More than half of Catalonia wants to stay, why is it bad faith and not calm, rational discussion of purported universal unalienable rights, providing counterexa

  Wanted to stay. I've generally either agreed with or appreciated your points in this thread, but this one triggered a reflex in me which has been honed by Brexit. If we're talking about what a population of people want, we should qualify it with a reference to which poll we are citing. Otherwise it sounds far too agenda-y.

    That is a completely fair ask. Here https://www.diaridetarragona.com/catalunya/Casi-la-mitad-de-los-catalanes-son-independentistas-20190405-0038.html https://www.diaridetarragona.com/catalunya/Casi-la-mitad-de-... you can read that (little) less than half of the 1500 people sampled in March 2019 by Generalitat’s Opinion Studies Centre are in favor of independence. Admittedly even less want no independence in this study, and most are in favor of a referendum.

  Of course these things would be decided by popular vote.
