Summary
King Felipe VI of Spain faced a hostile crowd in Valencia, where unprecedented floods have devastated communities, leaving over 200 dead and many missing. Footage shows protesters shouting “murderer” and “shame” at the king, with some throwing objects and mud as he walked through the affected area of Paiporta.
It’s long past time for monarchs to be a thing of the past
Start with Chucky since he especially doesn’t deserve it.
Footage shows an angry crowd shouting “murderer” and “shame” at the king, who was also asked why nothing had been done to avoid the tragedy.
Damn right. Fuck monarchies.
There’s still a king of Spain?
Yes, the monarchy was reestablished after General Franco’s (fascist) Nationalists won the Spanish Civil War against the Republicans and Socialists (and Communists and anarchists, all in their separate groups) back in the 1930’s.
In other news, Spain still has a King and Queen.
The fuck???
Once I was the king of Spain, now I eat humble pie
Hey Clinton! Hey Yeltzin! Got problems? You phone me!

Your ignorance is overwhelming
Have you ever been to Spain? It is one of the most livable countries in Europe. Madrid has become the most desirable capital city in Western Europe in the last few years. The road and rail networks are superior to most developed countries. The healthcare system works better than almost any country you can point at. Its banks, construction companies, universities are some of the best and largest in the world.
How is Spain backwards?
Disclaimer: I am not, nor have I ever been, Spanish
They raped, murdered and pillaged my ancestors and up until the but very distant past. So pardon me for holding a grudge
Much more recently, Germans put a bunch of my ancestors in ovens. I don’t hold a grudge with the ones who had nothing to do with it (i.e. almost every German alive today).
Yeah man, my ancestors were raped, murdered, and tortured by a European country in the XX’th century.
I don’t hold this generation accountable for the crimes of their forefathers.
Move on
