Unlike a spouse which is one person with a single will and identity, it's not even clear how to decide who is Catalan enough to have a vote in this.

As a Spaniard, I don't think there's any risk of civil war at all. The most that can happen out of this all is a vote of no-confidence in Congress against the government if they overstep.

The reason that isn't done in any election is because, to prevent people from voting twice, each voting station needs a list of the people that are supposed to vote there.

The judge in Catalonia doesn't mind what it seems to you or anyone: her job is to interpret and apply the law. As the Supreme Court did, e.g., when they sent a Ministro del Interior to prison. The law isn't written by the Spanish

If you're talking about the situation in Spain, you're very misinformed. The judiciary police isn't doing anything at all based on people's political preference. That would be flagrantly illegal.

It's perfectly correct and legal to discuss it within Spain too. (And it's been discussed non-stop for years). The app ban is a court in Catalonia preventing some public servants to keep using their positions and public funds to g
