Jordi Évole’s interview with Rodrigo Cuevas this Sunday in La Sexta did not leave anyone indifferent. Not only because of the overwhelming personality of the guest, a multidisciplinary artist and folkloric agitator, as he calls himself, but also because he does not mince words when it comes to giving his opinion and responding to those who he considers to be outrageous.
Miguel Bosé was one of the names that came up in Lo de Évole and to whom Cuevas wanted to address at a given moment in the talk. And all because of some statements by the singer in which he assured that citizens had greater freedom during the Spanish transition, and not like now.
“There is a trend now with more and more parishioners that says: ‘Before there was more freedom,'” Jordi Évole stated about that line of opinion that considers that there is less freedom today than during the Spanish transition. To which Rodrigo Cuevas categorically responded with: “It’s a lie.”
And, then, the artist gave Miguel Bosé and his statements during his recent visit to El Hormiguero as an example: “He said: ‘It’s that in the transition we had more freedom than now.’ Boy, how come you didn’t come out forty years ago?
In addition, Rodrigo Cuevas added: “If all that you say about your family when you were caught, that your father forced you to kill a deer… Did it seem to you that this was more freedom than normally raising a child in true freedom? ?â€.
And he wanted to make it clear that “if they lived with more freedom because they didn’t care what happened around them, because that happens with youth, it doesn’t mean that society was freer.”
In fact, the artist gave one of the controversial gags on Tuesday and 13 on gender violence as an example: “It bothers them that, suddenly, there are people who have said: ‘Until now, you’re not going to laugh at me anymore’ . You will no longer be able to make a joke like Tuesday and 13 did about a battered woman, of course not, you will not be able to, because it is not a laughable situation.
