I'm torn between "Every people deserves the right to self-determination" and "Catalunya is richer than Spain, so it's the bourgeosie wanting to split off from the poors and pay less tax"

Hot take but Catalonian isn't even a dialect, it looks like it's just an accent. If you go on catalunyan wikipedia it is identical to spanish with just minor spelling differences (that they seem to forget to use occassionally). Like if Catalunyan is a language then New Yorker and Bostonite are languages.

Catalan isn't even from the same branch of Western Romance languages as Castillian. That's just ignorant.

I consider all modeen Romance languages to just be dialects of Latin.

I'll stop being smug towards Romance languages when their speakers stop trying to genocide every non-Romance language they come across.
