mutato clima civile, politico e culturale, quanto mai pericoloso, specie in prospettiva...Nota di BastaBugie: Luca Volontè nell'articolo seguente dal titolo "Le tre mosse (anticristiane) del governo Sanchez" racconta come dal 13 gennaio 2020 si sia insediato il nuovo esecutivo di sinistra guidato da Pedro Sanchez e in pochi giorni ecco tre atti contro la libertà. Primo, la lotta contro il pin parental, perché secondo l'esecutivo "i figli non appartengono ai genitori". Secondo, l'accelerazione sull'eutanasia. Terzo, il tentativo di mettere le mani sui beni della Chiesa.Ecco l'articolo completo pubblicato su La Nuova Bussola Quotidiana il 1° febbraio 2020:Non sono passate nemmeno tre settimane dalla nascita ufficiale del secondo governo Sanchez, avvenuta lo scorso 13 gennaio. E già il nuovo esecutivo spagnolo - formato da socialisti, comunisti e Podemos - ha fatto tre mosse per imbavagliare genitori, persone sofferenti e Chiesa. Non c'era da aspettarsi altro, e tuttavia colpisce il dinamismo sinistro con cui il nuovo governo si è messo all'opera.Il primo "casus belli" è nato a seguito della proposta di prevedere nel sistema educativo della regione della Murcia, governata da una coalizione di centrodestra (Popolari, Ciudadanos e appoggio di Vox), che i genitori siano informati dei programmi scolastici extracurriculari delle scuole ed eventualmente possano far valere il diritto umano di rifiutare tali programmi per i propri figli (il cosiddetto pin parental, "controllo genitori"). La possibilità di scelta, ovvero il riconoscimento del diritto dei genitori, è stata invocata dopo i pericoli di indottrinamento in alcune scuole riguardo all'educazione sessuale e ideologia di 'genere'. L'accettazione della proposta da parte del governo della Murcia, il 17 gennaio, ha spinto il ministro per l'Educazione, Isabel Celáa, a impugnare la decisione per via giudiziale: da qui la polemica feroce che infiamma le radici della convivenza civile spagnola.Lo stesso Sanchez, nella sua prima intervista televisiva alla Tv pubblica, ha rincarato la dose contro la libertà educativa e i diritti dei genitori: "Cose da ultra destra... un modo per evitare i problemi reali, un tentativo di esautorare la comunità educativa spagnola". Ancora più chiara la già citata Celáa: "Non possiamo pensare in nessun modo che i figli appartengano ai genitori, noi difenderemo il diritto dei minori di pensarla in maniera diversa". Sulla stessa linea il ministro dell'Uguaglianza, Irene Montero, che ha definito il pin parental una censura educativa e un frutto del machismo: "Una famiglia omofoba non ha diritto che i figli vengano educati con lo stesso spirito omofobo".Diversamente da ciò che traspare dalle dichiarazioni di Sanchez e dei suoi ministri Celáa e Montero, la Costituzione spagnola non include il proclama sul comunismo di Bucharin del 1919, che al paragrafo 79 diceva che "il bambino appartiene alla società; [...] il diritto dei genitori di educare i propri figli, da un punto di vista socialista, non ha fondamento". Nella Costituzione spagnola si dice invece (art. 27.3) che si riconosce il diritto dei "genitori affinché i loro figli ricevano una formazione religiosa e morale conforme alle proprie convinzioni". Con sentenza del Tribunale Costituzionale del 1981, si limita la libertà del docente che mai può tramutarsi in indottrinamento. La stessa Corte europea dei diritti umani ha più volte, nel 2007 e in seguito, riconosciuto il diritto della libertà di coscienza dei genitori nel campo educativo, anche nei riguardi di materie curriculari. Una serie di dichiarazioni dell'Onu, tra cui la Dichiarazione universale dei diritti dell'uomo, confermano questo diritto inalienabile dei genitori e della libertà educativa.La violenta reazione all'approvazione del pin parental, strumento amministrativo per rendere effettivi i diritti dei genitori, smaschera il vero scopo del governo Sanchez, cioè di impossessarsi dei figli degli spagnoli e indottrinarli.Davanti a questo pericolo, l'Alleanza evangelica spagnola è scesa in campo con un durissimo comunicato di denuncia, in cui si accusa il governo di voler indottrinare i figli a dogmi ideologici presentandoli come nuove verità assolute. Il 25 gennaio, lo stesso cardinale Antonio Cañizares, nella sua lettera settimanale, non ha mancato di stigmatizzare le gravi affermazioni di Sanchez e di altri esponenti dell'esecutivo ("i figli non appartengono ai genitori"), ricordando non solo che il diritto/dovere dei genitori di educare i propri figli è comunemente accettato, ma altresì che è "solo dei sistemi dittatoriali e delle dittature l'affermare che questo diritto/dovere appartiene allo Stato e che i figli appartengono allo Stato", come già visto nell'URSS, a Cuba o in Cina.In questi stessi giorni, il 29 gennaio, il secondo colpo del governo Sanchez, ossia la confermata proposta della coalizione di sinistra ad approvare in tempi rapidi, e prevedendo obblighi per cliniche pubbliche e private, una nuova legge sull'eutanasia. L'eutanasia attiva, oggi delitto punibile per la legislazione spagnola, era stata oggetto di accordo nel governo e ora la maggioranza ha chiesto una rapida approvazione da parte del parlamento. Il ministro della Salute, Salvador Illa, ha incluso la legge sull'eutanasia come una delle quattro priorità assolute del suo impegno.
