Second Great Spanish Civil War (?)

[grue]

I did not actually believe that the madman would really do it. This is freaking huge. If the cataláns can get their independence, spain is over! Woooo

Also uhm Rajoy can and probably will mobilize the army to stop this and that uhm that could end very badly and I'm kind of a neighbour?? Fuck I don't want to get drafted

Ah so Kosovo can secede but Catalonia can't? Buncha pussy hypocrites # Greaterserbia

it was a simpler time

[Relaps]

this is going to be a huge shit show on the world stage. catalans peacefully vote and demonstrate their intention for independence - Spanish police kick the shit out of them.

Then just as spain prepares for executive order 155, the Parliament votes for independence. So now if Spain flexes muscle it's going to be condemned but spain also can't afford to let them go. Literally can't afford it.

[grue]

that was quite possibly the stupidest display of force I've ever seen even by spaniard standards

Rajoy fucked it all up lol. they could have simpy let the vote go through and then say "yah, but it means nothing", drag out the process till noone gives a fuck anymore

and most cataláns probably didnt want indpendence in the first place

but boy did the spanish government change their minds

[Kentucky Fried]

spain sure has a thing for regions trying to secede
what happened to the whole basque independence thing anyway

the ETA took it too far so independentists progressively lost support

but the basque country is still pretty independent, as much as catalunya was afaik

[Kentucky Fried]

ah alright
i'd say scratch the civil war and just let the result of the next el clasico decide

[grue]

I thought that in spain all political debates were solved through bullfighting

[grue]

ah alright
i'd say scratch the civil war and just let the result of the next el clasico decide

ALSO the basques aren't nearly as rich as the cataláns so not that many people are as keen to become independent and lose spanish/EU support

[fat lesbian]

it’s kind of of pb character but fuck Spain so like critical support and all that
