Despite centuries of imperial/colonial history, today Spain is among the most progressive countries in the world: on immigration, social policy, gender equality, workers' rights, LGBT rights, supporting Palestine and Ukraine, etc Yet people from countries ruled by fascist regimes keep slandering it

Western leftists talking on behalf of the *Spanish* citizens of Ceuta and Melilla is such typical colonialist mentality. Pure White Man's Burden stuff. Instead, they could ask themselves why it's Moroccans who are desperately trying to get into Ceuta, and not ceutíes trying to move to Morocco.
