Steamy Lesbians: Barcelona Sauna Expels Two Canadians for Wearing Star of David

It peine in Barcelona, but could have occurred in any identity politics district across Europe. A Catalan lesbian collective organized an event called "Steamy Lesbians," closing a lgtb sauna for exclusive female use. Two Canadian women attempted to enter; one wore a Star of David pendant. According to witnesses, a group of attendees harassed them, accusing them of Zionism, and with management's help, expelled them.

The UAB Professor and Activist Lawyer

According to several sources, the apparent leader was a professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB). Marta Busquets, a lawyer and activist, has also been identified as one of those chanting "Free Palestine" in the video. Busquets is part of the Catalan cultural elite with influence in administration, explaining how quickly the incident went viral.

Antisemitism or Identity Posturing?

The debate is on: is this antisemitism or simply the stupidity of a group of women who prioritized politics over desire? Some analysts note that if it had been two lgtb men in a lgtb sauna, it likely would have ended in sens rather than conflict. But lesbians, according to this dynamic, prioritize political agendas over sensual impulse. The result: two Jewish tourists out and a scandal sweeping social media.

Historical Links Between Catalan Nationalism and Zionism

It is no coincidence that the incident occurred in Catalonia. Jordi Pujol, former president of the Generalitat (regional government), acknowledged in the prologue to the book "Jordi Pujol and the Jews" that Zionism influenced his nationalist ideology. The ties between Convergència i Unió (CiU) and Israel are historic. Therefore, a group of anti-Zionist lesbians expelling Jewish women in Barcelona carries an irony lost on no one.

The case remains open: the two Canadians have not filed a complaint, and the organizers stated only that they "do not allow symbols of oppressive states." In reality, despite being dressed up as activism, the scene looks more like casting for the next dystopian proge series than an act of resistance.
