The battle of 10-N is going to take place, especially in social networks, with a lot of Catalonia and all the bones of Franco in the rallies. The parties are infected with populism and the approaches will be of that style, with top demagogy and impossible promises. Those on the left will preach parables of the people against the elites and the rights will promise to lower taxes. In the center of the arena, Pedro Sánchez offering progressive, stable government, the left that is not ashamed of the word Spain. To Podemos we have already said that a government cannot be an assembly, Errejón has treated him with respect, he has been packaged with rights on the right-wing stand.

What intrigues me is the relationship between Pedro and Pablo. Pablo Job , submitted to all the tests, was faithful to God and still promises a government of conciliation with the two who betrayed him. Your partners do not breathe like this and expect revenge. Those of IU of Andalusia baptize the president of the Government as Pedro, the Arrogant and bulldog of the system. They send me a text for speakers that says: «The PSOE parachutes on the right, protects the IBX 35 and CEOE. He accuses the United We may want only armchairs and asks for a single color government, with all the armchairs. Pedro has been portrayed as the bulldog of the system ».

Right-wing or left-wing populists have to be granted the success of having led the kennels to those who until now were the wandering hooves of the systems. Marx despised what he called lumpenproletariat. The populists of Ernesto Laclau have placed what they call "the people" at the forefront and now the mob barricades not on the streets, but on social networks. After so many centuries in which politicians and poets despised the inept mob, it demands power. Horacio insults "profane vulgar," despises the applause of the people. "The crowd whistles me but I applaud myself."

I don't know if Pablo is populist or Marxist or has evolved to social democracy. Sometimes he remembers Tersites , one of the first heroes of populism, Achaean warrior. It is not that Paul is like the one that paints Homer -strategic, lame, vulgar, the ugliest of the Greeks- but it is like Tersites, impertinent, because he had the audacity to take the floor, which was the privilege of the kings, descendants of the gods. Odysseus strikes him at the gates of Troy. He is called an outrage who shoots words, but others call him a cynical harangue.
