At the WEF, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez calls for the end of anonymity on social media by forcing them to link all user accounts with the European digital identity wallet.
A politician from one of the modern countries that still imprisons people for lese-majesty wants to end social media anonymity? Sounds like a great idea!
If you offend the royal family you can get punished. There was a case some year back about a rapper that sought asylum in the Netherlands or Belgium I think, as he risked imprisonment in Spain due to his song lyrics criticizing the royal family. It’s crazy to me that one could seek asylum fron an EU country in a different EU country
To add insult to injury, Spanish Monarchy died ages ago. The house of Borbon is a French monarchy line. When they didn’t want them in France they should have just gone away, not moved to leech off the next door’s neighbor.

What’s crazy is that there’s a risk they’d prosecute someone just for talking shit about the monarchy.
There is a solution to the monarchies problem of people shit talking about them. Don’t be part of a monarchy.
If they need help not being part of the monarchy, I’m sure there is something we can do for them.
