Video dedicated to Maricarmen (and her dolls)

An X user has posted a video presenting it as 'the very fascist version' of a previous action in Madrid's Puerta del Sol, under the slogan 'La Santa Cruzada Libera Sol' (The Holy Crusade Frees Sol). The piece builds on an earlier video about the liberation of the square by 'the gods by Cibeles Neptuno'.

Madrid's Puerta del Sol is once again the setting for an audiovisual piece circulating on social media. An X user has published a video which, according to its own text, responds to the criticism received by a previous instalment. That earlier one, always according to the author's description, showed the 'liberation' of the square by figures he identified as 'the gods by Cibeles Neptuno'.

## A 'fascist version' as a response to the criticism

The text accompanying the video is explicit about its intent: it offers 'the very fascist version for those who have criticised it'. The post therefore came after the first instalment drew reproaches. The author does not detail how many people have seen the video or how many criticised the previous one. Nor does he specify the publication date of either piece.

The chosen slogan is 'La Santa Cruzada Libera Sol' (The Holy Crusade Frees Sol). The expression mixes the language of the medieval crusades with a reference to a specific public space, the Puerta del Sol, the epicentre of demonstrations and rallies in Madrid. The author adds that those who criticised the first instalment 'now have reasons', without specifying what those reasons are.

## Religious symbols and politics on social media

The piece strings together religious and political references: gods, crusade, liberation. This is not a new combination on social media, where short videos with epic aesthetics are used to amplify ideological messages. The author does not clarify whether the video contains footage of the square or whether real people appear in it.

There is also no data on its reach. The post provides no figures for views or interactions. The only verifiable elements are the accompanying text and the existence of a previous instalment about the same location.

## What is known and what is not

There is no record of any institution reacting to the post. Nor is there confirmation that the previous video existed beyond what its author claims. The Puerta del Sol is a place with strong symbolic weight in Spain, and any piece that uses it as a setting tends to be amplified.

The text does not mention Maricarmen or her dolls, even though the title of the topic includes them. That reference does not appear in the cited post.
