  • Years ago I spoke to a Turk in Germany who said something similar about eastern europeans migrating to Germany. His argument against them migrating was that there are too many migrants in Germany already and he felt his livelihood was threatened because of it.

    It actually makes sense from a a job security perspective (he was a cab driver).

    I am experiencing a similar feeling in a different setting. We bought an old house in a tiny village. Me and my wife we both love nature and moved out of the city into a forgotten place. In the oast few years this place became popular and now more and more people are buying land and building houses here. I get why they do it, i did it too. Its beautiful here. But i just dont want them here. Soon this place will be another rowded popular mountain spot. I hate to think about it. I want it to remain calm.


  • This is the way in my opinion. Proper anti-monopoly laws, solid progressive taxation, public (state) control of the “necessities” such as electricity and water, a working social security system, free education and healthcare while maintaining private medical practicioners and schools as an co-existing paid alternative.

    Now do this meme with any country in Eastern Europe that actually has experienced communism after ww2. Bonus point if you pick one where the USSR has placed their troops to “prevent regime change instigated by foreigh agents and protect the people from a civil war”.

    Slavic brothers came to aid us with their tanks. Lol.



  • Redditors?

    About diplomacy 101 My country has diplomatic relations with russia for example. We do however not cooperate in most aspects. In fact we are on the list of their enemies.

    My country also has diplomatic ties with israel. And we do cooperate. Mostly in education. My country is also a NATO member without a single US soldier or base present. Also opposed to current Gaza events.

    Vermin psycho state is a bit too much for me. I’d just stop the discussion here.


  • Well if you count decades old recognition of a state as a support of what is going currently in Gaza, i will not spend time to find any examples because on that premise you would be factually correct, but your premise is wrong. Past recognition of a state does not automatically mean support for its actions, which you seem to imply.

    Coopertation on anything else with NATO not really adressing the point, as we are discussing the situation in Gaza specifically, not Israels ties with NATO in general.










  • That is very USA centric, so I dont know the background enough there. The argument i am trying to make is against the “there is no justification” part of your statement. A similar statement would be there is no justification to kill anybody ever. Sounds all good and valid, until shit hits the fan properly. If you read my question as “killing civillians is fine” then that is an incorrect interpretation.
