    Correction:

    Croatian military prevents illegal border crossing.

    The last decade have been ridiculous, migrating to the EU is not a human right.

      Wonder why they’re migrating

      Perhaps it has something to do with the past few centuries of brutal colonization by western Europe and Japan, the ongoing neocolonialism of the Global South, the coups, sanctions, and invasions by imperial core countries whenever a “former” colony tries to escape this imperialism?

      Nah, I’m sure they’re doing it for no reason.

        The fact that climate change hurts Global South countries the most also probably has nothing to do with it.

          You mean like the European followed the rules of the local peoples when they went to conquer the world, right?

          Or you mean, if you have the power and weaponry you can do whatever you want to other peoples and noone can judge you.

          Wise words, you must be a wise guy.

            Wow, you wasted a lot of time making a comment that just says “Europe bad”.

            Yes, Europe did a lot of horrific shit in the past, but remember that two wrongs doesn’t make a right.

              in the past

              Currently funding and supporting a genocide through the colony in Palestine to keep it subjugated.

              I’m guessing you’ll be saying fascist shit like this in the future too when these victims eventually have to immigrate to the regions not destroyed by imperialism — that is, Europe — cuz of this?

              two wrongs

              What “wrong”? Migrating to stay alive?

                The Palestine situation is absolutely horrific, and Europe needs to pull all funding from Israel to stop the genocide.

                That being said, I have no idea what you mean when talking about a colony in Palestine, Israel is it’s own country.

                Migrating to stay alive?

                The woman in the article was from Morocco, if she fled foe her life the first avaliable country not directly threatning her should be where she requests asylum, else she is an economic migrant, and should go through the normal process.

                Claiming this to be fascist just waters down the word.

                  So why should this woman from Morocco not come here? What’s the reason behind that ruling you support so passionately. You claim it’s not racist/fascist. So give us the reason.

              It’s not only “Europe bad”. It’s more like the Europeans all over world (call them white if you want) feeling entitled to behave like shit against the rest of the world. Committing genocide in every country they like to settle themselves.

              And that’s not the past, that’s how we rule the world until today. And every day we prove to the world that our accomplishments like democracy or human rights are not for Non-Europeans.

              You’re right, Europe did horrific things.

              But migration for the pursuit of happiness (like a job and education for your children) isn’t a horrific thing. At all! It’s just normal human behavior since the beginning of time.

              In the contrary, comparing it with committing genocide after genocide, like you do, is a horrific thing.

              Freedom of movement is a human right! Everywhere. For everyone. In every direction!

              Congratulations on learning that present systems exist in the context and foundations of what came before.

              And the EU has indeed invaded Libya in the recent past though NATO.

                That operation was requested by the UN, NATO was asked to perform it, I don’t remember the EU taking part, though some member nations did.

      Migrating to the EU is not no, but due process is. Having items seized (in the way the article also describes) would qualify as an abuse of power.

      People have the right to apply for asylum.

      The police does not have the right to inflict undue violence on prisoners.

      We can discuss, under what conditions someone is allowed to migrate to a country, but both the right to asylum, and to fair treatment by the police, should be basic requirements for a free democracy.

      It is quite clear that many of us often seem to fail at meeting these requirements.

      I would say it is. Freedom of movement is a human right. Everywhere. For everybody. In every direction.

      You know, for several centuries now took it as our god given right to go wherever we want, take what we want, settle where we want.

      And extreme few European immigrants bothered with learning the languages of the indigenous people or adjusting to their customs and traditions.

      So I consider this a time to give back and that we don’t have any right to turn this people away.

      And our behavior is the perfect prove that we’re still the same assholes that we’ve been throughout history, and us talking human rights and democracy is just bullshitting around.

        No country on earth will ever allow unrestricted immigration, and they shouldn’t, their first duty is to their own citizens, not to let migrants in.

        EU countries have embassies in Morroco, she should have contacted them and applying for migration permission.

        I don’t understand why these concepts are hard to grasp.

      That stands. Using force if they refuse to go back is also fair. The thing I don’t understand is why the fuck are they stealing/destroying their phones and passports?

        Because then you can’t prove where they came from and even if they tell you their country of birth, without actual evidense it is very hard to send them back
