EDATV Social Media Erupts Against Terrassa City Council's Carnival Poster
The image, which shows a bishop on all fours in high heels in front of a crowd, has caused strong disapproval among the locals.
The Recent Carnival Poster of Terrassa Has Sparked a Major Controversy in the Catalan City. The image, which shows a bishop on all fours with high heels in front of a crowd, has caused strong rejection among the residents.
The controversy centers on the depiction of a religious leader in a humiliating and provocative posture. Additionally, the inhabitants of Terrassa have expressed their disapproval of the fact that the image was created by Artificial Intelligence. A detail that has added more criticism.
The Poster, Designed to Promote the 2025 Carnival, Has Become a Hot Topic on Social Media. Where citizens have expressed their discomfort. Some users describe the poster as "offensive" and "disrespectful" toward the Catholic community.
In reply to this outrage, the Observatory for Religious Freedom and Conscience has initiated a petition requesting that the municipal government withdraw the poster.
The VOX Spokesperson in Terrassa, Alicia Tomás, Has Been One of the Main Figures Condemning the Image. According to Tomás, the image in question represents "a gratuitous offense to believers," with a clear purpose of "mockery" toward the Catholic faith.
Tomás has also denounced that the attitude of the PSC-governed City Council reflects "the persecution against Catholics, a practice supported by the institutions." Tomás has recalled recent cases, such as the controversy over the TVE chimes, where Catholics were also ridiculed without consequences.
VOX has demanded that the City Council put an end to "sectarianism" and what they consider an attitude of "institutional Christianophobia." The political party maintains that the local government should not fund with public money "offenses to Catholics," and has made it clear that they would not allow the same with other religions.
This stance has been supported by many citizens of Terrassa. Who consider that the local government has crossed a line by allowing this type of representation.
Meanwhile, the City Council of Terrassa has not issued any official reply to the criticisms from VOX and other sectors of the population. However, some defenders of the poster claim that it is an artistic expression and a way to challenge traditional norms.
