Spanish PM giving up on wildfires, floating toward the light, seeing every memory in slow motion

The disembodied voices of his grandparents announced "it's okay Pedro", speaking from the end of the tunnel.
I'm not from Spain so I can't know for sure, but I feel their government is close to what social democracy can achieve with the best possible intentions. Unless you mobilize the working class and tear down the foundations of capitalism, any government no matter its intentions can't do shit if it means that capitalists get to lose, you must let the wildfires rip so the capitalists don't turn you into another Allende overnight
Tbf the reason Spain and much of Europe have the degree of social democracy that they do owes to the fact that they had a bloody good go at tearing it all down. Universal healthcare, social security et al are the concessions that were made to win the peace after the fascists won. The original PSOE were gangsta
Shoutout to good intentions's commitment to high quality accessible public transportation to hell.
