Two layers of electrified, barbed wire, with armed guards to keep a colony secure. Colonialism has never actually ended

Also, they have been spanish for like 400 years. Talking about "giving it back" to Morocco is insane. Hell, technicaly they predate Spain since most historians put the creation of the modern kingdom of Spain in the early XVIII century.

So no, this is not a HK or Puerto Rico situation. I guess it's a "bad look" to have a small city in a separate continent but that's just what it is.

The barbed wire should be removed thought. Fuck the government who put it there and all the ones who haven't removed it.
