The Catalans experienced a sort of stage 3-4 Culture Cancer in their past.

Between 1939 and 1975 Catalonia was under the dictatorship of Franco. A terrible idiot ruling over the entire Spain, but who was particularly anti Catalonia and anything that has to do with Catalonia. He was violent and banned the Catalonian language, alongside other languages in Spain. Only the Spanish language was accepted!

No one in Catalonia was allowed to write books in Catalan, even speak Catalan. They were under a complete siege. A total destruction of their culture is what this douchebag wanted.

In one of the Catalonian towns they shouted: “Catalan dogs! You are not worthy of the sun that shines on you.”

Needless to say Franco’s hatred against Catalans was nuclear. Many got killed, most of them oppressed and imprisoned. Fear, anxiety, how the fuck can you live like this?

Luckily after nearly 4 decades of terror that idiot died and with him his powers. Catalonia regained its culture, language, institutions, a regional independence and so on. For several decades they have tried to unglue themselves from this Spaniffication.

As you can see there was a lot of trauma when it comes to the people living in Catalonia.

So maybe this is the reason why some people in Catalonia are so desperate to hold onto their language and culture, and as a result marginalize the outsiders?

I consider what is happening in Catalonia as an example of stage 0 Culture Cancer. Post cancerous. Localized, mostly treatable.

The Catalans are quite angry at the “outsiders” who do not put in the effort to learn Catalan, or care about the Catalan culture and community. They try to forcefully speak Catalan regardless if the others understand or not, and refuse to speak Spanish at times. They marginalize the outsiders and create a tense situation.

And the “outsiders” hate the Catalans and their “tribalistic” and rude attitudes. Or simply do not give a fuck about Catalonia in general, and whatever is happening there, making the locals even angrier at them.

The mix is anger, discomfort, separation, marginalization. From both sides.

However, this cannot be too much of a generalization. This is mostly happening in smaller villages from my knowledge, or very touristic regions.

Most people in Catalonia seem to be nice and decent people overall. Most will speak Spanish if you only know Spanish. My doctor even speaks English just to make it easier for me, even if is a bit harder for her. Granted she is not even from Catalonia. But she tries to speak Spanish, Catalan, and English.

However you do feel a tension between the Catalans and the rest.

You just feel it…

In Catalonia they provide courses for “immigrants” to learn Catalan so they can integrate into the society. We know many Moroccans who take these courses, and sometimes they can even get benefits from taking them.

But then if you look at their Muslim culture it has nothing to do with the Catalan one. So what if they know Catalan? Does that mean they are vessels of the Catalan culture? Of course not.

Don’t get me wrong is good to help people integrate, if they so wish, but don’t regard it as if these people are bending to the culture, since it can be vice-versa and they can lead to the mutation of culture. From USA to Catalonia and everywhere else.
