(some) moroccans stop romanticising Al-Andalus and being modern-day colonialism apologists challenge
#and I'm saying this as someone who romanticises al andalus#listen al andalus might have been better than the other civilizations for some people *at the beginning*#like jewish people definitely had a reason to support the muslims#but then al andalus was full of slavery?#the muslims killed all pagans?#they forced jewish people to wear yellow? they prosecuted christians and jewish people?#hello? they weren't that better than the people who began the reconquista?#which btw started when the north of spain managed to stop the muslims from conquering it#also don't even get me started on the west sahara#it is *not* a part of spain and hasn't been a part of spain since franco died#what it *is* is a territory morocco wants to colonise because they feel like they have ownership over it while the indigenous population#wants to control their own territory#the west sahara isn't spanish nor moroccan don't be disgusting#al andalus#west sahara
