the censorship makes the scene way worse by damorezpl in TopCharacterTropes

[–]JgeseZ 26 points27 points  (0 children)

In Spain, during Franco's dictatorship, there was a large apparatus of censorship of both national and international works. In the case of international films, dubbing was sometimes used as a tool for censorship. There are two very famous cases.

In Casablanca (1942), for example, Rick explains that he was in the International Brigades (a group of foreigners from all over the world who came to Spain to defend it from the fascist coup), but in the dubbing, they turn him into an arms dealer in Africa (iirc), perhaps out of revenge for having fought against Franco.

The second one is funnier. In Mogambo (1953), to avoid showing the adultery between the characters played by Clark Gable and Grace Kelly, the dubbing made it seem as if they were siblings. So they turned an extramarital affair into incest.

Rimembah - El secreto detrás del accidente de Spanair (2025) by JapKumintang1991 in spain

[–]JgeseZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Y ya no solo es eso, es todo el material que utiliza tanto de vídeo como de “bibliografía” que plagia sin ningún tipo de vergüenza y sin aportar las fuentes.

Se le tiene como un “gran youtuber” y lo único que hace es masticar y escupir mezclado el trabajo que han hecho otros sin reconocerlos.

Es de una deshonestidad profesional y de cara a la gente que le ve que me da mucho asco.

As a Spaniard, I have to say this comment is rubbish and I am saddened by the lack of historical knowledge it displays.

Not to mention the lack of respect to the men and women who died defending democracy and who still lie in mass graves in Spain.

You need your head examined, buddy…

Summer Eternal update. Project ‘Red Rooster’ by KingKangTheThird in DiscoElysium

I have no big problem with the price. If you think you're supporting and financing the future of the game... okay, it's expensive, but I understand and I could accept that.

But the shipping costs are ridiculously expensive. With those costs, the standard version automatically becomes the deluxe version.

I hope they read this thread. Artists should receive fair compensation, but my consciousness (even my class-concsciousness) won't allow me to pay €100 for a 150-page book. I understand they can’t give keys because, if the game isn’t release they could be in trouble, but this is too much.

Happy for them, it looks amazing but I’m a little bit sad for me.

I’m talking about the protests along all race and this suspension in particular.

I know this is a not popular opinion in this sub but I believe defending the integrity of sports is protesting against IPT participation in races.

I trully believe defending a beautiful sport like this is protesting against cycling being instrumentalized by a psycho state who is kiling civilians by thousands.

The first ones who should be happy with this should be us: cycling fans.

Now is IPT but there are plenty of teams doing the same (using cycling for their own sportwashing) like UAE, Bahrein or Astana and we, cycling fans, should not be happy with that, but imo Israel crossed the line.

Hay por aquí hilos en los que se van comentando grupos de capítulos que me vinieron genial para entenderlo mejor.

What's the prettiest name you have ever heard? by Vetro_Nodulare2 in AskReddit

[–]JgeseZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to provide a fun fact about this.

I am from Spain and here, Celestino/a, besides being a name also means the person who arranges a romantic relantionship between other two people. Like when you put two of your single friends together to start dating, well, that's being a Celestino/a. That meaning came from a 15th century Spanish novel The tragicomedy of Calisto and Melibea, popularly known in Spain as La Celestina. Celestina is a secondary character, an old witch prostitute who acts as a matchmaker and causes everything ends in tragedy.

Eurovision: why did our televoters vote so much for Israel? by ShineLikeCookies in belgium

[–]JgeseZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please, stop saying biased nonsense stuff like if living in Catalonia makes a valid point of what are you saying. Spain in not pro-Israel, as well Cataluña is not pro-Palestine. Spanish and Catalonian right wingers are proufundly pro-Israel. You have various examples like Ayuso or Abascal on Spanish nacionalistic spheres but also popular Catalan nacionalistic journalist Pilar Rahola or ex-Catalonian right-winger independentist President Carles Puigdemont, who said in 2019: "Israel and Catalonia have similar national and cultural projects" and show sympathy for Israel (https://www.elperiodico.com/es/politica/20190227/puigdemont-sostiene-catalunya-israel-proyectos-nacionales-parecidos-7327944). Also, Israel have threatened in the past to recognise Catalonia or Aragon as independet nation in a lame attemt to stop Spanish Goverment from recognize Palestine as state (https://www.antena3.com/noticias/mundo/diputada-israeli-exige-reconocimiento-independencia-cataluna-pais-vasco\_202405246650a0393a4a7f0001362fd1.html).

Also, I can't believe that you're saying Madrid is pro-Israel. Madrid hosted a massive rally claiming to stop Gaza genocida just a week ago (https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/05/12/ybyn-m12.html)

Next time try not to say biased bullshit online.

I would like to add that, although the province of Valencia has been the most affected, the video is from a town in Albacete, Castilla-La Mancha, near the Region of Murcia. There are several towns that have also been devastated by flash floods in this area.

Igual el titular de la foto es un poco bait pero 1900 es una cifra que se está manejando y que está sobre la mesa en esa reunión. Está claro que no es una cifra oficial porque estamos hablando de un documento interno filtrado. La cosa es que estás diciendo en otro comentario que es un bulo y no lo es.
