Spain: A Key Node in Ultra-Global Contagion
An investigation has identified Spain as a crucial hub in the spread of ultra-conservative ideologies.
In 2010, Argentina was debating the legalization of gay marriage, becoming the first country in the region to do so. During this time, protests emerged with slogans such as "we kids have the right to a mom and a dad." These slogans echoed the ultra-conservative movement that had attempted to block similar legislation in Spain five years prior.
“If we participate in this cultural battle and reach the consciences and hearts of the people, the majority will continue to position themselves in favor of life, family and freedoms.
Ignacio Arsuaga, founder of HazteOír, was a key figure in this movement, having previously attempted to stop gay marriage in Spain. He later traveled to Buenos Aires to join the opposition, bringing his experience to the forefront of the debate.
