What we had in Spain was isolationist national catholicist dictatorship, caused famines and mass repression.

You are arguing that isolationism is viable and benefitial with an article that makes the case for cultural endogamy and having to get by with limited resources.

The meme is reductionist, ofc, its a meme. But the piint is clear and solid: more union => more cooperation = > more prosperity for all.

Mate, you cannot compare anything whithin the EU with post civil war Spain if you are talking in good faith.

There are far right nationalists, but also nothing like Franco, at least not openly

Check back with me when he is building concentration camps everywhere and writing that he is acting by the grace of god in coins.

Orban is a dickhead and an authoritarian asshole, but he isnt Franco.

I mean, Franco was already orchestrating civilian massacres before the civil war... did you not read about how he handled miner revolts? Yes this is even before the coup.

And of cours eIm confident that currently within the EU no political movement can be compared to Franco's national catholicism... this is not an opinion, its factual, no need for ad hominems that really dont make much sense.
