Yes, I’m familiar with that part of your legislation.

Approximately everyone else here except for you sees AfD as a target for banning because “they’re radical far right”. No, sorry, bad idea.

Even banning an anti-democracy party at first might be a bad idea. Better go figure out why is anyone voting for them.

Banning an anti-democracy party is an absolute last-resort measure. It only exists in Germany because this is how Hitler came to power, so the idea is to prevent that scenario from repeating. I can see the point, however it is yet to be proven that such bans would actually help preserve the democratic order.

Oh yeah, that last implication certainly is full of polite implying. I’m honored.

You know what I see? Someone who’s afraid that their world order will change. And their solution is “lock them up while we’re in the majority”.

You know what I also see? A failed German re-unification, extreme arrogance of the west Germans towards east Germans, a bouquet of additional socio-economical problems that have been ignored for decades. And a consequent voters’ revolt.

And their solution? Tell all those angry people that they’re nazi and their problems will continue being ignored. I’m sure that will solve it.

The party in question, AfD, is fuckin scary. They, in fact, are openly nazi. And, yet, I promise you, banning them and continuing to ignore the underlying issues will only make things worse.

I feared that would be the answer. I’d go on a vacation to Paris with my “guardian” and poison him there.

ah, ok, tell me please, what exactly do you see right through? I wanna know. For research purposes. (And to report it to the headquarters, so we could improve our sabotage operation).

You can only ban them if they seriously threaten the democratic order. Which some of their members might claim to want to do, but so far the whole party hasn’t shown much of action in the direction.

If you do ban your political opponents because “now they need to reorganize and won’t get money”. You will only strengthen their point that the current democratic order cannot be trusted and that their voters are ignored by the system. You will turn 10% of hardcore voters and 20% of rebel voters into 30% hardcore voters.

And then good luck to you with having any democracy whatsoever. Or do you plan to maybe institute a special democratic police and jail everyone with antidemocratic views? What about jailing some 30% of a certain region of your country? How do you imagine this will go down?

While our regulations and social security make us the most desirable immigration destination.

We should focus more on investing in technology, but that doesn’t mean that we need to deregulate to allow uber/amazon type of companies to grow here. They’re not a public benefit.

Just like their european friends. Or, I mean, they’d wish they could.

They banned NPD and AFD happened.

All you’ll get is a new party filling up the political vacuum and their audience being even more die-hard radicals.

In a democracy where some 30% vote nazi, banning them won’t solve anything. Anything.

No, I won’t shut up, because you and people like you are part of the problem. If you think the solution is to jail and ban your political opponents, I got bad news for you.

As a lesson to every self-respecting woman: leave that country as soon as you reach an age of independence.

Good point, but as pointed out, private schools pay very, very well.

USA is a bit of an outlier, in most others developed countries you’ll do absolutely fine even working in a public school. Not so much in the developing countries. But there private schools are even more widespread.

You live in a developing country that has “recently” ended a straight of dictatorship. Your previous government did everything possible to fk up your rental market to the point of it having one of the worst salary-to-housing ratio in the world.

40 years ago you would’ve been unemployed cuz there was no private sector.

At the same time, with your background you wouldn’t even need to move to Germany/France/Nordics to fix your situation. You could move to fuckin Poland and you’d get your housing needs sorted out.

When I say “by choice”, for Portuguese folks it means staying in their country. You have an EU passport. Use it.

Exactly. You also sell your country to a Russian oligarch while on drugs. This becomes a huge meme and essentially 100% of the popualtion has heard the story. 5 years later you win the elections and form the government.

I’d say these elections are a landmark in democratic failures of modern history.

Austria is top 20 HDI, the popualtion is educated and informed, there’s a free press, living standard is one of the highest in Europe, there’s a strong social security system, unions, Vienna keeps winning at being the most liveable city in the world (with 25% of the Austrian population living there). The list goes on.

How is such election outcome possible?

Those are political statements aimed at the domestic voter.

We need a better asylum policy for political refugees. Unfortunately, the overall trend is in the opposite direction.

I either GoG or pirate these days. You want my money? Then respectfully sell me the product.

So you’re a party in power, you’re clearly extremist, you send the police to raid the organization that’s investigating your extremism and you steal all the evidence. Next year you win the elections.

And, so, apparently this is in the middle of Europe, not in Venezuela.

I wanna see those college graduates struggling with the bills. I know artists, PhD students, unqualified workers and else who have this problem to some degree. I don’t know anyone with a college degree and 3+ years of private sector experience struggling. We can debate wth is with the stagnant real wages, but certainly nobody with a decent degree is struggling. Or only by choice.

What I know contrary is people with any IT related degree, or businessy degrees, or STEM grads going into consulting, etc. And all those people earning enough to support a family of 3 way before hitting their 30s, yet being single and enjoying that income all by themselves . They then pay insane rents in the cities, travel, go out for dinner every other night, maintain some random portfolio of ETFs, buy groceries at organic-only groceries, and so on.

So, yeah, wages been stuck for a looong while. But if you struggle to make the ends meet with a college degree it’s on you.

Hi, yes, it’s me here, I vote for trump.

Not really, I’m a troll, and otherwise there are fukin zero trump voters here. You also ban anyone even trying to say anything pro trump.

So save yourself your keyboard war. You’re like a kid fighting with tall grass. Also, get the f out of the world news sub.

Esperanto’s equivalent would probably be Haskell.

Python is probably more like Spanish. Very easy basics, but then people from different regions of where it’s has spread out barely understand each other

Kamala has openly stated in the debate that she believes the only way is a two-state solution. Whether that’s realistic or not, it’s a pretty strong statement, and there’s some hope on the horizon. Unless until she actually gets to do anything, da Joe will sleep through the conflict turning into the entire region being nuked to the ground by the IDF.

Fix your fuckin democracy already instead of posting trump bad memes on lemmy.
