The Department of Culture of the City Council of Bezana directed by vox with the approval of the mayor Carmen Perez Tejedor (PP), has decided censor the screening of the film ‘Lightyear’ at the local summer cinema for the scene in which they appear two women kissing.
According to ‘eldiario.es’, the council has decided to replace it with ‘Bad Guys’, reprinting all the municipal posters and changing one film for the other. The decision has raised many criticisms on social networks, including that of Adriana Lastra, who describes the PP as “a danger to freedom.”
This decision comes in a week in which Vox has intensified its crusade against the LGTBI flag, with Juan Garcia-Gallardo, vice president of the Junta de Castilla y León, calling her a “rag”. We have also seen how in town halls such as Mérida, the ultra-right wants to remove that flag, hiding behind “what the Supreme Court says”, a false premise.
As the journalist Alfonso Pérez Medina explains, the Administrative Litigation Chamber ruled in 2020 on the so-called Canarian national flag, establishing that an unofficial flag cannot be placed next to the official flags, but leaving the door open for them to be placed anywhere else on the façade.
The truth is that it is not the first controversy surrounding this film, which It was banned at its premiere in 14 countries. from the Middle East and Asia for that same kiss. In the case of the Office of Media Regulation of the Ministry of Culture and Youth of the United Arab Emirates, they hide behind the fact that Disney had not allowed them to cut parts of their film.
There were also Latin American cinemas that warned that this film contained “gender ideology”. The ‘Washington Post’ came to collect that some Disney executives asked Pixar to remove the scene, something to which the company refused. “We’ve had the full backing of the studio,” said Angus MacLane, the film’s director.
To me it doesnt seem as PP is that Christian. Many years ago, of course, but i think they have begun to transform to at least be able to respond to PSOE. Of course VOX is really scary, but there have been so many autonomic comunities which have had PP’s leathership for years and nothing has happened (as well as with PSOE). Its better if there is at least 2 different parties for them not to be too lazy. Politics are really bad at Spain, too much corrupcion from all parties.
Well, “christian” parties are usually not very christian. Fundamentalist sometimes, yeah, but not very christian. And here in Germany, the CDU (the Christian Democracts) were composed mostly out of fascists that survived the denazification, so they played the conservative game for most of the past decades and now are sympathizing with the alt-right. Christians my ass.
