Spain’s socialist-led coalition government has approved a decree it said would regularise 500,000 undocumented migrants and asylum seekers, rejecting the anti-migration policies and rhetoric prevalent across much of Europe.
Nobody expects the Spanish coalition!
The ones crying harder are the ones that have workers without papers.
I’m sure some rightoids will be mad, but if you don’t want people to migrate, you shouldn’t have colonized their homelands.
I don’t think that would have prevented migration. People have always migrated and always will.
People have always migrated, but modern mass migration is a result of the economic extraction & resulting instability being so extreme that someone with minimal opportunities in Spain can make more money than your average person in a colonized country.
It’s not uncommon for migrants going from having middle class jobs (teachers, small business owners, etc) to cleaners and still having money to send home to support their family.
Additionally many people will migrate to Spain, England & France because their language is widely used in colonized nations.
People from the countries we colonized find it really easy to come here legally. I don’t have exact figures, but I’m sure most are Moroccan or from other African countries.
Edit: I am Spanish, in case the context wasn’t clear.
Morocco was colonized by Spain, as were several other places in Africa, hell the Conquest of the Canary Islands was the first instance of European genocidal settler colonialism in Africa.
waow
Unfathomly based.
waowawuia, babooei!
