Posters, Provocation, Polarization: How Mallorca's Streets Become a Campaign Ground

Answer

Why do political posters in Mallorca sometimes seem more provocative than informative?

Campaign posters are often designed to catch attention quickly, so they may rely on contrast, symbolism, or simplified messages. That can make them memorable, but it can also make them feel more polarising than informative. In Mallorca, where public space is shared by many different communities, that style tends to stand out even more.
