Logroño, between demographic antiestéticar and calls to action
A thread online has brought to the fore a perception gaining ground in Logroño, Spain: the mass arrival of immigrants would be transforming the region's social and economic fabric. According to the testimonials, "3,000 villages have already been overrun" and the situation would be "of uncontrollable magnitude". The argument leans on cases like Santo Domingo de la Calzada, where abandoned premises and a majority presence of women with children are described, contrasting with the lack of prospects for local young people.
The replacement narrative
Behind the unease lies the "great replacement" theory: some claim that elites are orchestrating a demographic change to dilute European identity. "They don't want a race war, but a complete replacement", one comment sums up. Critics argue that democracy has been used as a battering ram: "we will use your democracy to destroy your democracy", they recall from a banner seen in London. The conclusion is that "the solution cannot be democratic" and that security forces should take on a war-like role.
Ecoresilience and contradictions
Against the alarmism, a call for "ecoresilience" emerges as a stance of restraint. Yet the thread itself shows a verbal escalation: "traitors" are mentioned within families and a violent solution is advocated. The absence of official data contrasts with the forcefulness of the opinions: there are no figures on jobs, housing or services to support the narrative.
The debate remains open: between those who see a deliberate plan and those who still trust in legal reforms, Logroño reflects a rift that goes beyond the local. Meanwhile, the 3,000 villages cited appear in no official census.
