If it was a civilian city with families of both religions going back generations and only maintained a garrison of 200 police and and soldiers, and was recognized by treaty with Morocco as Spanish would it still have to be returned to Morocco because it's on the wrong continent?

im not denying the nuance of the issue. im just highlighting the fact that its a very real walled border between the EU and Morocco/North Africa and a legacy of Spanish colonialism. There are contradictions here.

but what irks me most is that I feel like a lot of people are jumping on the issue on spain's side and making it is as if it is an anti-zionist/anti-US bulwark in the EU. making the issue all about israel, while there is an important component of Spain/EU v Algeria v Morocco geopolitical maneuvering related to energy/gas.

a civilian city with a giant ass wall that if you were born feet outside of it you could be shot and stacked up with other dead bodies for trying to go inside of it.

Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
