    Fair, however if the strengthing of a Baltic chihuahua weakened, let’s say France, I’d probably hold the position that it was a net benifet. Also Baltic countries are still a part of Europe, whereas Morrocos large exploited population is better positioned for non-nazi change.

    Although this opinion might be biased as I have Moroccan friends of relatives, so I’ve engaged with quite a few my whole life. I can’t say that their political positions aren’t batshit though in my opinion.

    Many simultaneously hold the position that Palestine should be free, Israel and the US are the devil, China-Russia-Iran are the new powers and deserve support… and also their king is the greatest leader on earth and everything he does is great. You may think this is odd and that’s because it is.

      No I don’t think it’s odd, the vast majority of the average hold contradictory positions. Especially when it comes to attachments to their current form of government.

      I really don’t see Morocco actively engaged in settler colonialism and Zionism gaining land and renown, while the mild pro-palestine socdems being replaced by fascists therefore strengthening EU unity and punishing pro-Palestinian voices, is any kind of net benefit. Because maybe in the future Moroccans will finally overthrow their government.

      I don’t particularly care about Spanish reconquista holdings and I despise enclaves, BUT this is a great opportunity to highlight the cruelty of the western system and fracture EU identity.

        I suppose that is fair assessment. Though I do think it’s still important to be a bit careful with critique as to not fall into the xenophobic “arguments” often made by the European rulers.
