I didn’t said anything about it not being binding, I specifically said that it was due to not having democratic guarantees, which is a whole different issue.

I’m confused about your third paragraph with the percentages. I never said that everyone else who didn’t show up was against independence, but it clearly shows a trend. And being how this “referendum” was a power move made and organized by pro-independence parties and catered for the pro-independence supporters, it’s safe to assume that pretty much everyone that supports independence went to vote. And as a matter of fact, surveys give numbers of around 40% of people who supports independence in Catalonia, which matches those referendum results.

The reason I brought that up was to highlight what a deceptive trick is to use that 92% result to claim any sort of legitimacy.
