His arrest by the Guardia Civil was part of an operation against various forms of hate crime that was coordinated by Europol and which was carried out in eleven countries. A total of 120 racist and homophobic posts are attributed to the 49-year-old, who is a resident of Palma, uses the name 'Andritxol' and has previously been arrested for the same reason.
Among the messages are: "Navy ships should not rescue blacks from the Mediterranean, let them drown in the sea"; "As a follower of Adolf Hitler, the Hitlerphobia practised by the media pains me to the bottom of my heart; "I have just watched a Leroy Merlin ad on television in which two lesbians were kissing. It seems deplorable to me that this company is promoting homosexuality."
He was given an eleven-month sentence in 2018 for posts such as "In Spain, homosexuals have been given carte blanche; given rights, as they are a minority. The place for homosexuals is in prison."

I can make a good guess, but frankly, I've given up on "political parties". Tribalism is the worst thing about democracy. Left, right, up down... I just don't care anymore. Show me good policy not driven by ideology, and I'll sign up for that. I don't care what tribe you come from 🙄
With those views I wonder which political psrty he'll be voting for?
Handcuffed and led away by female guardia civil officers. Love it!
